Gwendion Gallente No Quarter. Vae Victis.	Posted - 2008.05.18 04:53:00 - [11] I say its perfect revenge for the cowardly tactics the Caldari used in the first war. Revenge for terrorism! Down with Caldari! And to indoctrinate their children from an early age spouting lies about this terrorist killing innocent Gallentaen and Caldarians alike as some sort of National Hero? Its disgusting. Disgusting.

Don't even need to see the specifics. EVERYONE who is in an alliance is excluded 100% from faction warfare. This is both shortsighted and stupid. Expansions retain veterans by giving them new stuff. This expansion, since it excludes... oh, say... 100% of everyone who is in the 0.0 alliance endgame completely FAILS on that account. This makes me wonder if CCP made a mistake and actually hired some dumbasses from the Star Wars Galaxies NGE team to make an expansion for them. Think on this... OK, the empires are going to war... Do you NOT think that they'd WANT to enlist the support of the many empires in their own right bordering them? If for no other reason than to make sure they DONT support their enemies! In essence, this PVP expansion is aimed at people who don't pvp and is structured to exclude from it those who by and large make up most of the active pvp'ers. This is as stupid as coming up with an industrial/mining content expansion that prohibits anyone who can fly a hulk from taking part in. My opinions are my own and do not reflect those of my corporation or alliance.

This makes me wonder if CCP made a mistake and actually hired some dumbasses from the Star Wars Galaxies NGE team to make an expansion for them. Perhaps if you checked the alliance rankings and counted the number of people that are actually in alliances, you'd realize that a relatively small % of the eve population is actually at this so-called "end game." If you actually paid attention to the dev communications, you'd realize that they want to get MORE people to said "end game." Their approach to doing so is to ease the transition from the safety of empire to the utter lack thereof in 0.0. Maybe this approach will work and maybe it won't, but at least they're willing to give a novel solution a try. But should it succeed, it will be a boon to those already in 0.0, because it will increase the population out there, which should make for a more dynamic place to live. Really, you people already in 0.0 need to stop the "gimme a new toy, mama!" whine when there are already more ship classes than there are effective roles for in pvp anyway. It's a terrible shame that the best intentions of those who have spent years developing and growing EvE can be so easily twisted and misunderstood.

It's a terrible shame that the best intentions of those who have spent years developing and growing EvE can be so easily twisted and misunderstood. Not going to do that, mate. By excluding alliances from faction warfare, here is what's going to happen: 1. Existing empire players will be lured to places they are vulnerable with little consequence (lowsec) by the content. They will be going to static areas that are well known. 2. They will be fodder for exiting pirates AND alliance players ****ed off by their exclusion from faction warfare. 3. Within weeks if not days everything involved in this expansion becomes irrelevant because the empire carebears who DONT pvp in the existing game (because they are too inexperienced or don't like it) realize that they aren't protected by CONCORD and will repeatedly DIE horribly to pirates if they engage in faction warfare. 4. This could be mitigated if alliances were brought in. Want this to be a bridge to real pvp? What better than to have empire players already have standings towards pvp 0.0 alliances based on the fact that they are supporting the faction that an alliance decides to throw in with? This would be a given, since any alliance wanting to participate in faction warfare would naturally be penalized for shooting blues declared to the same faction in the battle areas...

I won't be.. Because I am anti pirate, and I am not allowed to engage in it because of my corp and alliance policies... But I'm with ya in spirit. I think that to prove a point all the faction warfare hubs should become "warp there to die" camps made up of those not allowed to participate, ie, alliances. What better way to prove the point that excluding alliances is far worse than letting them be a part of it! Since CCP sees fit to NOT engage the community on the huge objections to what this expansion is bringing in, well, my opinion at this time is, they need to release it as fast as they can so that it will die it's mandated death in the first week, so that they can then move on to the next expansion which might actually have something worthwhile. The good news is that faction warfare isn't mandatory, which means that once it's exposed as the deathtrap for empire players that it is, it will become as irrelevant as the cumbersome and unfun COSMOS missions. Sad, because it could have been so much more. My opinions are my own and do not reflect those of my corporation or alliance.

