James Amril-Kesh 4S Corporation Goonswarm Federation 7105	Posted - 2013.12.22 08:14:00 - [61] - Quote How about this: EVE hardcore mode: you die, your OS is overwritten with a program that displays a video of CCP Guard looking down on you, pointing, and laughing hysterically. Yes, down. Latest video - Pandemic Legion titan and supers killed
Xercodo Xovoni Astronautical Manufacturing and Engineering 3079	Posted - 2013.12.22 12:05:00 - [62] - Quote No, see, you guys have it all wrong. Hardcore mode isn't so much about making the risk higher Hardcore mode should make it more challenging. Put limitations on yourself by doing things like only using meta 0 fittings, and not being allowed to train anything to 5 (thus cutting out all T2 ships) It's cheaper AND harder to work with. OOoo, another idea. You're not allowed to use rigs, at all. The Drake is a Lie
Haygrove Sturmgrenadier Inc 2	Posted - 2013.12.22 12:17:00 - [63] - Quote That is less Hardcore mode and more "Pre-Expansion" mode. Being a capsuleer with the ability to be killed without penalty is... in essence, easy mode. Making death have meaning in this game with random skill loss would actually make it not only have more meaning but also create some form of hardship. Perhaps creating a system where you cannot be cloned without skill loss unless you have sizable standing? It involves some NPC work so I'm sure some pvpers will cry, but tears are made to be collected.
stoicfaux 3469	Posted - 2013.12.22 15:02:00 - [64] - Quote Bah, hardcore mode is relying on RMT to pay your rent. On a side note, is playing against CCP's devs and fraud team considered to be PvP or PvE?
Dranchela SniggWaffe WAFFLES. 33	Posted - 2013.12.22 15:02:00 - [65] - Quote Maliceth Crimson wrote: Anyone think Eve Online is too easy ? How about a Hardecore mode whereby if you die your character gets wiped and you start again from 900k sp or w/e it is you start at. No.

I think i've seen it before, seen it shot to pieces and laughed at before, just no, please stahp, biomass, can i haz etc Super hardcore mode? Car batteries wired to your nipples and rigged to shock you whenever you take damage? Come on, think big! Overheat your masochism and misery and let those thoughts about suffering and loss ooze all down the forums like a bucket of chicken guts left in the sun all day. Edit: or not How about having your wife/significant-other standing-by with a bat. Have her hit you in the head every time you take damage. Right now she probably only complains about what a waste of time eve is. Explain to her she needs to exhibit some REAL aggro.

Paragoda Coreli Corporation Ineluctable. 10	Posted - 2013.12.24 12:40:00 - [67] - Quote Hardcore mode.. only use rookie ships never not be in a rookie ship. PvP will now be pretty hard but feel all the more rewarding if you ever manage to solo kill that annoying saber... Good Luck -Paragoda
Rroff Questionable Ethics. Ministry of Inappropriate Footwork 375	Posted - 2013.12.24 17:50:00 - [68] - Quote Eve was originally intended to be more like that and it was one of the bigger issues/concerns I had with World of Darkness - 99% of players just don't want to play that seriously and for those that find that style of gameplay rewarding - they make up a tiny fraction of potential players.
Old Phill Republic University Minmatar Republic 44	Posted - 2013.12.28 02:42:00 - [69] - Quote make hardcore f2p sure they could be massive carebear but maybe they could have like a special nametag like dust players do so gankers know what to look for

This is unfortunately why we rarely see decent games and why of those decent games that do get released, the difficulty is slowly eroded until its no longer decent. EvE as an example. Games are made for average people and average people like things to be easy.

