It turns out that Greyscale's ~vision~ has been foretold before.

Greyscale is oblivious to the broader impact that his fantasy of taking away the sandbox aspect of the game and forcing everyone to play it in the way he thinks is the best.

CCP has traditionally been a terrible developer, to the extent that everyone with sense can tell you that so far EVE Online survived not because of CCP, but despite CCP.

Specifically, it survived because EVE has been a sandbox, giving you unprecedented freedom to play the game in the way you want to play.

Now, not so much. Everyone is going to get forced to play the game in the way that Greyscale thinks they should.

This is why I have been telling that personally, Greyscale will make history as the man who put the final nail on EVE's coffin.

Disgusting, how sad highsec carebears and mad mid size alliances trying to support this insolence.

I can only repeat myself; This is not a matter of numbers. Shove your maths up somewhere dark.
Its a matter of NOT let ccp spit you right in the face. They let the big alliances do what they wanted in the past, it was THEIRE politics. Now there is no balance anymore. Who pays for this? Everyone, but not the ones who should.

Carries have been this way for years, and changing something that consumes that much skill time is just not within the bounderies. Its a no go, end of discussion. ESPECIALLY in a game that is 10+ years old. You guys know that is true. And CCP should know that too. So please, try to justify that again.

There will be no "salty tears hrhrhr", there will be just about ~10k players less. And even if the supporters of the Idea wouldnt admit, they dont want that too. So why we dont stick toghter just for once and say: "No CPP. That was the worst idea you guys ever had.." But hey, we rather fight, just because some aholes in the community want to spend Hours/Days to get stuff form a to b, cause they consider it "fun".

Propaganda? Please tell us how it's propaganda, and meanwhile, explain to us how a small group without numbers and resources will ever secure a gate to gate logistical line into the deep null!

The mere fact that you cannot explain how this is propaganda, or how you cannot explain how a solo guy or a small entity can ever do the logistical work you appear to be so keen on is telling. You have only been pushing an emotional, shallow and pedantic knee-jerk reaction here, probably dreaming to yourself how these changes will make you or whatever group you are involved with being the top dogs in null or something.

Your romantic daydreams, while quite adorable, has nothing to do with the facts and problems we are discussing here.

You guys really can't see it clear or you refuse to?
NOBODY will re-sub because of this, because nobody unsubbed because of power projection. Major power blocks will still be able to defend their space against small alliances by just sending their daily roaming fleet to scatter the attackers.

Besides that, there will also be a probably substantial amount of unsubbs due to castration of jump drives.

So .... GG CCP, GG

Contact me for a recruiting opportunity. Might be your only choice once we close up null sec to small groups.

your point..

Most of goonswarm members who have posted in this thread are not crying but are in fact laughing because they know that these changes will only make them stronger.

Those super capital pilots wouldn't be so bored if there was new content to distract them.

why should it be difficult

what does that add to the game

please discuss in terms of the game and not dumb analogies involving babies
