>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 all the Career Agent 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.

yes m8, it was posted here back in 2013 and 2014, the memes are back
So reposting since no one managed to give me constructive advice.
I used to play daily for 7 years. Now I barely log in and if I do I log out in 5 mins. Used to pvp daily, haven't touched a pvp ship in 3 months. The pve has no allure,m the scope network stuff is crap imho.

Wrong
The entire EVE backed up by a RMT-er took the North.
There was no win, because goons didn't fight :^)
>>152701752
>1 RMT entity was changed for another one
literally no difference
>>152701752
rest_of_eve.exe had us outnumbered near on 2:1, with overwhelming supercapital superiority. There was no way to fight that, especially once co2 flipped sides and took a good chunk of our useful subcap numbers with them.
Does show that even under fozziesov, the biggest supercap fleet and the biggest coalition still always win.

how has the black hand not caught you and doxxed you yet
>>152718645
Because I am using the only method that is 100% black hand-proof a.k.a. physical separation.
They can play with my API, comms, IP, links with hidden extensions, etc. as much as they want.
I contact my handler once a month when I travel to another city to visit my parents :^). I use my old laptop that is in their house, it is used for nothing else. I NEVER contact PL from my regular rig/phone/tablet and I never use my old laptop for EVE business, especially not goon related, no forums, comms, mail, nothing.
Literally cannot be caught.
>mfw I am a trusted person
>>152719235
so what kind of info do you get
>>152719671
It's not about info, my job is to wait for a grand opportunity. I have been waiting for years. Like catching the goon supercap fleet, etc.
I used to give bits of info years before, but as I rose through the ranks that entailed too much risk for no real gain. The spais that give regular info are easily caught through traps and shit.
>>152719876
>mfw it never happens
>>152719982
I know right? The weird part is I have been a goon in everything I do for years, no contact with PL expect the monthly or bi-monthly checks.
Shit is really fucking weird sometimes.

i reckon $100 for a 25cm version of this on a stand would be fine.
>>152728736
A decently leveled FW faction can make 50-150m/hr doing complexes or missions.
There's a starter fit in the pastebin.
hello, guy who is programming the "simulation" of sleeper sleeper sites here again
today I implemented the following:
-Simplified sleeper movement incorporated -- no accelleration accounted for (still need to find accurate data for spawn distances from the player's location though)
-Created 2-D plot of these locations
-Sentry drone damage
-Missile Damage
-Fixed some bugs
-Still to do:
-Add ability to swap drones when against frigates or something like that
-Add light/med/heavy drone damage and drone movement associated with that
-Add 'imperfections' associated with starting to shoot new target/targeting first ship of a wave
-Maybe add missile flight time? This doesn't really make a huge difference with how things are calculated though.
-Probably other stuff I am forgetting

To be fair, some of the most fun I've had with the game is training drone skills for my Velator, ratting highsec belts for that sweet dessie upgrade.
The fun stopped after about Drones II for the training queue.
Do you guys ever feel like Phoebe, Aegis, and Citadels are enjoyable but a massive step back in terms of gameplay?
Gameplay might be the wrong word to use but I miss certain aspects of each of them and I'm worried for the eventual removal of starbases since the stront timer system will be going with it. They feel very cheap, or half-baked, maybe?

IDK, how's it affecting economy play?
>>152740510
Im only salty about dread changes but im fine with everything else
Can someone explain how exactly does the reactive hardener work? I know it shifts the resists depending on what is shooting you but what if the rats have more damage types? Or angel with their explo+bit of everything else.

>>152741389
It shifts until it corresponds with incoming damage ratio, like if the whole fleet of rats hit you 23% emp 34% kin 11% exp 32% therm your module will try to get these resists, in fact due to non-simultaneous nature of incoming damage it will fluctuate around those numbers

uwot?
>>152758162
Well what i mean is why would i use something more than t2+maybe one-two ded modules? I'll just die undocking from jita (exaggerating ofc but you get the idea).
I thought you only use full-faction on something like motherships and other big ships for wars.
>>152758485
The fit I use for incursions costs around 4 billion and that isn't even above average.
>>152758661
>The fit I use for incursions costs around 4 billion and that isn't even above average.
I don't think you understand how we play the game around here.
>>152758661
Well, incursions just a fit-dick measurement so it checks out.
>>152758661
4 billion is far above average for most incursion groups
C-type tank, faction damage mods and maybe a blinged mwd will easily do and that's not even 2b.
>>152759032
I have to pay for my pvp losses somehow.
>she loses in pvp
>>152758485
I usually fit bling on ships that have bonuses to it. DED shields or armor reps on vaga/hrcate. Faction points on lach/mordus, faction webs on huginn.
You guys ready?
YOU CAN'T KILL IT
wait so what happened with the keepstar
did the exploiters win like always?
>>152758661
That is way above average
>>152755004
It doesnt measure amount of damage or proportion. It shifts based on incoming damage and not the amount
This why it's so easy to fuck up the resist profile by using off damage drones
>>152740510
I agree. Phoebe came out 2 years ago but the game has changed so much I wish ccp would go back to look at capital jump ranges like they said they would. Moving a capital is more of a pain in the ass than ever

What is balance? I'm sure they could figure it out, it being a video game, obviously.

