ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 14:03:00 - [1] As if mission deadspaces werent hard e-fuicking-nough to probe out and kill people in, now you want to add WHOLE SYSTEMS THAT YOU CANT PHYSICALLY EVEN GET INTO, to ensure MAX-PVE. what the ****? seriously, if you jsut want to move this game towards even more solo-pve then just tell me so i can unsubscribe right away.
ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 14:09:00 - [2] oh and more content based around the BRILLIANT probing system* that we all know and love! worst *ing feature in eve by far, who the came up with the idea of clicking scan every 5 minutes and thought that would be fun and exciting? seriously, give me just 1 **ing reply in this thread that states they enjoy probing. just 1.

Sure they'll be able to mine and gank rats in peace, but if their exit wormhole to 'safe' space collapses, they may end up in having to carry a metric crapton of expensive loot right through your back yard what the **? you actually think logistics can be intercepted if both parties are equally competent? wow, just wow. no, for fights to occur you need 2 opposing groups of people, at the point of the valuable resource, at the same time and with no choice of just waiting the other guys out and going second.
ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 14:19:00 - [4] Originally by: Shevar I really hope you guys don't turn it into a riskless carebear heaven :s. the only potential upside with wormholes is that they MAY leave local out, but im guessing there will be a **ing local channel even in these TOTALLY UNEXPLORED wormholes since ccp seems to be catering to the bored-with-wow crowd. anyway, judging by the post then there will be so many **ing wormholes that chances of finding someone in one will be somewhere around 0. and really, you guys think 0.0 is too crowded? really? around 80% of all 0.0 systems are completely empty most of the time. go in-game right now, go to map, click people in space last 30mins and you can see entire regions with maybe a combined 20 people in them.

Uhm...did you miss the part where I mentioned we're revamping the scanning system? It's the bullet-pointed list about half-way down. I think you missed the part where a revamp just wont cut it for that ing tumor of a game mechanic, cut that ** out and you might live. (ANALOGIES)
ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 15:38:00 - [6] Quote: And while there are still thrills to be had, there exists at the back of many of our minds the nagging knowledge that we are not the first to venture here. That the maps have been drawn, the anchorages charted, the wild hills surveyed and the paths trodden so often they're now four-lane blacktop highways with shopping malls and 24-hour burger bars along the fringes. So what? It's not exactly the most common complaint about eve, but really, do you want to wander around in some totally empty wasteland with no other people in sight, clicking scan every couple minutes to hope you find a site with ****ed NPCs that you can kill with so little effort, that the most common PVE question in Eve is about what setups you can AFK with? Or do you want your world to be crowded with actual PLAYERS fighting over SCARCE resources, creating the content on their own with PVP, instead of your elaborate and time consuming effort to create PVE ** that's so bland and boring that it's only done for the sake of farming?
ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 19:20:00 - [7] Originally by: Maria Kalista 1: this sounds EPIC. 2: this will be EPIC. 3: need to find a corp, this is definitely not something for a NPC corp hugger. yes good lord, how would you do instanced PVE all on your own!

It's not instanced. C. When you add thousands of generic systems to an already barren and generic 0.0, and then think this will lead to anything but, in practice, instanced PVE, then you're just ****ing stupid. C.
ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 19:35:00 - [9] Originally by: CCP Whisper The new scanner system, new probes and probe launchers will all use the existing skills you have trained up. The aim is to make the level you have trained a skill up to still be relevant, so if you have invested time in getting a certain skill up, you will still get the benefit of this. Please take into account that balancing of the system has yet to be completed, so at this point we cannot commit to exactly how this will look. Allow me to translate: its **ing PROBING bro, it's going to suck balls no matter what we do! but hey, we've added some extra timers and to balance that ** OUT so you wont be able to FARM sites at least! so stick to high sec missions, it'll pay better long-term anyway and with the probe changes its not like anyone will be able to find you!
ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 19:36:00 - [10] imagine i said something about everything ccp has released the last 12 months has been pre-nerfed and forgotten to ensure no one actually uses it so dont get too excited i would have typed it in but im not sure how i'd get it in there, you know?

ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 19:41:00 - [11] Originally by: Cailais An "instance" is a replicated game area for only one group of players. Anyone entering that area joins a seperate (universe) game area. i.e you jump into amarr, so do I, but we are in different 'instances' and cannot interact or even 'see' one another. Linkage Who's stupid now huh? C. Yeah, who's stupid now ok so it's still you, bummer C.

ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 19:49:00 - [13] are you trolling me?
ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 20:29:00 - [14] Originally by: MotherMoon I really hope some wormhole systems will have multiple ways in, so that people from different parts of space could meet up and have some good PvP. YESSSSSSSSSS lets risk our ****ty pve ships to do some PVP in systems that can potentially be a hundred jumps away from the nearest station. or you know, just hit that scan button again and farm one of the other five thousand identical wormhole systems.
ardik GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2009.01.26 20:50:00 - [15] Originally by: MotherMoon you know by ardiks logic, every system in eve is an instance if you've ever tried ratting/exploring in 0.0, it might as well be
