One small corp has proto stomped, used overpowered weapons, cheap exploit tactics and spawned killed it to death. One corp of about 10 guys. How does that make you feel CPP? A market of a billion people, destroyed by a handful. Slow clap fellas.
After all this time, the server is dead as *****. All this is because CCP has completely failed to make a game for Playstation users. Instead they made a dudebros game for the Eve antisocial type who do anything to win "spying and sabotage is so meta crowd." And they pushed out the playstation FPS players. The keyboard is the first clue.
Why is PC messed up? That crowd. Why are game numbers down? That crowd. "Can I have your stuff?" Why didn't they fix AFK farming? That crowd. Why exploiters aren't banned? That crowd. Why no SP reset on game launch day? That crowd.
What do I think has gone wring? Very simple. They listened to that crowd.
The problems with PC are the same issues as pub stomping, flavour of the week weapons use and MCC AFK farming. A spoiled brat self entitled anti-social EVE player playerbase that CCP doesn't have the balls to smack down for fear of reprisals in EVE.
MCC AFK farmers should have been banned and or stripped of SP starting from day 1. Proper matchmaking via gear restriction tiers implemented so K/D farmers had to fight for it. On 5/14 and end of beta testing all SP should have been reset. Anyone caught using exploits banned.
Why didn't this happen?
Because there wouldn't have been any o'time Eve players left. Hilarious, because instead you would have had your market of dudebros playing their FPS... you know... that MASSIVE market you were trying to break into. Whoops |

Some people AFK in the MCC because they really haven't got a choice due to the other team being pubstomped in battles (Mostly public) making the game seem unfair, but hopefully this changes with the upcoming changes to CalLogi and Flaylock.
But I agree CCP needs to change this game to attract the players back. |

IDK, I think that CCP is starting to head in the right direction.
My fear though is that they will listen to the wrong people. I agree somewhat with what you are saying, though I do not feel that all of the blame can be placed at the feet of Eve players.
There are asshats on both sides of the argument and those are the ones I've seen CCP listening to the most in the past. Therein lies the problem.
The worst elements of FPS gamers here only want this to be some vehicle for their fantasy that they are real athletes. This causes them to do things like protostomp and stroke their egos while berating and belittling everyone who isn't "on their level" (read: plays the game for fun rather than to pretend that they are athletes). This is bad overall for the game.
The worst elements of Eve players here want to see it die at any cost. They'll be shitheads and asshats just because they can and do all in their power to kill Dust before the journey has really begun because they see it as taking resources away from Important Internet Spaceships.
Overall I agree with the basic sentiment of your post, though I feel you are pointing the finger at only a misguided segment of the problem. |

And how would they have known who the afk'ers are? How would they have separated them from the people who went afk for a legitimate reason? Putting gear restrictions in may have been problematic, there are very good arguments against it, and various concerns about the effect it would have. Don't think that just because these things might have happened that the game would be better. For all the rage in this post there is very little sense. |

Totally agree OP, but never played on asia servers, however taking the bigger picture into account, people of that ilk will be the sole reason DUST never breaks through. |

I guess the game having no new content for so long, or the fact that the game still feels like I'm wading through mud has nothing to do with people leaving?
AFK'ers have no effect on people leaving, in fact some people are still on DUST BECAUSE they can still AFK.
Matchmaking issues has been brought up since early Chromosome. CCP ignored the feedback or was busy taking vacations... so w/e at this point. Nullabor is working on a matchmaking system now, but it's kinda closing the barn door when the horse has already escaped.
How are people exploiting or cheating? You made no example.
SP reset? loooool... if that happened there would be FAR less people playing this game.
No I'm not a lolEVE player. I just wanna shoot people, and when that doesn't feel fun anymore, people will leave. |

I agree with op entirely. The evetards have pushed this game into what it was intended to be. A proto-pub-stomp-fest. So sub-par players can compete with fps from the playstation nation. Dedicated no lifers (eve players) who can proto stomp because they have the time to afk and cap on a weekly basis on multiple accounts. We psn players have played many many shooters, this is all evetards got, so they stick to their guns. Ps4 and planetside cant come any quicker for me.
More time envested the easier mode it becomes. |

