• • PLEASE, PLEASE adopt the WOW approch to PVP

  • When I played EVE, they called me a carebear. I liked to trade, mine, build for my corp. They got my creations blown up and I just made more. I enjoyed it. How is that being a carebear? I MADE PVP HAPPEN. Without me or people like me, PVP wouldn't be possible.

     

    PVP players often hate to admit it, but they need the PVE and Crafting type players. Most PVP players don't care though, and will drive decent players away. One of my friends was mining in a Hulk in .7 space (he came and joined a few of us to just mine and chat) and these two gankers showed up in cruisers during server lag and knocked him out. Sure, concord swept them, but it took 7 minutes for concord to get there. It's cowardly tactics like that that are making me look at all these PVP posts and hanging my head in shame. How can you all call yourselves true PVPers when all you do is abuse game mechanics and kill solo players in your huge pirate groups? "LULZ I AM SO LEET I KILLZ YOUR MINING SHIP LULZ"

    PVP without a reason isn't PVP, it's griefing. There is no challenge in killing newer players or miners, especially when you don't even give them a chance to pay their escape (like most pirates in EVE, who KoS and make off with shitty tier 1 gear and make little to no profit)

• • CoX to have optional in-game advertising.

  • I wish they'd drop the monthly fee in exchange for advertising, but heh, that'll never happen. I hope this money does infact go towards development costs though. At least if it doesn't, I can just turn the ads off.

• • Look at this planetside map from launch....

  • Caves could have been better utilized as a way to interrupt the typical lattice of bases. It sort of was used that way, but could have been better. Planetside truly died with BFRs, which removed much of the feel and thrill of the game. It turned into mechwarrior.

    Anyway, PS needs to go Free 2 Play to get the kind of population it needs now. A damn shame... I loved the game.

• • Who here would like to see a newer, better version of Planetside.

  • I would love to see a better version of Planetside: better graphics, better physics, more varied vehicles, MORE PLAYERS (!), etc.

    I'll pay the $14.95... just give me a game better than Planetside (which will be tough, despite the suckage of the new updates), and we've got a deal.

• • Avatars or just ships?

  • Though I personally couldn't care less about avatars, when I tried to get some of my IRL buddies to play EVE, they wouldn't, JUST BECAUSE there were no avatars. This is not a small problem. Many people feel this way.

    I hope they put avatars in so I can finally pick a game for the bunch of us to play. (They want me to play WoW... I just can't get into it)
