>Can I make enough ISK to PLEX during the trial?
If you have to ask, you can't do it.

>I just started, what should I do?
Do the Opportunities then find the Career Agents & run all of their missions; they give you ISK, ships, skillbooks and teach you basics. Talk to players and try to find a corp. The game is only as boring as you are.

>Is it too late to start playing EVE?
No.

Reposting for the sake of getting more answers.

How do I get into gas reactions? I like huffing, and I've been told that if I turn the gas into polymers can make me far more isk than just huffing.

So far all of the articles/guides I've looked at seem to be pretty dense and complex if I wanna make any big returns. Is the autism of figuring this out really worth what polymers will get me over the raw gas?

Fixed.

It supposedly has crafting? So, that's probably an economy and industry.
>>
>>149727225
The fitting is absolutely garbage, it has the same PG as the kestrel but has to fit 3 more launchers.

It has extremely poor agility and speed.

Fitting is an extreme issue as you can't fit tank and your missiles with a prop in any meta form that isn't the compact models.
>>
>why can't I fit large long range weapons with tank and prop on a destroyer
>>
>>149736414
you can do it with every other destroyer.

It has the same PG as the kestrel and has to fit 3 more lauchers. wheres the fucking logic in that
>>
>>149736414
Even with a prop, it's mobility is garbage anyway.
>>
>>149736613
1453 is the max speed with a 5mn compact MWD

that might be the slowest in the game. Even a plated dragoon or coercer is faster

Right on, CMDR! No grieffing or market gaming in Elite. Who wants to deal with gold sellers? Heck, even CCP encourages gold selling with plex or whatever it is this game uses. Industry is dumb, why can't the game just have modules and ships that I can buy? Why limit it to some stinky dork that sets prices so high that no one can afford anything?

Nice post CMDR, very much appreciated in dispelling the toxic eve online environment.

Did you see the devs rolled back some nasty pirates actions? Very nice of them to do that, this is a sandbox game but there should be very strict limits on shooting other people and I think combat strays too far into griefing when it's Player vs Player.

desu ccp are kind of floundering with the updates. they have no structure, plot, or backing behind them, they're just kind of adding easy things which they can quickly churn out with a small team or iterating on previous things.

it'll take a lot to really get eve revving again, more than just "hey 3 new structure aren't they amazing?", maybe check back in a year or two.

I really don't understand what you're trying to say.
>>
>>149744964
Maplestory has shit gameplay and depth. It's not a fair contrast.

>>149745037
>as if there isn't competition everywhere
There aren't that many places with activity, and the EVE subs are on top of shit.

>>149745049
If there was more to do, the game would be a better experience. There's not, and it's because skilling into anything is a fucking chore, not to mention the sorta awful PvE, and not to mention the time it takes to find decent PvP.

There's an article about SWG design and how it based everything on gettting players to log in just for a few minutes as much as possible, with offline production queues (like EVE), et al. It featured *the fastest advancement of any competing MMO*. EVE provides some activity options, but they're ultimately scanning-tier, and GATED. The interested can't figure out the full game, or even get fucking loaded (there was a story of a player finding a Nyx in space -- newbs couldn't even get in it even though it has autopilot), and invite all their buddies to do the same.

I've observed the serpentis event. The reason they did the whole 10k sp/day and the bloodraider event and then have scaled them down progressively to weaker versions is because they're trying to identify what it takes to make people log in to a subscription based game that's too boring otherwise.

EVE will never go F2P it wouldn't survive the transition. What it can do however is identify that mythical Minimum Viable Product that will keep people engaged and logging in.

As for me I don't even know what it would take for EVE to be exciting again, I'm out of ideas. I think it might actually be beyond redemption at this point.

>>149760126
check today's broadcast as he warps towards I1Y, he was rambling about how INRI wouldn't ever fight him when he was around Brave etc. Even while Brave were killing him he wouldn't shut up about us.

A while ago we fragged his archon (https://zkillboard.com/kill/55093200/) while he was burning it near a major timer. He then couldn't handle the bantz and started chimping out on INRI dudes. N0FUN had killed him a few times prior to this as well.

Now everytime he goes through Querious he gets Brave to scout him (so he can go feed them) or he'll literally turn around if he thinks Broski will kill him.

He also literally has a ping off the Brave station where he goes to feed every time he visits I1Y, it wouldn't surprise me if he is paid to go there to die to them at this point.

tl;dr thx for the blog, retard streamer is easy to upset and you should all aspire to snipe him.

