You have the right to voice your concern, but only if you have suffecient reason, or proof that the game itself needs balancing, tweeking, or looking into. The whole I do not have enough ISK woes is actually a -- "You, the player problem." -- rather then a game problem. I've already stated this several times, but people do not like hearing the bitter truth. I myself am an abover average player. On an average I make about a hundred thousand ISK or more precisely just above that. My worst games I make about seventy-five to eighty thousand. Only when I get shafted onto the D-Team, and we're overrun though in a stampede. What most people are neglecting though is the balancing point. The whole point is for you the player to know what you want to do and how you need to balance yourself. If you have to play starter fits to buy that specific skill then suck it up. If you want to run better, or more precisely more personalized gear instead of purchasing or acquiring skills then choose to do so. You cannot however this early into the game -- unless you are in the one percent -- do both at the same time. Again it's a lot like real life and balancing your finances, and assets. Think of it this way if you must do you want to pay the electric bill today and keep your electric on, or go splurge on yourself and buy that new Iphone (just an example)? Paying the penalty fees and payment later.
I've said it again, and I'll do it again -- if you the player do not know how to balance your finances in real life then New Eden and the EVE universe will be your nightmare. If you are not five steps ahead; you are three steps behind. Simple as that. This game is a better teacher when it comes to balancing ones finances then any school, or most parents in this life lesson(s).
I'm not trying to come off as the biggest jerk in New Eden. Just telling you the truth. Expecting to be able to do too many things at once and get away with it is asking too much. If you over extend yourself that is your problem. Simply put -- If you are spending more then you have coming in, you have a problem. Nuff' said. Now does that mean we do not need the player trade market? No, infact we do. That we can all agree on. The faster we can sell, or tade our unused assets and turn them into extra profits the better. I also agree that CCP should look into rebalancing the militia tech level dropsuits, and fixing the glitch that is plaguing some people who are being affected. Still in the end if you are not acquiring enough ISK it's a you problem. Be more agressive. The game more or less demands you stop camping and start going for the objective. Will you die? Yes, oh by the lords of gaming you will. I die a lot, but I am on the front lines all the time. I expect to die. It's built into the lore of the game even. I die for the sake of profits, and someone elses worldly goals, or needs. Fill my pocket full of ISK and you have a friend in me.
Just for the sake of wanting to know though I would like to see the statistics on the average amount of ISK players as a whole are bringing in. This would determine soley if more ISK is needed or not. I am just above the average it would seem making about a hundred thousand, but is fifty thousand ISK really the average or is a hundred thousand the average? Unknown. |
