Its called game fade...and all MMO's get this. Even WoW.
How does a 1v1 pvp zone fix this. Broken record here but people who want the pvp will find it on their own. I after about 1.5 months of mission ratting said lets leave empire for a night, see what that big scary low sec is all about. I DIAF'd....but had fun all the same. Then commenced on out of empire stints for quite a bit of time.
It doesn't even help the game as it becomes a theme park attraction for potentially not that many people. they already lack a degree of flexibility in that they want pvp their way. that's not how it works. Part of allure of pvp, imo, is you don't know what you are getting for the rest of the night when you press undock. The great unknown...to differentiate from opening eve survival to know in exacting detail how pve can go before you even start it.
But lets have this. Now I see our picky players now going well....yay I got my 1 v 1. Now....I won't engage in this fight since I don't the like the ship I'd go against. ties back into that they are off to bad start for this...they are inflexible. They'd be declining pvp all night long worst case. I don't like kiters, I don't like brawlers, I don't like drone boats, don't like missile boats, don't like xyz basically.
In short this a bad special interest group to be appealing to. they are already too picky. And potentially idiots. As well...complaining about pvp sucking because people group in an mmo is quite simple idiotic. Its like going into a honkey tonk, then going to the DJ and complaining they are playing way too much country music. Its an MMO....people will tend to say hey buddy, you and me and fred....lets go hit the open road and see what fun or maybe trouble we can find. |

Some don't seem to grasp the whole get outside in the summer thing (for most of player base). Odd I know. Got quite a few months where its not as fun to go outside...enjoy those summer months while you got them a better course of action really.

fun fact one....this has been the basis for eve Is dying threads since I started years ago in apoc expansion.
fun fact two....we are already there with the moon goo. When massive wars start up see moon goo price fluctuate mild to wild. when the moon pos' are a popping even an empire bear's marauder catches some of that meta action on price increases. Smart players not even in the war then get the subtle hint to speculate these moon goo based markets. So even 0.0's games can work out for those not even in them.
fun fact three...except for known use of FW alts there are many areas where the "evil" 0.0 types don't bother much to play in. And with FW...most times they want the farming not the pvp. They are getting pvp on the main, the alt there to help pay for it really.
Find the venues that buck this trend basically . I'd recommend wh's...t3 is a market they control less. Its made many non 0.0 types happy and content players. In terms of game play to include PVP.