I have access to every ship in the game bar titans. I can do literally any activity I want to - bar titan related shit. It's not a matter of SP for me it's a matter of motivation and EVE is very poor at providing meaningful motivations for long-time players other than the shallow exercise of creating an institution like PL and CFC. Which it has to be said are primarily famous within EVEs tiny population and not remotely important outside of CCP's halls or their own transient empires.

We are talking about how as someone with 8+ years of play time in EVE, with access to do anything I want to should I want to I find nothing compelling to do because nothing ever evolves in this game. For 5 fucking years they've been rebalancing the ships and for at least 3 they have been talking about creating and linking to new space via player built structures.

Maybe these large timespans are a result of completely reworking at badly written game with spaghetti code like crazy? I used to read all the CSM summits before that fucking tard redditor Dolan or whatever got on board and bogged everything down. I used to care more, but I can't anymore. If I log in it's for like 20 seconds to update a market order or production job and then log off again and this is not compelling enough for me to warrant any further use of the service.

>the problem is the game itself
Not an argument. The industry can't figure that out because all the activities seeming productive are behind hundreds of million SP.

>PvP is the only real SP-gated activity
Bull. Try reprocessing to make some extra dosh without the skill points.

>85% of the game is boring
Already addressed this point. And progressing up the class chain, from cruisers through a titan, would be super entertaining for a huge demographic that likes not only min-maxing (basically every demographic, and that ranges from ship fits being proper through ISK-making potential, recruitment, experiences..) but also getting what they pay for. YOU'RE not realizing that paying $15/mo. for 10% of a game isn't fulfilling. Fulfillment and fantasy and roleplay is exactly why MMORPGs are played.

>>149761294
>you won't know WHAT to do
>gating guarantees content
No. It's not helpful for experiencing the game, recruitment, excitement from realizing that you're fitted properly (even if you lost the fight, instead of being able to blame shitty SP for losing) and that you did your best and should git gud. It doesn't help corps defend themselves against greater-SP corps. It doesn't allow them to make proper ISK. It undermines every single point in playing the game, and you're sitting here on your shit-hill trying to imply that gamers can't figure out what they'd like to do in a sandbox MMO. The games existed before EVE, m8, and they would after. There's evidence already posted that having quick progression in a market of leveling drivel is helpful. That may not be a titan, but it sure wouldn't be challenging to get a carrier and experience some advanced PvP anomalies. They could fly around in space checking for un-teathered titans. They could mine with proper barges at work instead of ship spinning, because they can't commit to PvP but would like to chat with their corp.

>>
here is the problem with Eve:

Once you've exhausted the motivation to log in and grind for isk like a cuck by repeating the same sites over and over again there really isn't much else to really drive someone to log in.

And PvP? Here is why people pvp: The isk the took to grind and buy that ship has time value. That's it. That's where the "fun" is in pvp. You strip that away and what you have left are literal bubbles with 3D ships GUI that tricks the user into thinking they are flying a ship. There is no trick, or player-dependent skills in pvp. At best you can left-click on the direction you want your ship to go, but that is very much useless. Even the hardcore fanboys realize this is not a fun game.

k good luck doing anything meaningful in a fight that will last 10 seconds at best.

No, clicking on space like a retard isn't a strategy, let alone when it takes the server a second to process your commands. You add up all the commands you need to input to really do anything meaningful and literally half the fight time will be lost due to server ticks. This game wasn't made for "elite 1v1s cuckscope xXx420xXx" it's just a glorified MMO Homeworld. You are supposed to blob and set goals "for the greater good of the alliance", but there are none that you can set aside from cucking yourself into owning some null space by being a bitch to someone bigger.

You can't really find good fits on websites anymore. The meta changes far too often and the community doesn't really support sharing of fits for a number of reasons (everyone thinks they can do it better, really good stuff tends to stay hidden).

You should download EFT and play with it to learn to make your own fits. It's crucial to having a good experience.

Also, just as a warning, L4s, especially in a Rattlesnake, are a bore and slow money. Consider joining All-Out and doing C3 wormhole sites in your rattle, like most of the corp does. It's more exciting and more profitable, and you get access to gang PVP.
>>
>>149772560
this. I just dont see much motivation to play anymore. Why would I want to make ISK? To PvP? PvP is 90% unprofitable, there is not much skill involved and pretty much no rewards at all unless you are fighting over a tech moon.

