Last time here was some big rumor about 2500+ people during fleet batte, people were exited about this, personaly i dont like large fights hoverwer i think they are cool and people love them, would be cool if battle like in Asakai become normal in EvE or at last happens more often like 2-3 time per month not like frist time since years, and only because of titan pilot mistake.
This whole battle was ignited by mistake, and happens only because of goon mistake, in normal cases large battles with 1000+ involed happens few time per year only in case when some alliance decide to atack other.
To the point, alliances and peope are lazy ( lack of big battles) because of broken sov and war mechanic this give them feeling (here no sense to fight on big scale in blob war) in big perspective large battle and total destruction are rare things, in fact this whole supper aliances are lazy expoliters who expolit broken war mechanic most of them prefer carebearing and safe game style, years long, and join battle only on occasion of if they realy forced to big fights.

Get yourself a titan and you, too, can initiate battles that involve over 2800 people at one time.
Let us know when you're there.

I'm going to tell you what everyone who actually lives out in nullsec is thinking:
You're a hisec mission runner who has no idea what he's talking about. Nobody, and I mean nobody, wants to have fights like Asakai several times a month just for fun. You're also implying that we should fight to entertain you.
Shove off. |

I know why. because you got title in game "Pos fueler" which mean you are carebar in null space.
FIY, Im here from years , i start play eve before you create your character i was part of some sov wars long time ago, another idiot with big ego who think he know more about this game than others, espetialy than carebears from empire, post like your show only that you are wannable bad ass.

The nullbears don't want to risk their geopolitical power they fought so hard for. The thing is this is this still a game, means stuff is here to be destroyed not hoarded, hoarding is not fun. Shooting things that are no real existential threats may be entertaining for a while but it lacks that little extra thrill we all love about this game.
Once the big nullblocks realise that they can have pleasure, entertainment, amusement, thrill and lots of adrenalin kicks beyond their immagination.. that will be one of the glorious moments no one forgets. A goal worth losing everything for and even then, rebuilding an empire from the nothingness the dust of war leaves behind is just as satisfying. This ladies and gentleman, this is EVE.
Sadly everyone got a hidden little carebear somewhere deep inside, this parasite must be found and eradicated. Either that or CCP will force it, so don't worry, sooner or later null will burn. |

Not everyone plays EVE for fun. Even if you were a member of a major alliance and did play for fun, you have a responsibility to those of your comrades who are rock-hard for things like territory control and ever-expanding wallets. That's part of sharing the sandbox.
They have won the null game as it has been designed, and you can't change what drives these entities. Your hope lies in CCP wanting to get players interested in vying for sov space again, and adjusting the playing field in some regard. |

Its not about nerf , but about fact that some game aspects are worng, and maybe people need a bit other game mechanic, but is ok, if most players are agains changes or they prefer existed game mechanic that alow alliances to contunue thier lazy syle, my post is wrong, so lest go back to our daily lazy style, and enjoy eve like it is.

Sound like you manage 4 subcapital fleets every day, come on, stop with your drama, and suggest that large battle and FC sacrifice to fleets happens few time per week. EvE isn't game, its style of living. |

No, the point is this: If this is something you want to see happen then work towards making it happen instead of making posts on the forum.
This is EVE. In EVE all it takes is some motivation to make things happen.
If you're upset about really large Alliances and don't think they are doing enough then, hey, instead of writing a forum post moaning why not start doing something about it in game?
You can initiate stuff in the game just like anyone else can. But, instead of doing that, you come to the forums and complain.
I'd rather see players in EVE actively pursue their dreams instead of forum warrioring.

