It’s not about ISK, and I guarantee you a new player can’t do that.

A cookie. While I applaud your effort, you would be better off figuring out a way to get this into the npe. A new player arena is hardly a new idea. It wasn’t a good one then and it’s still not.

It’s not, because “surviving more than 3 seconds” implies effectiveness and longevity in a fight. “Defending” can include warping away and avoiding, which doesn’t involve fighting.

My question was “how”. Not “what” or “how much”.

Do you like playing games where you have no chance to win? Most people do not.

But that’s what people have explained to you. Newbies do have a chance to win. There are things they can do, such as bringing friends. When this was pointed out to you, you “_specified_” solo PvP…

I wouldn’t class avoiding as PVP, I would class avoiding as avoiding PVP.

Most people don’t expect to win at 1st when they start playing a new game.

Yes well done. Obviously that means we can never try to improve the experience for new players.

What do you consider player **versus** player then? Because avoiding someone who is hunting you is, in fact, one player vs another. Are you talking about **combat** , or PvP?

PVP is combat. If you fly into a system and I dock up, how the hell is that PVP.
