Garia666 Amarr T.H.U.G L.I.F.E	Posted - 2007.11.13 09:46:00 - [1] Quote: 433,000 characters, there are 164,000 Caldari pilots (38%), 116,000 Gallente pilots (27%), 86,000 Minmatar pilots (20%), and 68,000 Amarr pilots (16%). These are the ice cold facts.. Amarr is lacking in every way. In my opinion CCP should do something about this. Quote: The histogram on right shows the distribution of total skill points across the population of EVE. The average life span of an EVE character is seven months; hence it comes as no surprise that half of the characters have less than one million skill points so roughly i can say that half of these 68000 34000) has only 1 million sp /me nods head sigh. The amarr race should be an more atractive race.. who should appeal to the players.. My best guess is that the recent amarr players are made just because people pick them by accident instead of the roles or ideals or the power of our race.. CCP dammit do something aboout it! the amarr race is deing.. we are alomst an protected species.. mabe its an idea to change the back story and give most of our space to teh caldari.. ->My Vids<-

Cadiz Caldari No Quarter. Vae Victis.	Posted - 2007.11.13 09:50:00 - [4] Actually, I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that a disproportionate number of those veteran characters with 30-40+ mil SP are Amarr...a lot more than 16%, anyways. Amarr used to be the win-button, after all. ------ Director, No Quarter "There is no problem that cannot be solved by the judicious application of violence."

One87	Posted - 2007.11.13 09:51:00 - [6] Nother fact: minnie are 2 seccond least played so are they seccond wrost? I would say minnie are arguable the best choise atm. Within thease "ice cold fact" are non icecold things like personaly perferance and style. And thus you cant use this "fact" to measure amarr ineffectiveness.

ilovedronesandcarriers	Posted - 2007.11.13 09:55:00 - [8] all characters were included including alts and month old players remember that caldari are the macho men and amarr girls dont have any skimpy outfits anyone can train any race no matter their bloodline
Shevar Minmatar A.W.M Ka-Tet	Posted - 2007.11.13 09:58:00 - [9] Yes amarr females should be hawt chicks, preferably looking like elves to attract more players to choosing an Amarr avatar! Also the males should be changed to muscular men that look like they are chiseled from stone, just so that nerds can choose a proper male to play! --- -The only real drug problem is scoring real good drugs
Cygnus Zhada Amarr The Wild Hunt	Posted - 2007.11.13 09:59:00 - [10] It also stated that Amarr has the most missile SP of the non-missile races (which we aren't anymore, due to that #@$@ing Khanid changes). You wanna know WHY? Because amarr sucks the most at belt ratting... Gallente is just fine with the Domi, Minnie mostly uses typhoons for it. Amarr just sucks at it, you could go Geddon and see your cap melt in 5 seconds (but at least you can field 5 heavy drones) or apoc and see it take 5 eons to kill stuff due to sad damage and 75 (SEVENTY FIVE!) m3 drone space. THAT is why Amarr have missile skills; they gave up and crosstrained to a Raven. Welcome to EVE Online: Press 1 for Caldari, PVE Online Press 2 for Minmatar, PVP Online Press 3 for Gallente, PWN Online Press 4 for Amarr, Lulz Online

Should Be: 433,000 characters, there are 164,000 Macroing Mission Runners (38%), 116,000 Pirates (27%), 86,000 Nano Pirates (20%), and 68,000 Screwed Over People (16%) Yes I fly Amarr BUFF THE AMARR RECONS \o Odessa Operations are Recruiting
Khes	Posted - 2007.11.13 10:41:00 - [12] Originally by: Garia666 The amarr race should be an more atractive race.. who should appeal to the players.. My best guess is that the recent amarr players are made just because people pick them by accident instead of the roles or ideals or the power of our race.. New players do not choose race because of the ships abilities. They choose race by the information they get during the character creation. So the reason there are few amarr players is not because of how good or bad their ships are.
Amaron Ghant Caldari Matsuko Industries	Posted - 2007.11.13 10:42:00 - [13] Unless you are one of the few people who roleplay in EVE, choosing a race is the same as choosing between two identical apples.
Kuolematon Space Perverts and Forum Warriors United Cult of War	Posted - 2007.11.13 10:43:00 - [14] I'm pure amarr but due choosing race best for skill training in long run rather than looks, I'm caldari but my skills are pure amarr! It's great being Amarr isn't it.

However the one apple gets the rigtht to whine and the other does not..tis' a strange world
Amuko Amarr Happy Little Roid Huggers	Posted - 2007.11.13 11:04:00 - [16] Being amarr doesn't mean you fly amarr, same counts for other races, I'm Amarr, but I fly mainly gallente and a bit of caldari/minmatar. My alt whoever does fly amarr. Most of the new chars that are made are caldari because they get very nice stats (achura), and although most of those probably specialize in caldari, more than a few are probably created just for the attributes, not for the race's ships.
Jose Quevo Gallente Center for Advanced Studies	Posted - 2007.11.13 11:08:00 - [17] Aw - poor Amarr. ;( ----
Kastar Memphis Technologies Intergalactic Brotherhood	Posted - 2007.11.13 11:13:00 - [18] Please keep Amarr as they are. Being a minority adds flavour and people go more WTF if they're being killed by a "gimped" race. -----------------------------------------------
Perry Amarr The X-Trading Company Mostly Harmless	Posted - 2007.11.13 11:17:00 - [19] It's dead, Jim
Moghydin Confederation of Red Moon Red Moon Federation	Posted - 2007.11.13 11:18:00 - [20] I am Caldari and in my n00b days was stupid enough to specialize in Amarr (back then I was naive to think that all races are equally balanced). Why I didn't stop training for Amarr at some point? Because I didn't like to waste my time spent on Amarr and I thought it'll be better if I specialize more. At 1-st I didn't want to waste a month of training, then it was 2 months, then 4 - that's the pattern. Now I'm training some Gallente, but if given the chance to roll back, I'd go for Caldari. Raven - the ultimate PvE ship Rokh - very good fleet battleship Scorp - excellent EW battleship Cerberus - one of the best close range HACs Recons - kings of EW Crow - best interceptor Harpy - very good anti-support long range frigate Blackbird - one of the few T1 cruisers that can actually do something even in an advanced gang And btw, new Khanid ships show only one thing - CCP knows that lasers are hopelessly broken, the question is whether they'll do something about it.

