I've realized that being below the great 10 mill skill mark makes life in eve very difficult for a new player. Almost all of the best corporations are looking for pilots that can fly BC 'Your character must be 10+' is the standard reply. I was lucky that I found a corporation which did allow newer players to enter mind.
Things I have found are:
As a new player It is very hard to make isk, even in low sec. And PVP seems to be highly based on big expensive ships and lots of skills.
Its hard for me to understand why CCP does this to its new players. In most games there are fun things to do even as a new player and life is not so restricting. It could be that the current percentage of new player/veteran players has gotten a lot wider since I started trying eve. It is also hard to fit a good ship when items are much higher prices and sell for as much as -90% below market value?
I why doesn't CCP lower the sp needed to fly more powerful ships to their fullest. This would mean that a new player would be able to do the same things as a veteran player and eve would become more about the player than how long they have kept their subscription going for. |

A 1 day old player couldn't fit enough tank to fly FW. It also takes at least a destroyer to fit the mods that are able to kill the 20 npc ships which spawn around these complexes. The player would also loose a lot of ships because they do not know which plexes to go to. The most expensive ships in the LP stores require you to spend over 5 mill isk to buy a ship and convert it into a faction ship.
Stop spreading these lies. |

The reason "bigger ships take more SP" is because they take more skill to fly. I would caution everyone against believing that "bigger is better" in Eve Online, since I've seen battleships killed by frigates (solo).
I don't believe some thing like a rifter or even a Merlin could destroy a battle ship. It took me and 3 others more than 5 min to destroy a npc battle ship in low sec.

Is it better this way? I dunno, I rather enjoy it. That said, we'd have a whole lot more players if it were more "theme park" ish, but what sort of players would they be? I remember WoW Trade Chat. While Jita is bad, it's not THAT bad.
It seems like your saying that the game should be dumbed down, I'm not saying this at all. I'm saying that a very proficient player could be killed by a noob who bought a 20 mill skill points character and has 1 bill isk just because the noob player flys a t1 frigate which does 90 dps and the vet player is flying a t2 frigate that does 200 dps and has a perma tank. Does this sound like a difficult game? |

So either:
1.) A fail troll
2.) A completely brainless MMO player who wants EVE to be WoW in space.
Either way, not bothered with you. Loads of genuine new players with genuine questions/problems to help.

2,377,462 sp  I played eve for about a month in 2010 then joined again recently.
Lost Greybeard thanks for your long response, I'm currently training to be able to fly a cruiser effectively , it should take me about a month. So I'm not just sitting around complaining. |
