PCU has been rising. You have a weird definition of dying.

It’s a PvP game, PvP is not an “other approach” like in Care Bear MMOS.

If anyone cares about being called a carebear then more fool them.

Anyway we all live in our own fantasy worlds, based on our own perspectives.

Are you saying that player kills are also counted as NPC kills? Or that PvP players can do a little PvE and not be hurt by that? If latter, PvE players can do a little PvP (in Corvettes) as well.

No the NPC one does not serve “both communities”. It serves people that kill NPCs. It is unfairly balanced to give PVErs an advantage that PVPers don’t get.

I don’t do the NPC skilling spree because I have no inclination whatsoever to kill NPC rats. I am here to kill other players. (It has taken me 6 years to go from -10 to -3 sec status just from other fleet members killing gate rats on roams) In fact every time CCP sends me a survey about the spree I comment that they need PVP related events for this PVP related game. If they are going to have events give SP for PVE kills they needed to have some that give it for PVP kills as well.

So again, thank you CCP for adding similar rewards for PVPers.

Know how to handle this if all you do is PvE and you don’t have alts?

“Hey [corpmate], do you mind if I kill you for that SP reward, and then you can kill me back?”

Easy. It’s silly that people find the very idea of shooting another player’s ship such a horrible thing.

I’m sure they didn’t mean for it to be taken advantage of like that.

But then, I don’t have any corp. mates and I don’t think self-destruct counts.

At which point you are no longer playing an MMO, you are playing a single player version of EVE…

It doesn’t have to be a corpmate, it could similarly be a friend you know in Eve. I know there’s no wrong way to play Eve as it’s a sandbox, but if someone chooses to play the game completely seperate from the other people that play it, to the best of their ability, then I really think they’re doing themselves a disservice by not taking advantage of the MMO part of the game.

I’ve played solo for years now in multiple MMOs, as I don’t use voice software even joining a player corp. results in being left out of the loop. Hence you might as well be solo.

As far as my characters are concerned I’m sure you are right.

As far as the thousands of pounds I’ve spent on this game, I’m sure you make up for that.
