Think of it like mining an asteroid that needs 300 people to mine and still takes an hour to mine. Only all 300 of you need to mine it three times to get anything out of it, and you can only mine it once every 2 days. Then consider the fact that there are 300 other people that don't want you to mine it.
Then factor it in the fact you need to do this whole several times to take a system, dozens of times to take a constellation, and hundreds of times to take a region.
Do you see how it's hard work now? Taking and holding sov isn't as simple as putting a flag down. It's about shooting structures :sovjoke:

That's not entirely accurate. OK, BoB are dead, they were taken apart by Goonswarm and friends, with a little help from a director level defector within BoB. The whole alliance woke up one morning to find someone had pressed the big red button marked "do not touch" and disbanded it. For once the big red button pusher wasn't CCP Tuxford, satisfied?

How can an alliance hold space and yet not live there and then rent it out? Surely the game is about gaining space, and keeping hold of it? The amount of nullsec thats now become rental space is just crazy, OK OK, some might say, well we are getting more people into nullsec, we are allowing people that couldnt get into nullsec a chance to. OK we will charge them stupidly high prices but meh we dont want that space anyway. and herein lies the problem. Why arent nullsec alliances exploiting the mining riches, the anomolies etc to make there isk like everyone else has to, instead of being lazy so and so's? Really they should be having mass mining ops, or large anomaly bashing ops instead of being carebears (which ironically they moan about high sec carebears) these are 10x worse. They wont do anything, they cry about their passive moon income being nerf because they simply cannot be bothered to go an actually make isk. Is this really where eve has gone and going? I mean yeah live in a region and have a few renters to make that extra income like some alliance do, but look at Northern Associates for instance (N3) http://evemaps.dotlan.net/alliance/Northern_Associates.I mean what 10 regions or more just PURELY to rent. Surely it cant be just me that sees something wrong here.

He does. He flies around Deklein every once in a while in a bomber while trying to "troll" us in local chat. We make fun of him for a while in our intel channels (because it makes him mad that we have intel channels) and then somebody will pop him on a gate (because he thinks warp stabs make him immune to bubbles) and he goes away for a little while.

I thought decloaking, as well as holding tackle on supercapitals, are things we are Bad At. There are no goons. The goons' 0.0 dream is over.

I don't not HAVE those characters anymore. This is the only character that I HAVE and play EVE with. How did being in a group bring you guys any closer to "winning" that point? I would even say that being in a group HURT your chances of arriving at the truth in that instance, because rather than look at yourselves and try to do better, you just echoed what the other members of the group were saying.
One of balancing dynamics in the real world between large numbers and small numbers is that if your large group doesn't have the truth on their side (or are using the wrong tactic or strategy), then they are just wrong in large numbers (or die in large numbers).
Another balancing dynamic is that, because the world is so large and time is always moving forward and things happen so quickly, it is nigh impossible for a group, even an enormous one like the United States of America or even China, to always defend everything they claim sovereignty over.
Another balancing dynamic is that my force, my horses, my bullets, my bombs, my VX nerve agent, can also kill my friends and even myself.
Another balancing dynamic is that I only know the things that I, an individual, have come to know/understand. Now, I can befriend someone to fix my car or pay someone or even learn to fix it myself, but I may end up stuck waiting in the rain on the side of the road if I haven't done that BEFORE my car breaks down.
There are probably a lot more such balancing dynamics in life. Maybe you could think of a few, or maybe you could try to predict what would happen if such dynamics were "nerfed" or "buffed". What would the world look like, then? |

Yeep wrote:Holding space in Eve requires being [elite] because thats the bar that has been set by the people who currently hold it. They are able to set the bar that high because they employ a lot of people who are very good at individual things. You as an individual do not have the time to become as good at all the things so your options are be mediocre at a bunch of things or find some allies who are good at the things you are not.
There's a few problems with this argument.
1. I might actually BE elite. 2. The current sovereignty holders of a space might not have set the bar very high for taking their space. They may simply not have people who are good at the things they need to be good at. (I'm looking right at you, Test Alliance.) 3. You assume becoming good at activity X requires the same amount of time for both player A and player B, but maybe one is simply elite and gets better faster. 4. The main flaw in your argument is that I don't have to do ANYTHING better than the sovereignty holder. I only have to be capable of DISRUPTING what the sovereignty holder is doing to hold sovereignty. Is there a practical way to do that (within the game) given the current game mechanics besides resorting to brute force and sheer numbers? |