I don't have to to run missions for Caldari corporations. Those who are enthusiastic about this expansion think that somehow CONCORD is going to protect them. They aren't. The griefing options opened by this expansion are so endless that they will immediately END participation in it. The pirate corps are licking their chops over this. Indeed, most of the blind defenders of excluding alliances ARE the pirates, who want their bonanza of empire ganks to come uninhibited by alliances that could destroy them.

You are part of the Intrepid crossing, and you stand by their beliefs. How do caldari know you are to be trusted. Alliances are their own factions, and since Im apart of the caldari faction and I dont like you, the rest of the caldari must not like you either... _______________________________________________ Yes, in the back, the idiot with the dumb question?

I still have very high standings. I don't lose any by pvp'ing. My character IS a Caldari. Why wouldn't the Caldari State not want to, uh, say ally with the powerful alliances to help them out? You know the empires are WELL aware of the many large entities that exist outside the space they control, some of which rival THEM in strength... You don't think they'd all go to war with each other while ignoring them? It's not like some of the NPC factions don't seem like, uh, 0.0 alliances aligned with an empire is it?

Moe2	Posted - 2008.05.18 06:21:00 - [28] I have to agree that people will probably leave 0.0 to join FW and it will be a good thing for all of EVE to do so. I have been in 0.0 awhile and know that there is little money out there unless your corp is on top and you are one of the higher ups in that corp. People are out there to PvP but rarely get the chance. Meanwhile the higher ups are making bank building titans to secure themselves in their high towers. I was never in a corp that was on top and never was a higher up and I don't want to sit in corp after corp toiling away for the little scraps of PvP I get. Not only will the expansion give us PvP, but will also give me a rank. With that rank comes a bit of pride for fighting for a cause. There may not be much money in it, but at least there will be some compensation and recognition for my actions. We are not out there to toil away for you, we are out there for PvP. As EA is released 0.0 corps will need to start really compensating their members or they will fall apart. The man on the bottom of the totem pole does make a difference. If you don't recognize it, at least it will be fun to watch you fall.
Ranger 1 Amarr Shiva Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2008.05.18 06:34:00 - [29] I believe that allowing Alliances was considered, but not all of the tools were in place to do so. I don't think it is unwise of CCP to start with the basics, work out the kinks, and then see what can be done about allowing 0.0 alliances some way to participate without screwing up the whole system. Just relax, see what happens, use an alt to participate for now and assess how well or how badly faction warfare is implemented. Yep, thats right, actually help get things to the point where alliance participation is possible rather than throwing tantrums. What a concept.
Chavette'd'Bling	Posted - 2008.05.18 08:01:00 - [30] EVE has had factional war in it since day one, there have been corp's that took the fight for thier faction then they built into alliances in the course of 5 years. all this time FW has been in eve but its been getting done by "the roleplayers" and there for avoided by the non rolplayers. as it stands atm CCP have shafted the rolplayers good and hard, here is the factional warfare we have been promising you for 5 years and hey YOU cant be involved, now all the fanboys and dev alts are posting how much CCP have put into it and people should wait as it will all iron itself out just like the lag issues and UI issues have.

