Jaroslav Unwanted Brutor Tribe Minmatar Republic 153	Posted - 2011.12.23 20:31:00 - [61] - Quote @ Alysane true But when it comes to war decs. When few man corporation war dec some corporation who is consistent mainly with people without any PvP experience or only large blob PvP. Those non-PvPers all of them wish they can hunt them down and destroy their toyes, but they ussually lose when they try, hence denial of target policy.

The best reason I have found is they do not get The Rush: You're correct but missing one other bit. Some people play games to get that rush, some other play games to relax after having that rush at work. Some people play games like EvE to try their hand at leading a group in action, some play games like EvE to be able to work in a team and not having to lead (without the loss in salary or RL social standings).

Make friends contact some "alliances" which deals with such thing, they will help if you provide people and an attitude to fight back. They try hard to FORCE people to do stuff they don't want to do! They claim "my sandbox" but refuse other might have other sandboxes! They use every dirty trick (up to cheating, hacking, REAL criminal stuff) to do it! They NEVER chose targets, which might be stronger ... and if they did by mistake they run like chickens! So no respect from this idiots, sorry. In my eyes they all suck and failed in real life. Why the hell can't I fitt capital repairs or shield booster on an Orca ... it's an CAPITAL ship!

Zyress wrote: If Pvp players didn't take part in some form of pve they would soon be flying rookie ships to pvp in as they would eventually be out of money, you cannot support your pvp without Pve, mining or mission running. Uh, no. You should consider actually playing EVE some time. Jojo Jackson wrote: What a singel player does no, but again you miss the point, that maybe 75% of all custumers are PvE highsecers. If CCP start to give a ** about our will ... we leave. If we can't play OUR SANDBOX ... why should we play at all? a) A lot of highsec characters are alts of lowsec/0.0 people. b) There is only one sandbox, you don't get your own partitioned from everyone else. Indahmawar Fazmarai wrote:** When you sell entertainment, your target audience sets the limit of your growth. Yes, choosing typical PvE waste of time approach. MMOs do well and then implode. By choosing something different CCP has grown EVE consistently year-on-year, with the sole exception of their biggest foray away from EVE's core so far, which resulted in a loss of subscribers and even employees.

Well of course you have that option. However adding smallholding targets, and preventing corps from being able to dodge the entire wardec mechanic are good for gameplay. Say pvp corp x declares war on larger corp y. Corp x has no carebaring operations or holdings and docks up whenever a sufficient hostile fleet shows up. Corp y then learns that corp x has association with carebare corp z, and that corp z has a couple research towers in highsec, mission runners, etc or (insert future small holdings here). So in retaliation, corp y declares war on corp z. Corp Z should not be immune to the wardec by simply switching alliance shells.

I don't know what wars you guys are fighting but most of the ones I have seen are lame, from both sides. Gate camping, station camping or one side mowing down the other or one side having a fleet formula, that once you counter it, they run for the hills. We chose an alliance that was roughly the same number of people, same sort of SP in them and such, really tried to find a good challenging war. They met us at a gate, (neutral scouts for the win? ) and they had better hulls than us. We went right through them without a loss and they hid from there on out. I even tried to give some of them genuinely good advice, like fits on sites, so that they could put up a bit of a fight. Nope, they wanted to be n00bs. The only really good PVP I have seen is when you get lucky and find a similar size fleet in low sec or you get a gang together and counter another gang in a worm hole. Jaroslav Unwanted wrote: ...

We had some corp war dec us, can't even remember the name now. they padded their kill board with some newbs and carebears but we adapted around them. Then they tried to get us to pay them to drop the war dec! Kept coming back with smaller and smaller offers and we kept laughing about it.

Edit to add: If you guys (the core group) had any isk at all, why not set some traps? Don't fight on gates, use the belts, sun, planets or moons... get the newbs in rifters/kestrels/ecm frigs and scram the jerks..... I don't hate "carebears" (tbqh - I was one for basically 8 months). I just wish the new guys would get a little push that pvp ain't all bad... I live in WH's. I only "pvp when I want to", so to speak. But I'm ready if I have to whenever. It's just a mental adjustment... Wish you luck and all, but I do believe (just my uninformed opinion here) that war-dec mechanics will be revisted and adjusted. How much and which way, only time will tell, but I think it will be towards war, and not peace. Wormholes: The NEW end game of Eve - Online: No Local. No Lag. No Blues (No Intell Channesl). No Blobs.

