Well this is just your typical FPS player not quite getting the whole dynamic at hand here. One's ability to perform well in an FPS game is so stupidly meaningless in actually affecting things in EVE it's not even worth considering as a factor. Oh you killed the enemy and captured the Skyfire and blew up some EVE ship in orbit? Woo......no one cares. People lose ships all the time in EVE, and although it can sometimes sting, its just the cost of doing business. Blowing up some ship in orbit will change very little, it won't cause a shift in power, it wont take out an alliance, it won't do anything. Your ability to shoot people on the ground means nothing.
Like someone said before, FPS ability has nothing to do with your cunning in the meta game. You can come riding in here on your ego horse and act like you're going to outsmart the EVE players because you can shoot people in the head...let me tell you, they will devour you. Non-EVE players are joining the game late, and everyone that's been around in EVE for a long time is going to put all of the new players to shame if they go showboating around thinking they'll make a difference.
Is EVE ready for players like protoman and BAD FURRY? Truth is, they don't give a ****. They are ants on a rock, and as individuals they are of no consequence to EVE in the least. All the EVE players care about is how they can use the Dust players to make a profit. To them, you are just tools and a means to an end. |

This is very true, one thing i see people constantly fail to see is there are EVE players who are good at FPS games.
Well I don't like to really whip out the e-peen but I feel I'm pretty good at FPS games, and I also play EVE. I'm no huge player in the meta game, but I know enough of what goes on to know that most of these Dust players are in way over their head....despite how large said head might be. |

yeah I've found that I'm often one of the younger players when it comes to EVE and Dust. At first this bothered be a bit but then I saw games like CoD that's full of 14 year olds and I decided that playing with older players is far better. |

Yeah...considering Titans can be upwards of 17km long...our entire map would fit inside it's rectum. Skyfire might tickle a little. |