No-lifers dominate planetside 2 as well. In a game with a leveling system in place, the power will always reside in the hands of the players who have the most time to kill. What can you do? |

Too many responses came in for me to reply to them all but since you disagree and ask a specific question.
First AFK farming is an exploit. SP = Skill, free skills for those who abuse a mechanic, it is cheating. Shooting through MCC walls and shields, dropping R/Es into the hidden pocket on objectives. Shooting through known hollow walls and hills. All this stuff was happening during BETA. They were supposed to be logged and reported, instead the BETA crowd took full advantage. Multiple accounts for passive SP is also an issue, but standard procedure in EVE as I hear.
You defend AFKing for free ISK and SP. This alone most people consider an exploit. It was reported as an exploit, but instead of being fixed.......... became standard procedure for people the game simply does not need to succeed. We'd be better off without them. |

That crowd. "Can I have your stuff?" If "Can I have your stuff" and "HTFU" keeps makes people leave, I don't understand how all the racist, homophobic chatter in other shooters hasn't made them fold yet.Why didn't they fix AFK farming? That crowd. AFK farming is doable by anyone, and helps anyone who does it. I don't know how it could be attributed to "that crowd" only.Why exploiters aren't banned? That crowd. I don't think it's "that crowd" so much as CCP being slow to act. Exploits in EVE aren't really allowed, either, at least not in the boosting sense. Other things, like "doomcats," are seen as "clever use" and then CCP usually fixes the mechanics.Why no SP reset on game launch day? That crowd. When the beta went from closed to open, everyone was reset. However, when it went from open beta to ";aunch" (launchbeta, really, as it's still missing basic content), there was no reset because it was an open beta. Anyone could have joined, you didn't need special privileges, there were no restrictions. Joining on launch day and insisting that open beta sp be reset is akin to joining now and insisting everyone's sp be reset, because there was nothing game-side wise keeping you out. I even remember seeing ads for the open beta on the PSN. |

CCP never said, nor the CPM, that AFK is an exploit. So your little explanation of why it is, is null and void.
It's a game mechanic. You get SP for time spent in game. I thought EVE is all about HTFU and "adapt or die"... seems people are adapting pretty well to a mechanic in game
lol you wanted people to get banned in Beta? Are you kidding me? That's what a beta is for! For testing and finding out these glitches. |

Thats the perfect example, some one who found an exploit and then proceeded to abuse it to the detriment of the game/community.

I've never cheated in a game, EVER. Not a matter of "principle", but i play to play. I don't boost.
I have AFK farmed though, and only cuz CCP has not said a word about it being a cheat or exploit. There's NO SP POOL so if you miss a week of SP, you don't have a chance of getting it back.
Since I don't really care anymore, and have enough SP for my class, I don't even AFK anymore. CCP can't ban people for something that's not against the rules...
Plus people spent money on boosters. If someone gets their SP reset, or banned for no reason, CCP has to refund them their money. And by no reason I mean, CCP has never said it's against the rules.
You can say it's exploiting if you want. Till I hear otherwise, you're wrong.

The EULA and other TOS pretty much let CCP ban players for whatever they want. A "reserve the right to refuse service" sort of thing. It's not normally abused by developers for PR reasons, but they are not going to refund anything regardless of why they banned a player. |

The problems with PC are the same issues as pub stomping, flavour of the week weapons use and MCC AFK farming. A spoiled brat self entitled anti-social EVE player playerbase that CCP doesn't have the balls to smack down for fear of reprisals in EVE.
MCC AFK farmers should have been banned and or stripped of SP starting from day 1. Proper matchmaking via gear restriction tiers implemented so K/D farmers had to fight for it. On 5/14 and end of beta testing all SP should have been reset. Anyone caught using exploits banned.

You can change your server region now. I used to have the same problem with Oceania servers, but luckily CCP closed them. Dust still has the most awesome international net code, but pick a region that suits your play style.

