And the only remedy I can see to this is a massive influx of card carrying Orca fleets invading 1.0 space where there are no belt rats, to mine in safety, which thereby shafts every new player just starting the game out of any chance to make some money from mining without risking themselves.
I'm not talking about carebears here, I'm talking about ripping off the brand new prospective subbers getting inconvenienced as they're JUST starting out on a trial, to the point where they all say, 'Screw this, if they're just going to let all these guys with years of experience keep me from even having a chance at starting out!' Boom...no sub-4-CCP.
WTH ... are you guys deliberately TRYING to lose thousands of players (and ensure trial players decide not to sub)? Do you have the millions of subs WoW has to be able to recover from a mass exit a few of these rules will create, I wonder. Hi there. You appear to have missed the very first post in this thread and the dev blog that it links to.
I'm going to back up Zandalar just a bit here. There were many questions about the PVE aspect of these timers Masterplan missed or chose to not begin to respond to until post 883. So while I think the wording was a little uncouth, I do understand ZandalarGÇÖs frustration.
I also agree with those who have expressed frustration with the timers seeming to VERY heavily favor the aggressors and punish people who have real world obligations that might take them away from the computer. I donGÇÖt care about the insults I will get from pirates, I play Eve because running missions help me unwind and I can leave them at any time if something comes up.
I have a lot of issues with the direction this game is heading in December including the loss of viability of any Caldari cruiser and the new thought that you cannot let your real life issues allow you to log for a bit, unless you want to have you 1bil isk ship that you worked your ass off to get destroyed by a lucky scan or some other random occurrence. Luckily for all of us Eve is not real life, and we can simply not subscribe if we donGÇÖt like the changes. Until that point comes, I will continue to play the current game. |
