Right now however, we have a game which has grown stagnant, projects which have gone nowhere or may go nowhere and despite sharing the same universe are not connected at all (orbital bombardments really don't count with how little influence they have)GǪ
I am very, very worried. It only goes faster the further down it goes.
Less for veterans.
Not enough for credit card kids (I also mean mental lack of maturity).
It will die in the middle of transition.

It will die in the middle of transition. All that anger and bile in most of your posts. I cannot imagine how it must be using all that time, being negative. IMO it cannot be healthy. Out of curiosity why do you spend so much time complaining, instead of finding something you like to do? I really do not get that. What time?
I post while warping, mining, waiting for fleets to form or fishing / meditating in another game.
I post at all because
- I still care.
- the core of EVE is still there.
- Fozzie's damage could be reversed.
- EVE was a great game.
They should fork the system and make a shallow little play pool server for the kids to splash around in and think they are awesome.
Can't code player brains but can make the game too brain numbing to be worth playing.

As an eve vet i can confirm most of those points. Sadly CCP won't listen, and most players will move on to other games (a lot have already, look at eve-offline.net ...) the only vets i see pulling their hair about this are mostly carebears.  I am all-rounder. I PVP in heavy tackle, logi and even FC time to time. I dive into worm holes, I rat, mine, PI and station trade.
Yet people sling "care bear" at me.
I am starting to dismiss people that toss that out so easily. It is like some homophobic terms, it is used as a derogatory term to say, "I am cool and they are not" Well you aren't.
If you have to resort to name calling because you can't put together a coherent counter argument then you are definitely not "cool"

Ima Wreckyou wrote:This comes all down to word games it seams.
There is NO game where you can buy player skill, you can always just purchase an advantage.
Purchasing player skill is obviously not possible, but I am almost certain now that if it could be sold CCP would make a plan right now to market it in the New Eden store.
So there is either no pay2win game at all, because you all take the term just literally and don't realize what it really means. Or you understand what people mean with the word (congratulations, you are now actually able to talk about it!) and realize that EVE fits the definition of the word and is even one of the worst games out there when it comes to purchasing advantages for money.
What SP trading actually did:
It took one of the best things EVE had, a grind free character progression system and mutated it into a slow ticking paywall like it is used in every other pay2win games. That is just horrible, I hate it that they have done this to this game. Bloody CCP.
Jenn aSnide agreed with me ...
... and now I am completely agreeing with Ima Wreckyou.
What have you done CCP?!
What have you done?!
You have crossed the streams!
Something is seriously wrong when these people start agreeing with each other!

SOV mechanics.
Why anyone would want SOV.
The fake wars.
The arranged fights.
I wonder what it must have been like back when people just did and the game was not already won?

Kill board.
Age
Often public skills.
Knowing how little it might change.
A veteran can have a new toon get killed repeatedly to different groups then inject it to perfect skills and hustle people.
This will make them more risk adverse and take less fights.
Just the way people are.
Once the SP farms really kick in then expect people to whine about lack of fights and how people dock and hide.

How the hell is he going to do that? Trick them at gambling? You and I both know that SP does not equate to victory in a fight. ... The horror. Simple example:
Rifter
Rifter
Rifter
Rifter
Hound
Defenders warp to gate to kill me ... tackle + hot drop
Then travel quick to next place that I set up with Rifter losses.

Limit on how much it can change since publicly displaying their skills.
Kill board history.Aunt en Thielles wrote:I don't think the skill injectors are such a big issue, instead it is a sp sink. I've seen some kills where injectors have been destroyed and therefore a lot of sp got removed from the game. A lot less than is sunk into alts that are under used or train past being perfect in their purpose.
This has now changed, they are now used as an extra source of ISK to skim off the extra SP they gain.

Two years 36M SP total and I am decent enough in Minmatar and Gallente sub-capitals.
More than half of my skill points are in mining and industrial skills.
If you read up on it, pick a ship and a fit, you can be out there PVPing in an incredibly short time.
^ this is true. So true. Perhaps the 400-pound gorilla in the room is the mass of unrealistic expectations so many have re: how the game works and the disappointment they feel when they can't have everything "their way." You don't have to spend years watching your skill queue and mining before you can PVP. We prove that every month or two with the CAS Combat Day. Other public fleets do the same. +1 Deck Cadelanne wrote:
I am seeing a lot of veteran players mad enough to quit over this and I empathize. I understand the perception that CCP has "sold out" by allowing newer players to potentially fast-track to the "level" these veterans have achieved in terms of what they can fly and do..
Not only veterans.
Sure, new player may need a leg up to start being effective in their first three months.
Fine. Speed up their SP rate until they hit 5M SP.
Selling a by-pass with skill injectors is just bloody stupid. - Not because newbies will fast track but because veterans will fast track multiple accounts.
Try and visualise the potential damage someone who already has 24 accounts and trillions of ISK can do by fleshing out their alts to have perfect skills for given purposes.
Now compound that by having an alliance of players like that with alts planted into other alliances.

What could I do with tens of accounts fleshed out to really mess with players?
Well looking at my current client open, I would have 25 of them all actively running before it approaches 100% CPU.
So hey, that could be ((1x T3 hot dropper + (1x HIC logged off in system) per system) x12 systems) +1x Black Ops Battleship.
Now think if a bunch of those multi-box miner who build Supers and Titans decided to train that stuff for a laugh.
Think of the plague, the tears. No limitations on time, nothing pulling them to train in different directions away from a setup like that.
Just one day on a whim, "You know, I could screw with some nerds"

Line member ISK, hitting them day to day makes them more risk adverse and less likely to buy into doctrines and fleet up.

It is already in place and it can get worse.
APIs + Injectors, you can make sure your members inject certain skills to train a doctrine and have perfect skills for it.

Well 500m no because I am perpetually poor but I doubt the alliance management will fiance my "powerleveling" into T3 cruisers or anything like that... If you have proven loyal, would not a better pilot prove less costly to SRP and the rest of the fleet in the long term?
