I personally choose not to have multiple accounts

People can name heaps of reasons when an alt is helpful in Eve.

If you're trying to say you're better because you don't, it's a bit silly.
Its a game people will play it how they play it. Mostly it's easier to do some things with an alt. Without alts it makes team work more important. Neither way is better than another.

Try not to make it look like you're crying because its unfair what others get away with, with more than one alt.

Well I'd say that an alt helps most when you're in a corp and not many people in that corp are online (timezone issues or some other reason). If you want to move a ship and need to scout or cyno alt.

I thought this was going to be another martyr complaining about EVE's lack of "solo" content.

I only have 1 account! I used to have 2 but when my money maker got the skills I needed I transferred it onto my other account and cancelled the extra

the ability to have alts really destroyed an entire section of the game, transporting. could be a really cool aspect having people who like transporting stuffs but since everybody has an alt that entire kick ass part of the game, its gone. i can name like 1 or 2 corps in this game that actually do transporting.

there could be a LOAD of transporting corps but as i said before, alts destroyed that part of the game.

Just wanted to share a few thoughts and see if discussion can emerge.


How about RF (Red Frog) doing freighters hauls with neutral alts in NPC corps? Don't you just want to find em and blow them up anyway?


Thoughts?

You too huh.

Alara is my Main and Only.

I had a separate account at one point, but after a while I got rid of it because I just didn't have the time or energy for another character. That, and alt+tabbing every 30 seconds made me want to bludgeon a puppy.

I personally choose not to have multiple accounts...

Mass mining -
How bout a guy running a couple miners and a hauler all by himself?

If you're not mining like this, you're wasting your time.

In PVP that make all the difference with all the neutral scouting and buffing and repping. It's not game breaking but for me that should be addressed, even if it costs a few accounts for CCP.

I'm gonna go on a limb and say maybe it IS game breaking.

Is this CCP's fault, or the players fault?

I think one of the main reasons it's so widespread is that most activities in EVE don't require you to perform a lot of actions. Take a 3D shooter, you have to be concentrated all the time so there simply isn't any opportunity to play another character at the same time, let alone three. In EVE things are far more slower and automated.

Why would a game company create so many parts of a game that people obviously don't want to play?

Don't come crying to us when we shoot down your ship because you jumped through blind.