I'm already into trading. I resubbed about a month ago and with my capital I can easily make 400m per day, even more on weekends. The point is that trading in Jita is boring and I want to do something in-between checking if I have been undercut.

Tried the path of the industrialist years ago and concluded that without multiboxing for mining materials, a high sec pos and a significant time investment, it's just not going to be as profitable as station trading. Kudos if you manage to do it with a single alt.
>>
>>149783947

I really enjoy doing it, and I make more than enough to plex each month, so that's why I don't really bother with multiboxing. You can find very good items to build on the market, just have to search for them for a bit. Trading gives you way more turnover since you can exploit large margins but finding some good products to build and trade, and researching your prints in between every now and again, you can get excellent passive income that I dare say beats PI. I don't really look at my ISK per hour/day and yeah, if you don't enjoy doing it just for the sake of doing it, industry isn't going to be much more fun than trading.

The potential of an MMO is doing whatever you have the option to. If that's AFK mining at work, you're fulfilling something that can pay dividends later. If there was unlimited access to marketing and industry "SP unlocks", players would find their niches and play them as they came up.

>>
>>149788809
No it wasn't. 280mm's are in a league beyond the thrasher and has nothing to do with the fact that the corax's lack of fitting disables it from all sorts of basic fits. The thrasher has more than enough fitting but 280's aren't available for a ludicrous number of ships.

Its not fucking stupid, artillery on the frig platform is limited to just the svipul because nothing else has the PG to effectively use them

>you can't say the corax sucks

the corax sucks because of its lack of fitting, it has to fit 3 more launchers than the kestrel despite only having 4 more PG. It has to use tons of fitting mods just for rocket launcher fits. Its super slow and its lack of CPU disables it from using any real T2 mods like a warp disruptor.

the corax can't get any sort of tank out of it regardless of the fit purely because it has such limited CPU and limited PG. Having no room for virtually any combination that doesn't involve either a microaux mod or multiple anciliary current routers

meanwhile the thrasher? doesn't need any of that.

>Its not fucking stupid, artillery on the frig platform is limited to just the svipul because nothing else has the PG to effectively use them

what, kind of like how the corax can't fit lmls? a rocket corax can fit plenty of stuff, what are you talking about

>meanwhile the thrasher? doesn't need any of that.

it actually does, unless you for some reason decide that 280s are some kind of special gun you aren't allowed to fit

>>149790006
so you think 90% of minmatar ships have massive fitting problems, and you're going on about how shit the corax is. I think you should kys yourself too desu
>>
>>149790225
>what, kind of like how the corax can't fit lmls?
there are tons of other ships that fit the LML's just fine

talware, condor, hell even the breacher can do effective LML kiting fits. meanwhile the corax simply can't

>rocket corax
without using at least a microaux because you'll be damned to try and get an MSE with your corax to work

that's retarded mincecraft isn't about pvp, it's about virtual legos. You are comparing apples and oranges.

once again this all boils down to eve players unable to take criticism.

There are plenty of problem in this game. And I mean plenty. From lack luster PvE, to lackluster PvP, to lackluster rewards. I mean, fuck, that's pretty much the entire game, lackluster. The Lore is literally 10/10 one of the best I've seen. A breath of fresh air in a sea of dungeons and dragons that most MMO's lore seem to fucking be. And even then CCP can't even take advantage of that, I mean, holy fucking shit, go take a look at the half-assed event they put out before fucking off to vacation for the summer.

It's un-fucking-believable.

It's this insane tradition of making everything as tedious as possible to pretend that it somehow has "depth" when really it is anything but deep.
>>
>>149790545
No its not because EVERY other missile ship can use the LML's and Rockets without an issue, the corax is the worst because it has a frig's PG with barely 6% more but has to fit 75% more launchers and use like 55% more fitting of its total PG to work.

Talwar? has no problems doing LML's
Condor? has no problems doing LML's
Breacher? has no problems doing LML's
Stork? has no problem running LML's
Bifrost? has no problem running LML's

this issue is exclusive to the corax

I dont play minecraft or find it interesting.
Eve just doesn't have much content to speak off. It's hundereds of systems that are all the same. PvE encounters are essentially all the same. The only varietly lies in ship hulls, which are locked behind months of wait time. And even then, PvP really doesnt have much variety and is strictly a game of who brings more people.

