Cynthia Nezmor Nezmor's Golden Griffins 113	Posted - 2013.01.13 08:07:00 - [61] - Quote Ares Desideratus wrote: How come when solo PvP comes up it's always under the guise of Factional Warfare in low-sec? Because pretending you are solo with your OGB Loki, that shows up as neutral while you show up as war target is much more easy than pretending it in highsec, where you need your Basilisks/Guardians in the same corp now. Or in nullsec, where it is obvious that if out of the 78 in local, only 76 is "blue" than the "solo pvper" has an alt.

Every now and then I try a few new things, but generally IMO eve needs a companion game like league of legends (LoL). Pretty much what I do is 1) Log into eve, roam for fights. 2) If 15-30 minutes go by and there's nothing to shoot, go play LoL 3) During the LoL game people will usually hop in and tell me when something is happenning, or I read intel channels/quickly undock between games and take a look around. If I find something interesting, or I just want a break from LoL, goto 1), else back to Lol!

I heard you can even waste your isk on gambling sites, and maybe some eve online hold em game is out there. You can also play "kill boards online", or "ts3 online" when you dont need to actually do anything at all, just chat with your buddies. There are so many options to evade pressing that nasty undock button, who wants to do it, its so dangerous.

If they just gave us a notification system where we could see where plexes are being captured we would easilly get 4-7 decent fights in 2 hours. They decided to keep the hide and seek pve plexing mechanic, were you just wander around hoping to run into someone to fight.

Lolwut? Looking at your killboard, I have far more kill activity than you, far more solo kills than you, and I'm even being generous and leaving your daredevil fits out of this conversation. And you're accusing me of being afraid to undock when I go play LoL when there's nothing to shoot at?

Fw is incredibly dense for small gang fights vs anywhere else in eve, possibly save for rvb. This isn't a game where you can literally fight 24/7 (except for special occasions e.g. taking Rakapas, the major squid home system that took around the clock operations). Once you have won at pvp and there's no-one around for a little while, you can farm ISK in eve. Or you can spin buttons if occupancy warfare is your primary goal (while making ISK!). Or, if you have enough ISK my solution is to go play another game until there's something else to shoot at. Alternatively, if all you want out of eve is constant, neverending fights - there's a special system on the Test server with beacons where everyone warps and constantly fights with pretty much free ships. Don't know the system, and I've never done that, but people talk on the forums all the time. It's probably somewhere in the Test Server forum in a sticky the system that allows ffa pvp.

Fw is incredibly dense for small gang fights vs anywhere else in eve, possibly save for rvb. . I agree with this and have said that myself. (but see the bit about being a pirate post retribution) But the rest of eve is horribly boring. I wouldn't even consider playing if it weren't for faction war. chatgris wrote: This isn't a game where you can literally fight 24/7 .... It should be, or at least there should be room in the eve universe for this option. FW should be the way to do this for those who want it. We are joining the largest persistant wardec in the game. We should be able to fight 24/7! CCP could have easilly done this by simply letting us know where and when complexes are being attacked so we can get right to the fighting instead of roaming around wasting time. chatgris wrote: Once you have won at pvp and there's no-one around for a little while, you can farm ISK in eve.

Don't know the system, and I've never done that, but people talk on the forums all the time. It's probably somewhere in the Test Server forum in a sticky the system that allows ffa pvp.. I am not interested in meaningless fights. I did the rvb thing and the arranged fight bit. I want a true war context. Both sides should do the best they can to win and that should require allot of pvp. I don't want a system where you can either choose to fight for sov or choose to pvp. I want to feel that I am fighting for something. I want the losses to count. All of this would be offered if they just would have the complexes give a notice when they are attacked. That way I and everyone else in faction war, can get right to the fighting. The isk you make may be enough to sustain the very slow paced pvp we have now. But if they notified us of plexes being entered there would be allot more loses and that isk would actually be used up. That is why it is also important that the economics are not horribly skewed. chatgris wrote: The main reason I'm still in eve are the killmails - generally pvp is fun and available in a lot of games, but what makes eve different for me is that it's very enjoyable to look back at every kill and loss and see the history, see every single module and item on the ship, see the points accrued where you took on the odds, see how your enemy flies theirs ships and come up with counters/just take their ideas and adapt. I agree kms are pretty neat with eve. But I want a bit more. In the end I need that context for the fights other than just basically a series of arranged duels or random scuffles. CCP are the game developers they can push fw to the next level by giving notifications of when plexes are taken. But they chose to keep the actual sov warfare a mind numbing hide and seek pve game. I will keep pushing them to change that until all my accounts run out. Now if you just want killmails then I would say you would be better off as a pirate. I think you can still open plexes and fight in them but you will be able to fight both sides. Plus, did I mention, you will be able to put ship replacements wherever you want?

So when you add up Cynthia Nezmor, Alexandra Sarn and Angelina Solette you might get an idea of a fraction of the kills he gets cuz we all know those are just the alts anyone knows about after flying for a few days around Aset...... The guy uses Two DDs and a cruiser at once to fight gangs of ships and holds an 80% efficiency..... I hope to one day be that good

Quite sadly, he has to, because no-one will have him in their corp. The self fulfilling jerkecy: 1) Jerk is unable to partake with others in what should be primarily a social game. 2) Isolation leads to increased Jerky-ness 3) Return to step 1)

Broken as that may be.