Ilvan	Posted - 2007.11.13 11:20:00 - [21] Maybe it's because the race is just rather unappealing. I mean really, psychotic fundamentalist slavers? My reaction to the race descriptions when I first started playing went something like: Caldari - Gallente - Minmatar - Amarr -
Gealbhan Caldari The SAS The Kano Organisation	Posted - 2007.11.13 11:21:00 - [22] I dunno, Amarr, a case of the nerf bat gone mental? shrugs Regardless, I've trained for Amarr because I love the Abaddon, granted it takes 500 gallons of wax to get it shiney but it's worth it. Amarr ships are so flasy you'd be proud to be caught dead in one (and you normally are) "Concentrate all your fire on one target, when it is destroyed, move on to the next. That is how you secure victory". - Tactica Imperium.
Mikal Drey Angels and Demons	Posted - 2007.11.13 11:29:00 - [23] hey hey I made a RealLifeÖ choice to choose Minmatar. 1. I prefered the underdog (hard mode) 2. I specifically didnt choose Amarr because of the slave history. 3. I much prefered the minmatar avatar and the amarrian one looked crap (imho) You could also add that when people have been taking advantage of the "power of two" they are choosing a much more specific chatarter in respects to Character Creation Specifics. You should take statistics with a pinch of salt. As a totally new character about to play the tutorial you have no idea about which race is better than the others so from a new player perspective you could say that Amarrians just dont look that interesting.
bloomich Trotter's Independent Traders Co	Posted - 2007.11.13 14:16:00 - [24] You also have to remember that most new players will remake their character during the trial period. E.G someone with 20 charisma and Amarr race is going to be advised by his first corp that he joins to remake ASAP! Heck, even with great stats, a lot of new Amarr pilots get advised from their corpmembers to change asap! Also, most new players will look at the forums breifly to see what people think about the races. Amarr are a mostly useless race, therefore all these legitimate complaints will make new players delete their chars and remake as any of the other races during their first week even without corpmembers loling at them --SIG-- I am aware that my name means reproductive organ in another language, I bought this char for isk with that name without relising that.
Garrick Konquero Gallente ImmCo	Posted - 2007.11.13 14:17:00 - [25] Originally by: Ilvan Maybe it's because the race is just rather unappealing. I mean really, psychotic fundamentalist slavers? And their look seems to mostly limited to cranky middle-aged bald men or constipated monks. Amarr are doubly screwed just as Caldari are doubly blessed. For a new player, Amarr are (for the most part), not a very attractive choice. And for an experienced player or a new player who knows something about the game, they're not a first choice either, for reasons we pretty much know. Caldari are doubly blessed. New players take them because of their look and feel and experienced players may choose them because of their min-maxability.
Qui Shon	Posted - 2007.11.13 14:29:00 - [26] Edited by: Qui Shon on 13/11/2007 14:29:58 Originally by: Garrick Konquero Caldari are doubly blessed. New players take them because of their look and feel and experienced players may choose them because of their min-maxability. Look and feel? Dude, check out my face! No, Gallente and for some, Minmatar, definitely win the look & feel award.
Ulstan Caldari	Posted - 2007.11.13 14:57:00 - [27] Actually, amarr characters isn't as reveleaing as how many people are flying around amarrian ships. Everyone and their mother made caldari archura, what we need to know is what kind of ships are being flown around. The problem is with amarrian ships, not amarrian characters, no? So we need to look at the ships being piloted. It's possible that many of those amarrians aren't even flying amarrian ships. Maybe 10% of the ships in EVE are amarrian. I would think that would be a good indicator that some of the amarrian ships are viewed as sub par.
NoobALTS	Posted - 2007.11.13 15:00:00 - [28] Amarrian ships is the problem meaning less new players bother keeping Amarr chars as their mains. Currently, Amarr SP is a waste, and it is far better to get a few hundred k of SP head start on non-Amarr related Skills by remaking your char rather than keeping it. BTW, The most popular Amarr ship, taken straight from the dev blog, is the Bestower. Now that is tellng you something!
Xaroth Brook Minmatar Doomcraft Mech Ops Syndicate	Posted - 2007.11.13 15:01:00 - [29] there's a reason why people don't play amarr .. ever tried to make an amarr char that doesn't look like absolute ****? -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Xaroth Brook CEO Doomcraft -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Look ma, my sig is too good to be highjacked by the mods
Xaca'tecas	Posted - 2007.11.13 15:03:00 - [30] What's the problem? I created this new character because i wanted an amarr due to the pretty good attributes you get. The ships? dunno, proably never will since i'm aiming for gallente ships...