Free-to-play games have more content provided by the game. Eve just throws you into a sandbox and asks you to "make your own fun"(tm).
Other games just provide fun to the player.
>>
>>149790559
>you're comparing apples and oranges
eve is the only subscription game I play or have ever played, so all of my comparisons with games that I've actually tried are going to be limited in that regard.

I've never tried any other subscription games because I already know that I've tried, gotten bored with, and either not completed or stopped playing (as applicable) the following examples:
>halo 1, 2
>assassin's creed 1
>gears of war 1
>mass effect 1
>dwarf fortress
>skyrim
>scarlet blade
>left 4 dead 2
>dustforce
>tf2
>super meat boy
>ftl
>cs:go
>lol
>smite
>dreamfall
>undertale
>warframe
>war thunder
>creeper world
and I was not willing to pay for something that, based on past experience, I was not likely to enjoy or continue playing. It took me three trials to get hooked on Eve, and I kept giving it chances because it seemed like it was a unique game. Now I'm convinced of it. I won't say it's a perfect game, but I think the core concepts are good enough to offset shortcomings in, for example, variety of ratting styles enough to continue playing.

maybe you are a connoisseur of subscription based games and feel cheated by the experience eve gives you compared to the others, and if that's the case I can't justifiably comment on that.

all I know is that eve, dota, mc, and N are the only games that have consistently held my attention for months or years.
>>

>>
>>149792868
>grinding for 20 hours
I make about 500-750m an hour doing my level 5 missions in a carrier. A plex is about a billion, so thats only at most 2 hours of "grinding"

So yea, I'd say if I can just put in like 2 hours a month to play for free, its worht it

>my PLEX is free because I've spent a year of subsription SP on it
>>
>>149793012
if everyone in the game was making 500-750m per hour you'd have to do them for something like 20 hours to afford a plex
>>
>>149793507
What?

My income is based on the LP market, I somewhere between 80k and 100k LP per mission and that LP's value is based on the market. While the value of my LP is volatile it'll never decrease below 500m per hour due to LP store fees and initial buy in.

Its not my fault you're a fucking retard and can't find a content that actively pays for your account almost effortlessly. Wormholes generate similar if not MORE money. Incursions, while not producing nearly as much, are a gigantic increase in money over level 4 missions.

Level 4 nullsec missions produce even more money than incursions purely because pirate LP is worth so much. SP farming is as easy and effortless as it gets for generating SP and plex by that comparison. More effortless than Level 5 carrier missions.

You're delusional to think there isn't a plethora of activities that generate so much isk you can effectively plex your account for months with little effort on your part.
>>
>>149793012
>I make 700 mill therefor everyone should be able to make a plex's worth in an hour or two
>I am a huge fucking retard that needs to be put down because I don't understand what inflation is.
>>
>>149793792
My "20 dollar token" is reduced to about 2 hours a month

SP farmers have it super easy, they sell SP that will never lose value with how much volume is being traded every day. They literally log in, cash it in and collect money. When you get to the point where you're putting NO effort into plexing your account every month. Its pretty safe to say that its free

>>149793914
I've been making this kind of money for years, inflation has never been an issue for me.

You really think someone like me contributes significantly to inflation? More isk is traded in a single minute than I make in an hour. Inflation has never been an issue
>>
>>149793914
you are not wrong about the inflation, but for someone who seems like he wants to appear caring about all eve players, even the "minerals i mine are free" ones, you sure are good at alienating people
>>
>>149794093
this.

there are tons of opportunities for making your EVE account virtually free. Whiners seem to keep bring up this retarded non-argument that "WELL THAT PLEX CAME FROM SOMEONE SO THAT MEANS ITS NOT FREE" when in reality they ignore the fact that MY personal cost to the game is 2 hours, while not "free" in that sense, thats 20 dollars I'm not pulling out of my pocket to fund. Instead its a lowly 2 hours I can do on a weekend. By extension I'm not paying the game anything of value beyond my time if you can stratify that to begin with
>>
>>149794093
He's alienating himself if the topic is about new players or even medium - advanced. Probably some 90%+ of subs don't have a carrier and the place to do lvl 5s. That's literally the whole point of the conversation.

Most also aren't satisfied enough with their account to extract their SP. That would also be relevant to the newb discussion.