Oh, right, their balance team is non-existent.

>>152764303
I use a Thanny for level 5s and then an Archon for alliance stuff.
Suggestion: The current 'Expanded Probe Launcher II' requires "Astrometics L5'. How about adding an "Astrometic Specialization" where at L1 or L3 there are launchers which can probe cloaked Sub-Capital ships (the Supers/Titans/etc are hard enough to move as it is). The "Cloaky Probe Launcher" will be a lot slower. A scan might by default take for example 2 minutes to perform, so the 'Astrometric Acquisition ' skill would actually help and make a difference (L5 = 50% shorter scan time). And with maxed support scanning skills, you could probe a cloaked AFK ship.
Bonus idea: Even add a +some_stats to the Cyno Modules so if a Cyno is fitted and you are cloaked, it's easier to be probed with the above mentioned launcher. And while at it add a rig that makes you totally unprobable even when you are cloaked, but it's then impossible to fit a Cyno with the rig.
Result: Someone who's active and Covops Cloaked can warp around and it won't be possible to scan down that ship (long scan time etc). But someone who's AFK cloaking will be possible to be probed . And a ship without a cyno will also be quite hard (or impossible?) to scan down. I could actually think that it would be good if it was possible to scan a cloaked raptor who's scouting your staging system all day long and be able to get rid of it but it's a fine balance to make it possible to evade some hunters by cloaking up when traveling in hostile space.
This would require active game play by the Cloaker, and it would require active game play by the locals, rather than as it's been suggested before, an iHub Ping that decloaks everyone every X minutes.
>>152768814
>>152768814
Aside from the fact that I don't give a shit about nullbears and the cloaky-afk boogeymen, this idea is fucking dumb as shit.
In the time you will have probed down and warped to this ship, he will have moved more than 2km away so you still can't catch him.
You can catch some stationary retards I suppose.
>>152768814
>mad bears
>>152763451
Not according to ccp who will hopefully come back to look at it again
>>152761616
So w8 you mean that if something hits me for like 1k dps thermal and there is one scout drone that puts out about 20 dps kin membrane will shift to 50% thermal 50% kinetic? Thats dumb, can you source a proof for your theory?
>>152771269
Yes that is how it works. Source: people have tested it, fucking google it.
It's a pretty shit module. Its only saving grace is that it doesn't suffer stacking penalties with other armor resistance modules (except the DC2)
Fuck the vengeance, goddamn OP motherfucking bullshit AF needs a nerf immediately, I mean goddamn it had more ehp than as fucking Mac tank Brutix Navy Issue what were fucking CCP thinking?
AND THEN they give it a MWD bonus what the fuck?
Let's also not forget about the goddamn capacitor bonus, making it literal super carrier levels of impossible to neut.
I swear to god I'd rather have everyone flying linked high snakes Garmurs than the odd pilot flying the Vengeance.
If you fly the vengeance you are cancer and you should consider suicide.
Fuck you.

CONCORD should be an optional feature that costs ISK based on your hull cost and the sec status of the system, and only respond when called in.

Fielding an Etana, Moracha or Fiend gives you a massive advantage. Even having such ships does you a favor because these ships can bait bans.
>>152854702
Oh they didn't ban or restrict AT ships for another year? Well yeah, easy PL victory then.
>>152854702
Call me crazy but I think PL has created some new alliances with the express purpose of participating in the AT and rigging the whole thing.
>>152855328
You can only field one AT ship per match I believe.

>>152855328
They introduced a limit of one unique ship per team per match. It made unique frigates like cambions less usable, but that's about it.
>>152855521
Have you even looked at some of them?
They are literally straight up better in every single way, even the frigates.
>the only AT ships are the meme cov ops ones

he's also conveniently ignoring the fact that he's retarded and wrong about dramiels and cynabals, and the dramiel/cynabal at ships
these ships didn't come with covops cloaks to compensate for being shitty at combat, they got them extra to convince risk averse faggots to fly them
>>152851457
To risky, this dies to every destroyer, AF and half the navy frigs.
I'd use the lml versions and kite away with a web or full brick
But you can still improve that fit.
Meta 4 or faction the extender and use the cheap mwd and you can drop the pg rig for extender rig.
Also your losing so much by not using rockets II.

what does someone rating your ships incorrectly have to do with anything
>>152886841
with but feeling*
But to be fair, a lot of ships are underperforming in contrast with .. like T3Ds and Caracals.
>>152886921
IDK, m8, I figured the Stabber was decent, but that cap.
>he needs approval of some shitters to fly a ship
>>152886974

the cap is fine. the problem is the damage and falloff bonus
>>152887179
M8, it gets like 2 minutes with a MWD and point.

