NPE should include a mandatory 'tour of duty' in Faction Warfare. Welcome to combat 1.1 (1.0 is shooting at red crosses).
Learn to fight, and learn to die. Many times, preferably.
In fact, any NPC corp character should automatically be in Faction Warfare. Don't like the heat? Then find solace in the rookie systems. Otherwise man up or join a corp. Or you can stay NPC and be a persistent target for your faction's enemies. No more 'free pass' for NPC neutrals (you are all spais anyway )

No more 'free pass' for NPC neutrals (you are all spais anyway ) It's funny when people post this as if it would actually play out like that. The only thing that would do is create a flood of 1 man corps with only characters who never undock remaining in NPC corps. That and a rash of wardec corp cycling like you've never seen should people actually try dec'ing individuals. Or further proliferation of alts. Or both.
I would prefer the 1-man corps to all the NPC corp characters we have now. It is a start... |

Seriously, a member of the Faction Warfare corps (ie State War for instance) should be able to do that without Concord intervention (or a security hit) if the target is in the opposing state's NPC corps. Security ratings of an enemy system make that progressively more difficult, and rookie systems are off limits in all Empires.
It certainly would be welcome in the Faction Warfare community
In light of the topic, think of it as a sandbox at your school. Now your sandbox is full of kids from the other schools... |

No more 'free pass' for NPC neutrals (you are all spais anyway ) That would happen, only, if CCP's goal was to reduce new player retention. It is low enough now, forcing 2 day old toons into combat with 1 to 5 year veterans is really going to encourage them to stay, don't you think?
Yes, exactly. |

Of course it would be. Why fight people that have a chance at beating you when you can just go club 10 minute old seals? I'm pretty convinced you want to kill this game and as such have decided that the first step is stopping new players from joining,.
I think you misinterpret what is being said.
I am all for sticking up for the newbros (and my posting history verifies this). What I am suggesting is that newbros, as part of the NPE, get to be a part of the battles that happen every day in FW. At an early point in time they have virtually nothing to lose. No creds, no assets, no reputation to hold them back from going head-first-full-tilt PvP. Eve should make your heart pound and your hands sweaty! This is what I think is needed for new players, now more than ever.
Fear is what holds people back. And the longer you go without diving into the pool, the less likely you will ever learn to swim. Risk aversion is what we learn in game, as our assets grow and our mistrust increases. A newbro should just dive in and go shoot people. Have fun and learn to lose some stuff, cause you can get those FW frigates cheap. |

Sigh...
I said my two bits. I'm not going to sit here and debate this with NPC corpies (no offense). We see things differently, and that's ok.
Enjoy the game, I'm glad you are interested and playing.