9 million SP, that's ~25 weeks if you cap every week (~17 with active+passive booster), why would any new player want to be proto-stomped for that long before they could compete?
Maybe I don't understand what it meant in EvE, I do understand that the current PRO >>> ADV >> STD > MIL model doesn't work anyone who isn't a proto-stomper. |

People download a game that is largely advertised as an EVE spinoff yet are totally shocked once they find out that it actually is an EVE spinoff.
And i call bs on the implied assumption that Playstation users are somehow a uniform mass of equal minded people.

We psn players have played many many shooters, this is all evetards got, so they stick to their guns. Ps4 and planetside cant come any quicker for me.
More time envested the easier mode it becomes.
Absolute nonsense, the average eve player i've met in dust is fairly terrible at it, blaming them for proto pub stomping is pretty far fetched, most of the really good players have no background in eve and in fact most of the really good groups i've seen have next to no eve side assets.
If you have to point a finger at any game for bringing in squads of good players that like to massacre bad players you should point your finger at the MAG refugees, which is just as re-tarded as blaming eve players for it. |

Because there wouldn't have been any o'time Eve players left. Hilarious, because instead you would have had your market of dudebros playing their FPS... you know... that MASSIVE market you were trying to break into. Whoops
It is rather obvious you know little to nothing about Eve or Eve Players. Better to be prudent and silent, but hey I suppose that's why your father plays Eve and you play Dust 514, eh?

I didn't know dropships used to get mcru WP. I thought it was stupid that they didn't. No reward for doing what it's supposed to do.
For repairing infantry? I dunno, to stop awesome logi's from feeling too good about themselves. "Working your ass off?

It's not like there aren't measures in place to curb exploiting on it (apart from the limit obviously).

This is pretty much case in point. You hide your shame on a different server.
Thanks to people like you, the choice for someone actually playing are thus. (Naturally there are exceptions)
Skirmish or Domination. Get redlined and whupped because half your team is AFKing, or vice versa. Or. Equal AFKers on either side and a fair 8 vs 8 match, which the maps are too big for and gameplay suffers. All the while a quiet voice in the back of your mind and highlighted on the map.. CCP lets these douches do this.
Ambush / OMS A small group proto stomping with flavour of the week weapons on a quiet no contest server. And watching your team quit "___ has left the battle"
The real question that people can argue all they want but CCP has the real numbers for, is are these people quitting that match, or the game outright? Is it the same people pushing others out over and over with multiple accounts?
My whole point... (with an example of one corp and one server) is there are a number of problems created by a select few that CCP has failed to address. I've played endlessly for months, read the forums and have taken my guess at who the people are, and why CCP has leaned over and let their work and high hopes get reamed. My message was never to the players, but to CCP itself to HTFU. |

Have to say Beld, you sure know how to hold a grudge.
Because we didn't run the corp your way, and recruit only 'elite' players. We give newer players a chance... even give the more dedicated ones shots at PC. We're working long term, not short term. Look at all the so-called 'elite' corps that have fallen by the wayside... TSOLE is still here, and still growing because we're willing to give people a shot.
The last thing this game needs is more closed minded elitists seeking to build the 'dream team' and exclude the new players who may well be very good at higher levels, or with guidance.
Don't get me wrong, members of so-called elite corps are generally good blokes, but building a team on the premise that it's built to win, and only win, means that IF you start to lose, the team cohesion begins to break apart.

