OK, I'm feeling a bit weird here, but I wanted to post about EVE, so I'm gonna ignore the dipshit posting drama going on.

Recently, I gave in to addiction and revived one of my old accounts again. I then spend an entire evening unfucking my awful overview and working on fits.

Can I say I love the Anathema? The little flying egg is the only covert-ops I could give some guns and tackle without compromising my exploration fits.

And needlejacks are the best. Sure, wormholes are great, too. But nothing beats the simplicity of taking your explorer and just beaming yourself to a random part of the map.

And then preparing a safe spot and logging out, because you spend all the free time of your day on overview settings. :lol:

I helped a cute newbie kill Kritsan Parthus and Dagan in the SoE epic arc when they shouted for help in local a few weeks ago.

It was a very wholesome interaction between strangers in an otherwise rather toxic game, but it sticks out for that reason.

Stories like this always make me a bit melancholic. It makes me remember the time when I was a newbie having trouble with Dagan myself. But because I have the wrong type of personality to ask for help, I simply looked at my tools, realized I could do more damage by putting five weapons of the same range into my Thorax, failed again, looked again at my options, realized blasters did more damage and fit them instead, put in a couple combat drones for good measure, and finally won. This took me about an hour longer than it should have, and my Thorax died to Dagan nearly three times.

At no point during this ordeal did I ever think of the possibility to just ask for help. IN D&D terms, I think that would make my alignment Chaotic Stupid.

Is it worse than the alternative of smaller groups getting smashed by bigger groups when theyre not on? How could ccp counter both?

One possibility could be a balance factor the game calculates based on number of pilots, combined total wealth (ships, modules, money, etc.), combined total skill points and a heavy modificator based on if they have people online or not, and make that balance factor adjust what the bigger group can do to the smaller group.

Like, if the bigger group is 10x+ stronger according to the BF, structures of the weaker group suddenly can't be destroyed, if it gets even more uneven, the weaker group doesn't take damage anymore, etc.

Would be a neat way to just discard all those weird timers everywhere.

Thats an interesting idea, but sounds like people would find a way around it or to abuse it. And if its giving complete or significant amounts of invulnerability at scale then people definitely will.

True, most possible solutions eventually run into the problem of people who want to win at all costs clogging up the system. Most other MMOS have given up long ago and just made PVP and PVE servers be disconnected from each other.

The most interesting example of this isn't even a real MMO: NMS has opt-in PVP, so you can in theory gently caress up other player's bases, but if you just want to build in peace and maybe have a random player stumble upon your manifesto to your own madness, you can just not opt-in. (In fact, due to financial reasons, I'm not paying for Sony's online service, which means NMS is basically PVE-only for me. I can still visit players and vice versa, it's just not possible for me to actually meet another player.)

The sad thing is, EVE's main draw is PVE+PVP all on the same shard, so the "solution" of other games to not do that kind of doesn't work, to put it mildly.

I still think this poo poo should be better balanced than loving timers on everything, like it is now.

A single bomber can only launch one bomb per run, but the bombs can take damage from AOE weapons, e.g. eachother. So if there's 8 bombers with covops 5, the 7th bomb to explode will kill the 8th bomb before it can explode, so a wave of 8+ bombers will only be as effective as 7 bombers.

Couldn't you get around this by staggering your bomber squads with some good timing? Send in a bombing run of 7x bombers first, and then send the second one in time to launch bombs, so the first wave is already safely exploded 1�2 seconds before the next wave hits, and so on.

Nowadays with voice comms and poo poo that kind of coordination should be possible. Just collect 49 friends and train them in separate squads against some dummy targets in your own space until the timing works, and you are go.

Anyone do the Crimson Harvest event?

Any idea why the Blood Raider Gauntlet is worth so much less than Tetrimon Base? I've done like 7-8 total now and every blood raider site drops like 20-40 mln, and every Tetrimon base seems to drop 80-120 in boosters and frozen bodies. It just seems silly to do!

