Hi long time player but I’m a solo player and I had a idea for solo players if possible I would like to see solo players such as myself be able to hire captains to fly their own bought ships to do certain things such as [mining asteroid belts exploring and protection of Their Own Fleet] when in low sec to Null Sec and I think 20 ships total should be enough for one basic Fleet and when playing an alpha you can also use multiple accounts because it could also be easier that way for people that have a solo Corporation to earn isk to buy stuff that they need to buy for the corporation in game and each time you hire a captain on the market and put it into a ship cargo and right click on it there should be an option to hire the captain and different captains cost different amounts of isk and have certain abilities such as Ship Repair mining hauling Etc what do people think is that a good idea that CCP should do because I think so
Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game
You can solo if you like, but EVE is not an RTS.
Absolutely not.
2/10 post only because the stream of consciousness you vomited onto the forum didn’t use generative AI.
We should already have this along with walking inside stations.
Oh don’t worry after Fanfest there will be plenty of WIS posts again.
You can already multibox a fleet of 20 alts if you want to.
There is no way CCP will allow multiple account usage on Alpha, and neither should they. If you like EvE enough to want to play 20 alts then you should be willing to pay to support the server. Personally I think it’s very generous that CCP let you pay for game time with ingame currency, essentially directly exchanging your time for game time.
In short the first part of your idea is implemented and the second is not good business practice.
uninstall EvE op…and go play X4 foundations.
So there should, it’s not that hard to give to us what we want.
It’s locked content and we want to gain access for roleplay.
No, this is content you are willingly not participating in because you only want to play solo.
Well perhaps that’s because my audience has not earned it yet to roleplay with?
/side question
Had you ever looked at your contact list and said nope not today or even not anymore?
Issue free day to yourself and walk around a station!
No, I look at my contact list and think “Oh yay, friends!”
I’m sorry that you don’t have that beautiful, wonderful experience yourself.
I’m not the one with my knickers in a knot just because someone said walking in station would be a great idea.
You have tragically misunderstood what part of OP’s suggestions I was taking umbrage with.
No, we have our knickers in a knot about Captains Quarters but you definitely have yours in a knot about Captain mercenaries.
Oh! Yeah you nailed it. Could not care less about captain quarters, very much care about hiring npc mercenaries.
How about the little guys?
The little mermaids and mermen who work the factories we set out on a planet?
Do you Pi?
I don’t mind them for the same reason I don’t mind those Itty bitty little civilian shuttles in stations.
They aren’t flying capsuleer level vessels and have 0 impact on gameplay
Planet Industry has impact
Eg
if the fleet requires T 2 Destroyers to gank highsec miners.
Why do we not think outside of our capsules?
Oh I know, We Don’t Have Walking in Stations:
500 PLEX a month you can create another player and give it commands
Or you can become CEO/FC and your fleets/members will take commands from you to a large extent