There is a certain psychological set that sees itself as only maintaining dominance by the grace of whatever advantage they can maintain over other people.
This type of person will proactively seek to subvert any movement towards parity, whether possible, real or imagined.
It happens all around us, from the "old boys club" of committee's and boardrooms, to the psychological and verbal attacks on sports fields. You see it in advertising, when a company makes silly claims instead of relying on their product or serviceto sell itself.
Because if "I" can get away with making your concerns appear trivial (HTFU), then I can demand that you play by my rules (adapt or die). And when "I" think you might be ready to give up, I'll advertise my dominance by proclaiming myself the victor (can i has your stuff?). In the end "I" am just playing the game the way that I see it, but if you fall into the trap and also think that the game can only be played this way, then you also become a part of the issue ... where a catchphrase like "Welcome to New Eden" takes on a meaning and an importance over and above its simple word form, and instead becomes a mantra... at that point, you cannot fault the players that are trying to drive away the new blood for fear of a loss in power or prestige, because quite honestly... you've allowed them to mindKITTEN you.
also, might add that if you believe what you are saying about EvE players and DUST, ... ... ... mind-KITTENED

well... in a game where skill and progression are supposed to matter, it's kinda hard to nerf those two things just to please a typical 'psn FPS player'. But yeah CCP created an atmosphere where skilling into grossly OP weapons and pub stomping grew into a sport. Things could be much better if the academy was better built to shelter beginners.

First AFK farming is an exploit. SP = Skill, free skills for those who abuse a mechanic, it is cheating. Shooting through MCC walls and shields, dropping R/Es into the hidden pocket on objectives. Shooting through known hollow walls and hills. All this stuff was happening during BETA. They were supposed to be logged and reported, instead the BETA crowd took full advantage. Multiple accounts for passive SP is also an issue, but standard procedure in EVE as I hear.
You defend AFKing for free ISK and SP. This alone most people consider an exploit. It was reported as an exploit, but instead of being fixed.......... became standard procedure for people the game simply does not need to succeed. We'd be better off without them. CCP never said, nor the CPM, that AFK is an exploit. So your little explanation of why it is, is null and void. It's a game mechanic. You get SP for time spent in game. I thought EVE is all about HTFU and "adapt or die"... seems people are adapting pretty well to a mechanic in game lol you wanted people to get banned in Beta? Are you kidding me? That's what a beta is for! For testing and finding out these glitches. I'm not sure how to respond to this, you missed the point entirely. I suspect your fear is CCP will sit up and take notice of just how accurate these complaints are.. and you're guilty as charged. I could be wrong. I've never cheated in a game, EVER. Not a matter of "principle", but i play to play. I don't boost. I have AFK farmed though, and only cuz CCP has not said a word about it being a cheat or exploit. There's NO SP POOL so if you miss a week of SP, you don't have a chance of getting it back. Since I don't really care anymore, and have enough SP for my class, I don't even AFK anymore. CCP can't ban people for something that's not against the rules... Plus people spent money on boosters. If someone gets their SP reset, or banned for no reason, CCP has to refund them their money. And by no reason I mean, CCP has never said it's against the rules. You can say it's exploiting if you want. Till I hear otherwise, you're wrong. CCP are looking into how to stop the MCC camping |

AFK'ers have no effect on people leaving, in fact some people are still on DUST BECAUSE they can still AFK.
Matchmaking issues has been brought up since early Chromosome. CCP ignored the feedback or was busy taking vacations... so w/e at this point. Nullabor is working on a matchmaking system now, but it's kinda closing the barn door when the horse has already escaped.
How are people exploiting or cheating? You made no example.
SP reset? loooool... if that happened there would be FAR less people playing this game.
No I'm not a lolEVE player. I just wanna shoot people, and when that doesn't feel fun anymore, people will leave. I have to disagree with you here Lance. While it's true that some peeps are still in the game because they can AFK, it's also true that AFK teammates are a contributing factor to poor new player experience.
I don't blame the AFKers though, i blame CCP's pathologically destructive passive in-match skillpoint mechanic. Nothing will improve until it is gone and replaced with something that rewards only effort on the battlefield. |

your ignorance and bigotry are showing sir. I don't disagree with most of your post but this is more then just an EVE player problem I've heard and seen the same **** from every one.
you are only limiting the reach of, frankly, your very relevant post, by being an ignorant biggot. CCP will be less likely to listen, abusers of every type will use this to drive public opinion against you, so you seem like a fringe nut job.
oh despite what you hear EVE is by far the MOST social MMO out there, trust me you don't play eve unless you like dealing with people. |

