1. you don't HAVE to squad up. you'll just never make any real points if you don't. other players will always be higher up then you. because if you play a team based game as a team you will do better. that's the way it should be. no scoring or sp buffs for the solo players, though. don't ask.
2. if you think it's bad now... uhm, pretty sure this beta is accelerated. we are making more money and levelling up way faster then what you can expect at retail. so if you think it's a grind now... then maybe retail isn't for you. it's going to be worse in terms of loot and worse in terms of competition. and the grind at retail should be MUCH harder then the current build.
3. 514 doesn't exist yet and won't until the actual game goes retail, EvE and 514 are tied together, the clans (the REAL clans, not what's here now) show up and start to decimate everyone, the modes open up so we aren't stuck playing sissy tdm with randumbs, the loot can be sold on the market for increased income, and really, to be honest, the only real version of 514 will be Null sec. so until null goes live, we are just hanging out testing a game engine, not a game. i wouldn't put a lot of thought into it until retail. it has a LOT of potential but it also has a lot of potential to go completely wrong and crash big time.
all these complaints about op this and sp that.
what are you guys gonna do when you face a team with a commander on a warbarge?
you think your team of randumbs is going to put up a good fight? c'mon man, get real.
c'mon if you guys are having this hard a time now, when the game actually goes live...
wel it ain't gonna get easier.
my main theory in life at the moment:
"it won't always be like this".
just gotta wait and see what happens.

uhm well...
you do realize that we are playing an accelerated version of the game? we are earning, in hi sec mind you, much more loot much faster then the retail version. if retail levels this fast, it will fail at about month 4 or 5 due to imbalance. if it is GRRRIIIND then there will be no way anyone can "beat the clock" and level up faster then everyone else. that's part of why this game is probably going to be different. the levelling alone should clear out most light weights.
also consider:
there won't be any ISK or SP freebies at retail.
we are starting with a good push as it is right now. remove the ISK and SP that we are getting as beta players and retail puts you even further back from wher you want to be.
playing as a solo player i can clock about 8 to 10k points.
playing with a squad of 4 of us together, with mics... closer to 15 to 20k.
again, you don't have to play as or with a team, but please, don't stat complaining about it later when it becomes obvious that playing solo leaves you with a deficit compared to the teams. that's just inevitable.
oh about the isk/sp beta stuff:
i saw a possible exploit and asked em about it. they told me in regards to the exploit i brought up, that it won't be an issue because you won't be getting isk as a new player the way we are as beta players. just throwin that in there so it's not a case of "bassmeant said blah blah". it wasn't me it was THEIR devs who told me this. sooooo, yeah.
this game is supposed to be tough. if it wasn't intended to be tough, it would be made by fisher price, i mean activision, instead of ccp.

actually this game IS about joining an army and playing as a team.
EVERY other game on the market has room for you kids to go twink around for ego boosting.
514, if it works, is going to be pretty team oriented, for sure in null sec.
and hell yes, teams and squads SHOULD earn more.
again, it's a team based game.
i flip your complain on it's head like this:
you wanna race in nascar.
you wanna show up for the indy 500.
you DON'T wanna drive faster then 55 mph. You don't have a team.
so your anwer to this?
make sure nobody else has a team.
oh and nobody is allowed to drive faster then your max speed.
NOW we are racing!!!
insert clown horn.
naw man, teams and squads > solo players in 514.
if you can't sorta see that now, then there is no help for ya.
tell ya what:
c'mon into null sec as a solo player and see if it feels "equal".
Peace

if this game isn't hard, then it was pointless to code.
if it is hard, you guys complain.