>you will never work for ccp and slowly influence the devs to nerf the vengeance and buff T3Ds
>>152887093

What's easier to say?
>>152887336
Other cruisers can fit a cap booster or just fit drones.
>>152887419
so can the stabber. and what do drones have to do with cap? stabber has drones btw
>>152887492
>stabber has drones btw
Way to make your post of very little value. It doesn't get a drone bonus, and it wouldn't be a fine idea flying just drones.
The stabber has to fit a tank in its mids.
>>152887654
why do you want a drone bonus
and you could armour tank it
or you could just get good at cap management and learn to turn your mwd off
>>152887865
M8, can you into discussion? Nobody's asking for cruisers to all get drone bonuses so that they can have a capacitor. The stabber wouldn't even improve cap use because projectiles don't use cap.
I checked, and it's 1m37 with a point and a mwd on. With Vs. That's inexcusable.
maybe you should just fly a arty vagabond instead
>>152888008
it's really not inexcusable, you're just inexcusably bad and used to flying faggot shit
>>152887276
Same with the Cynabal. It's fine unless you can't manage your cap.
>>152888642
>>152888654
Except it's going to get tackled by a frigate or two.
>>152886974
It's would be so easy too.
Add a new variable "Fuel Partition Reserve" or some shit: missiles lose accuracy the further they travel.
Decreasing their explosion velocity by 0.5â„… per km traveled, starting on the 10th km (to not hurt rockets)
Buff projectile falloff formula to stop decreasing damage only after 1/3 past the initial falloff
Switch the remaining optimal bonuses in minmatar ships to falloff.
Buff falloff bonuses to 15â„… across the board
Nerf drone tracking by 15â„… across the board.

It should be piloting skill, not SP or shitty ship limitations. If frigates are going to catch basically the only fast cruiser, it should have to actually try for it.
>it should be piloting skill
>mfw that line is always coming from someone without skills
>>152889553
they do have to actually try, because they are subjected to autocannon fire on the way in, drones the whole time, and neuts/rlmls/whatever is in the 2 utilities
it sounds like you think having a cruiser be faster than frigates should be a possibility

>>152892457
I am down to a main and an alt, can't really justify paying for those two accounts anymore, desu. Not sure what to do. Dropping them just like that after spending years and thousands of real life isk on them is counter productive imo.
Want to be a rocket man in space capitalist ships and also have wealth to PvP in frigs-BCs for months without having to grind.
Should I liquidate the brain of my 19m SP character and start off anew specialised? He's a pretty shit main anyway

>>152892879
>>152893346
I feel you niggas, the game seems simply dull.
DULL
the excitement is gone form the game itself, dunno what the reason is
You guys sound like you all need a 6 month break from the game.
Also, from my newbie perspective, maybe you're rich as hell at this point and the thrill of potential loss is completely negated.
Try doing PvP in a ship that's worth 30% of what you have total
>>152893939
they've ruined the game for themselves by farming too much, and they don't even see it
>>152893640
>>152893752
I think CCP Wanttobeaman took too long with her supposed changes. We were promised player built gates and shit years ago.
We are shown the same graph with upcoming features during every Fanfest and the damn progress is illusory, a slightly shifting line and empty promises with deadlines that are actually further away rather than closer.
>>152893939
Desu I lost the fear of ship loss during my second week in EVE, 7 years ago. It ain't it.
Taking a break means leaving everything and everyone behind :(
>>152894169
how many accts do you have nigger
>>152893939
I've taken a break for 6 months and I still feel the same
It's not even about the isk anymore, I could go out in a 10b fitted ship but I know it'd just be unfulfilling.
>>152894383
Used to have 6, down to 2 now, have absolutely no reason for more.
Only 1 alt is essential for self-sufficiency with a jump freighter and a carrier, etc.
you just fucked it up by grinding too much, now everything seems pointless
>>152893939
I'm getting combat shakes every time when soloing; even when I'm flying cheap stuff. But that's exactly what makes EVE pvp awesome and unique.
>>152894568
Explain. So if I bought shit with all my isk or gave it to a friend/the corp I would feel like before? I doubt that.
>>152894665
you still probably have access to broken amounts of isk per hour
ccp listening to their customer base was a mistake.
>>152895159
Hi Gevlon.
>>152895159
Not focusing on Walking in Stations was a mistake.
CC[ listening to the small, but vocal minority anti-WIS autists was a mistake.
Not turning EVE into a science fiction universe simulator (WiS, DUST, total integration, etc.) instead of spaceship autism was a mistake.
>>152895159
>CCP listening to a vocal minority that only wants more power for their specific way of playing the game was a mistake
>>152895416
>Not focusing on Walking in Stations was a mistake.
This. I got into EVE during the expansion that introduced the Captain's Quarters, because of muuh Mass Effeect hype. I expected fucking stores and bars in stations asap. I expected DUST becoming part of EVE.
inb4 Star Citizen comes out and everyone migrates, because it has all of the above shit into one and inb4 Elite introduces avatars as well to steal some more users.
In eons to come the refusal to work on WiS will be talked about as the start of EVE's death.
>>152895416
Why did they never release WiS?
With the cabin functionality complete, don't they literally just need to build the interior levels + player sync and add it on?
>>152895732
Even fucking Earth and Beyond from like 2001 allowed you to walk in stations and interact with NPCs/players there.
CCP has had over a fucking decade to implement it but they wasted all their dev time on shit that never panned out like dust and the WoD mmo.
>>152895769
They think it "won't add anything to the game" I believe is their official explanation
>>152895769
>Why did they never release WiS?
Because autists made noise against it. Fucking idiots. CCP got scared they would subcribers if they continued with WiS (irony lel)...despite having an almost finished project, you can youtube the demo of the station interiors, it was almost ready.