This is a **** excuse leave the match or try to do some thing in a free fit. There is no good reason to not try to fight out of the red line as long as you are in match NONE!! |

Yeah I think you've got far more in common with a cult than a community, one thing i've noticed despite a lot of TSOLE being good fellas, they treat everyone that has the gaul to leave the cult like lepers or traitors, you in particular like to put on this big show of being the reasonable speech giving dear leader, and yet I heard you completely flipped your lid when bloodoil left to join internal error.
I'd congratulate you on keeping TSOLE together this long, but I think your success has more to do with the lack of alternatives than actual good leadership.
I'll take the cult thing as a compliment. Cult's are born to ideals, and though some are born to people as well.. I don't think I personally am that popular. TSOLE is built around the idea of making newer players welcomed to our community. Bettering their DUST 514 experience, and allowing as many people to experience the game as much as possible.
Yes, I flipped my lid a bit when bloodoil left. I wont deny it. But it's not that he left that caused me concern, it's that he left the way he did. Similar in fashion to multiple others. I let how they left be known to the membership, and they decide how to treat them. I don't keep the reasons they left, or their communications (or mine) secret. The same could be said of yourself leaving, or a few others I would mention.
As to the lack of alternatives, there are new Australian and New Zealand Corporations opening up even as I speak, and even the Americans and Europeans in the corp aren't inclined to leave en masse, despite our timezones being less than ideal. And failing that, there is always the option of creating your own corporation. So lack of alternatives fails to be a compelling argument for TSOLE's success.
Personally, I put TSOLE's success firmly at the feet of it's entire membership. Officers, Noncoms, Soldiers, and even new recruits. In most cases, they conduct themselves well, don't flame, forum troll (much), or get overly aggressive against any people. People from other corps respect us, and it's not due solely to the leadership, its the membership that presents the true face of a corp.
TSOLE was built around the ideal that we make DUST better, give new guys a chance, and perseverance. None of which we have disappointed on, and in my members I couldn't be prouder.
You say I like to make speeches, well I do. I have a lot to say about my guys, who can lose 17 districts over the course of a week due to technical difficulties in PC, and STILL stay together. Who can go from the heights, to the depths, and still laugh about it. Have a once sizeable corp (not so much any more) wallet stolen, and guys kicked... and still reform and push on stronger.
If we present a united front, it's because in most respects, we have the same visions. I don't 'gag order' my guys and I encourage ones who have issues with any member of the leadership to come forward. Loyalty does not a cult make. Loyalty is the product of good friends, teams, and an open attitude. |

