Smashing playstyles of individuals is nothing new in MMORPGs. If it is for the greater good, then it should be done. Yes, there are many who will always get that end of the little stick - I can't even count how many times that happened in other ones.
@Clones
I'd have to agree that being able to JC everywhere is extreme and imbalanced these days. I am not all too deep into that discussion just yet so I can't really say anything smart for the moment, but I do find that one should not just nerf JCs to the ground. There are times in 0.0 where you can't do anything alone and having a JC (or deathclone) to go elsewhere to do stuff is quite useful as it is a way to use the time. But yes, it is being abused as a tool to teleport all across EVE with ease.
I'm not going to wall-text now, but I hope something can be done about this SOV/Stagnation subject.
EVE is everything factor is sort of waning the more features I see elsewhere in other games/MMOGs. HTFU can be done by going to other games too.
In my opinion, the only problem I see is the (hopefully correction expression) fraternization, the buddy-buddy stuff that just come up. In another oldschool MMORPG nobody cares much about, that was a blunt no-go and never-gonna-happen thing. This does not mean the "big alliances" are big friends - no, we see conflicts - but I'm starting to find these "too big". The last time I looked, such war campaigns are just about pulling back and retreating because the others got simply too many caps and such. Also, I've seen a row things in EVE happen like in WoW, where the Alliance and the Horde ally yet again against some other moronic evil -> just bull. I'd hope that at least here we wouldn't see this "enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap here.
In a perfect world, I'd almost say "alliances mechanics need to go" and focus more on corporations, while at the same time making sure that corps cannot fraternize easily either. I'd love to see more of a confederations of feisty corps trying to get the upper hand of the EVE'verse than just mega alliances and their CEOs sipping wine with each other. Medium corps and such could lead more to having not just armies of capital ships either. I'd also hope more that capital ships would be very special vessels and flagships per Corporation than just another chunky box on the overview list. And with that must come a reset on several areas, though. Not just SOV.
But that's just me.
Using tablet, typoes are common and I'm not going to fix them all. |