I'll start off by saying we are indeed balancing the svipul, and a host of other ships. As most of you know as well, CCP has been working on player built jump gates for a long time, that's why we feel they're in a good state to release 6 months from now. For the forseeable future, player built gates will take over the functionality the jump bridge module on starbases provided, finally bringing citadels up to feature parity. enjoy :)"

>>152898665
Why don't they put some actual fucking objectives in this game so I can play it and have fun instead of sitting and station and waiting for two FCs to arrange a fight? Imagine fighting over something and having it actually matter for once.
>>152899851
Like what?
>>152899851
>>152899851
In a sandbox you make your own objectives you fucknugget.
That's why this game has lasted over a decade.
>>152899851
>>152899964fozziesov nodes, don't you like that shit senpai?
>>152899851
You know they used to do events and shit right?
Too bad they stopped because they don't have the staff. CCP is dying.
>>152899964
I don't know, I'm not a game designer. People get paid the big bucks to figure shit like this out. But something along the lines of:
You join a side in faction warfare.
Periodically distress signals will pop up on the map for all to see (like the cyno map).
Let's say you are in Amarr fw.
You go to the beacon and there's an Amarr battleship there. You defend it from minmatar fw guys for X amount of time and get a big LP bonus.
Just some sort of system where there's an objective visible to anyone who's looking for a fight, that also has some a significant payoff. Something that is "farmable" in an active way instead of waiting for market orders or orbiting an MTU.
>>152900980
Sounds boring desu, same grindfest, different face
(fuck you spellcheck, grindfest is a word)
>>152900980
You are literally describing how faction warfare already works, if you change the word battleship to the word node.
>>152901125
At least it would be an obvious point of interest that would draw people in. Better than gating through 50 nullsec systems just to run into an instalocking svipul camp yet again. Solo PvP is extremely unsatisfying. There is literally nothing to do in this game on an individual level, except for the worst PvE in the history of video games.
>>152901353
The difference is, in current FW you have 100 systems that all have 0-5 plexes. The optimal way to farm them is in an unfit frigate... Even if the other faction has 5 fleets out looking for fights they aren't likely to catch you because there's just too much space for the amount of players EvE has.
>>152901858
FW needs a few fixes, namely having plex timers tick down rapidly if you leave the cap zone or cloak or whatever. currently there's no time-efficient way to fuck with cowardly stabbed/unfitted faggots
>>152902184
yeah. Remove defensive plexing and just have the node go the other way if you're out of the circle, it's not hard.
>gross weebs talking about pedo shit in local
>mfw they're blue
>>152902184
In any case, we could play armchair game designers all day. The point is it's so sad that the predominant opinion about eve is that it's "that game that's more fun to read about than play", and nothing has been done about it for over a decade as >>152900356 said. It's true too, I've told my friends lots of stories about how I got my carrier into a cap brawl and how my adrenaline was rushing through me, but it doesn't include the dozens of hours of circling an MTU while shitposting it took for me to get that carrier, or the fact that the fight was literally over nothing.
I guess I've just become a bit disillusioned.

So how profitable is gas mining compared to ore/ice?
>>152917339
You mean Home at Last
You mean surplus of rare artifacts
>>152918294
depends on the gas
cytocerosin is extremely valuable, mykocerocin not so much
anyone else gonna miss starbases?
>>152918294
I don't know about ore or ice, but with 1 prospect and t2 harvesters, it takes almost exactly 1 hour to fill your hold, which is 1000 units of cytoserocin. eve-central tells me a high tier one like viridian is 90k per unit, so 90 mil per hour per prospect, but you don't have an infinite supply.
I don't know all the gas sites, and I've not seen an up to date list, just fuzzwork. I was doing some gas in cloud ring, which is viridian cyto. the sites I remember were frosty nebula, which was just 1000 units, and an easily tankable rat spawn, polar bear nebula, which I don't know how much gas it had, because it seemed to have as many rats as a L4 mission, so you'd need to clear it first, and the best one was a pale nebula, which had either 3000 or 4000 units I can't remember, and no rats, but an easily passive tanked smartbomb thing
I don't know if it's the same in other regions or what. I once did a golden cyto site in lonetrek which had no rats or damage or anything
continuing >>152922250
so I guess if you live near a place with really good cyto, it might be worth doing with a few accounts. the area I was talking about is where tishu lives, I don't think they do it at all
I just get the impression that basically nobody in the game harvests this stuff, maybe the price would collapse if you started bringing in vast amounts of it. pretty sure malachite cyto was 10k only a few weeks ago, now it's way less
>tfw kspace fags assuming anyone ever means kspace gas

