Never connect this to actual Eve players. Having your stuff destroyed unnecarily by a game on a platform you may not even own would be incredibly infuriating. That said, I'd love to see us to move off-world for combat. We're playing in a detailed science fiction setting - why are we restricted to some border towns in the middle of no where? Give me my cities, space stations and asteroids please. |

As a long time Eve player, hell no. The success or failure of my ships should be entirely based on upon my own skill and the skill of my opponents, not some uncontrollable third party. Randomness in mechanics is already the biggest complaint in Eve (read: ECM) and this will be no different. Suggestions like this make me hope Dust will die before anybody gets and crazy ideas and destroys my favourite game. |

How the hell have you played EVE for this long and not learned that CCP tends to make big changes and that you have to adapt to? Also you're a moron, we shouldn't be able to play a game we like because you don't like changes that might adversely affect you? Dust is here *******, get used to it :P
Except Dust's player base is declining rather rapidly. There are what, 2000 players at peak now? How are 40,000 characters suppose to defend themselves when there aren't enough mercenaries to go around? Can you even imagine losing billions because you were unable to contract a decent team of mercenaries quick enough to defend you ship in a game where engagements are usually over quicker than a typical skirmish? As fun as you may think it to be, Eve Online is larger than the tiny segment which is Dust. Why are you so eager to destroy the enjoyment of others in a game you don't currently have any stake in? |

You do realise that those numbers are the merge of Eve and Dust numbers, right? Before Dust came along Eve was averaging similar numbers anyway, and before those number combined Dust was only getting around ~5000 people peak. Pack your insults please if you're not going to fact check. |

The Lion ElJonson wrote:So you have the stats to say which are eve players and which are dust?
It's actually higher than when I last checked, but still pretty low. Check this out. Currently hanging around 4000, which is still significantly lower than than the Eve player base and no where near enough to be defending ships with. |
