Kardea Caldari Ashes to Ashes	Posted - 2007.03.30 08:54:00 - [1] Yup, folks. You read right. Eve has progressed to a point where hardcore military hardware, 50m skillpoint characters, and general godlike hatred has proliferated too far. I was just pirated... in Empire space... By a Nyx. I've been playing long enough to remember the days when there -were- no Motherships. I remember when the concept of using one to pirate was laughable. They're for assaults, fleet battles, morale... all that. Now, I lose a rather expensive Maelstrom to a Nyx and a FastLock Abaddon in a 0.4 system. EVE can't last much longer like that. There are too many people, with too many skillpoints, too many superpowerful faction-fitted ships, and they ALL seem to be pirates. Not even decent pirates! They're all the "No mercy, no ransom, just die, -10.0 Hardcore!" pirates. I swear to God, that was the Nyx pilot's profile. I think it may very well be time for me to lay down my aviator glasses and kiss EVE goodbye.
Saint Lazarus	Posted - 2007.03.30 08:58:00 - [2] Can I have your stuff? But I do see what ya mean but what can be done, those pirates have earned the right to fly those ships from YEARS of training, it isnt fair to nerf'em or take'em away either. So moral of the story. Deal with it adapt and survive or give me yo stuff :D :insert cool signature here:

Jex Jast Go for the booty	Posted - 2007.03.30 09:36:00 - [9] TBH I think you just got the most fantastic owning of your life and are unable to see it as such. Rather, you come in here and boo hoo about it when it was perfectly fair. Just because it was a ridiculous way to kill you doesn't make this OP any better than the typical carebear whine. Your only saving grace is that you were calm and logical about it. But the fact remains that you were fair game to anyone who could get you, even a Nyx/Fast-Lock Abaddon combo. ----- :::Need to be cleaned::: Sorry mods, hijack removed - blame the sig length limit.

DarkElf Caldari Veto.	Posted - 2007.03.30 10:11:00 - [11] WTF are u whining about exactly? high sp players don't really affect the game that much seen as u can only have so many sp towards certain ships. Most ppls skills are stretched across several ships when ur a high sp character. There are very few MS's in operation as i understand and those that do that i know of are decent pirates despite what u say. I also wonder about your logic when you say that just because someone doesn't ransom they are not a decent pirate From the sound of it i may be time for you to leave eve, but i suspect it's not for the reasons you gave.

kublai Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2007.03.30 10:19:00 - [12] You nearly haveto pity these people, who lack the creativity and skill to do well in this game..almost anyway. May I suggest hello kitty island adventure online?
Tobias Sjodin Caldari Ore Mongers R0ADKILL	Posted - 2007.03.30 10:23:00 - [13] There's maybe a handful people who aren't alliance-affiliated who personally own motherships. Your original argument is full of holes. // ORE MONGERS // Recruiting now.

Brother Funkyshades Muzzletov Gewaltski Inc.	Posted - 2007.03.30 13:48:00 - [23] Edited by: Brother Funkyshades on 30/03/2007 13:44:50 yo people, whats your problem? the op isnt whining, like so many other people. he stays calm, asks a few questions, and maybe, just maybe, he overshoots the goal a little. but all in all i found it quite fun to read the post, was kinda melancholic. and you guys freak out, like you always do. try a little harder, and you will make C&P look even worse than CAOD. and honestly ... any player with "No mercy, no ransom, just die, -10.0 Hardcore" in his bio looks kinda stupid. no matter his records. imho. ive got absolutely nothing against pirates or eve being a dog eat dog world. but i can understand the op a little.
Lacihtenu	Posted - 2007.03.30 14:06:00 - [24] Edited by: Lacihtenu on 30/03/2007 14:04:32 I'm envious. Here's why... My character is almost a year old (In 2 months), but has only a bit over a million skill points because I only played 3 months before I cancelled the account. I recently came back a month ago. Now, new players get as many SP's to start off that I have after months of training. So they can get into Cruisers and Battlecruisers at a faster rate (Granted they have the cash for it). They then proceed to camp gates and smacktalk you when they pop your ship because they 4 or 5 on 1 against you when you warp in and can't do much. They are skilless asses that don't deserve the kills. If I am going to be owned, I would LOVE for it to be to a MS as you had done. At least I would know the guy / gal has done their time in game to deserve the kill, and I would finally get to see a MS up close and personal (Seconds before being turned into space dust ). On a side note: Training complete in 2 days for cloaking.
Kardea Caldari Ashes to Ashes	Posted - 2007.03.30 14:12:00 - [25] Oi, Funkyshades. Thanks for standing up for me. I'm not whining, I'm simply stating something I think is rapidly becoming fact. I would not have been surprised at ten battleships gatecamping me. I -am- surprised when a mothership does it. It's not the fact that I lost an expensive t2 setup. It's the fact that I lost it to a ship that supposed to be legendary, but is now more and more and more commonplace.

On a side note: Training complete in 2 days for cloaking. With you all the way on that one. My char is a year old i think, and i'd say a good 5-6 months of that is constant training, with 1 month for frig 5 whilst i was off (31 days at the time heh). I have 5.5 mil SP atm, which is what, couple months tops under new system i think. Ironically, i don't need anymore skills. I fly T2 frigs and i can fully fit them T2 well with all support skills suffience to fly well. So i guess it's kinda true when they say newer players can compete, as you can't fly a frig that much better than i could really regardless of SP.
dennyreborn	Posted - 2007.03.30 14:44:00 - [27] I Agree to a extent. There needs to be a way to catch newer player up. I would suggest if a player has less then 30Mil SP + 10% learning speed. If he has below 20 mil Sp +20% and if he has below 10 mil +30% This would help newer players get into the game quicker, with out the older players whining OMG the noobs are catching up too me too much.
Archeas	Posted - 2007.03.30 14:56:00 - [28] Edited by: Archeas on 30/03/2007 14:52:45 You guys with the year old characters need to train up some learning skills and get some implants or something. My character is around a year old (-3 months, because i had taken a break), and i just hit 10 million SP last week. I'd reccommend getting all of your advance learning skills to level 4 and then getting some nice, cheap implants when you get the money; they really do make a difference. Edit: (woops, wrong character - Neo Maximus.)

Edit: (woops, wrong character - Neo Maximus.) all advance learning skills at 4 except charisma No implants though, i think i'll buy some now actually, as i've been podded maybe twice in 2 months. +3's should be a good middle ground. However like i said, im stuck as to what to train for. I'm training destroyers 5 for interdictor now, but after that i have all the skills i want or will ever need to fly all the T2 frigs, fit T2 out fully (except missiles, but they use too much resources, arbalests better) Edit: and yeh, to fly them well, all the support and main skills to lvl 4. Only weak point is electronics, but i have so much CPU on every ship, those skills are worthless to me, including the lock speed and range.
Mr Filth Infinitus Odium	Posted - 2007.03.30 15:13:00 - [30] Edited by: Mr Filth on 30/03/2007 15:11:44 Edited by: Mr Filth on 30/03/2007 15:11:05 To keep the Motherships and Titans for "fleetbattles", ccp should make it possible to scramble them, but still keeping them immune to ECM, Damp, yadda yadda yadda.. ohh and the reason for some people being filthy rich, is because of a very bad bpo-lottery-system :)
