What I get a kick out of is, every one complains when something changes in the game that effects thier play style, and when it doesn't effect them but does others, they say the people that are complaining are whiners.
Not everyone play Eve for the same reason, I love Eve for its realizm, been to 0.0 space, lost more ships there then I can count, done the PVP, done the mining, now doing Agent missions, why, cause I can do them solo and not have to depend on anyone else, not that grouping with anyone is a problem. Like alot of you, I'll wait to see what the changes actualy are, I'll see how many ships I loose getting ganked in low secure areas trying to do high level agent missions, I feel like I am being forced to play a style I do not want to play at this time, once the Gankers know the Agent routes, they will have a blast playing Eve while causing others like myself to have to keep the same ship setup for PVP instead of a setup for doing missions.
It seemed like Eve always had something for all the different play styles, players making their choice in what they did in the game. People want to be Pirates, so be it, that is their choice, not a thing wrong with it, but that is not my choice at this time, it just seems that in the quest to force people out into Deeper space they are making it harder for people that do not want to do PVP stuff avoid it. I think its going to change alot, the whole ship setup used for missions will be useless because everyone is going to have to be forced to run PVP type setups, which is not as good for missions.
So I'll be waiting to see the changes, if I do not like them, you wont see me complaining on here, I'll just drop my 3 accounts because I won't play a game that is not fun to me.
Removing instas is less of a play style change and an adapt type of question and more of a bordom question.
Everything in eve has some sort of time as a punishment. Sort of a sit in the corner childs punishment.
Want to move your pos? Better have a full night. Want to change your ship setup at a pos quite sometime there. Shoot someone? Wait before you can jump. Change ships? Well gotta wait to change again.
Most of these things are reasonable and can be delt with. They dont come up with everything you do in the game.
But instas are the only thing that speed up the most boring thing in eve and that is travel. Be that travel to a belt to mine travel to a dock, or travel to a gate.
If they replaced instas with something like an over head map of the system you are in and you could zoom in and out of said map and pin point where on that map you wanted to warp in? Ok that might work then eliminate instas. With that you would need to give the ability to still warp to the member of your gang or see where your gang members are on the over head map as well.
Anyway I have no doubt that ccp will not just eliminate instas without a viable alternative.
