why should the playing field be level?
and 5 day old timmy should know better than to go roaming around delve if he didn’t want to get DD’d

@bucktooth you are part of brave.
Brave is a new player alliance.
A new player alliances objective is to help new players get started in EVE.

I am a part of a community to try an keep this game interesting. Brave has plenty of Vets too, just like any dubbed ‘new player alliance’.

I agree. Level playing field.

Newbies start with 10k SP and a Rookie ship. Nothing else. Just like the rest of us old farts.

The station bashing is a good point. Keep in mind though that 1.0-0.8 stays as it is now, and 0.4 and under have at least BCs (Oracle bashing for instance). So the primary effect would be on 0.7, 0.6 and 0.5 space. Plus I don’t really think station bashing is as big a part of the game as ship PvP (which is already a small part of the overall game).

I do get the idea that “the wide open sandbox is attractive” to certain people. The problem is, that niche of people is small, and getting smaller in EVE every year. The active player charts paint a pretty grim picture and even going F2P and running event after event to stimulate logins is barely stemming the bleeding.

I’m not wedded to this specific idea of limiting ship classes to certain areas so new players have a choice of engagement limits. On the other hand, venturing into low-sec and getting hit by a hunter pack of T3C’s or assault frigates doesn’t seem like such a great design choice either. This is just an example of something CCP could do to provide a less ridiculously unbalanced playing field for newer/intermediate players.

Some changes will drive players away, certainly. But staying ‘as is’ has already been driving players away for 8 years now. It’s time CCP took some risks and implemented fundamental design changes.

OMG socialism, sweet lord everyone run, be afraid, be VERY afraid!! :rofl:

…we got a Fox Zombie in our midst!

Vets leaving is actually really good for the in-game economy.

(We both know it’s really not possible to leave EVE for good)
