Little Fistter	Posted - 2005.08.09 23:12:00 - [1] Quote: CCP stated in the patch notes that the reason for making the changes was to encourage ganging and teamplay etc. Well, after over a month of running complexes, after reading the posts here, and after first-hand experience and conversations with people I know and don't know in-game, CCP have done, or rather have created, exactely the opposite situation. CCP have created anger, animosity, rivalry, hatred, indignation and outright outrage at something that was supposed to enrichen the experience of Eve - online. I tried a complex and another player was ther, a newer player and I tried to cooperate with him and do the complex, we formed a gang and he took left and I took right, till we got to the end. I was using a smartbomb to ward off the swarming mob, and he came too close to me, and my damage to him caused Concord to immediately kill my ship. I petitioned but that was a waste of time as usual. Instead of admitting they had designed the game badly and apologizing, I was told that it was my fault and that I should not have used the smartbomb with another player around. OK, well I know to be careful with the smartbombs, but we were in a gang together and it was no act of agression. Anyway, the lesson I learned is: AVOID PLAYING WITH STRANGERS. CCP should remember that if the game is so lame as to make us unhappy, we will probably find another game we want to pay for.