Most are just on about experiencing the game, and it turns into this basically never ending skill queue.. just for combat.
>>
>>149794053
>I've been making this kind of money for years, inflation has never been an issue for me.

because it's out of the reach of everyone you fucking retard what's so hard to understand about that. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT AT PLAY HERE?
>>
>>149794770
>because it's out of the reach of everyone you fucking retard
Level 5 missions aren't the only way of making half a bill an hour. You can easily make more in wormholes or station trading or level 4 nullsec missions. Exploration has been known to produce billions at a time.

You're somehow pretending that "well because I only know a few people that means its impossible" as if its some kind of barrier to join a wormhole corp to make tons of money
>>
>>149794963
Wormholes could require hours of scanning them down and finding anomalies. Getting lvl 4 missions requires rep grinds.
>>
>>149795113
Don't forget station trading requires a starting capital capable of generating a billion a month.
>>
>>149794963
I dare you to go make enough to plex this shitty game in those activities.

I dare you to be a new ot avergae player, and try to make your plex in a few hours that doesn't involve multiboxing or having a 100 mill + character already in corp that's settled in a level V system or C5-6 hole.

Prove me wrong. I would love it.

I just don't think you understand the concept that is at play here and why only a few of the players will ALWAYS be able to play "for free" you absolute fucking retard
>>
>>149795113
>Wormholes could require hours of scanning them down and finding anomalies. Getting lvl 4 missions requires rep grinds.
>hours of scanning
hardly, you have a C5 and you roll out every hole except your static. Theres little scanning in that regard. Then you run the cites with your capitals.

>level 4 missions require rep
hardly any especially when you get a great start out of your noob station's standings bonus you immediately start with the ability to run level 2's which easily turn into 3's

one story line mission from 3's and you're in 4's

The original critique isn't that playing the game is a grind. It's that getting to the point where playing the game has any diversity is (offline) grinding. Dude may get a shitload of ISK now, but he had to pay a lot of sub to get there, and a lot of his time trying to be interested in something that isn't inherently provisional.

I don't understand if this faggot is pretending to be retarded because he thinks that's how you troll, or if he legit is missing brain cells and doesn't understand the concept of inflation and why telling an average player that "making isk for a plex is easy enough that everyone should be able to do it" a faulty argument that misses the crux of the issue at hand.

its about efficiency, especially time vs isk vs material efficiency. You'd make more money doing something else if your industry production ratio was low.

Hey, CCP.

It isn't cool to ban players for private conversations that aren't even polarized. It's a hack thing to do, and frankly shows exactly what kind of company CCP is. You've disregarded this at this point, but you're free to stop being fucking Douche: The Company.

CCP had every a moral right to ban that fucking retard and forever sandblast his account from the face of the world. Stunt is a collossal faggot and if he fucks the rules, I don't see why ccp shouldn't do it also, in his case.

It's a figure of speech.

>>149831237
not really, its an erroneous use of speech. stunt is the only cunt that has ever been banned by CCP in that manner because stunt is a conspiring retard whose gotten in trouble in so many different ways from EULA/TOS violations, exploits, and other garabge. Its great that he got banned and stunt being allowed to come back is anything short of unheard of.

Delving into semantics? For what purpose? Go masturbate or something.
>>
>>149831846
>Delving into semantics?
its not a semantic you just labeled something that isn't plural as one, there isn't a figure of speech there

>CCP bans players for some reason
>but only one player has been banned for that reason

it should have said "CCP bans a player for a reason"
>>
>>149832074
It's a figure of speech because it's obvious how specific it is.
>>
>>149832291
No thats not what a figure of speech is, you simply misplaced something that isn't plural because its singular, theres no figurative there at all.
>>
>>149832332
Read it again and tell me it seems like that's happened multiple instances.
>>
>>149832446
>CCP just abusus mod provileges on reddit to ban subs
>subs
only one person was banned for the following link you posted therefore its erroneous to assume a plural
>>
>>149832650
You're just repeating yourself, not following what I asked.
>>
>>149832704
holy shit you're thick

You said "SUBS" only one "sub" was banned

You made it out like CCP has banned multiple people for having private conversations outside the game that would violate a TOS in the game. Which isn't true
>>
>>149832796
>anon stole something
>anon steals
It's the same thing.
>>
>>149832892
No because the "steals" isn't a noun

a "sub" is a person place or thing

by saying "subs" you make it out that there is MORE THAN ONE person place or thing

Steals is a verb, even in your sentence isn't grammatically correct because the correct one would be "anon stole" because you identify it as it already happened in your previous like "anon stole something" therefore "anon stole" not "steals"
>>
>>149833163
>No because the "steals" isn't a noun
You're making up rules.

