-Costs nothing.
-Can easily destroy stuff that costs something.
-Zero risk, full reward.
-Goes entirely against the spirit of New Eden, and every basic principle in Eve.

Move along merc's. Nothing to see here...
Wrong.
You are risking your pod/clone, which costs money to replace. Failure to replace your grade of clone results in lost SP upon death.
So flying around in your newbie ship forever will eventually bite you in the ass. |

So flying around in your newbie ship forever will eventually bite you in the ass. Clones in PC will cost your entire corp, who cares if there's no risk in instant battles? I mean besides tryhards running proto.
I don't have any planets now. I think our corp is pretty alive.

It's meant to cost nothing so you can make an ISK profit however, you get reduced survivability and damage output. You will be cannon fodder for advanced and proto players.
Strangely, I don't notice much of a difference between standard and militia-fitted dropsuits. All are cannon fodder.
EDIT: I forgot to mention.....BPO-only fittings.....
I just ran around punking protos in my untrained militia assault frontline starter kit. All it requires is that I see them before they see me. This is hardly an uncommon occurance.
The point is, there is no incentive to run anything higher than a starter kit. Victory is not rewarded, so why risk assets? MCC AFK'rs use the same logic. I just get to have more fun than they do, because I'm ruining someones day by costing them fake space money they may have acquired from the use of real money.
Dust is broken. Perhaps they should consider fixing the most basic PUG mode before they start messing with the part of the game that actually matters? |

If anyone is spending more on a match than they'll actually gain, then they've already lost in my book.
Entirely the point. |

I can kill you and smartbomb your pod while you are doing this.
You are always at risk. |