Removal of other NPC player corporations, players join new corps directly from their old one. If the CEO boots them they get moved back into their own 1-man self-named corp. No player should be able to evade PvP for any substantial amount of time without expending actual effort. I love crap like this...this is probably from one of the type that has 4 years pvp experience and go around war deccing newbie corps. From the "pvp" i've seen in highsec i have felt like there isn't enough hot water in the world to wash clean from. What the posters promote as "The Rush" and the great feeling of true fights is more accurately described as running babies over with tanks. Keep talking ...sure one day we'll believe you.

Only so many times you can repeat yourself until they must go out and learn from experience, then have a good cry about it. As for traps - why? I mean all they did was send out neutral scouts everywhere and run at the first sign of a real fight. They even had some bluster explanation about it, to do with being pirates or something. We just changed some things and they didn't have many targets left, then the extortion offers came through. They were nothing more than mildly annoying.

If you don't want to fight, then avoid it. I don't mind the whole war dec avoidance, just as I have no problem with suicide ganking. But this game is PvP centric and you'll always be taking part, unless you log in and do nothing at all. CCP Zulu..... Forcing players to dock at the captain's quarters is a form of what we actually wanted to get through, which is making Incarna a seamless part of the EVE Online experience.

I shot some PVE ratter guy in a Tengu and even though I tanked him in a Cyclone, I felt a bit guilty. He had none of the PVP gear, I could have warped off at any time, he had no hope of beating the four of us. He would have been dead even if there was help a warp away. Very unsatisfying. The rush I get is when we jump through a gate and the other fleet is waiting, they have a few more pilots that are in better ships, I get made primary target and I just know that one mistake and I will probably pop. Seeing your ship going into structure, seeing theirs going too, then somehow they blow up and there is just that little difference to the damage done to you that you can rep back up. That breaking point where one fleet can win or lose. That is good. Ideas and stuff EVE - the game of sand castles, either building them or kicking them down.

Do you really want to dig up the skeletons? I said that a shuttle kill wasn't worth a kill mail, especially when it was empty. People got their panties in a twist over that. Actually, we recently blew up a POS of some guys that got one of ours. Guess we are learning. Do you really want everyone knowing that your corp ran and hid behind neutral RR and played station games with a little gang that had less than 10M SP each? Do you really want everyone knowing that as soon as I swopped over to a null sec corp you fell suddenly and mysteriously silent? Where did all the threats go then? Yeah, easy enough to be big and tough with what was essentially a mining corp at the time, when you had some medium sized alliances to blind side them with, not so easy when you might have real PVPers to contend with.

Also restrict their access to other corps' agents and occasionally change corp standings so that they might lose access to agents from time to time due to corporate diplomacy. The idea is that if you're going to work for a corp that isn't player controlled, you're subject to the whims of NPC politics. lol....what? So your grand idea is to tax NPC corp players more, while also screwing with their corp standings (that probably took weeks to raise) AND limit what agents they can run missions for? Hate to break it to you, but the only PVP these grand ideas will lead to is Carebears vs. CCP, with Unsubscription and Angry Forum Posts as ammo. Just how many carebears spend years in NPC corps? Do you really think there are that many solo players out there who put money into Eve for an extended period of time? I'm betting that the volume of rage quits would be insignificant. It's been my experience that most NPC corp members are alts and newbies. The newbies wouldn't know better and would simply accept that they needed to get out of the NPC corp to access most of the game. The alt owners would whine and make one-man corps. My grand idea is to make the established NPC corps act like corps instead of static war shelters with a modest tax. In the player environment, corporate relationships and standings change regularly. I'm suggesting that NPC corps reflect that sort of behavior.

Everyone should be used to this by now, so dry your little noses and fly a shuttle during wartime if you want to. The safest places you can be are 1.

Well not even me but for the sake of point. And yes essentially shoting up NPCs, mining rocks or shooting other people who dont shoot back is "same" by the outsider look of it. Its still PvP just quite not the "fair" one.. But quite frankly there is no such thing as fair PvP. You ussually engage what you got chance to kill.. engaging HM drake at 60km with your nano hurricane not gonna happen since you would be dead before you even get to the range of guns/point, you learn that lesson and next time you just warp off and dont bother..

You sir, has a very poor understanding of PvP in general and of PvP in EVE in particular. In EVE, a huge part of PvP is to run when you can't win and shoot when you think you can. If you can't run when you should you are doing something wrong.
