>>152488645
Theres non-retards that will push for multiple differing viewpoints on what the game should try and achieve, People that highly value PvP in EVE that aren't dumb would actively provide input that would make the sandbox far shittier.

Balancing is the most important thing for PvP, high skill cap is also important, many options is important but less important than the other two. A person pushing for PvP could reasonably argue that having to buy ships and ammo and modules just gets in the way of people PvPing. But that would also severely fuck up everything that EVE was created to be.

I'd rather have a team of developers headed by an idealistic director that makes everything in the game towards a centralized vision while completely disregarding profits and player input.

>>152489224
>A person pushing for PvP could reasonably argue that having to buy ships and ammo and modules just gets in the way of people PvPing.
No they wouldn't thats a mechanic of the game which few other MMO's have

If you die in PVP in other MMO's theres no loss, you just spawn in the last place you died, you still have your shit and gear and theres no loss.

But injectors was the final swing of the axe

From the other thread:

"You can increase your wealth by a statistical 2.09% an hour by flipping PLEX from buy orders in a citadel to Jita.

Minimum limit 10b, upper efficient investment limit per hour, 63bil.

63b * 2.09% per hour is +20.9% per 10 hours, or 76b, or 13bil per 10 hours of consistent, bot-level flipping.

To compare the profitability of that, the second most profitable item (per hour) is currently Logic Circuit, with a statistical hourly flipping profit of 79mil and an upper limit of investment of 734mil. The following 10 items ranked in profitability can be flipped for a total of 380mil per hour with a required 13.5bil in reserve to do so, or a 2.8% ROI per hour (3.8b per 10).

The top 10 items change hourly and profitability fluctuates in the ranges of 200mil to 500mil, with capital required ranging from as low as 2b to 20b. The PLEX fluctuates from high profitability to high unprofitability (spread too tight to pass Jita taxes), which forces the spread to expand by either increasing top sell prices in a bull trend, or decreasing top buy offers in a bear trend. The trend usually follow the model for a week, which is a good mid-term investment if you manage to identify the trend.

This has been your daily spreadsheet statistics autism."

I don't care how many people you could get to play EVE if you changed a bunch of stuff. The only thing I care about is whether EVE remains EVE. Dwarf Fortress would get way more people to play it if it had a modern UI and graphics. But I'd rather have toady just do whatever toady wants to do and make the game a better game. Making the game more accessible has absolutely nothing to do with the game being good.

Popularity is often associated with game quality. You can't just ignore that trend to make a no-argument about "muh accessibility". No SP has no effect on veterans except more content. There's no argument against this, because more options/efficiency is more interest is more content.

Not to mention there are objective measurements of what makes a game great based on what's motivating. In the design of whether or not a mechanic is likely to cause a player to come back, SP is very low on that.

>>152496532

Yeah, the more popular a game is the worse it is because its catering to as many preferences as possible. It basically has to empirically be shit in order to be popular. Just like pretty much everything else.

Problem is that I don't really know what I want to focus on in the long run.
I like building and crafting stuff, while making money on the side but what's the fun in that if you cannot use it?

Also, why are some of the ship designs in this game so damn retarded?

Have you done the career agent missions? They give you a quick look at what some of your options in eve are. Building stuff is a perfectly viable way to make money but it requires skills and blueprints that you won't have for a while. Maybe doing that on the side can be part of your long term plan. What other kinds of things do you like to do in other games?

>>152502285
the 'space trucking' in freelancer doesn't really go anywhere. you'll spend 90% of the time doing combat stuff, and you can't go anywhere because the plot doesn't let you, and you could just go into a nebula and pick up some shit from a wreck and make mad dosh instead of hauling stuff for hours. the hauling and trading seems like an afterthought much like everything else that isn't just playing through the story missions

Building comfy bases and then take over anything around it. But mostly building bases. But I guess that won't work here.
Aside from that I guess would be combat related.

>EVE is all about figuring out your source of income

no, eve is about doing whatever you feel like

>>152502514
Nothing in the game makes as much as PLEXing, and nothing comes close until millions of SP, potentially not even until capitals unless botting the market (which is against TOS).

What you do with the cash is entirely what the game is about. PvE isn't interesting content. There was just a huge shitposting line about a combat pilot not being a combat pilot if it isn't actively PvPing.

>>152502774
The problem is, once you have a lot of isk you start realizing that the wallet figure going up is pointless. Wealth is pointless if you're (most likely) not having any fun.

>>152502696
>Building comfy bases and then take over anything around it. But mostly building bases. But I guess that won't work here.