If someone actually wants to claim it and use it you can simply bridge to that system your not using, wipe out the smaller guys, then abandon it again. Locking up huge amounts of space with no ongoing effort.
Been exploring null sec lately, jump after jump of sov claimed systems, not a single person in any of them. Can't shoot anything, can't damage anything, most things are invulnerable, the rest are millions of hp's.
Stupid hand holding system. Its not wonder people are exploiting the weaknesses in the system to rent out huge amounts of space that they really couldn't hold if they had to defend and maintain it properly. If they couldn't defend it one of the other null sec alliances would have taken it. They pay a maintenance fee on each system monthly. And you underestimate the logistics side of it. A lot of the systems are held to provide income and provide places for staging towers, jump bridges and things like that. You won't see people in every system all the time, but that doesn't mean they are unused. I think the thing you miss here, which a lot of people seem to miss, is that you are a single individual. You will always have a disadvantage to a 10000 man alliance. If they balanced out the game so you could pose a threat to a 10000 man alliance, then the game would be WAY out of balance. It would then favor the individual over the team player, and destroy the main reason for EVE to be an MMO If you want to be an individual and do well, you need to move to a smaller class wormhole. That's what they were designed for. If you want to get involved in null sec, then you need to build up a force of a reasonable size to fight the other alliances. The fee is negligible otherwise all those systems would not be locked in sov. You don't have to defend it the way defense normally works. You get an email and a whole lot of time to face stomp anyone with your alliance regardless of how far away it is. A roaming gang cant come in to your empty system you abandoned and damage anything because the game mechanics prevent it. No need to have a local defense force. No effort. Crap system. Also what do you mean if they balance out the game so one person can damage a 10000 man alliance? Are you saying a 10000 man alliance needs to have the server protect its assets from one person. If 10000 people cant defend their assets from one person then they shouldn't have assets. This is rapidly getting back to the dumb idea that in order to hold sov you should have to have people logged in, in ships, just waiting for someone to attack. The timers are just to enable a fair fight. Sure, they could remove those timers, then a small roaming gang could come and steal sov. For how long? The 10000 man alliance would just come blap the system into nothing in a matter of minutes and it'd be done. The timers are there to stop another 10000 man alliance from ninja blapping the system out during low population time. For us as the english speakers, we generally have periods of low population, but we're lucky, since US, EU and AU timezones fit together well. But from the point of view of people like the Russians, or country specific alliances, there are huge periods of time where very few people will be logged on. It would simply become a case of whoevers got the biggest timezone spread wins. The amount of times small gangs come on the forums demanding they get their easy entry into sov is ludicrous. Any change they make to make it easier for you to take sov would make it even easier for a large alliance to take it back, so you'd just lose lot's of stuff. Do you REALLY think a 100 man corp could hold up very long against a 200 man cap fleet with a 1400 man subcap support? You may as well just c9ontract all your starbase structures to the enemy and save on ships. So you're saying you should be able to hold multiple regions of space while your logged out and nobody should be able to damage your crap? The server should hold your hand. There should be no raiders damaging your crops. Complete safety?

But 1 frigate != 1 stealth bomber And you are blapping alts, most probably. It's 1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1 to 8 (That's 20million max vs. 40 million times 8 = 320 million). They just need to each replace a frigate. You need to replace your stealth bomber, with warp core stabilizers, every time. Why the stabs, Harry? 10/10 you get me all the time. pâ+(*GîÆGêçGîÆ*)n+ë pü+(pé£GêçpÇü-¦)pü+ (GùòGÇ+GùòG£+) |