From what I've learned of how CCP thinks over the years, that's by design: CCP wants you to side with the bad pirates, which means whatever enemy the pirates have will always get the better loot, to incentivize you to go blow them up.

I kinda wanna do FW but I don't want to train an alt, don't want to lose standings to some empire, and especially don't want to watch for hostile militia members in all of highsec. I guess I could sort of deal with these things since I spend most of my time in lowsec anyway, but they just pile so many obstacles in front of it. I'll probably never touch the pirate FW stuff for the same reason. It's kinda sad.

Something something mercenary contract limited to CONCORD-approved warzones with consequences limited to these areas, just do something like this.

Couldn't you just throw out a cheap alpha? There's not exactly a huge barrier to entry in FW

also I think Havoc was supposed to make FW more accessible, but I haven't stayed up on track with that since they announced the new Angel-ships and I've spend all my EVE-time looking at them

Yeah, but then you're limited to very basic ships with very basic skills and I'm gonna have more fun doing other stuff with a bigger box of toys on my main. It's why I don't wanna go the alt route. It's either a lot of time, isk or money to train one up.

You may be surprised, you can even use Navy ships and some T2-weapons now on alphas.

But I understand, no-one can do everything, at some point you need to cut something loose. I made a FW-alt years ago, but I never have the time to actually use that pilot. Though I guess if I ever do have the time, the pilot is now there.

Also if you never start one you'll never have one takes only a few mins to make the account and set the skill queue if you never touch it again not much lost

Mind you, that only means the queue stops working. You can put skill points from other sources (like alpha injectors, or log-in bonuses) in until you are above 20+ million sp.

For gently caress's sake, 7 days Omega-time for free? Don't do this to me, CCP. I can't resist the temptation to grab that poo poo, even though I'm not really playing. (I have enough unused, dormant accounts that this is like getting 40 bucks gifted.)

Ugh, I don't even want to know how painful this would be for one of those crazy people who multibox dozens of accounts.

How do you get 7 days for free? Do I...do I need to...log in? /shudder

CCP wants you to use their NES in-game shop. So you log in, fire up NES, and then you'll "buy" 7 days Omega time for 0 bucks. One-time offer, per account. So if you have 7 accounts and click your way through each, that's the equivalent of getting 7x7=49 days for free.

Of course, at some point I guess your fingers will start falling off, so there's a drawback

I had the same experience with pubbies, endless terrible clacking noises. Needs push to talk so badly.

Like, the movement/shooting/environment is fine enough, but not having anything else to it is so meh. After a couple rounds you've seen everything there.

I guess CCP Rattati is going to be talking on stream later today so curious what he says. He's the one man army that did a ton of good work on Dust, so he might actually have interesting stuff to say.

Are there even other players? I tried a little bit, and my experience so far was:

-Walking up an incline I suddenly got a warning to turn back to the mission area, but I got killed before I could even turn around, yikes
-Second try, walking into a different direction, enemies with names like "Grunt 69" showed up, I assume bots. I killed two of them by simply slowly walking towards them and firing my dinky little gun. Then an invisible enemy somewhere behind me killed me again.

Then I called it a day because the game runs like poo poo on my PC.

My personal review: It doesn't play like DUST at all, it runs bad, it is a confusing mess and I had no idea what I was supposed to do. Also whoever thought it was a good idea to force you to press and hold a key to make your map show up should be shot like Grunt 69. Also no lasers so far. 0/10, try again CCP.

there's a reason "Winning EVE" refers to not playing it

I just loaded into the game for the first time as a badass-looking corporation gunner, and this interface is anything unlike I've ever seen. What the hell...

Welcome to EVE.

Sadly, this is actually a great improvement. Back when I started playing in Winter 2012/2013, the interface confused me so much I stopped playing for a few months after first contact.

Only reading in this forum what people were actually doing in-game made me realize that my brain had just misinterpreted everything the game had told me, and tried again. Nowadays at least the tutorial is less poo poo!

I assume it's as poo poo as it sounds.

It's perfect for people who don't already play EVE, I think. Because who else would have the time?