After all this time, the server is dead as *****. All this is because CCP has completely failed to make a game for Playstation users. Instead they made a dudebros game for the Eve antisocial type who do anything to win "spying and sabotage is so meta crowd." And they pushed out the playstation FPS players. The keyboard is the first clue.
Why is PC messed up? That crowd. Why are game numbers down? That crowd. "Can I have your stuff?" Why didn't they fix AFK farming? That crowd. Why exploiters aren't banned? That crowd. Why no SP reset on game launch day? That crowd.
What do I think has gone wrong? Very simple. They listened to that crowd.
The problems with PC are the same issues as pub stomping, flavour of the week weapons use and MCC AFK farming. A spoiled brat self entitled anti-social EVE player playerbase that CCP doesn't have the balls to smack down for fear of reprisals in EVE.
MCC AFK farmers should have been banned and or stripped of SP starting from day 1. Proper matchmaking via gear restriction tiers implemented so K/D farmers had to fight for it. On 5/14 and end of beta testing all SP should have been reset. Anyone caught using exploits banned.
Why didn't this happen?
Because there wouldn't have been any o'time Eve players left. Hilarious, because instead you would have had your market of dudebros playing their FPS... you know... that MASSIVE market you were trying to break into. Whoops Since I'm nice, I'll breakdown your whining into some key points to illustrate your idiocy so it's apparent to anyone as willfully ignorant as you: 1. It's CCP. Read it with me C. C. P. Not CPP.
2. Market of a billion people? Did you pull that number out of your ass or do you have any statistical evidence to show? And no, quoting a random number on some webpage is not 'proof'
3. Protostomp? Exploiting tactics? Using OP weapons? Can you describe exactly what happened or are you just going to throw out random accusations like that and claim that it 'killed the market'?
4. CCP made a game, it's a PS3 exclusive. And you say it's not made for PS3 users? The incidental keyboard and mouse support means a greater audience and superior controls. In case you didn't know, the 'anti-social' EVE players generally do not tend to exhibit childish behaviour like your ranting, and most rants similar to such as your on the EVE forums tend to come from the instant gratification crowd (i.e. console kiddies and other associated stereotypes).
5. Blaming 'that crowd' for everything in the game? No reasoning behind it? Well done, old chap! You know why we have cancers and all sorts of incurable diseases these days? Because of you. You know why millions of children go hungry everyday? Because of you. You know the economic crisis in 2008-2009? Yep, that was because of you too. In fact, using your method of argument, we can all attribute every single problem the world faces to dipshits like you.
6. "A spoiled brat self entitled anti-social EVE player playerbase that CCP doesn't have the balls to smack down for fear of reprisals in EVE." says the person with the self-entitled, self righteousness issues typing out extremely anti-social threads on the forums. IRONY MUCH SON?
7. Everything else, is so much fail on your parents part for giving birth to you and failing to educate you in realities of the modern world, that I will not deign to address them, since my IQ has dropped by about 100 points trying to respond at your level.
To paraphrase someone I read on the forums, Take a bowl of cement mix with cereal, add some milk to it and eat it. Maybe you'll harden the **** up then. |

We psn players have played many many shooters, this is all evetards got, so they stick to their guns. Ps4 and planetside cant come any quicker for me.
More time envested the easier mode it becomes. GB2PS2 oh wait you don't have the PS4 yet not can you afford a PC since your mommy told you, "Son, you get a PS3 or a PC, which one do you want?" and you went with PS3.
EVE players stomping? I thought you said they were bad at FPS games? Make up your mind.
So it's only the EVE players with no life that can grind out SP all day, and all PS3 only players are completely not-geeks who drive ferraris to the grocery store and have million dollar a year jobs, or they don't have to work cos they're cool like that.
RIGHT????? RIGHT??????????????????
Since you 'PSN players' have some many shooters, go play them then. Why do you come here to ***** about how life is so unfair for you? |

While many of your points are things CCP really should have addressed, you really can't blame the fact they haven't been on any of the playerbase. All of these problems were reported at least 6 months ago and have been reported and complained about repeatedly ever since. I've never seen anyone seriously trying to say CCP shouldn't fix there issues, so saying they've been listening to some select crowd that wants to keep all the bad stuff is just foolish. |

no offense to the Asian servers
but fk them
Ive been stomped by Nyain Chan PLENTY of times
i think its fair we do the same to them
(but in all honesty i go there in friken std gear and still own the match using a scout suit swam launcher and scrambler pistol....)
It's the down side of having a single server for all the players but it is also what will bring this game to glory
people will quit saying how terrible the game is people will review it listening to vets of the game
the game will get solid scores people will think (oh this game is hard ?)
when at the end of the day the difference between killing a proto suit and a mlt suit is about 5 shots of the ar ~ |

Thought I would reply in this stupid thread because the op doesn't know how to make a thread.
If you are going to title it "asian servers" then talk about the server not the game as a whole. Unless of course you are actually that stupid to think CCP is listening to 1 corp in asia? (I hope you do because that would make this thread even worse)
after all the idiots saying "IRC has the influence" then "the CPM has the influence" you are now trying to make it out like a low count asian server has influence?
when you go into details about your reasoning, you don't even make sense "that crowd"? that's a bit of a sweeping statement if I've seen one.
Also why the hell would CCP change the game to favour people who don't have enough SP to get a proto suit? That's stupid. There are people in the game now with 20 million SP, CCP have given the noobies a closed game playlist (the noob playlist) so they are hidden from the more experienced yet we have you QQ'ing crap threads like this.
Get over yourself, are you trying to rally troops for a cause? (that movie) Independence day had a better speech than this. |