>>152921584
I shot an ihub, and it wasn't great.
>>152922250

I was actually in that area earlier to day and did 3 sites. I didn't get any rat spawns at all and the smartbomb effect is easily tanked even in a venture.
>>152926646

>>152940268
yeah but one is passive
>>152940268
a while ago i counted out the time i was taking maintaining my pi setup and was making about 250m/h of effort. that's almost completely reliable money, barring market crashes or getting my hauler ganked, which is more than i'd make in incursions even ignoring time spent on waitlist. it's hard to compare to exploration money given scanning time, which i've never really recorded over an extended period. it's also more than i make running c3 sites with a solo rattle, though it is less than you can make in c5 sites with multiple rattles.
also i'm not doing a super tricky setup - it's pretty braindead - and i do it slowly. it could be done quite a bit smarter and faster for a better isk/hr figure.
>>152941225

Well I'd say that really was them just experimenting with how to motivate their players to play. They probably analysed a significant portion of people logging in, killing 1 rat then docking up and logging off again. Not much different from logging in, seeing their corp chat is completely dead then logging off again.
I really think alts have a lot to answer for regarding the compartmentalisation and breaking down of EVE in to smaller parts that are less cohesive and less interactive. Once you remove the need for other humans you might as well be playing a singleplayer game.

Yea slasher just flat out beats the rafter in every department
>>152951763
Thats completely arbitrary. Supers aren't even a separate class of ship they're still considered a carrier in the same way a pirate frig can still enter novice plexus because it's technically a t1 frig
>>152951164
I'm not sure if you can change the amount of fuel based on a cyno since fuel consumption is a function of mass and distance traveled
>>152954661
Carriers can dock, supers can't. Titans are also supers btw.
>>152954743
Yea but whether a ship can dock or not is on a per ship basis which is why the nut in jita can undock and do knew gain

Undock and dock
Last year this next undocked from jita 4-4 and took a lap around the station then docked again
>>152954740
Well for the purposes of the calculation take the distance and double it. Therefore mass stays the same if you want to work on mass limits but the consumption is derived from spacial compression or whatever.
omen bellicose roam tonight m8s?
Minimum undercut value should be at least 1% of the top price
>market botting : gone
>0.01isk pvp : gone
Plus it greatly increases efficiency of trade by tightening the buy/sell gaps and applying a more reactive price towards supply & demand, instead of just some random +50% spreads in price that get botted by Jita flip bots the second they appear on the botter's spreadsheet (source: me)
Give me 1 (one) reason to not implement that RIGHT NOW
>>152961526
or how about make it cost a bunch of money to adjust/cancel your order
>>152961662
i.e to be able to only adjust it by a step of 1%s of the price, which will cost you 1% of the price
>>152961735
why a fixed amount though that's dumb
>>152961796
What do you mean by a fixed amount? That 1% is constantly adjusting depending on the price:
>Plex min sell order is 1,000mil for an example. You want to sell your Plex. Great, but you'll either have to agree to 1b and put up an order of that much, or undercut that order by -1% (990mil).
That way, if the Plex price drops to 500m for some reason, the 1% auto-adjusts to 5mil instead of 10mil
>>152950213
Alts come with SP, and plausibly it only.
>>152962047
it's still 1%
why bother, just do what I said instead
>>152961796
>1%
>fixed amount
I do hope you're pretending to be retarded
>>152962182
What the fuck is wrong with 1%?
And in your example, you're simply taxing the seller, while in mine, the buyer pays less (hence driving up demand for lower prices). You are already paying that 1% by decreasing the price, it's just going to the buyer (cheaper item) instead of being taxed by the game
>>152962194
I hope you are
>>152962410
What, you're going to have a different percentage for different kinds of goods?
Yes let's add needless complexity like that, that's what eve needs.
>>152962410
Do you even understand what a percentage is you cretin?
>>152962923
why is it needless
I think you need a better reason for 1% than "lol ur dumb for disagreeing with me"
how much more expensive should it be to cancel the order and place a new one at 99.5% of your old price than to do your 1% undercut
they could make it something like you can only have x significant figures or whatever it's called when you price something. so if there's something for sale for 900,000, you can do 899,000, but not 899,999.99. just to make the prices move faster, and have less unsubstantial undercutting where everything is basically the same price, but theirs is a millionth cheaper so none of yours will ever sell ever