Again, read that statement and tell me it seems like anything but a specific scene.
>>
>>149833257
>You're making up rules.
No I'm not

a plural is used when you have more than one of something. You don't use a plural when saying something like "anon steals" because your example was "stole"
>>
>>149833345
You do, and it's called figurative speech.

If I was talking about anon doing something and simultaneously calling him out on it, I could generalize what it is he was doing to make it vague.

For my trade alt I need to raise CN standings as high as possible.
Already did all career agents, circle agents, data centers, and cosmos missions.

The question is: how to progress even further?
1. blitz lvl3 distribution missions
or
2. blitz lvl3 security missions

I can complete distribution mission solo fast, but there are no systems with more than one lvl3 CN distribution agent :(
On the other hand, there are many systems with multiple lvl3 CN security agents, but my trade alt has zero combat skills, so I'll have to dualbox it with my pvp main.

Opinions ?
>>
>>149849701
why not both?
pull distribution missions with your trade character while in fleet with your main who is pulling combat missions

>>
>>149855578
Idk maybe, I know a lot of people that just think solo PvP is pointless and gay. They want to play with friends in space doing shit that's actually relevant.

EVE Online is a game that attracts people that don't want to play a game. Solo PvP is the anti-thesis of that mindset, the players that do it are literally the most "gamey" players in the game, they don't give a shit about sov, they don't give a shit about the market, they don't give a shit about anything but fidning people and blowing up ships often complaining about stuff in strictly game terms, "This ships too fast", "I can't find any fights", "That ship doesn't have good cap it sucks" or whatever. For most people there's nothing there, its like you aren't even playing the game.

Sitting in station being a CEO sending mails and updating slack all day is unironically more actual playing of EVE than any solo roamer does.

It's less boring to mine while multiboxing than with only account, right ?

How does it feel that wormhole cucks can roll their NS static and find content literally anywhere AND have a C5 static to make more money in than 99% of nullsecers?
>>
>>149859351
Much less.

Every step in mining gets magnified on a macro level. I mean emptying cans isn't that big of a deal, especially if you have miners that all have consistent cycle times. I haul ore every 6 minutes or so, which fi you take into account, warp times and waiting for the MTU to pick up cans means your hauling literally all the time.

So if you're used to normal mining, with one account, its an activity where you start your account and go afk for 10 minute or more and then come back and do stuff. Theres also a lot more setup involved before your start or stop mining.

Multibox mining is about maintaining a rhythm so you don't fall behind and still watching intel channels and local chat and stuff.

Outside of the actual mining process multiboxing is far more interesting because you actually have the resources to build stuff in quantities that aren't completely irrelevant.

No I don't have any facts to back up my opinions on other peoples opinions. I'm also not going to try and dig up random data that could support it, because that's a massive waste of time and I don't have to.

>Trying to draw people into some sort of intellectual fallacy/logic retard off over the opinion that solo PvP is gay and pointless.

Seriously, just fucking tie the noose already.
>>
>>149869229
Low is full of solo PvP because of FW.

>>149869281
There isn't a "valuable gain" in most PvP anyway, even in other games. A decent size of demographic plays WoW just for Arena PvP and BGs. It's fun because they enjoy the gameplay.

Your opinion is baseless and thus shitty.
>>
>>149869409
Solo PvPing in EVE is the WoW equivalent to ganking people by yourself while they're trying to do dailies in a contested daily zone.
>>
Protip: the majority of gamers play video games solo. They do this because waiting around for fleet pings isn't something that's always an option. It's not challenging to log on, fit up, and accept a duel on the undock.. or even just jump 8 systems over, past Tama, and poke at people gate camping. There's a whole meta around kiting as many ships as possible, taking out as many ships as possible before losing your Deimos or whatever.

That post literally says arena PvP and BGs. Jesus Christ.
>>
>>149869651
>That post literally says arena PvP and BGs. Jesus Christ.

Its not like arenas or like BG's though.

Arenas are coordinated groups fighting eachother on even ground.

Battlegrounds is relatively large scale PvP where you complete objectives and kill retards while abusing the fact that you can hide in a group and people are retarded. That or you queue with a group and pubstomp retards.

