EVE Online - AT friendly corp

I think this would be a very different game, and I doubt it would ever be done. The devs wanted a game where violence could happen virtually anywhere at any time. If they did do such a thing to EVE, I'm guessing people would quit in droves. :-(

EVE Online - AT friendly corp

Oh, and since this is a corp recruitment thread, I may as well plug one of mine. One of my characters is CEO of a more carebearish corp, currently with 6 members who all are friends in meatspace. We're looking to expand so that we can help a friend's corporation police a wormhole they've been...

EVE Online - AT friendly corp

Nope, not assuming that at all. A properly fit combat frig should be able to wax a retriever long before the retriever pilot can hope to pop the frigate, drones skills or no. The thing has no fitting options to speak of. I'd wager 100mil isk that I could pop any mining viable retriever you...

@ Kadarin - Wow, that's some serious can-flipper fail. Any high-sec griefer who loses a frig to a retriever needs to give up.

EVE!

No idea why you would have been shot at with a negative faction standing higher than -5.0. That shouldn't happen. You only lose standing with a faction by destroying their ships, so running missions for Gallente shouldn't affect your Amarr standings unless you take missions that require you...

EVE!

You don't have to really worry about negative empire standings until they reach -5.0. My Gallente standings are attrocious at -4.8, and I have no trouble at all going through Gallente space to grief mission runners. Since you only have 2 million skill points, I just don't see how it's...

IS DRM Strangling PC Gaming?

With all due respect, I don't really see people claiming that DRM destroys their computers and makes them useless. I'm certainly not claiming that either. By strangling PC gaming, I meant is DRM unfairly biased against PC gaming, and are industry practices concerning copyright pushing people...

I hope they'll both be kind and gentle. After all, I am curious to hear their responses to the questions. Given what I've already read from them, I think I know what they'll say. /me cautiously unzips flamesuit...

IS DRM Strangling PC Gaming?

Then why the contraversy whenever DRM comes up in a forum thread? Can I take off the asbestos underwear now? It's kind of itchy... :-) You don't think about DRM at all when considering a PC game purchase?

IS DRM Strangling PC Gaming?

Before key community members come in and wrap me with the Jolly Roger for even asking the questions, I have to say I'm sincerely curious. Is DRM a deterrent to gaming purchases? What do people consider to be fair DRM practices? Where's the line? Like I said in the blog, I'm not against DRM as...

IS DRM Strangling PC Gaming?

I recently wrote a blog about how DRM was placing artificial limits on the PC as a gaming platform. There's a lot of gamers here, and I thought this might be a good place to pose a couple of questions. 1. Game publishers notoriously marginalize complaints against their DRM practices. How...
