There is not much to say. I don't think all the people can enjoy Planetary Conquest if they are raped from behind all the time.

I don't play EVE but I think there is some kind of "safe zone" for new players or something like that. I really don't know.

I hope CCP notice this kind of "difference" between corporations.

Yes, there is alternatives for new corporations like join into an alliance and start to grow, but anyways.

Of course some people enjoy this kind of games, some people don't, and some people just don't care about it.

For me, this is kinda sad.

When I comes to small corps I am all about reduced clone costs, reduced attack windows etc.Dislike!

This sort of thing was discussed at length in the old PC megathread pre-fanfest/Uprising but is a bad idea - anything that gives smaller corps any kind of advantage would just result in bigger corps splitting into multiple small corps in alliance just to take advantage of the difference. Small corps would still be at exactly the same level as the big ones once again.

This simply isn't true. As an example, district size could restrict the size of teams allowed to battle. Say, district size, the smallest, allows only one squad on each side to battle for it as an extreme example . Now large alliances and corps can split up all they want, but that wouldn't get them a combat advantage. They could probably have an endurance advantage because the small district would produce proportionally less clones, etc.

So, if the small corp can stand against another squad from a big corp in combat then fine. This sort of concept makes sense to me and seems reasonable.

Some kind of matchmaker that evens out players by skill, so less skilled and organized teams can compete against better teams (as opposed to simply larger teams) I do not support at all.

He was referring to a clone discount for smaller corps, as opposed to bigger corps, to allow the smaller corps to viably be in PC.

Understood. As I said, I don't support concepts like the OP's. PC is essentially Dust's endgame and should be unrestricted as much as possible. Personally, I like the idea of district sizes which is why I brought it up, and CCP has mentioned considering it. I don't think it's a good idea to have something like the OP suggests though, and I think something like that would be exploited by splitting up larger corps/alliances.

And that video you linked shows no reason why matchmaking is needed in PC - all it shows is a match where one team outclassed the other.

Don't get mad guys. I have nothing against big and pro corps like yours. And I think, smaller corps will have more changes to enjoy PC after CCP open more planets, etc. But even so, what's the point to take a planet/district, if 1 minute after that, an epic big corp, super trooper pro corp like yours, **** those guys and take that land.

I mean, yes, they have instant battles (kinda boring after hit the sp cap), Faction Warfare (I have not idea what's that), and they can join to some alliance, etc.

But, what are the possibilites for a corp to keep their players if that corp can't "offer" a pretty important part of the game. Players will look for another corp. Big epic corps won't take a lot of "random" players and big alliances won't take a lot of smallers corps.

I don't know. It looks like new corps will have a very much "hard road" to succeed in the game, because they have not much to offer, since they can't compite in PC (right now).

I was thinking in something more like normals RPGs. If you're lvl 70 for example, and you go to farm to a "newbie" place, you get nothing but a waste of time. No exp, no money, etc.

There can be some "planets" where big corps get nothing but a waste of ISK or clones to defend them. Something like that, I don't know.

If new corps have nothing to offer but "instant battles". It will be pratically impossible to grow in the game.

I wasn't talking about balance big/pro corps with new corps. Just talking about some galaxy to them, where big corps/alliances have nothing to win but waste of time.

Sorry for the english. See you.

We were the defenders in that situation so we didn't pick the fight.

@OP
I think the problem you are trying to describe is that large corporations will dominate New Eden and all the small guys won't be able to take districts and therefore quit from boredom or frustration. You are concerned new players won't be able to break through into PC.

This is partially true in our current situation as we are fighting over very few districts in proportion to the number of large corporations and players. The current environment is very volatile and if you don't have skill, money and numbers you're ruined.

Once we have access to more districts this will change as there will be more territory than corps are able to manage given the current player count. You will be able to own your very own back-water planet because large corps won't want the headache of defending that sh!thole.

Of course, this doesn't mean you will be safe. When some larger corp comes along and decides they want your planet for it's abundant natural resources of tears you will be more or less doomed but that's just how things go on here.

You clearly have a point here.

Actually, no, unfortunately, the size of the space available will make no difference at all. Well actually, it will make the larger corps even more powerful relative to the smaller corps.

If you want the amount of districts available to somehow help small corps, then you need to have a diminishing return on wealth from subsequent districts. This hasn't been implemented in Eve yet despite a lot of evidence that it would make nullsec more diverse and active.

Just adding districts isn't going to do anything except make the bigger corps bigger.