Solo PvP is roaming around and the only other people you're going to be fighting are
>other people doing the same thing, often this involves baiting eachother until both parties think they can win and one of them is wrong, most often it ends in blueballing.
>People not fit for PvP getting wrecked

I'm pretty sure the only reason people solo PvP is so that they can pretend they're elite at the game when they specialize in doing something that doesn't fucking matter at all to anyone else in the game. No one fucking cares about your solo kills that you got.
>>
>>149870073
>he can't 1v15
>>
>>149870073
M8, you'd probably say that nothing matters at all to anyone else in the game. Nothing in EVE is relevant to anything else. If you imagine solo PvP to be any less viable an activity than running fucking PvE, you might seem autistic for the remainder of this conversation.
>>
>>149870249
I never said it wasn't viable.

The statement was before
>if solo pvp were more accessible you'd probably see a lot more of it. problem is, 3% of those 3% aren't blobbers, ready to drop a cyno in on you, otherwise ganged up, and/or pirate frigs with afk links in system

I was saying that I disagree and I don't think people don't solo PvP "because its inaccessible" or any sort of player skill requirements. I was saying that EVE isn't marketed towards attracting the audience that are "solo PvPers".

Like, I can't think of a single trailer where they've even mentioned solo PvP.
>PI got its own trailer
>Mining was in a trailer
>exploration was in a trailer
>Lorefags got their own trailer

The only thing I can think of is the very beginning of the "Butterfly Effect" trailer.

You can do whatever the fuck you want in EVE, and every person is going to have something they think is a shit activity. People hate trading, they hate mining, they hate solo PvP, they hate Wormholes, They hate Highsec, lowsec, and nullsec, they hate exploration, incursions, missions, ratting, ERP, RP, faction warfare, whatever. But EVE is about finding your own place within the game.

When people hear about EVE they don't hear about solo PvP so the people whose place that would be, aren't attracted to EVE.

I am going to make an unfounded assumption that the same audience that WOULD be drawn in by solo PvP would be turned off by the fact that people use links, that SP exists and their going to be "behind", that people can jump in whenever they want and ruin the 1v1, and that even fights pretty much don't exist.
>>
>>149870848
All gamers are solo gamers. It's the inherent quality of having a single dude behind a single ship on a single PC. If they figure they can get some action inbetween fleets, they probably will.

Also, the metrics posted by CCP stating how few players join corps proves you wrong. That they quit because EVE has shitty game design is another topic.
>>

By that account, solo PvPers are a huge majority, because EVE retention is awful.

Make Lowsec great again. Increase incentives to go there over highsec. Maybe remove cynos in low.

Something like SCs Arena Commander for quick, arranged, "fair" and casual PvP.

Not a valid point. Every other MMO is exactly the same as a game that's already popular (not to mention a game that's becoming popular by being what the first game was originally).

EVE isn't.

>>149883328
Not evidenced. Everything they talk about and update about the NPE has to do with SP. It's imaginable both how awful it is subbing to a "sandbox MMO" with so much gating, and also how magnificent it would be without that.

if CCP santioned this kind of behaviour (waahhh carebabby) that wouldn't happen. Normally other games do that. Normally in real life it's like that.

But EVE is space nig0gerland because it's so ebin that way :D so always expect a fight, even in highsec

What? Thats not the point at all

it doesn't matter if CCP sanctions behavior or not, avoiding spies is equivalent to avoiding loss. Since API's don't tell the whole story and clean alts are easy to build and make you simply NEVER trust ANYONE with moving your shit or lighting you a cyno

Not that guy but I've had similar experiences when trying to get friends to play Dwarf Fortress. A lot of players don't feel like dumping the time required to learn the game, and they don't understand that making mistakes and learning from them is part of it. They'd rather sit in a garrison in WoW all day.
>>
>>149883285
my line of logic, and the reason why I brought the event example, is that eve players would do anything to spite other people, that they are comparable to melanin enriched gentlemen from first world utopias like Chicago or Philly.

They'd break in a house to steal a napkin. They cannot do in real life, but they can do it in the space sandbox.
I'm saying that is one big appeal of EVE, prepetrated by CCP.

4 guns at 1870PG per with AWU5 is 7480/11000. You only have 3520 to use for everything else including props, cap booster, and any other PG intensive modules like a neut.

Hell, I barely even see Napocs. Only the speedyboy mach fleet.