All in all, I hate to say it, but CCP has made a huge blunder with this expansion. They are literally doing a Star Wars Galaxies here, they are adding something based on a target audience that doesn't exist... They are making a pvp expansion aimed at those who DONT pvp, who aren't READY for pvp, and those who will NEVER pvp, while thumbing their noses at those who... PVP. What would be more productive would be to deal with the players CCP has, instead of the players they wish they had. Fact of the matter is, there is a certain percentage who will NEVER leave empire, and who will NEVER want to pvp. Only way they can change that is to alter pvp so that it alienates those who do pvp. This expansion is a step in that direction. What CCP needs to do is add things for those who won't pvp under any circumstances, and for those who live under the current alliance system who only want to pvp. This expansion satisfies neither. Well actually I PvP, am I'm looking forward to this expansion immensley. I don't have the time to do the whole 0.0 thing, that was one of the big reasons I left the alliance I was part of. With FW there will be the chance for small gang PvP without spending hours roaming round looking for people to fight. I will love that, and I'm sure there will be other PvPers who will love it for the same reason. I'm sure there will be lots of pirates camping the low sec areas and podding newbs, but it's not restricted to low sec, and it won't just be newbs taking part. With the help of the PvPers who will play FW, those newbs won't remain newbs for much longer. And frankly the whole "0.0 alliances are going to grief people playing FW to protest being exlcuded" probably highlights why CCP excluded alliances in the first place, because it would be alliance players massacering people getting into PvP and so ironically denying themselves new recruits. I mean the whole point of FW is to try and get more people into PvP, which can only be a good thing for 0.0 alliances as people playing FW look to move onto the end game of EVE as you will, 0.0.

Granmethedon III The Wild Hunt Pure.	Posted - 2008.05.18 09:37:00 - [36] Here's the thing; CCP have said themselves that they're trying to use this as a way to get more people into 0.0; it's a bridge between the two. So why are they forcing the people already there to have to leave their 0.0 alliance in order to take part? If anything, all that will happen is the 0.0 population will decrease as the people who want smaller gang pvp join faction warfare; and those who don't want to pvp will continue to not want to pvp and be completely unaffected.

Well what I got from his post was that because there will be lots of new people taking part in PvP because of FW that they will be put off by the ganks etc. by low sec pirates. My counter point was that there will likely be enough PvPers interested in FW to be able to deal with low sec pirates, or at least make them less of a problem. Plus with experienced PvPers taking art in FW they can help teach those new to PvP and help make them better at it, resulting in more competent PvPers, and then you've got more people able to deal with low sec pirates. ------
Something Random Gallente Aliastra	Posted - 2008.05.18 09:56:00 - [39] 0.0 alliances already have there own factional warfare with each other. This expansion is to bring a little flavour of the warfare 0.0 alliances enjoy currently to the mission runners and young characters in empire. An offering up of the so called carebears to come and try the war thing and actually see what its like. Why cant you understand that ? Its only going to be good for the game in the end as it acts as a first stepping stone into the pond of pvp which all of you claim to want to see more of. The content available to 0.0 players is vast, you have your toys alreaqdy and have been enjoying them for years now. Just look forward to your new recruits, already versed in the dark arts through the struggle for their chosen empire. The only people who genuinely lose out are the role playing alliances who obviously would love to join the fray. These guys i feel sorry for but im sure their imagination can find themselves a role to play in the end. I cant wait to see how it all pans out really. It has the potential to be a very exciting edition to the game.

What i read in his post was that CCP have spent a lot of time and energy developing this to encourage people to PvP, this is where it fails there are people in eve who will never ever PvP ever no mater how enticing it is. if they did want top pvp ther e have been factions doing pvp since day one why didnt they join them ? because they dont want to pvp.

Well of course there will never be those who will PvP, we can't expect everyone to do so. However I think FW will encourage those who are bored of missions(I mean they are really boring), but who are put off PvP/low sec by stories about pirate ganks etc. In FW there will be a lod of other people on their side in the area who can help them, and so help them work out how to beat those and get them into PvP. Plus with FW sounding like it will have missions that involve going into enemy territory it sounds like it will mean more fun missions. And frankly that's the main appeal of FW to mean, it sounds like it will be fun. Easy to find PvP involving small gangs and with some RP involved as well. I'm sure it won't be perfect, and will have it's problems, but I think it's a good thing. ------

I can think of many possible reasons why someone might not want to join existing alliances but might still have an interest in PvP; for such people (including me, tbh) this expansion might be interesting. I agree with the "roleplayers have been shafted" sentiment though. At this time it seems like a costly choice is facing them, but for no clear reason. I haven't read any counter to the point that corporations can exceed an alliance in size, and still join. Is there one?

