When is the patch turning Eve into a pvp-arena?

First, and foremost, Eve is dominated by Nullsec. Their culture, tactics, and influence is impossible to counter or side-step. Anyone who attempts to do so is curb-stomped and eliminated. Either you play by their rules, or you can take your toys and go home --the epitome of playground politics.

When is the patch turning Eve into a pvp-arena?

After playing Eve for almost seven years, I have come to an ultimate conclusion. I'm the type of person that wants to find my own path, and not follow under anyone else's rules (nullsec blocks). After several attempts to achieve the goal of building an Alliance and claiming sovereignty on its own terms I've realized this is impossible.

Why? Two main reasons.

First, and foremost, Eve is dominated by Nullsec. Their culture, tactics, and influence is impossible to counter or side-step. Anyone who attempts to do so is curb-stomped and eliminated. Either you play by their rules, or you can take your toys and go home --the epitome of playground politics.

Secondly, CCP is in love with nullsec. All the members of the CSM are nullsec clowns bowing to the whims of their maniacal masters. CCP's never-ending love affair with the whole damn thing leads them to screw anyone or anything who has an alternative agenda. They incessantly push everyone towards nullsec, while having no consideration for the individual or for the small corporation or alliance. Either you join a mega-alliance and become cannon-fodder or you really have no viable long-term path in Eve.

So, I ask in earnest CCP, when are you going to make all of Eve nullsec. When is the patch turning Eve into a pvp-arena? Stop dicking around, and do it, or give the rest of us options. Consider the individual, the small corporation, and the small alliance. Not everyone is interested in doing the bidding of a maniacal bloated psychopath and his personality cult.

For me, it really doesn't matter, it's the last straw. Subscription Cancelled.

Cue the, "Can I have your stuff lines". No, you can't have it, f*ck off.

Stealth "The fourteen guys I got together couldn't take sov" thread.

You forgot to say "Pubbie". Your master won't be pleased.

His master will lock him in a corner somewhere for a week, then all will be well.

Now seriously, can I have your stuff? It's not like you'll need it anymore.

Anyone who doesn't give away their stuff is still leaving the door open to coming back. Doesn't show commitment if you ask me.

You know what would be a fun game mechanic? High-sec wages war on 0.0 with the help of Concord to expand High-Sec space.

In other words, you suck so bad at this game that your only hope of defeating us is with the help of the most powerful NPC which is designed to be invincible and kill everything within 30 seconds.

Which is why EvE really isn't a sandbox game.

Nullsec wouldn't influence a player in a sandbox game. Same with high or low sec.

PvE and PvP wouldn't influence each other, as you're allowed to do your own thing.

EvE is more a deus ex machinia game. Devs dictate content and how it's played. They set up the rules, and tomorrow can wipe the slate clean. They can choose to ignore the game for years. They can choose to influence the game or even certain parties (as history showed they actually did).

That much external control is not a sandbox, it's an illusion of one.

You don't seem to understand the concept of a sandbox game.

You did not actually articulate your problem in any way.

Also, you mentioned that you had made several attempts to build an alliance and claim sov - a strictly Nullsec activity - and then went on to complain about how Nullsec dominates the game.

It seems like you're basically saying that you're bad at the game, and it's someone else's fault.

In other words, you suck so bad at this game that your only hope of defeating us is with the help of the most powerful NPC which is designed to be invincible and kill everything within 30 seconds.

There is a difference between overcoming adversity, and banging your head against the wall because you can't walk though it.

Your statement is an over simplification.
