     Bottom line is that Eve will keep you about engaged enough that you can run two clients simultaneously, listen to music and still do high level college work at the same time (I did it).

     

    Well, this is one way to play EVE. Shame you never figured out other ways to enjoy it.

    But there are other choices and I've found several ways to make it more fun, though most involve pvp activities, in gangs and fleets.

    The PVE stuff is boring and just an ends to the mean.

  • Hey OP, you sound very familiar, what was your account name that was banned before this one?

    DF looks great on paper, one day we might get to see it and we'll finally find out how well it executes.

    EVE is flawed, I like the fact that a new player can take on a old character however not the fact that a frigate or 2 can take out a BS just stupid... only game I know of who has small guns give lots of damage to big ships and big guns hardly do any damage to small ship... just tell me the logic of that because it really puzzles me.

     

    You fail to understand the game's design. If EVE wasn't designed this way, small ships would serve no long term purpose, and before long, everyone would be flying around in Battleships or larger, and the game would be uninteresting.

    Its all about the fitting. Battleships can be fitted with long range large guns, for the purpose of killing other large ships at range. (and most medium ships as well).

    But if a player choses, he can fit the BS with Smart Bombs (i've run into this) and small guns and surprise med/small ships with a barrage of lethal fire.

    What you can't do is fit a ship for every situation.  This encourages players to fly together, to experiment with different fittings and yes, makes small ships viable at all points in the games lifecycle.

    Each ship has a purpose, each has a primary fitting, and several alternate fittings which can be used to surprise other players.

    There is so much to EVE's combat that most players (IAMMMO comes to mind) fail to understand and appreciate.