this is b8
>>152963543
mine was about what prices can exist, the other guy's thing was about price changes. so you have your thing priced at x, other guy undercuts you by 0.01, and then you adjust by 1%, then he adjusts by 1%. it's still aids
>>152963567
kys
>>152963696
> and then you adjust by 1%, then he adjusts by 1%
And how far do you think that can keep going on before sell orders go below buy orders? Are you literally 12?
>>152961526
>tightening the buy/sell gaps
lmao nigga. How the fuck would people make money on the market then?
>>152963873
exactly, so you'd be stuck there with someone else's order 0.01 isk more competitive than yours, and you're just fucked
>>152961526
>Minimum undercut value should be at least 1% of the top price
No that's dumb because wow had that for the longest time and there were never anything higher than 1 unit sell and buy orders because taxes a bitch
There's nothing wrong with the way the taxes are now
>>152963970
1% of the top order.
Top order was 100.
Your order is now 99.
The old order is not 98.9. It stays at 100 or goes down to 98. And order that is more competitive by yours with a value of less than 1% is impossible to exist
Never reply to me again
Market must not be restrained.
>>152963970
>you're just fucked
If the price reaches that point no one will undercut and it will sell very quickly so your order wouldn't be far behind.
>>152964179
>make low volume order for low price
>well now the guy you want to undercut isn't the top order, so now you can 0.01 isk him, then cancel the other order
doing it like this >>152963408 seems way simpler
>>152964198
Yes, but not in an environment where a bot completely replaces the human being
Also, if it must not be restrained, mind removing that 5min update delay while you're at it and see how long can you compete against a bot that undercuts every 5 seconds?
>>152964179
No you're fucking retarded
1 percent the top order when the top order is constantly shifting downward towards the buy order tour getting exactly what he said
>>152964236
Thats not how it works you fag.
>>152963898
This. A 10M ship getting price cut at 1% is 100,000.
>>152964236
>it will sell very quickly
People aren't competing to sell for the lowest price, they're selling to get their product sold first
Your idea of a flat 1 percent reduction requirement stifles the market competition and doesn't speed anything up because you're creating a hurdle
>>152964381
Yeah ok son. It's not like I've traded on the market for years.
But by all means keep throwing your retarded ideas out there so we can keep shooting them down.
>>152964483
>they're selling to get their product sold first
Not at any cost.
Unless there's some lolmarketpvp going on, people don't sell at a loss generally speaking.
>>152964621
I never said anything about selling at a loss
I said they aren't selling for the lowest price they're selling to get their shit sold first which is why 0.01 isk ING is a thing
>>152964724
Selling at a loss is inevitable if you have that 1% minimum and you want your order to absolutely stay on top.
The spread between buy and sell would become unprofitable significantly faster than with 0.01 isking.
>>152964724
Not that guy
You're probably thinking that the buy price will reach X, the sell price will reach X+1% and that's how it will stay pretty much permanently ("stifle it"), but that's not what will actually happen. For such a stifling to occur, a MASSIVE volume has to exist for both sell and buy orders, and such a volume cannot exist for item that is unprofitable to trade, therefor the market will constantly re-adjust itself (by traders moving to trade another item, volume dropping for the old one, causing price to drop too and spreads to be restored, until its profitable again and the process repeats)
what if you could make an order that automatically changes price
>>152964179
>And order that is more competitive by yours with a value of less than 1% is impossible to exist
Or I just cancel my order and set it back up to be 0.01 isk below yours again completely negating your 1 percent bullshit
>>152965150
Why wouldn't the market level at the lowest margins? It takes very little for 1% of value to close already small revenues.
Something sells for 57M, buy orders at 36M. That's 36 undercuts.
Caracals are 11.4M, buys at 5M. That's 56 undercuts.
All none to say what's actually profitable over taxes.
>>152965598
Lull.
>>152965150
>For such a stifling to occur, a MASSIVE volume has to exist for both sell and buy orders,
OK so mass volume shit is a anything with minerals, ships like frigates, PI mats and ship ammo including faction ammo
hourly reminder that this
>they could make it something like you can only have x significant figures or whatever it's called when you price something. so if there's something for sale for 900,000, you can do 899,000, but not 899,999.99
is far better and simpler
>>152965020
Your 1 percent idea is completely negated because I just cancelled. My order instead of updating it then I took my same material and put it back up for just 0.01 under yours
>>152965598
>>152965812
>shit-tier arguments
A few lines of code can be written to adjust the scope of postable orders to be either +/- 1% of the top one, or at its current top price. Completely eliminates that.
>>152965713
No. The moment a stagnation is caused, an over-supply follows, which then lowers the demand (and price) for all the materials used for manufacturing it, making it cheaper to be manufactured, disrupting the stagnation with cheaper product. The new cheaper product restores the demand for the materials (people start buying them again because its now profitable again), causing their prices to rise. Their prices rise, so does the end product's as a result. And that creates a constantly-moving cycle that will always disrupt stifling. Example:
>I build item X that costs 1000 of material M (currently valued at 1m isk per piece), costing me a total of 1bil.
