One week into GoonWaffe (and EVE itself) and I still haven't got the slightest clue what is going on.

Positive: I've participated in 4 fleets.
Negative: 99% of time has gone to figuring out where the gently caress everyone warped to.

Positive: Properly doing skill training according to the wiki page.
Negative: Can only pilot a lovely Atron, even mining doesn't look feasible currently in nullsec (NPC-s kill me).

Positive: Every exchange I've had with people from GoonWaffe has been nothing but positive.
Negative: nothing.

Positive: Managed to scavenge some PVP wrecks for about 2M ISK of loot.
Negative: Flew to nullsec with 10M, down to 5M in ISK now.

Positive: Almost read through all the basic articles on the Wiki.
Negative: That appears to account for approximately 0.05% of the Wiki content. Still no clue what most of the words and abbreviations on GoonWaffe forums stand for. Should I submit my Atron losses through Affordable care? What the gently caress is an ESI/CREST link? How come everyone manages to align to locations in a second and I need to navigate 30 seconds to find the right spot in place?

Looks fun, guess this is the best time (so many skills to still train) to continue figuring poo poo out, before I am able to fly (and get destroyed) in higher value ships.

That may be, but they have over a decade of experience maintaining it, which is every bit as valuable to a software team.


Python is simply the scripting language they use for certain aspects of their networked systems and internal tooling. It's anything but dead and obsolete. It's one of the most in-demand programming languages on the planet. They use it for their API layer, while C++ drives the client as well as the primary game engine code on the server side, which is blazingly fast.

If being active to get in is against the rules, I'm probably already hosed anyway because I've never been a really active poster. I don't see the point in pretending anyone is an idiot. If we could go out by our pirate lonesome and be successful, I would not be looking to gang up. I'm willing to be more active so as not to be the only chumps not ganging up. I feel like a goon because I have benefited time and again from goon knowledge. That's all I'm trying to do now. If that's in the form of information in the thread that I can use to do better in a video game, great. If it means I get to join in on antics that live in PVP infamy, that would be pretty stellar too.

I'll just apply to Goonwaffe and hope for the best.

If mandozer can get back in 5 times Kimsemus probably could. But he'd have to actually admit to being wrong and learn from his past which will never happen, especially with this game dead in one year.

Kimsemus posted:

I've admitted I was wrong, and I do now. I definitely made mistakes and wasn't immersed enough in the culture to do well in ArcheAge. Most people I've made amends with, and I was able to apologize to and play with deadtear in Life is Feudal. Actually came to respect him tremendously.

So yeah, I am sorry for how I handled things. Now I wish I could put it in the past and play EVE with other goons, since I've finally left ncdot behind. I can't be much more forthright than that. I want to just munch rocks and crunch hulls and take out fleets with goons.

If at any given moment, N3 ping for all hands on dick supercarriers and capital ships, they will get more individual people in fleet than your entire coalition can combined on its very best day.

This isn't conjecture, this is something that has been proven again and again because your leaders like to bury their heads in the sand and ignore the game itself in favor of posting and posturing and writing tl;dr CEO updates about garbage that will never see the light of day (and if it does, the only place it will be is on the killboard of my alliance) instead of realizing that every capital and supercapital pilot with a pulse and a will to use their dread/super/titan/slowcat is gravitating towards one side because hey, guess what, that side actually DOES use their big toys on the regular and when push comes to shove as evidenced by the fight in DY- your alliance is literally impotent.

If a super 'fight' actually happens, it isn't going to be an actual fight, it is going to be a CFC gangrape hosted by Manny, Grath and Vince and you'll have no one to blame but your own leaders and FCs for being yes men faggots instead of growing a pair of balls and equipping some initiative.

In fact, unless one is a naked hermit who lives alone in the wilderness (in which case how the gently caress are you posting) you have to buy things from terrible people

Hello space friends I miss homeland defense jabber and the forums. Not enough to start playing again, but close. I occasionally check out the influence map to see if we've retaken Deklein but no luck so far. Keep up the good fight, I have never not believed (and will never not believe) in you.

What happened to TopGoon?

CommonShore posted:

Pretty much this. It was a bit more dragged out than that but the short version is that the people who were active and making stuff happen got sick of the lowest-common-denominator direction of things. Basically "Newbie Friendly" and "Idiot Friendly" got conflated and the "chill out low effort kill some guys" squad became the "drooling idiots crowing about pod killmails and getting fleetmates killed" squad. The people who had been making things happen went off to Reavers or Blackops.

I don't gently caress around with -0.1isk. For every 0.1 isk they drop, I drop by thousands. I'll force you to buy me out you fucker, and when you do, i'm going to add the very same amount you just bought the first minute I log in.

*edit: You fucker does not refer to Rutibex or anyone specific. Just the assholes who drop price by 0.1isk every few minutes

And because you're trying to do something on a completely different scale than most MMOs I don't know that there's anything off-the-shelf you can get as an engine to modify, rather than code an engine from scratch. It's not really a matter of tweaking. It's basically coding Eve 2.0 from scratch.
