Originally by: Max Torps Yes. I agree with Goumindong that 0.0 players are intensely connected with Empire and their gameplay is affected by changes there because many 0.0 players do actually play in Empire too.
I have done most things in empire with the exception of cosmos missions and invention, I do live in 0.0 as stated. The alliance I'm in is a tiny alliance that is not currently affiliated with any in the Great War. In fact, it was because of lack of decent pvp (we don't like lagfests or blobbing) in the great war that we left that and decided to go it alone. We also left the sovereignty game behind and abandoned our outpost because it just wasn't fun anymore.
So I understand not only the Empire side of things as we go there often and have a presence there in any case, but many of the complaints that the pvp'ers have about blobbing, lagfests and sovereignty as well as the people in between who just want to pvp, because that's where we are at now.
I can see, and to some point understand, this huge divide that appears to exist between Empire dwellers and those in 0.0 but some candidates are capitalising on this unfairly imho. 0.0 players regularly go to Empire for extended breaks and Empire is vital from a logistics point of view.
All fine and dandy and I agree with you that a lot of 0.0 players play in hi-sec too. But that does not mean that they understand or share the concerns of players that live ONLY in hi-sec, those that do not PVP but instead need to get their excitement elsewhere.
Those that run the same dull missions day in day out, or those that spend most of their time staring at roids, sit in stations watching the markets to see if anyone undercut their prices again, or those that are fully dedicated to researching and producing the stuff we all use. Those that spend their playing time doing the same things all day and have no PVP and large alliance of friends to fall back to.
POS warfare might be boring and repetetive, but that's not the only part of Eve that could use some spice. ---
