So, basically, you bought a lawnmower and are now upset that you need to have a lawn and grow some grass on it for your new toy to be of any use?

What's the point of bringing down Titan for the sake of bringing it down.
Why climb a mountain?
Maybe you just don't understand ≡v≡… |

I may not understand EVE, but respect, culture and civilized behavior I understand well.
Well then… Welcome to ≡v≡ — a 100% PvP game where none of those matter beyond what they provide in the way of beating everyone else. |

You want to balance things, make PvP amongs equals and let's see how that works out.
EVE is better balanced in this regard than pretty much every other game out there. You have the same chance and opportunity as everyone else to make your mark. Just go do it.

The documentation is there. The reason you got burned was because you didn't read it before charging ahead.

Demoralization seems to be a variable CCP didn't take into account.
Except, of course, that the retention numbers for EVE players beyond their newbie days are very very high, and that they're currently changing the new-player experience. |

"Buy analyzer" sound easy enough. But can I use it. NO! Why??? No info IN THE GAME!!!
Then maybe you shouldn't have bought it until you figured out what it was for.
Have you plunked down the cash for a siege module yet? |

No, prerequisite has too many reds in it.
Wrong answer. You still haven't learned, apparently.
The correct answer is either "I don't know what it does" or "I don't have what's required to used it" (which is a completely separate thing from the skill prerequisites). |

Let's say you want to buy a cruiser. According to you logic, description for it should include cruiser skill, but shouldn't have any mention of Spaceship Command. That part you should figure out for yourself. And you should be able to train cruiser skill, but when it came to getting into a ship, just get an error message.
No. According to my logic, Spaceship Command would be listed since it's a prerequisite. However, medium guns and missiles and their respective upgrades, tanking mods, drones, propulsion mods, ewar mods, and logistics modules would not be listed, nor would the cap skills, the shield and armour skills, or the fitting and upgrade skills required to actually make any use of it.
Your problem is that you assume that "prerequisite" leads directly to "use". That is not the case for anything in the game. The prerequisites only tell you what is required to be able to use a piece of equipment in its right context. How to actually use it, and what the context for that use is, is a completely different matter. It is also almost univerally open to user cleverness, and in constant flux, so documenting it is pointless. |

Description for Analyzer: "A archeology system used to analyse and search ancient ruins." (Yes, guys, in the game analyZe is spelled with an "S")
You do know that “analyse” is spelt with an ‘s’, right?
Quote:
And that's it. No more misdirection.
There was no misdirection to begin with — only your unwillingness to read up on how archµology works in this game.

Incorrect.
Quote:
And you do know that there is no such word "to analyse" in the English that I know?
I know that you don't know this, yes. It doesn't make what you know correct.
