go and do your own reaserch

They could spend a few months to design a procedural system for missions, like a random dungeon generator. So you will only get a general gist and maybe a threat level estimation from the mission description while the exact configuration is unknown and prone to offer a surprise or two.

And while they're at it, they could condense mission rats to be more in line with the ships players are using, albeit at a lowish skill level. And adapt them to the changes of pirate factions. And have them spawn drones when in aggression range. Make it less predictable and imitate player behaviour more.

If they made PvE gameplay something people actually have to think about, the howling from the PvE players would throw the earth off it's axis.

There was quality to the posting here to begin with? It's either been people sympathizing with the OP or people simplying exercising a Neanderthal mindset and insisting that EVE is fine the way it is while making fun of his less than concise thought processes, "everyone +1 my comment because I'm like so super edgy and hardcore and you're so super stupid lol."

Anyone mining has to choices either hope the nice low or null sec guys wont charge you to much or shoot you or keep hoping 6 dudes in catalysts dont show up to show you why carebearing is bad. Miners need some serious buffing

Spell research properly before attempting to come across as intellectually superior. If you'd read what I wrote, like, actually read it, I said, in no uncertain terms, what you said - the outrage was about the addition of a new but unfinished feature at the expense of fixes to existing broken or unfinished features. Don't tell me to do my own "reaserch" [sic] if you can't even read.

As an addendum, doing your own research is pointless without proper analysis. Your vexatious delivery of this 'instruction' parallels similar deliveries by various deniers across the face of the planet - vaccine deniers, heliocentricity deniers, old earth deniers, and science deniers in general - complete with flying spittle and all.

In my experience, telling people to "do their own research" amounts to "don't make me do stuff" - you either don't have, or are too lazy to find, the 'research' that you're telling me to do. Every time someone says it to me, I know I'm talking to someone who wouldn't qualify as a halfwit with twice the brainpower they have, let alone someone who even knows what research actually is.

I see a lot of words here but fail to see your point. You disregarded the entire sentiment of quinns post and instead criticized his spelling... Do you really think that helps your argument?

Nobody is saying that fixes do don't improve the game but some people feel fixes without any real content makes for a boring game. I you feet otherwise, please explain your views more clearly instead of talking nonsense and insulting people.

What more do you want?

Yeah..

Oops My Bad

They want more themepark content. And they are trying to use the "new player experience" line as a smokescreen to ask for it, the same reason people say "It's for the children" in real life, to make an unreasonable request sound like a reasonable one.

So it's the players that promise the world at fanfest and fail to deliver... Interesting.

Where is all that content huh CCP?

So..

Let me get this right

After a barrage of things that disprove your "nothing is planned, EvE is dying" rant

You cherry pick one thing that wouldn't have actually added anything to the game for at least months if not years?

If at all?

Stop trying to derail this into another boring WiS argument

How about answering any of the points raised about how subs are not haemorraghing and indy and mining is stronger and more popular than its ever been and is getting even more buffs?

For those of you that believe fixes alone are the answer to all the problems, please take a look at the following information. Server numbers are steadily declining and they are almost as low as they were during the summer of rage. The highest they have ever been was between the incursion and incarna releases, so make of that what you will...

Now as for the " barrage of things that disprove your "nothing is planned, EvE is dying" rant" i have honestly missed anything that disproves anything i say.

If you have evidence to prove that fixing broken parts of the game results in more subscriptions and a better game than adding new content, i would be glad to hear it and debate it with you.

Once again, I like the fact that CCP are fixing parts of the game but that doesn't stop me from wanting new content to give me something new to do.

If you need ccp to add new content to give you new things to do, you're playing the wrong game. 7 years I've played and I'm still finding new things to do, even more so now that CCP is making old useless things new .

I now know for a fact that an Impel can tank the citadel torp from a 10/10 while deploying a jet can of cap boosters (toi keep my dual XLASB machariel dps ship from running out of them while It kills the overseer) NO LOGISTICS SHIP REQUIRED. But the only reason I know that now is because I'm a sandbox PVE player playing a sandbox MMO thus i make my own damn 'content'.

I don't know why we are all arguing. I can accept that you guys are happy with the game but why can't you accept that other people derive fun from different things that you?

That, my dear Doctor, is the nub of the conflict in this kind of thread.

But what do I know? Im just a simple Cardassian tailor

Its when you get abusive to people that dont understand why you are so unhappy with this game that leads to conflict.

If you dont like this game the way it is, why should the rest of us accept your proposed changes when the net result of that in our opinion would make us unhappy?

What is it about EvE that makes people play, but when they find they dont like it, rather than change to a game they do enjoy, they lobby to have the game itself changed?