The simple point that it upsets/annoys alliances should be sufficient. It is in my book. Frankly CCP needs to exclude any character that is in an NPC corp as well.

Im a fairly new player. I want to pvp. I joined RedvsBlue and it was mostly purple ops and blobs, I didnt get much pvp, it was boring, I left. I joined a 0.0 corp, we got station camped 23/7, it was boring, I left. I joined a low sec corp, everyone wanted to be friends, I didnt get any pvp, it was boring, I left. So now I roam high sec baiting people or asking for 1vs1's. FW is for people like me, and there's a lot of us. The truth is, I dont want to go and join some big alliance to be at the bottom of the ladder, having to log on at certain times for op's only to wait around for hours before I can use use my warp scrambler for a few seconds before getting blown up. Being a tackler for some big alliance and working my way up the ranks over time dosnt appeal to me, whereas FW does. FW isnt for the big 0.0 alliances, its for the little man like myself to get into pvp without all the hassle.

Telemicus Thrace Thrace Inc Ushra'Khan	Posted - 2008.05.18 12:08:00 - [50] Originally by: Ranger 1 Just relax, see what happens, use an alt to participate for now and assess how well or how badly faction warfare is implemented. Yep, thats right, actually help get things to the point where alliance participation is possible rather than throwing tantrums. This, this is what we should do. Thatis the short version of what I was saying in this thread. I will certainly throw an alt into faction warfare, RP it up as part of the militia and generally have a laugh and make this all work out. I will also be attacking Amarr militia pilots in low sec. This is not griefing, this is not a protest. It's role playing. The Amarr are my enemy, their militia is my enemy. See, Eve has non-consensual PvP and non-consensual RP, business as usual. Rockin'
Major Death Caldari Sarz'na Khumatari Ushra'Khan	Posted - 2008.05.18 12:21:00 - [51] I envy the pirate corps who are going to have a turkey shoot when FW starts up. CCP did say they wanted to improve the game for Low Sec pirates! My original sig was 'Enjoy lag free play in a dynamic space MMORPG'. It was removed for lack of EVE content! ;) CCP say 'Shut up about bugs and eat your eye candy!'

And why would people pirate in low sec and lose sec status when they can do it and not lose sec status after all people camp low sec to get action and well ccp is bringin the action without having to camp low sec. And no 0.0 alliacnes are going to suffer apart from losing there members get over it, people play the game for fun not for your enjoyement.
Jaden Corral Caldari State War Academy	Posted - 2008.05.18 13:51:00 - [53] Originally by: Gwendion I say its perfect revenge for the cowardly tactics the Caldari used in the first war. Revenge for terrorism! Down with Caldari! And to indoctrinate their children from an early age spouting lies about this terrorist killing innocent Gallentaen and Caldarians alike as some sort of National Hero? Its disgusting. Disgusting. Cowardly? terrorism? the actions of the Gallente were little better, and at least we didn't come running for peace with our tails between our legs like some slaver hound the minute we thought we were in trouble, Tovil-Toba was and is a great hero of the state, he saved millions, and any Caldari killed during his attack on the Gallente homeworld would have gladly died in order to revenge Caldari Prime!

Feilamya Minmatar Pelennor Swarm	Posted - 2008.05.18 15:53:00 - [55] This expansion is not an expansion. It is a rollercoaster built into a sandbox. Spread the word. I don't want CCP to keep using the word "sandbox" in their presentations without feeling at least a little bit guilty for this latest crime they did to their own product and the community.

Considering the Gallente citizens and the troops the Gallente landed on Caldari Prime, it wasn't the massive orbital bombardment people keep trying to make it out to be. It was kinetic strikes against viable military targets in an effort to retake the planet. Unlike the Caldari strikes against CIVILIAN population centers.