Sounds like you might enjoy living in a wormhole or in sov null. Some of the relevant corps will have requirements but a lot of them will be pretty welcoming to new players. You may benefit from spending some time in eve university just to learn the basics though, they can offer you experience with living in wormholes or null sec. Their null sec campus has been pretty dead recently though.

For some people pve is interesting and is their source of income if you know wtf are you doing or you enjoy the nomadic aspect of flying all er the map looking for stuff. You are also providing for the economy both in your lossess and gains

Even if you main focus is pvp than no matter if you died or kill the sauce that makes your gameplay so tasty is n the end only the grease for the economic clockwork.

Literally no matter what you enjoy in EVE it all serves the ISK.

I'm just making an observation. It's hardly surprising that new players are moving out of the nsc when there are carriers camping their undock. That was a couple of weeks ago though, I haven't been following the situation too closely.

>>152503886
Instead of having static connections to other systems through gates, wormhole systems are only connected to each other through randomly spawning wormholes. They also do not have npc stations, so you need to build the infrastructure you want to use, and either import ships and fittings or produce them locally. It's pretty common for players or corps to set up camp in a wormhole system and use the randomly spawned connections to find content. This will require some scanning skills, they don't need to be good though. You might just run some combat sites on your own, you might do it with your corp mates, or you might run into another corp doing the same and fight them.

Sov null refers to the areas of null sec space where players can claim sovereignty. Again there are no npc stations, so everything you have to work with will be something you or your corp has built out there.

>>152504224
You're requesting proof for something I apparently haven't claimed. We're talking about motivation and fun. "Prove subs". Fuck off? You seem like you could use less cheeky in your life.

Only the participants in faction warfare should be allowed to manufacture, purchase, and fit offensive modules.

no, only the participants of nullsec and wormhole space should be allowed to do that.

They (empire space) probably already do this. It's simply different being a capsular. Considering you are functionally immortal with infinite clones. Declaring anti offensive weapon jurisdiction upon capsulars would be an unpopular move since they live by their own rules.

Also imagine an empire declaring war against any and all capsules and criminalising anyone known to be associated with capsule use. Most fleets and FCs would wreck an entire empire's shit for removing one of 4 of the FC's only way to recruit.

Just unlocked level 3 security missions for Caldari Navy. What BC would you guys recommend for quickly running them to boost my standings? I'm currently trained up to Cruiser 1/2 in all 4 races so I'm open to anything.

>>152528001
If you want a battlecruiser, go for a drake

>>152528001
A cruiser can do Level 3's although a BC does them even faster.

>all races
well a Ferox is good because of the optimal range bonus
A myrm is good because it gets a good rep/tank bonus
a drake is good because it has good tank and super long range missiles.
prophecy is like a myrm but it gets less drones and not very good rep strength like the myrm. It bolsters extremely high resists which helps survivability.
The hurricane, harbi, brutix and other BC's don't work well due to their role, bonuses and how they perform. None of them are long range which is optimal for hitting targets that are all over the place and they don't really tank very well like the others do.

>>152529093
>>152529413
I've been using a Caracal for most of my level 2 missions so I was thinking of the Drake already but a lot of stuff I've read made them seem not so great. Apparently they were really good back in 2012 or so but got nerfed? Is that no longer the case?

>>152530604

>For level 3s what sort of enemies will I be looking at,
They tend to be mostly cruisers, destroyers and frigs but mostly cruisers iirc. There might be a few battleships but they aren't difficult

>>152530992
The second part might be up to you. Heavy missiles have a lot of range and a lot of alpha which will help hit cruisers better because of their size. They don't suffer from long reloads and have a lot more ammo in them. However they apply like shit to destroyer and frig sized enemies. Try it out and see what ones are best for you

I'm a 45 year old male, and I play Eve. Well, not completely just Eve, I have a WoW friend named Binkers. I was sitting on my couch rplaying WoW, drinking my favorite scotch Laphroaig, and Binkers cam up next to me and convoed me. I was crushed because the day before was Binkers' birthday and I had forgotten to play WoW with him. With age, comes mental fog I suppose. I was at work late so I didn't have time to play, so today I had decided to make him something special. He was online, so still sitting on the pc I leaned and pulled my special out of the desktop folder to return to my seat and present what was leaned over and grabbed from my out of the desktop folder to present. Binkers look at me and smiled a smile that encouraged enough space to accept my out of the desktop folder special from my seat leaned from the desktop folder. Binkers was now smiling. "My leaned desktop folder special gift from a couch leaned out of the desktop folder," Binkers knew all along.
