Jack all, thats what. If CCP don't like a certain use of the game mechanics, then they can fix the hole, like they have done many times over. Until that happens, or until CCP make a public announcement specifically ruling that something is a cheating exploit, then anyone is free to use the game mechanics to their own advantage.
Might be true - but you will still get banned - just like they have done in the past.
EVE a PvP game ? - rofl EVE is a sandbox
When did sandbox mean PvP?
I always felt sorry for those that think they are better because they PvP over non-PvP'ers - it is like only playing in one small area of the sandbox - I really try to play in the whole sandbox. I PvP, trade, build, gank and a lot more. I dont gank must more - as it is FARE too easy and no challenge. But I guess some people love that it is not a challenge in any way |

I agree with you that EVE is a multiplayer sandbox -
But again - multiplayer does not mean PvP 
It means you interact with other players. In EVE you can do so by shooting other players in the face with ship cannons and take their stuff - and I'm fin with that. I want to able to do so always - BUT with the current game rules - it's FARE to easy, and no challenge. I would love it to be harder and more of a challenge - then I would start doing it again 
Ganking in it's current form = Taking candy from infants
Something all should be able to do - but not take pride in |

Tippia - by your logic - minecraft is a PvP game  And we can all just do what we like.....
That is not true at all - we all have to follow the game rules - As I cannot just build a ship that can haul more than 10K and still defend itself - they dont excist. And there is NO ship in EVE that cannot be ganked. It is all down to how CCP sets up the rules - and nothing else. The current rules are just clearly in favour of attackers in HS.
Ofcourse, one can argue that is fine. What do we need ore, items and ships for anyway?
CCP is a company that needs to look after it's players wishes - and if most people are happy with the things are - keep the rule. If not - change it. Otherwise expect most players to leave long term - and this will in turn kill EVE (Just like the NEX issue)
Game rules should ALWAYS be improved to the player base's wishes. Be it some old rules regards Concord or the NEX. Otherwise the game will grow "old" or seen as bad, and players will leave.
Fair enough that you and others like the current rules - also fair enough a lot of others dont. Crying about that they just need to accept that current rules as they are. How obstinately is that ? Plus as usefull as *BIP*
Anyways - what do I care - I'm fine either way, and am fairly sure CCP is already working on the HS rules as it is. And I'm willing to bet that they are not going to make it easier to gank, but more likely harder :D |