What wrong with you, forum warrioring ? you are slanderer and nothing more, you try to persuade other with your wired talk, again why focusing on me instead of theme, stop with this personal atack.
"If this is something you want to see happen then work towards making it happen instead of making posts on the forum"
Im ordinary player who got zero impact on this game mechanic , alliances got thousands of people but in fact they got zero impact on game mechanic which make them (in general) lazy carebears.
Answer to me where these all xxxx titans in game are they destroyed or in safe assets? i tell you where, in safe assets which never come to usage, because of this broken part and infinity isk sources which offer more than people realy need. EvE isn't game, its style of living. |

I'd rather see players in EVE actively pursue their dreams instead of forum warrioring. And I suppose you believe I can just go and claim the latest bit of Gaea vomit for myself and no one can stop me. There is such a thing as barriers to entry and the biggest one in any situation is the previous groups. Here in EVE the fact is that the current coalitions by their actions display they are not interested in having new groups enter the field. They will either crush them or friend them such that they cant do anything. There is no ability to get over the barriers and actually compete head to head.
Now lets take whs as an example. Same rules as null but with the benefits people ask for of no bridging no local and such. I have yet to find any of them ***** on about how people are going in on their turf. Instead they either go and kill them or move somewhere else. New groups move in and old groups move out. In fact more pvp is done in whs than in null. Think about that. |

People take this game way too seriously, that's why nothing happens in Null Sec anymore. There are people who are literly getting paid to play Eve but large alliances, who treat the finances and politics of this game as serious as one would in the real world. Thousands of real world dollars get traded and blow up in this game on a regular basis. Its ceased being a game and has become far too real for far too many people and when **** is real, just like real life, it becomes less fun.
People used engage each other in Null Sec because of silly rivalries and some channel smack talk, its all it took.. because it used to be a game. Suddenly now we have to "deal with situations" and "consider the seriousness of events".. and other borderline ****** things to consider in a video game. There was a time even I remember when a BoB member would fly into a system and we shot at them just because we wanted to and we didn't give a **** about our alliances or corporate CEO's approval. Today before you can shoot at someone it has to be approved by a bunch of douche bag nerds who think they are celebrities.
Too much douchbaggery.. I miss the old days when you could trash talk someone and kick start a month long war. The reality of Eve is that, if you don't love it like it is today, you should probobly go ahead and unsub.-á |

Haven't read the whole thread, but this line caught my eye. WTF, why would someone continute playing if it wasn't fun for them? Responsibilities? In a video game? Wow, to get to that stage where playing is more of a chore than it is fun, means you need to get your head sorted and your priorities straight.
Not talking about YOU specifically, but people who don't find it 'fun' to play and carry on as if they head a gun to their head forcing them to do something they don't enjoy.

Nullsec has a lot of PvP. The basic mechanics of PVP in Null are fun (unlimited escalation, no game mechanical punishment for aggression, bubbles, etc.), and nobody who lives in null is really complaining about them (well, there are the AFK cloak whines, but ).
The 2 biggest problems with Null are Sov Mechanics and Carrying Capacity (i.e. livability), along with the broader (i.e. not strictly limited to null) issue of Alliance income sourcing. Fixing the first two would almost certainly increase the absolute number of ships destroyed in Null (better Sov Mechanics = More fights over Sov instead of "Blue or Fight to the Death," better carrying capacity = more targets ratters actually living in the space they own). This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.
"the risk of having your day ruined by other people is the cornerstone with which EVE was built and we want to keep that (infact, this is much more representative of the consensus opinion within CCP)." -CCP Solomon |

Unfortunatly this is what Eve has become and I would say for the large majority of players in particular null secers. Its not uncommon for a Null Sec alliance to require their players to set alarm clocks, skip work to run ops and require people to play marathon waiting sessions as nothing happens. People try to blame the Sov mechanics, and perhaps they are to blame for much of this type of gameplay, but I think these days its far more the leadership of the circle jerk alliances who refuse to fight each other that's the problem. Way too much diplomacy, negotiation and bloc building going on and that has nothing to do with mechanics and everything to do with people effectively allowing their gameplay to be controlled by a bunch of douchbags like Mittani.. I mean christ the CEO of the largest alliance in the game doesn't even actually play Eve and hasn't for a few years now. Why would anyone want to have anything to do with a leader of an alliance who has no interest in the game other than to manipulate politics from outside of the game.
Its gotten really stupid these days. Its why Null Sec is effectively dying in terms of anyone actually giving a crap about it. Most of these alliance blocs will eventually fall apart not because of wars but out of sheer boredom. Null Sec Sov Warefare is no longer the end game in Eve, its really become nothing more than a big time sink with little action. Blob fights hardly create entertaining gameplay.
The best gameplay in Eve right now is small focused corps that group up and fly together in which case it doesn't matter what they do. There is nothing like being in Low Sec running an op with 6-7 of your buddies while on TS. I used to run with some null sec alliances and really it was probobly the most boring experiance I have end in my 7 year career in Eve, even more boring than mining. The reality of Eve is that, if you don't love it like it is today, you should probobly go ahead and unsub.-á |

