All newspapers are stupid
Im not sure if that makes their readership worse, but editorialising on an editorial is rather futile "Many have joined the battle, many have survived the tests and trials, but countless have fallen because they weren't the sharpest, the fastest thinking, the most devious, the most ruthless or most intelligent. -áLog in and Compete!"-á- CCP Falcon

Hey now...
It was three days before I figured out I should be training a skill. In my defense, Aura wasn't very helpful back in 2006.
Or I'm just an idiot.

There was no need, EVE died back then because greifers drove everyone away.

Is there another way to make ISK in highsec? I'm not earning very much doing level 4's, but I can make ~10M per hour from mining. Most manufacturing for beginners winds up as a net loss, so no profit there either. I can't imagine FW being very productive as well. |

OK I may not be doing them right, but I seem to earn well in excess of 10m/hour on Lvl4s

"That's two fixes right off the top of my head: a proper gated newbie zone monitored by GMs/ISDs to help schmooze and retain new players, and removing the hisec awoxing Concord loophole so hisec corps (usually the first groups a new player would join) don't have to be so paranoid and hostile."
The gated newbie zone might work, but how would you differentiate a true new player from the hundreds of alts created by existing players? Seems a horde of griefer alts could disrupt most anything. Fly into a mission and grab the objective, bump miners off asteroids, and a dozen other things they could do to flush the NPE down the tubes. The second idea however is quite good. With the limited engagement mechanic in place, there's no real reason to keep the loophole where attacking a corpmate is ok. The loophole once served to help corps test fits, teach PVP to rookies, and other useful purposes, but with the LE, the loophole is redundant and dangerous. You could still awox in Hisec, but it would require your corpie to accept the duel invitation. |

So what you sayin then? Eve is easy to learn? You hop in and it's fun? I despise people like you. You take my comment, do stupid **** with it and you think you're smart.
Eve is just a videogame my friend, a stagnating videogame. If you have nothing to say go being a smartass somewhere else. |

EVE is really easy, actually. It just requires a willingness to actually do your homework.
But the game itself? Brutally easy.

Way to over-react
I said the skill queue hardly takes a master-mind
If you find it difficult, then perhaps it is you who should go elsewhere, friend.
But, for the sake of your pets and kids, I suggest you calm down first.

They really should shut that site down.
Every mental deficient with an axe to grind, or social justice warrior trying to bubble wrap the game sees concurrency numbers and thinks that they mean a goddamned thing.
It's summer. They have a.l.w.a.y.s. fallen in summer. L2Historical trends, bro. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

Does it look like there's less? Looks around the same, give or take
Im sure that one third of a percent is all the proof anyone needs that EvE are dyingTM "Many have joined the battle, many have survived the tests and trials, but countless have fallen because they weren't the sharpest, the fastest thinking, the most devious, the most ruthless or most intelligent. -áLog in and Compete!"-á- CCP Falcon

Yeah, it's been same for 4 years. I did not say it's dying, I said it's stagnating, and if it looks same for 4 years, it is stagnating..that's pretty obvious ain't it |

It would be nice to see the numbers steadily rising, but they aren't really falling either.
I think the game has peaked. Without radical change it's unlikely that we'll see much change one way or the other. EVE has pretty much attracted everyone it ever will. Fortunately they are a dedicated bunch and it doesn't seem like they'll be bailing any time soon. Even the rage quitters come back with their tail between their legs after they think no one will notice.
While more people playing would be good to see, I just don't think it's going to happen.

And Ironically, it has been that way since the release of their last addition of new content.
But in order to progress the game, they have to finish a decade of half-finished features.

Not even a troll, honest. Getting tips on improving the newbie experience from a Goonswam leader is like getting home security tips from Charles Manson. Goonswarm has a very positive attitude towards newbies and shower them in isk and ships and make them FC right off the bat. There is a reason why you all complain about the "Goon Zerg".
