So four empire regions, connected low sec regions and of course null and wormhole systems.
Would you host an instance on your private server and invite friends to play, build, destroy and create?
Add a single player story line - Why not? Would you play it?

Interaction with people is by far the only selling point of EVE. Even if you are "soloer", you are still dealing with people on a daily basis. I have no idea what would you want to do in almost empty world tbh. |

No.
But, you can definitely put a positive spin on this thread:
You have 5 no's, that means of EVE's player base of 450,000 accounts, 399,995 are yes! or at least positively considering your idea. |

Gee. You've actually seen 450,000 people on line? How was the lag?

Play on the test server and avoid 6-CZ if you want to see how this feels. |

We were talking about this once. What if there were only four of us and we wanted to build up our private force of ships, even to do level 4 missions, we would be playing for months just to get the materials and the BPCs for the T2 gear. For a single player to fuel and run a small pos you would need around 11 hours of ice mining a month or so (if you get good ice, more if you use the high-sec junk... and first you would need to get the BPOs for the mining barges, which means being able to survive in low and null, etc, etc, etc... it would be a major grind that would suck without cheating.
One plus side, on a private server you could have your own logs and they might show something.

We highly recommend you start doing so now." --á CCP Ytterbium from:-áhttp://community.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&nbid=73530 |

As far as dumb ideas go, this is one of them.

In much the same way as I would play Civ5 if it had no map, no units and no tech tree, and in roughly the same way as I would play Battlefield without guns or vehicles and only with bots (but not againstGǪ no-one would be on the other side).
GǪin other words, no. Why play a game where the game bits have been removed?

Absolutely not. Without large quantities of other players, this game would suck. If you want a taste of what that is like, go roll around on the SISI server.
If we were talking about WoW then yes I would be all for private servers. In that game, the presence of other players is actually a detriment rather than a necessity. One spends the first 30 minutes after logging into WoW doing nothing but putting all the vocal idiots on block.
To sum up, players in EvE make the game. Without their presence you would have no market. You would have mothing to buy or fly. Taking space would be meaningless with no opposition. Trolling is like art. Anyone can finger paint, but it takes true talent to create a masterpiece. |

Playing on and running private servers are, by the way, very much in violation of the EULA. Although I'm not sure how that would be enforced.

So people log in to Eve because of the people they play with not the actual game mechanics? Actually in spite of the game mechanics.
I'm sure a lot of solo afk miners would love a single player environment.

To sell to buy orders. Do solo miners care who they sell to, so it may as well be npc buy orders.
In a slightly related theme, I'm sure there was a call for CCP to release a mission creator editor to the public and submit their creations. With the vast numbers of creative people who play Eve and the role play element, creating and designing mission arcs would be a boon for the pve players sick and tired of rescuing the damsel in distress.