1. No, that would be very uncommon (as in: I've never, ever been asked, let alone required, to alarm clock an op, skip work, etc).
2. It has nothing to do with the leaders, it has everything to do with the fact that 1+1>1.
3. "No interest in the game except to influence the game"? What an odd sentiment. How can one have no interest in a game except for having an interest in affecting the game and providing content for those he leads? Who are you to say that politicking is not "playing the game?" This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Of course it has to do with the leaders. Why haven't all of the leaders backstabbed each other and put personal glory ahead of some silly alliance? Why hasn't every blob of blues torn itself apart over greed/petty grudges/etc? Where is the ambition to LEAD and not simply follow someone else and keep the safe easy profits coming in? This is EVE, not Polite and Profitable Commerce Online. |

in all hoensty im pretty sure there is not that much in the way of fighting over sov is because NO ONE and i mean NO ONE likes the very painfull "Timer grind" it takes to make your way through someone elses sov, shooting a single structure for a good hour or so is not so much fun as some folks may thing, would rave have it out with rookie ships at dawn tbh ... would be much more fun :-P |

The basic mechanics of PVP in Null are fun (unlimited escalation, no game mechanical punishment for aggression, bubbles, etc.), and nobody who lives in null is really complaining about them (well, there are the AFK cloak whines, but  ). The 2 biggest problems with Null are Sov Mechanics and Carrying Capacity (i.e. livability), along with the broader (i.e. not strictly limited to null) issue of Alliance income sourcing. Fixing the first two would almost certainly increase the absolute number of ships destroyed in Null (better Sov Mechanics = More fights over Sov instead of "Blue or Fight to the Death," better carrying capacity = more targets ratters actually living in the space they own).

While I respect your low sec play, at least according to Eve kill, you seem to have very little null-sec experience and very little combat experience to be throwing around the term "care-bear". Unless of course this is an alt in which case post with your main.
Back to the topic - yes the war mechanic is broken. However the lack of destruction is not due to "player laziness" but rather the fact that sov grinding is a painful, arduous task requiring multiple alarm-clock ops since logic dictates your target will set his timers for your weakest time zone. So null sec players now hate sov grinding with a passion and you would too once you've done it a few times. And as for fleet battles, everyone loves those. What we don't love is lag, or the present incarnation of lag re-named "TiDi". When you've fought enough with 10% Tidi in battles you will realize how frustrating it is. Frustrating to the point that you try to avoid large battles also.
Therefore player "laziness" is not really the problem, but rather that people play Eve for FUN because it's a game, and both large fleet battles and sov grinding are NOT FUN. |

Because they're not irrationally vindictive?
What personal glory is there in dissolving an coalition in order to fight among yourselves with the prize being to have everyone's empire destroyed by that guy over there?
Rational people tend to work together because 1+1>1.
The real world is similar. You're basically asking why NATO hasn't started shooting at each other, why OPEC still controls much of Oil Pricing, and why every country is not at war with its neighbors literally all the time. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Well, not those who actually own the type of ship you're interested in seeing brawl anyway. You're also implying that we should fight to entertain you.
Shove off.
Are you not entertained? It is the greatest inequality to try to make unequal things equal. |

Those types of fights use to be more common, doesn't seem so much now. Granted I haven't been paying much attention lately. |

I realise that large battles isn't fun in every case also would be cool if CCP focus on small pvp features scale etc, because a lot people like small pvp, but i talk only in general, here to much stuf just wainting to explode while more dynamic and spontaneous alliances decisions, instead of months longs blobs or boring aliance exist (which result to bulid more and more titans which never come to usage) beause of directors strategy or thier permission to atack others one time per year, this should be fixed,
Meny people hate these who avoid big fights or any fight it self, but before you judge other look at your self and big alliances... EvE isn't game, its style of living. |