While it's true that some peeps are still in the game because they can AFK, it's also true that AFK teammates are a contributing factor to poor new player experience. I don't blame the AFKers though, i blame CCP's pathologically destructive passive in-match skillpoint mechanic. Nothing will improve until it is gone and replaced with something that rewards only effort on the battlefield.
They afk for the active SP not the passive. Active SP is the problem because it isn't active if we get it for showing up and doing nothing. Passive SP is not the problem, if passive sp is what they want then all they have to do is not log on. They want free active SP from being in battle. |

Clever, but you missed the mark. The damage control need to be done by CCP, I've suggested how to do that and I stand by my statements. Naturally I assumed I'd be riling up a large group of people. Not a group that I care to be on good terms with though at any rate,, win win.

I play everyday as well, if servers were healthy they wouldn't have merged ambush and OMS. I stay away from skirmish and domination because of the AFKers. True, I say one small corp, 10 guys or so, but exactly how many alt toons do these guys have? Some corps I never see on at the same time, ever. I know other servers have issue too, but singled out the Asian server because it is the one I was stuck on for all of open BETA, the one I know best, the one where.... see OP |

Don't lump all EVE players into one group.
I don't care if this game takes resources from EVE, EVE has grown stale for so many of us. Many people are just farming with multiple accounts or are on standby while playing another game. This games success has the potential of making EVE more appealing to more people, and making interacting in New Eden a much broader experience. I come from EVE, though for months I was playing this game a lot more. I still throw my cash at this game to buy pointless BPOs because I so badly want this game to succeed and I'll pay for it to happen.
Being someone who bought a PS3 just to play this game, I'm not ready to watch it fall, New Eden needs this more than it realizes. |

Being someone who bought a PS3 just to play this game, I'm not ready to watch it fall, New Eden needs this more than it realizes.
I want this game to succeed more than most for my own reasons. I spent 320 million ISK and was ready so that I could pounce on 4 districts so that smaller corps could band together and actually play some rounds of PC. I made videos of exploits upon request to illustrate something that really needed fixing, made forum posts with map coords when I found game and map glitches, taught endless people how to setup their mics and about the overly complex skill point system, thought up game mode and given feedback and suggestions and etc etc etc. All the while I've watched and read posts by the devs and specific people high fiving each other over ideas that push away the intended crowd the game was conceived for... read that as not EVE players.
Let me put it another way.
Imagine it not as a video game, but a beer hockey league. People play for the fun of it, not for money or fame (because there is none) but because they like the game, a good challenge and social teamplay. 16 or 17 guys are on a team, and 3 of them decide that the ice isn't up to their standards, so instead of playing their position during the game they skate around in circles to practice their skating ability. When asked why they are ruining the game, the reply is that the ice isn't up to snuff and this is the only way to practice for next season when the ice is better. For some reason the referee is completely blind to the offsides so he rest of the guys bring their complaints to the coach who replies, but if we kick them off the team, we'll be shorthanded.
For **** sakes.
Should we get into the mentality of those who spy and sabotage and cheat a sports beer league? It is all about anti-social behaviour, and those who would allow something like to continue fall under the same category. Anti social for their inability to understand the complaints. Time and again this has been stated by EVE players and CCP itself that this is legit stuff in "New Eden" And this is what I've gone by when I put the onus on them.
This analogy can be used for stacked teams, better equipment etc. It should never be allowed or encouraged. The refs, the coaches, the GMs and those running the league all need a swift kick in the behind if they don't want the whole thing to collapse. There are people like this everywhere, it is their job to make the rules and enforce them so this doesn't happen, and kick the people out who ruin it for the rest of us.
The real players are quitting while some skate in circles. I have two last ditch efforts. One is this rude as hell OP forum post, the other a game mode suggestion that I'd play that would be very difficult for people to ruin.
