Then again, Mina, considering the sort of sick clowns that people this forum, I wouldn’t be surprised there’s worse in-game.

And it’s not just CONCORD that’s lame, all the empires are made lame by the devs to accommodate earnings.
Here we have those vast thousand-year militaristic empires who have harnessed unbelievable technologies, have incredible space vessels with astounding speed and amazing power and are supposed to be in a state of defacto war or all out war but they can’t deal with brainless pirates, engage in no form of warlike operations on their rivals and let themselves be lured away from scenes of crime and piracy in the same solar system.
And that’s the year, what, 70-something thousand years in the future? Did all of their IQ drop sharply during that time or maybe they just don’t give a poop about the space they’re supposed to control?
All very unlikely.

You can be your own CONCORD. This is an MMO, and CCP wants you to interact with other players. The NPCs are just for flavor.
I don’t give a poop what CCP wants me to do. I would pay them to play the game, not order me around. I’m not one of CCP’s serfs.
The day they pay me would be the day they can tell me what to do on my leisure time.

That’s what we’ll see.
Well I’m also an unemployed loser virgin incel living in their mother’s basement (like all the other PvP video game PvP griefers), but that kind of seems minor compared to all the old-lady-rapin’, puppy-kickin’ stuff, so I didn’t mention it.

I said it before. I don’t believe you.
It is unlikely but it’s just a vehicle for profits. Not supposed to think about it that deeply or logically.
What I would love to see in EVE is the ability to join with NPC fleets a few times out of the year, maybe like Events, and be lead against another faction NPC/players fleet in enemy space and fight alongside players and NPCs.
At least it would show that the empires are at war and we, as Capsuleers, can join with empire forces.
The way I understand it is now is, it’s just players fleets vs players fleets for control of a system. While it’s ok, it doesn’t seem like the empires are involved, it’s just players trying to destroy/take what other players have. I mean that’s ok because corporations are rivals but the empires interests are left in the dust. Some powerful empires…

It exists, I’ve been in fleets shooting some NPC titans in a fleet for some lore event. Is that what you’re looking for? (To be honest, I didn’t really follow it all, was there just because of the commotion.)
I prefer player fleets against player fleets, where you have to fight real adversaries that aren’t easily beaten once you know their scripts. Enemies that can surprise you are surprisingly much more fun.
If the fleet you were in comprised of NPC and players, yes. If it was only players in the fleet you were in, no.
That’s the hiccup isn’t it.
I see your point.
Technically NPCs cannot join fleets. We did have a few NPC ships on the side of ‘our fleet’, does that count?
What they’re looking for already exists in Pochven. There are literally multi-directional battles happening there all the time. But they don’t want to go to Pochven. It’s scary sociopath ganker-infested pseudo-null-sec full of griefer scumbags.
Well, actually, no, it’s completely desolate. I was there last night, and there wasn’t a soul around, except for a Sunesis that briefly appeared on d-scan for a few seconds.
I think what they’re really looking for is PvE content that has the appearance of PvP content, but that doesn’t actually require them to risk anything or lose their ships. Kind of a safari experience where they get to feel like badasses without being exposed to any actual danger.
No but it would be cool for players to be able to join NPC fleets.
Yes.