Setsudan Yogen-sha United Global Associates Mining Division 0	Posted - 2013.12.28 18:00:00 - [71] - Quote Why not limit the accelerated hardmode characters to only pvp and combat skills much like how trial accounts are limited in what they can train. Then just give everyone a fourth character slot. Quote: make hardcore f2p sure they could be massive carebear but maybe they could have like a special nametag like dust players do so gankers know what to look for While I like the thought of a massive influx of characters (in my mind combat limited characters) I feel like going f2p may not be the best idea. Tons of players would multibox tons of characters and just close the window and start another f2p account every time they died. Maybe put a cooldown timer on how long it takes for each account to get their next accelerated clone/character. CCP could then sell the ability to deacrease this time.
Gaellia Bonaventure Royal Amarr Institute Amarr Empire 1806	Posted - 2013.12.28 19:17:00 - [72] - Quote Just play Dead is Dead. That might be enough of a limitation right there to make it hardcore. You can still do everything you already do like fitting out your ships properly, etc. But there would be no sense in upgrading your clone, of course. Have fun! Bring your possibles.

Anatoly Vsevolod Republic Military School Minmatar Republic 4	Posted - 2013.12.29 01:45:00 - [74] - Quote Why not just reset Eve so that all of us will start again from 0 SP ?

We must restart the game at some time, it has been running since 2003 and it's not fair for actual new players. The problem with Eve is that there are way too many alts and to few new players that actually think about getting into Eve. I mean , seriously now , if you want to know how many actual real persons play the game at a time , all you need to do is just divide Current Online Players by 50 or even more. Starting all over from 0 SP i think it will bring great benefits to the game.

Yeah... great benefits. What we have now is fair to new players. It's not the old player's fault they've been playing longer. It would not be fair to established players to take away their skillpoints. The vast majority of them would get fed up and leave. Your idea is stupid. Also, very, very few people have anywhere near 50 alts. Most people have at most 3 or 4, and there are many players who have only one account. Latest video - Pandemic Legion titan and supers killed

Yeah... great benefits. You fail to see the benefits here... What if you have invested your skill points badly ? Why should one quit in disgust, when he has a chance to start all over again ? That without having to create multiple alts and accounts .

You know for new players they COULD add new systems just for them every year that eventually link up to the rest of the New Eden. Could be fun. ~ Professional Forum Alt -á~

ZynnLee Akkori Perkone Caldari State 16	Posted - 2013.12.29 15:05:00 - [86] - Quote Ummm.... you only start with about 55,000 SP, not 900,000
Proddy Scun Renfield Inc 46	Posted - 2013.12.29 16:23:00 - [87] - Quote CCP Fozzie wrote: I think the idea has merit. Sure the idea has merit...right after CCP fixes that big stack of bugs that makes getting podded more likely. Can we start with the 1-3 seconds that explosion locks out all screen based UI control? Where attackers have legal keys or options to lock and shoot pods during that time -- I have always thought that binding warp to locations to keys constituted an illegal macro. Meaning podding is pretty automatic if they got fast lock and warp disrupt. But I assume the lure of HARDCORE is x10 training speed.
Edward Perry Wild.Stallions 13	Posted - 2013.12.30 14:32:00 - [88] - Quote Are your nuts! This is the worst idea in the world! With training to take years to get in to some of the ships you would limit the person to frigates maybe destroyers. You could not accelerate training or isk payout enough to do that. You would be eliminating one of the greatest separator between this game and WOW. You need to invest time in your character. Plus it is what keeps people coming back year after year. I hope this idea die's a horrible death and CCP Fozzy gets slapped on the head for it.
Stridermot Squadron of the Damned 1	Posted - 2013.12.30 19:27:00 - [89] - Quote In almost 10 years with two accounts I have earned a few million sp . This proposal would have me unable to fly even a TII frigate let alone TII BS or capitals if I died. How long do you think I would keep subscribing if this happened ? One can only suppose CCP Fozzy is trolling. Surely no-one employed by CCP could be this stupid - oh wait!!
Lunatic Fridge Elder Signage 0	Posted - 2014.01.01 18:47:00 - [90] - Quote How about making it opt in? Maybe having the switch being choosing to kill a pod? Your choice, either don't pod people or risk your skill points. Maybe also affecting every character on the account? So no gank alts unless you want to risk your main.