Make battleships great again (nerf jump fatigue, make world small for non-caps again :(

forgot to mention, you can make as many accounts as you want though and get as many referrals as you want. You might even be able to get a referral on that same email though i wouldn't hold my breath
you can certainly get a referral to a different email, make the account, and change the email to whatever one you want afterwards

>>149891813
You're fucking retarded, the fitting is so bad that my 2 heavy neuts because there isn't enough PG.

I get 7 highs, 4 guns and 3 utility, one belongs to the cloak, 2 to neuts and 4 to guns. Problem is you can't fit guns and you're forced to either have an empty highslot or put something useless in there like a drone link augmentor

It doens't have the PG for guns, it performs better with a full rack of neuts/nos

those a-types and imperial navy plates give it the tank it needs,

the scrams and webs have far more range and shit and the shadow serpentis mwd has better fitting, cap use and cap penalty.

All these faction mods also heat better especially the scrams and webs and neuts.

>>149893767
yea the a-type adaptive plates drop from 3/10's in highsec so they're super abundant.

more tank
>SS MWD
better fitting, better cap penalty, higher speed, less cap use

>RFTP
its not even that expensive.
>>
yes you posted that before. but the amount more x these things give you is basically nothing. and holy shit you don't even have a cap booster, what are you doing? on a neutraliser fit at that, kys
>>
>>149893787
>being cheap with a blops fitting
you're not supposed to be dying too often
dont be cheap you scrub
>>
>>149894046
>you is basically nothing.
the difference between the T2 plates and the Imperial Navy 1600mm plates is about 10k tank, thats pretty worth it for just 37m a piece.

The SS MWD is only 50m for that bonus. 10% cap penalty, 15% less capacitor usage and 10% more speed over the compact MWD. Oh yea, same signature penalty of the quad LIF restrained too.
>>
so your only reason is 'le no poors xd' meme. you'll be dying every day in your no cap no dps neutraliser fit btw
>>
it's not 10% more speed dumbass it's like 0.5%
>>
>>149894287
>your only reason is no poors

I just listed tons of reasons for using the SS MWD over a regular MWD and the added tank of the IN 1600's is worth it too. These modules aren't expensive and I could blow a lot more money for tons more shit like deadspace neuts, deadspace MWD that has no cap penalty, A-type adaptive nano membranes that cost 900m a piece and so on
>>
no you didn't list reasons, you posted the stats of the modules. everyone already knows the stats of the modules. the resist modules and tackle modules are ok, but everything else is trash
>>
then post your epic sin with guns fit :^)
>>
>>149894619
>no you didn't list reasons, you posted the stats of the modules
and those stats are the reason I bought them you stupid fuck
>>
you're literally defending a fit with 6 neutralisers, a jump drive and no cap booster fyi, don't meme at me

oh but it has reduced cap penalty and cap usage on its mwd I'm sure it'll work out
>>
>>149894792
>no cap booster
it doesn't need it, its meant for fleet blops. I land and alpha the target's capacitor away for like 1-2 cycles, shut it off, MJD away and cloak, let the cap recharge then blops out.

So you shifted the goalposts from fitting guns, to my faction mods were useless and now its "well you have no cap booster"
>>
alpha the target's capacitor away

man that sounds effective against people who don't fit cap boosters

no, I shifted the goalposts to answering your question of why your fit is shit - your dps is shit, you have no cap and it's overpriced
>>
>>149895042

I think when I dunk on ratters and shitters, they probably don't use cap boosters to rat.

none of these are issues

610dps is a lot for a blops, I don't need to sacrifice my tank, utility or neuts for an extra 290dps from garbage electron blasters that aren't going to hit anyway because the range is shit.

2.2b isn't even expensive for a blops, heres an expensive blops pic related

>cap
not an issue, the target dies in less than 30 seconds, I last over 1:30 with everything running which I won't be running everything anyway so its fucking dead, MJD, cloak, jump home

you have no neuting power, you can only neut for 2 cycles. also you need to cloak afk for 20 minutes to get jump cap after a 'fight'

actually I can neut with the heavies for up to 5

even then I can just swap the fit and add a cap booster if I really wanted to anyway. None of these blops engagements last more than a minute so I'm fine in every regard.

now you're grasping at straws because you have nothing to go on while screaming "stop shifting the goalposts" when all you're doing is posting gun botes that don't have nearly the utility as the sin
