Time to win Eve on a few of my accounts, tbh don’t even log in hardly ever no more. Been playing since 2005 but think i’m done and nope it not just down to the upcoming changes it’s the last couple of years worth of shite. I will keep my main account for a few more months just in the hope things get better but don’t really hold out any hope.

? “Brawlers paradise” ?  
You really think that increasing low range damage will bring more people into fighting!?!?? 🤣

Little girls will still stay docked untill they are appsolutely sure that the fight will be done with no risk involved!!

Disable killboard API!!  
I think only then, some of us might\* come out of their cupboard.

We need MORE tank, not less. Most frig fights last for a minute or less, brawl ones have 20 seconds, and even bs fights last for less than 3 minutes. This doesn’t work. We need strategy and its difficult in a plex looking at someone warp in and heart beating hoping its not a faction frigate. Now glass cannon frig fights is going to last like 15 seconds and now people would stop fitting tank for sensor boosters. Eve is speeding up and I personally don’t like it.

Eve is a combination of PVE and PVP. We do need more PVP but do that by putting more people inside eve, not nerfing PVE. I have half the heart to say now the only thing that could complete the SOE EA is a vexor…

Ask the community what they can accept to earn money. The biggest asset of eve is the people posting 900 posts above this and whatever amount below this. Ask them. I say put in-game ads. I wish you didn’t but that is better than ruining the game economy.

Nah. Killboard is good strategy (better than most strategy in eve lock-orbit-shoot). I could locate someone with it, I can look at an alliance’s doctrine fits and know what I’m going agains. I can distinguish bait from not-bait. I can know whether this guy is good or not. (And I know this promotes carebear activity, so buff alts).

This brings up a good point that some overlook. Know who your fighting. I always chk the player out before engaging if I can.

You’re right. 30 seconds, sometimes more. (But as a solo PVPer that feels very fast, and I can barely think when that happens)

My main concerns:

1. I don’t think small close range ammo needs this buff, some brawling frigs/dessies and the t2/t3/pirate variants are already very strong.
2. Hauling my crap in high sec is going to be an even more tedious chore because suicide gankers get a stealth buff so I’ll need to further limit how much i carry meaning more trips, and less time for doing things i actually enjoy.
3. I don’t fly caps so I don’t know exactly how hard these changes hit them but i’d like to fly them one day and i want them to be worth skilling into when i get there. We need the big aspirational ships in the game, it gives us something to work towards.

I think you will find a mass exodus of players your new CEO seems intent on killing the game with the direction you are heading.

I’ve already unsubscribed 2 alts I think my main will follow soon…

If players are willing to leave over CCP’s steps to fix the major problems of the game… then leave? You’re not the type of players the CCP or the community wants anyway.

A bunch of hype how this cools down the economy. It’s main function is to get you to buy more Plex, spend more real dollars, everything is a cloying ploy.
