I'll also note that playing with goons is super fun because with us you can play however the hell you want. We have the power, numbers and clout to make sure that no matter your desire, if the game code allows it, you can do it. Do you want to be one of the line infantry, shield-locked in formation, following orders from your commander and shattering enemies with your fellow legionnaires? You can do that. Do you want to be a covert operator, sneaking around behind enemy lines and striking at targets of opportunity, leaving naught but wrecks and tears in your wake? You can do that. (join topgoon  )Do you want to be a market baron, never firing a shot yet fueling the war effort all the same while making piles of  -gold? You can do that.Do you just want to gently caress about, chatting in jabber/talking on mumble with chill people while smoking/drinking/drugging yourself into catatonia? You can do that. EVE is a good game, not because of the game itself (which is already good and getting better monthly), but because of the people you play with. No matter your preference, in a coalition of ~40,000 people there's going to be a group who like the same thing and will help you in achieving that

Pierson posted:Can people talk some more about how well the new sov system works and not just the bullet-point features? It looks super-interesting and a million times better than old sov but I've been fooled by this game before! New sov system isn't out yet, so we can't comment on how good/bad/otherwise it is. Here is the relevant devblog. It's sorta huge but it should have everything you need to know in it.

Numismancer posted:Right, this new system is officially no longer Fozziesov, but Xttzsov - our great prophet of conquest, peace be unto him. I recognized bits and bobs but I didn't really realize how heavily we'd contributed until I hit the bit about the variable contest windows and remembered that exact system being posted about a couple months ago.

CainFortea posted:Man, Fozzie is really reaching some Grayscale levels of cognizant dissonance. "minimum possible" does not mean "none". There have to be restrictions in place to ensure fun gameplay. What fozzie was getting at is that he doesn't want to put arbitrary restrictions in so that underused ship classes come back into vogue.

Rhymenoserous posted:Doing that work however is encouraged and rewarding Eve is like many other sandbox games in that you get out of it what you put into it. Eve with goons is unlike many other sandbox games because you get out of it about 10x what you put into it. Minimal effort yields amazing returns, and consistently putting in a lot of work will land you somewhere space-important in no time. Hell, even semi-consistently putting in a small amount of work for a short period of time is enough to get you space-promoted (its me im the case in point. join topgoon )

~doublepost~CainFortea posted:That's not the way it seemed from context of his blog. He claims to not want to fiddle with the meta. But when most of the smaller group fleet meta involves flying poo poo that can't be caught if even halfway aware of your surroundings, that doesn't really mesh well with the rest of his points. No he absolutely wants to fiddle with the meta, in that he doesn't want to make sov warfare consist exclusively of shotgunning uncatchable interceptors across the universe, and he also wants to break down the apex force problem which has been making eve progressively more unfun every year. Discouraging bad, unfun gameplay from the meta is what he wants to do. Artificially creating a meta is what he wants to avoid.

CainFortea posted:How exactly is making trollceptors not work not artificially effecting meta? It's the same thing as making he module only fit on certain classes of ships. Or just adding role penalties to making it not fit on ships. As far as "artificially creating meta" they're the same. As far as I'm concerned, there's a difference between "excluding this unfun mechanic from the meta" and "shoehorning this random thing into the meta". Evasion based gameplay is not fun and being appropriately disincentivized. That's different from saying "I think battlecruisers should be used more, so I'm going to force the playerbase to include them in their meta by making them a critical part of sov warfare". One is constructive, removing the possibility of the least fun doctrine becoming the most effective. The other is destructive, limiting player choice (which is something that CCP actively strives to avoid).

Woodburger posted:Conversation has moved on but I've been thinking about posting a thread on the forums (if there isn't one) about playing other games with all you lovable people. I just got GTA V for PC and it is dragging me away from Eve. If any of you want to dick around you can add me on Steam, steam name is the same as here. I didn't want to come across as trying to take away from the H1Z1 stuff but it sounds like this actually fits into that idea. Come do some gay heists and gently caress with pubbies with me. https://goonfleet.com/index.php/forum/50-games/

Yeah low and slow is the way to go with ribs, as with most meat that isn't sear-sear-serve. I think the last time I did side ribs it was like four to six hours at 200-something covered in bbq sauce, re-basting with the bbq every half hour or so

polyfractal posted:ffffffff I felt the call of the motherland and resubbed. Drama: We started a rental empire. We started a corp that recruits from reddit. We recently completed the transition from funny gimmicks to tryhard gimmicks. Frabba killed sig towers (honestly this is the worst bit out of everything). Moon mining is super profitable, but good luck getting anything - R64s and some R32s are nationalized, and everything else profitable is goonrushed. Reaction farms are a great way to make isk if you've got like 12bn seed cash sitting around. E: different topic: Man, TMDC has really been in the shitter lately. while they appear to have sorta-fixed their misshapen boxes problem, now half the titles don't fit.

jassi007 posted:So I apologize if these are stupid questions, if I was in the corp like 2-3 years ago, can I rejoin? (assuming I am not currently in it) Is it worth joining if my playtime is realistically like 1-2 hours a night 2-3 times a week? I am thinking of reactivating my account. Yes, assuming you're not blacklisted for some reason. Sorta - it all depends on what you want to do. Most mainfleet poo poo takes ages to get spooled up, and even longer to go do its thing, which may or may not result in a fight. Most of the sub-organizations do their own poo poo which tends to get out of the gate faster and be a little more flexible on where you're going/what you're doing/how long you can stay out for. Plus, generally if you can't find something to do with people there's a reasonable amount of solo activities you can get up to with varying levels of fun.
