GǪ..
I'm curious who the player is who can persuade you so easily to send goods to a "dead drop". I'm even willing to shake a condemning fist at the possible Scammers who are exploiting the naive personality of PS3 players.
But I'm sorry, I can't hold the Devs responsible for this opportunity for deception. And I've always thought it was unfair and rather short for us players to ask the game designers to "fix the car so that we can't crash it when we try to drive it drunk".
We know really that the solution is "Don't drive drunk", butGǪ.
GǪit's easier on us if we can pressure someone else int otaking responsibility for our problem? I don't know why we keep asking (keep trying to DEMAND) such "fixes".
Eve Dust 514 has always been a ruthless game design. The whole experience from the moment you set up a character, and READ the descriptions of the different characters you can be, and the slanted factional societies they come from, all says this is a game of "throw you in---learn something if you want--don't learn anything and keep dying--it's your own war." A game can't get more ruthless and without pity, than that. You don't need to have this explained to us,GǪ we can FEEL the pain of the game right on our first day.
We don't NEED to have Eve-Online explained to us by the gameGǪ
We don't NEED to have the ruthlessness and deception nature of this game turned down (believe me, it's already turned down it's brutal treatment of players quite a bit since its release).
I don't think Eve-Online had it's deceptive sides fully explained to players---not until after players fell into the traps first.
And if you are trading and trying to buy from players "blindly", without any effort to thoroughly socialize with them and check on their identities first, then we need to RAISE the trading-access threshold to Level 9 or something, so you're no longer an innocent waif with zero knowledge of the game environment. If you can't trust blue-players not to shoot you in the back in FW matches, then you know enough to navigate trading with more cleverness and no need for hand-holding from the Devs. "Handholding" ought to come from your fellow players.
I wish I could find the post, or the author who said this, so I could at least quote him/her more accurately. But the statement went something likeGǪ"The new players who most threaten to ruin Dust, are the ones who just can't hack the depth of it".
Wow, when I start making my first trades and buys next year, I'm going to have so much FUN !
Universe of good wishes for the 49, especially CCP Eterne...
No story can have life without writers and publishers.
