One time, I was fighting this guy named Dagan, and everyone told me he was kind of hard, but I just flew right up on him with my little frigate and shoved some void charges down his throat and he went bada boom like that.

I completely agree. this is the trouble with all mmos...it takes time to get what you want and when you get it the devs devalue it. It's why games like world of warcraft have lost so many players and it will happen to eve too...much to my disgust.
Figured this was the MMo to see me to my grave...starting to think otherwise since some of the "improvements" that we have had recently and are soon to get.
Srry this was a negative post. Doom is coming. Break out the shrouds. |

This is just you getting trapped in your personal choices and negativity and not how reality works. If your goal was to fly something specific, rebalancing can't affect that. If it was to fly the most overpowered ship, do some chest beating and to pwn others, tough luck. If it was to fly something specific and be effective while doing it, you can still do that. How you feel is something we get every time something is changed in this game and what usually happens is a few dozen people rage quit because of changes to the game, but the actual game is almost always better afterwards and those changes tend to open up a lot of new options or shake up the status quo.
Constant change also isn't a problem with MMOs. It's a requirement for their continued survival and thriving. If you keep overpowered things the way they are, the game becomes stale and people leave. If you just add new powerful things and don't rebalance existing content, you make old content redundant and can actually reduce the amount of relevant content in your game and/or just increase the mandatory grind people have to do to reach the competative gear/content. Piling up new things on top of broken old content also creates troubles, since the foundation you're building on is already broken and constantly creating enough new content for the players isn't really feasible.
The sensible thing to do is to occasionally step back, look at the big picture and make a plan. Then with that plan in mind you make a balancing pass to make sure all of the existing content stays relevant and has a competative place in your grand vision. This is what CCP is currently doing and while we're just in the early stages of tiericide and the related rebalancing, so far the results have been great compared to the situation before the changes. Naturally we have had rage quitters and will continue to have them, but the game is again better after the changes and keeps on chugging along like normal. |

This one time, I didn't log in...
I went outside and it was sunny. Birds were chirping! Living, breathing people smiled at me and said "Hi you must be our new neighbor!". (I've lived here many years  )
It was a happy day though. |

Good news story?
It's SUCH fun derping on those same angry poasters who do not exist in Eve. They're just Eve players.
No. Seriously it IS fun!! Can't wait to log in when I get up and derp some more. I DREAM about it.

Just stay in EGD for a while, resistance is futile. It made me cynical and highly sarcastic. Enjoy the show.

Ok, I'll give you a real happy story - EVE style happy story.
Sitting in voice comms quite a while back, we had a miner there who was out mining in a Retriever.
We're just talking about various things in EVE when he goes "wait, a destroyer just pulled up and ... He's trying to gank me!"
We're going "where, it's probably too late but ..." then he starts laughing. "CONCORD! The guy failed!"
So he goes on to describe the setup and how it happened, the system, etc... We're chatting normal again and about 15 min later he goes "I don't believe it - the guy is back. This time in a cruiser!" - uph... He starts talking fast and then... "ha! concordonked! And I still have half my armor!".
So we are talking and he's laughing and chatting excitedly about the situation and all that when, about 15 min after the last attempt... "you guys aren't going to believe this but he's back - AGAIN - and in the same type of cruiser!"
Long and short of it - he loses his retriever to the ganker but is laughing so hard about the guy losing 3 ships trying to blow up his little mining barge... You see he'd never bothered to dock-up and repair or the like.
The happy part: The ganker finally gets his gank completed successfully and the guy who lost his ship was having so much fun laughing and telling the tale about all the fail...
He really didn't care that he ended up losing his mining barge - especially when he went back, got another ship and looted the wrecks. It seems the first cruiser to try him was fit with cheap guns but the second one had T2 guns on it and he got back his mining lasers along with the stuff from the gankers wrecks. Overall he about broke even but had a wonderful laugh - probably so did the ganker figuring he'd caught some "AFK miner!" who happened to just be busy chatting on voice. |
