It's a rare day when I go over 2 million ISK, that's what I get for running solo and staying out of PC :p
I basically never ever ever use my proto gear, it's just there to look pretty (aside from my Ishukone forge), it's basically all advanced gear for me.
Who else wishes they could sit on their Merc Quarters couch to look for extra change? |

Really, the only thing is this game I find enjoyable is flying. Infantry gameplay is terribly balanced and boring as hell, so trying to earn money without flying is a terrible drag. I feel for you brother, I miss my wings but it was quite literally bad for my health :/
Can't take that level of stress from a video game >_<
I'll envy you if CCP ever pulls their heads out of their asses when it comes to vehicle balance, but who knows |

Matticus Monk wrote:I'm actually surprised given that you say you never use your proto gear. Are your advanced fits that expensive and do you die more than 2-3 times a match? Unlike normal sensible people, I roll solo and tend to "go hard" in my advanced gear regardless of how badly my team is getting curb stomped. I'm always the one flying around in an LAV capping objectives and assaulting random points while the rest of my team is getting slaughtered back at base
I die between 1 and 7 times in any given game, though I have plenty where I die more if I'm just messing around. Average fit is like 60k heavy. I wish I could remove every point I dumped into ARs, such a boring weapon |

::shrugs::
I'd be fine with ISK if I hadn't become a dedicated dropship pilot when Uprising launched.

You forgot tanks and dropship pilots. They usually lose money everyday ever since Uprising. Just because I launch my LAV in the air and jump out as it smashes into 4 or 5 reds while I light them up with my HMG means nothing, dont judge me...
And as for chromosome money, I burned through 100 million on dropships but quick |

gbghg wrote:^ ain't that the truth, clocking in at roughly 1 million ISK a fit, and having to get used to the new handling and front turret, combined with the AV damage boost and dropships being passes over in the HP buff for vehicles (oh and that PG nerf) meant that dropships were both more expensive and died quicker, I burnt through 90 million ISK in less than a month. I was trying my damnedest to make Logi ships work, I ran full tank most of the time at about 1.4 million per ship (I tried to give my gunners good guns, bad idea....)
It did not go well....

What I like to do from time to time is take a budget like.... 20k and see what I can do with it and try to make a suit that's decent. This normally tends to work out honestly. Its not great for K/d but it is great for ISK efficiency. Not to mention that ive got sooooo many SP now. Even with out the god suits I can still take a standard caldari suit and make it into something that's good enough to compete with advanced suits. (and I have killed proto suits in it too, though that's much harder). So in a way..... you can take the challenge and make that fun! It's stupid but having too many fits makes my OCD attack me whenever I go into the fitting screen, so I try to keep it fairly organized, even though I still have too many fits for my liking >_<
Thinking about ISK automatically makes me lose enjoyment from playing. That's why I'm not complaining about being poor, I play to have fun, worrying about ISK saps that fun out of the game for me, so I just grab my HMG and join the party

I hate locks, stoves , tiles and anything else that makes my OCD go F****** nuts. Its like my minds on fire as my skin crawls with invisible germs I cant seem to wash off no matter how many times I bathe and wash my hands. I pray for a cure one day until then the only thing that helps me is vitamin Green but it is hard to get were I am so I am slowly sipping into paranoid insanity. Mine is very mild and selective thankfully, it more or less piques my anxiety in most cases. I feel for you as well, mental health issues are no joke and they can really take it out of you.
Keep up the good fight bro |

I myself would gladly do this save the fact that I hate dual boxing a scout and when I was in null kept derping into bubble camps as a result. What's a 10/10s? |

>_<
I could never get into those games, same reason I can't play games like GTA: My ADD goes berserk and I wind up just walking around in circles with no clue as to what I want / am supposed to do
