of the 250 districts supposedly up for grabs were talking about dividing the total amount between atleast 50 corps some will wish to have entrire planets with multiple districts eithering being shared by Allaince members or held to opposing factions.

You are either in one of these alliances now and get a shot at it or you do really can struggle to take a few districts.

However when PC goes universal there will be hundreds of thousands of districts up for garbs and in my mind even the smallest of corps will have districts in high sec spce while the largest will be sitting in Lowsec space.

The trouble with this iterations of PC is that the players involved in it have too much ambition and will want to hold either all of it or massive swarthes of if and will most likely annihilate the smaller groups leaving between 3-5 alliances sucking all of the money out of molden heath.

Its not a good thing but if these corps earn the rights to the planets by destroying all in their way then they deserve to be winning.

However I imagine corps that are funded well enough even after being knocked out of their districts will continue to lauch small scale attacks all over alliance held space....

If perhaps corps came to a balance in PC then there would be a chance for politics and conquest EVE side to truely begin but this iteration will see EoN, Cronos, League of Infamy, and the FSC zerging everything in their path, that is unless they all turn on each other first.

you forgot ROFL, oh and those scrubs known as Negative-feedback Smile

Why would you not want be a part of that? That's a more plausible question! Because some of us are smaller corps that want to play the game to play the game. I personally don't relish the idea of having even more of a target painted on me. Aside from that, I am fairly certain that PC will be dominated by large groups that are trying desperate to validate their own self-worth or forget their *****-envy through FPS. When PC can be disrupted at any time by players harassing the District through guerilla tactics with zero intent to capture or hold the ground, then I'll be interested.

I'm pretty sure they would prefer to have slightly too few districts heavily and constantly contested in a constant slugfest than turn us loose on every planet in the universe. Would turn attacking empty districts into the equivalent of structure grinding. It is also WAAAAY too much income for the Dust economy as it stands. Even with 10x the player base. Anyone can attack anyone for 80mil ISK. It's gonna be fun.

Not only that, I think my deafness might get in the way of the communication from the other teammates. I am in love with this game, especially since I used to play EVE Online a couple years ago due to the strategy gameplay. Most of my deaf buddies prefer COD and none of them even like BF3, which is focused exclusively on teamwork (at least, from what I read.) Plus, none of them are literate enough for me to persuade them to join this game when it comes to in-game texts. If I find a squad or a group of people armed with keyboards who would rather text than use a mic, it would rock. So for now I'm soloing as a sniper, alone in the wilderness until I find a good, flexible group or corp that would communicate effectively with texts. If you know of any, let me know and I'll join the PC soon enough.

NO. should stop playing right now, you obviously not having much fun at the moment... why play a game tomorrow, that you obviously don't like ? I just don't understand you guys..you should give CCP the benefit of the doubt to tomorrow. Then if the game is bad, QQ as much as you want to... Officially we still are in the " BETA ", the game is not RELEASE to tomorrow... why is this so hard to understand ?

Why would you not want be a part of that? That's a more plausible question! if they don't fix a bunch of broken stuff in the game ranging from broken terrain to broken boxes to the other 100s of broken things, then there's no point wasting money on suits or any time on the game. go roll free suits till you cap and then play something else till the next wed, then roll free suits till you cap, lather, rinse, repeat... Probably 50% or more of my losses since Uprising have been due to a broken game or broken game mechanics, I won't be reimbursed for it, so, why risk more on anything else? OFC I hate to sound negative and you folks have been nice and polite in the ticket system, but honestly, there's allot wrong with the game right now. While I do enjoy the game a bit, I also want it right, not rushed and half-arsed. o/ Bill

I said, and i quote,"I still intend to take part, out of the hope that one day the devs fix their numerous screw ups." Which suggests that I expect things to get better in the future. Is that so hard to understand?

Smaller corps and small groups of friends that just like to hang out and battle together will need to network in the chat rooms. I created a chat room called "squad 5" anyone is welcome to stop by and offer a squad for hire or ask for a squad for hire. Feel free to fill squads there as well, need a heavy, shotgun scout, whatever. I haven't invited anybody to the chat yet, but when battles are available I'm going to spam invites.

If you are advancing near the back of the six man team it's faster to see shield flares and engage than waiting to hear someone call out, "Contact right." As an average player myself going to sit back and see about occasional squad pick-ups from channel. Holding land sounds like too much Networking, work, and e-peenage drama. When the null map really opens up I'll be more interested then. Especially when it means helping a friend's Eve alliance.
