I know you mean well and most of the stuff you wrote is helpful but, THANK GOD I did not have access to this info when I started playing. I would have run away with my credit cards unused after the trial like a spring chicken.
I believe EVE is what you make of it. I ignore everyone else's comments of "what EVE is". I like the game much better that way.
Recruiting new EVE members is hard, based on the kill or be killed credo. I brought in 12 new members so far in the last 2.5 months that I play with in other online games. Only 2 are still here. CCP would retain many more subscribers if they had a better chance in High Sec. I lost 10 potentially paying EVE subscribers out of 12 because CCP caters to PvP and Null Sec more than everyone else. The joke called the o7 Show is meant for them not us. When the do the Dev interviews you can tell they don't care about anything but total war 24/7. Fine....but that only lasts for so long before it gets old. EVE is deeper than just a fighting game. It would be so much easier for me to get new subscribers if a few things were more receptive to the NON-war people.
WarDec in High Sec should be by mutual agreement. I almost quit soon after I started because of it. Then I learned to create ALTs and tons of corps to avoid the "bully wars". Nothing ends a war faster than just changing your corp name. I have no interest in fighting, EVER! I'll leave the game when avenues to avoid it are closed. I build the weapons for war, the dirtiest my hands get is counting the ISK from a big ship order.
Why is Low Sec not Low Sec? It might as well be Null Sec. There are NO Concord security forces in Low Sec which in my opinion is crap. Just get rid of the name Low Sec altogether since it is a lie anyway.
I am not ripping on Null or PvP. They are my best customers. I wouldn't be here without them buying the stuff I build. Just give people a chance to get a grip on the exponentially steep learning curve and make some ISK in High and Low Sec (if they add any security) before they go off into the Null Sec sunset.
I'm here to play the game, not be a victim. I am not a $15/month subscriber. I am not a Jita scammer. I am an industrialist. I have spent thousands of US dollars in under 3 months with my multiple combined accounts to get where I need to be quickly. And I will not stop spending either as long as I am permitted to do "my thing" in EVE. I alone spend more monthly than 200 PvP pilots in Null Sec. Are you listening CCP? Follow the money! You LOST 10 of my deep pocket friends (that's guaranteed $15,000-$30,000 US dollars a month). How many more will you lose? That makes me upset because I wanted them to join me in this game. We just want to play without the war theatrics. Are we not worth at least listening to? If not, let me know before I buy another 4 (28) packs of PLEX to sell in a few days.
One last issue. Let me build my darn caps in 0.5 High Sec. I just want to build and sell without getting into some stupid fight every time I test a ship's fittings. Make the weapons disabled or something that makes them acceptable to test fly in 0.5 High Sec. Even better, add Low Security to Low Sec! What a concept!
Thanks for listening. My new love for this game has my emotions in a tailspin. My rant and repetitive over-running sentences are over and I feel better now. :-) Fly safe everyone! o7 |
