Rastafarian God 31	Posted - 2014.03.01 09:38:00 - [1] - Quote Since this is GD and we can always make use of a fun topic, I was kind of wondering about this. Just last week I was positioning myself to uncloak in a force recon and attack a mining frig in lowsec. This was going to be a VERY one sided fight. I still noticed the adrenalin spike and noticed that my hand was shaking as I tried to use the mouse. I even felt the thump thump of my heart in my chest as I was about to commit myself to a fight that could end up in me loosing if this guy was bait. I even have this happen still attacking a hauler with a BS even if I KNOW he will be an easy kill and has no friends near by. Not to be caustic, but I still get off on this lol. This is what keeps me playing other then the fact that I still have the ability of looking at "leet' milestones in a way a noob would because I love this game so much. Im an 09 player for reference. Just because I know there will be someone that realizes this alt is not old enough to properly fly a force recon lol. This is why I do not care for blob warefare. You are one guy among hundreds knowing you will be reimbursed assuming your ship and fit meets the requirement. This is not a anti nullbear thread however, please do not make it one. I love lowsec piracy. I fell victim of it when new so I know what someone thinks when it happens to them. I love how our actions actually effect people. This is what EVE is really about. Im kind of curious how many of you still feel this since most of the regulars are older players. (or newer ones complaining), either way it works out. Maybe you can share your story of what still makes you feel like this, maybe we can refernce this to new players as to why we play this game for a short time. Either way I feel the whole "eve is real" feeling hence "the shakes" should act as an outlet to have some fun discussion if not only for a short time. Share your thoughts.
March rabbit Federal Defense Union 1290	Posted - 2014.03.01 09:43:00 - [2] - Quote i hate it but i FEEL every fight... after 3 f...g years on Eve Online, billions in kills and losses..... i really don't like it and hope i will get used to pvp some time....

Scipio Artelius The Vendunari End of Life 469	Posted - 2014.03.01 09:46:00 - [3] - Quote Not anything that strong. For me one of the big drawers of the game is the emotional response it sometimes causes, but a ship is just a tool and I don't ever have that sort of emotional response to either the potential loss, nor to the competitive aspect. I mostly just enjoy pvp, especially the competition. I respond emotionally, but not to that extent. eve-bazaar - I'm not associated with them, but support it as a worthwhile service
Rastafarian God 32	Posted - 2014.03.01 09:48:00 - [4] - Quote ffs I made a typo in the title lol.. hopefully a mod fixes it.. or not. But March... the fact that this still happens to you is actually a good thing. Dont hate that it happens. What are the odds of you finding another game that actually makes you feel afraid of your actions?

Im not sure why.. but in any PVP at all, my heart still races and I actually feel alive after a fight. Ive never knwon another game that does that to me.

Ive never knwon another game that does that to me. I have a corp mate who is exactly the same. He's one of our best killers and commonly highest damage on almost all killmails on our fleet roams. Put him solo or with only 1 other ship and he sweats through every fight and his hands shake at the end. It's an awesome aspect of the game. eve-bazaar - I'm not associated with them, but support it as a worthwhile service

flakeys The Mjolnir Bloc The Bloc 2078	Posted - 2014.03.01 10:38:00 - [10] - Quote Solo yup after allmost 10 years i still do , in fleet however i verry rarely have it . We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.
GazBoi08 Oberon Incorporated RAZOR Alliance 12	Posted - 2014.03.01 10:57:00 - [11] - Quote still get it if im solo after 7 years, in a fleet then its different however thats probably just cause the amount of people your with
Bael Malefic Center for Advanced Studies Gallente Federation 10	Posted - 2014.03.01 11:03:00 - [12] - Quote I still get them. Definite adrenaline rush. This is the only video game I've ever played that has had that effect. Which I guess is why I keep playing and play it as much as I can (outside of work and family time of course!)
Damzan Insomnia Inc 3	Posted - 2014.03.01 11:06:00 - [13] - Quote I only get it in solo pvp especially when im lining up an expensive kill. Never get it in fleets. This is why I play the game.

Adrenaline still flowing from PVP since 2003. THIS is what makes this game and why I'm still addicted
BuckStrider Nano-Tech Experiments 154	Posted - 2014.03.01 13:40:00 - [20] - Quote I used to have the shakes going into PVP, but then I went 'Settings > Display & Graphics > Camera Shake' and unchecked that box.. Insert Signature Here.....
Baali Tekitsu Daktaklakpak. Red Coat Conspiracy 626	Posted - 2014.03.01 13:51:00 - [21] - Quote After over 2000 losses I still feel it when I get a good fight. My definition of a good fight is when the outcome is uncertain. RATE LIKE SUBSCRIBE

Krkan Krkasticni Aliastra Gallente Federation 1	Posted - 2014.03.01 14:18:00 - [24] - Quote 2007 player here ... Rating in carrier because bored. 6 intys jump in and within 20 seconds Im tackeled. Swearing occurs, heavy drones in, light drones out, yell for help in alliance chats, poped 3/6 before cavalry arrived to save my ass ( I was lucky to pop 2 / 6 with cynos ). It all lasted a few minutes at most. But my heart was pounding, palms sweating On the other hand large TiDi battles are boring and only reason why I left 0.0 and now just PLEX-ing accounts while ISK lasts. It is expected of you to participate and I do agree with this policy. But there is no adrenaline there ... Random encounters, hellz yeah. When some punk kills my cyno alt 4 jumps from home system. Go to main, jump into T2/T3 ship and go out to execute vengance. Pop the guy only to get tackled by his mates. Call your own mates, hoping your survive while they come ... Yeah thats fun. Rare, oh so rare. But fun.
WaterMarks Khanid Armament 1	Posted - 2014.03.01 14:55:00 - [25] - Quote couple energy drinks, pizza, 24+ hours with out sleep (i work grave, then my girl wants to do stuff, then eve) light up a blunt down a FourLoco... ...ya i get the shakes every once in a while. -Fly Reckless-
Serene Repose Saanen Freight Service 961	Posted - 2014.03.01 14:59:00 - [26] - Quote I get the shakes when I even THINK I MIGHT have to PVP. No. Wait. I have the shakes when I log on. NVM, and pass the Jack Daniels, please. I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility toward every form of tyranny over the mind of man.-á
James Nikolas Tesla Onslaught Inc RISE of LEGION 100	Posted - 2014.03.01 16:18:00 - [27] - Quote So many ships to learn. I thought I would just orbit an Amarr BC and target it with my TD while I orbited laughing. Damn thing had a drone bay. Hello, HobII's! I <3 Boobees

Herzog Wolfhammer Sigma Special Tactics Group 4378	Posted - 2014.03.02 05:46:00 - [29] - Quote The most shakes I ever got was from the first Sansha live events in 2010. Those were unpredictable and nobody knew what was coming out of those wormholes. Prior to that I did occasional lowsec PVP and FW PVP but in those times, the PVP itself is both "busy" - too busy to be shaking - and also predictable: somebody is going to die. For the most part I'm too busy listening to the FC to be nervoius. I think my military training has something to do with this. Bring back DEEEEP Space!
Infinity Ziona Cloakers 1748	Posted - 2014.03.02 06:02:00 - [30] - Quote I do when I first get back into PvP after not having PvP'ed for a while. Want to make billions a week solo running combat sites in null sec? -á Read my Exploratation Guide here -> https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=309467