>The market of X, however, becomes stifled as too many people manufacture X and there's a FUCKTON of orders at the same, minimal price. It is no longer as profitable to manufacture X.
>I had to resupply my stockpile with 1k of M for tomorrow, but wont do it because my item simply doesn't sell (thanks stagnation!)
>A couple of hundred other people reach the same conclusion, and don't buy their daily resupply of M material, causing its demand to drop DRASTICALLY
>The price of M is now 900k per piece (was 1m initially), causing item X to cost 900mil to be manufactured instead (was 1bil)
>All of the market's top buy orders get filled for the instant profit of 100mil per piece
>Stagnation is removed, spread is restored, item is now profitable again, input material's demand is restored and therefor price is restored too
And that's how the market will self-adjust and fix the stagnation problem on its own - supply & demand
>>152966756
Your idea does nothing but stifle the markets by manipulating the prices of goods
Fuck off socialist
>>152966756
Aren't there too many production constraints for "price of manufacturing has lessened a FUCKTON"?
>>152967757
>>152967779
The market actually works exactly like that right now. The rig market is an excellent representation of what I wrote (even if 0.01 exists), and if you had spent a minimum of a week of industry/trading, you would've known that already.
Moreover, the real world's supply chains are exactly like that too.
Kinda shows me the level of knowledge those shit-tier arguments come from.
>>152966756
>>I had to resupply my stockpile with 1k of M for tomorrow, but wont do it because my item simply doesn't sell (thanks stagnation!)
>>A couple of hundred other people reach the same conclusion, and don't buy their daily resupply of M material, causing its demand to drop DRASTICALLY
>>The price of M is now 900k per piece (was 1m initially), causing item X to cost 900mil to be manufactured instead (was 1bil)
>>All of the market's top buy orders get filled for the instant profit of 100mil per piece
This is artifical entirely. The market already does this fluently and doesn't need artificial multipliers like this
Look at the price of almost any good and you'll see price fluctuations and volume fluctuations everywhere, this what it's already doing and your idea doesn't stop or help that at all
>>152968025
That's not a rebuttal. Goods selling at low margins already is hugely impacted by that idea.
>>152965812
You have a shit argument because you would be paying broker's fees again, cutting into even more of your profits.
You really can't into the market. Just stop posting about things you do not understand.
>>152968071
You didn't get it - I'm not saying that we need the 1% undercut rule to cause something like this. It's nothing but a bot-prevention as constant 0.01ing becomes useless
>>152968141
>Goods selling at low margins already is hugely impacted by that idea.
No they're not. If you're not willing to wait for your Tritanium sell orders (along with the 200 other people dumping at the exact same price) to fill, you simply sell the item for 1% lower. If you're not willing to do that, there's a supply/demand problem somewhere along the chain and the market will simply fix it and adjust the price shortly. The real world (the Forex), for an example, has buy/sell orders of THOUSANDS of different people list at the exact same prices and works flawlessly without any "stifling" or hovering around the same price. The reason is that the price was never defined by what's locally traded, but is defined by the entire chain behind it
>>152965812
>>152965598
So you would rather pay 2% (best case scenario) broker's fees rather than this theoretical 1% minimum?
You're even more retarded than I could possibly imagine. Kindly biomass yourself irl.
>>152968486
>The margins will be fine because reasons
M8, the margins would close because people have goods to sell. Now all of a sudden, fewer characters can be in the market because there are only 30 orders before the margins are completely closed.
>>152968782
You didn't actually read what he wrote did you?
>>152968372
>You have a shit argument because you would be paying broker's fees again, cutting into even more of your profits.
Your argument is entirely arbitrary and creates price fixing within the economy
Your idea does nothing but creates stifling environments and forces people to a completely pointless mechanic as a sort of solution and your only dumb excuse is "ur losing profit on broker fees" which is only 100 isk as if it fucking matters
>>152968912
He's claiming that low margins is a supply/demand problem, but supply is artificially reduced.
>>152969009
>but supply is artificially reduced
what
>>152969072
by there being only 30-50 orders before the margins are null.
>>152969009
>but supply is artificially reduced
u wot m8
>>152968702
>broker's fees rather than this theoretical 1% minimum?
Your idea is 1‰ translated onto what price I'm allowed to adjust to, not the creation of a sell order which is only 1‰
Your dumb idea wants to put a spread that's not even needed across a market which is just going to stifle the shit out of low margin items and high volume items
Why doesn't /vg/ have flags so I can filter this north korean trade restrainer.
>>152968981
>ur losing profit on broker fees" which is only 100 isk as if it fucking matters
jesus christ just kill yourself
>>152969226
It's not my idea numbnuts. Contrary to popular belief there is more than 2 people on /eog/.
Effectively paying 2% of your order to NPCs is wasting money when an alternative exist, regardless if that 1% idea is dumb or not.
>>152968981
Broker fee when putting up your order again is 2% of your asking price you fucking retard, not 100 isk.
It's like you idiots never even used the market yet need to interject your shit opinion anyway
>>152969250
You know what it costs me to update an order? Just 100 isl
Your idea wants to force me to lose 1 percent more every time I want to update which is fucking huge and stifles everyone else in the process
>>152969468
Read the conversation chain before you embarass yourself further.
Hell I'll even spoonfeed you: he wanted to cancel the order and put it up again to avoid the mandatory 1% price cut.
>>152969120
Either I don't understand what you're trying to say, or you're not understanding what I'm trying to say
When such an event occurs, both sides of the entire supply chain will be affected. Trit for an example, a stifling happens (somehow magically, but anyway) and prices are squeezed to very tight margins (difference of top buy and top sell orders is 1%).
Well, the solution is quite fucking simple actually. The mining corps that dump Trit no longer have to play undercutting and can directly dump their entire Trit stockpile to buy orders, as the difference of them waiting for hours for sell orders to fill and directly filling buy orders is a mere 1%. Moreover, a part of the current sell orders for Trit decide that they've had enough of waiting for them to fill and simply dump it.
That way, the spread is widened from both sides and the reasonable "balance" is restored.
Please don't make me write another fucking reply paraphrasing the same reply for the 5th time
>>152969450
>Broker fee when putting up your order again is 2% of your asking price you fucking retard, not 100 isk.
You want me to update my order for a full 1 percent every time I update regardless
2 percent once and maybe I update my order 15 times for 1500 isk is way better than effectively paying 1 percent every single time I update
If I update 2 times I've already lost more isk than I would have paying 2 percent once because you're compounding 1 percent multiple times over and over again
>>152969580
And updating 2 times having to lose 1 percent each time loses you more money than putting up the order once
This idea is retarded
>>152969643
I'm not the one who brought this 1% minimum idea into the mix, I'm just telling you that cancelling your order to avoid this 1%, then putting it up again and instantly losing 2% (without even the guarantee that it will sell) is fucking moronic.
>>152969643
It's like he had a minor stroke while writing this post
what the fuck are you even trying to say
>selling JF
>forced to undercut by 70M
Nice idea lol.
>>152969760
The idea is dumb
I'd rather pay 2 percent once then update as many times I want for virtually free
Boy /eog/ sure is being more retarded than usual today.
I hope it's just an elaborate shitposting attempt but I kinda doubt it.
>selling ANYTHING
>forced to compete with automated programs that undercut you right away and are never getting banned
nice one lmao
>>152969769
2%< (1%*n)^n where n is the number of times you update. 1 percent to update compounds a lot where 2 percent is fixed and finite
>>152969908
You use a market bot don't you.
I find it hard to believe people are willingly playing and enjoying the 0.01 isk game.
>>152970061
>I don't like or understand something that means your rationalization is dumb
>>152970049
You're putting this 2% 1% thing in a totally different context, moron. That's not what they were arguing about.
>he lives in jita
>>152970163
No really , you genuinely enjoy having to babysit your orders by changing them by 0.01 isk?
You'd honestly be the first I've ever heard of.
>>152970049
Are you sure my man?
How about this
I'm not paying taxes for my updates, but you are.
At the end of the day, my item sells after 3 1% updates, while your supreme undercutting technique costed you 3x2% taxes, and sold at what my item sold at ANYWAY, just 0.01 isk above it
Same outcome, except you paid 6% in taxes
>>152970185
The idea is dumb regardless of what it is
There's nothing wrong with the current market tax bracket and market mechanic
yeah or we could just say you can only do orders with a price of 3 digits followed by your choice of 0s
>>152970356
I'm not canceling my order. I'm simply updating the nominal way
Stop putting words in my mouth
>>152970384
Except... market bots?
There would be no problem if CCP was competent at detecting them and banning them so we have a fair playing field.
>>152970384
>there's nothing wrong with having to sit and actively 0.01 orders every 5 minutes for 10 hours a day to have a chance of having them filled before all the bots do
>>152969585
It's artificial margin reduction, by 1%. Why wouldn't buy orders also be pushed toward sell orders simultaneously? It's still only X orders until either margins meet or it isn't profitable to even sell the item from manufacturing.
You're suggesting that just because sell orders can be reduced to buy orders in 30 undercuts, somehow margins will completely correct. Trit is an awful example because it doesn't have a production cost.
>>152970495
How the fuck are you updating it the nominal way if you're FORCED to undercut by 1%
This has to be an organized shitposting, I refuse to believe that people can be as logically impaired and play this game
>it's good to be able to undercut people by 0 isk because reasons I'm totally not a botter btw
>>152970495
Yes anon. You can update the normal way but the other guy can only update by 1% increments.
That's right, you're retarded.
>>152970586
But the market already works like that?
There are high-volume manufacturing products that reach insanely tight margins (less than 1%) and correct themselves from that high unprofitability to a very high profitability within 2 days.
>>152970737
>I undercut 200isk on a 100isk item like a fag, but at least I'm human lmao
If you don't want a rollercoaster 0,01 is the most stable way.

>buy up all the compact microwarpdrives in jita under 200% market price
>relist them all at 200% market price
0.01 isking doesn't prevent shit.
If anything, it will cause that inflated price to stay even longer because almost everyone 0.01 isks it, rather than cutting it by thousands/tenthousands

How do you even read the market orders so you know what to undercut?
Do you have to export the data for that order like every 5 minutes then?
