I WANT CAPTAL NPCS

[gareelar]

Personally i run lvl 4's semi afk-ing most of the time, due to having small baby with me at home that ocasionally requires attention, so i warp in there pull whole pocket, set tank and logistics, pull drones out and i can go afk while my heavy, med and light drones doing the job. I play on 3 clients so this game style allows me to easily do that.

But sometimes i would like to have more challenge while missioning, so choosing between hard and normal mode would really be a nice option to have.

[gareelar]

So it would be nice that CCP adds an option, when you speak with an agent, which allows you to choose between normal lvl 4 and lets say hardened or AI version of the same mission, with better rewards ofcourse, but reasonably more challenge and risk aswell.

[gareelar]

I think they should leave lvl 4 missions atm as they are, due to loads of people doing it for cash or LP's and want to do it in 'boring and relaxed' way, means they are reading something on forums meantime, watching youtube or whatever ppl do while running them.

Another reason is that younger pilots wouldnt have skills good enough to run 'harder' lvl 4's and that change could make their life near impossible with an option to even go back to lvl 3's, for which are they already 'too old'.

[kurtleics]

Dont get me wrong, its good to keep the pve side of eve going, but they focus too much on the boring stuff in my opinion.

Pirating in low sec is hard, and granted it should be! But why not open up pirate factions to factional warfare.

Way too many people sit around in high sec, low sec is kinda neither here nor there, then obviously big numbers in certian parts of 0.0

I propose making low sec risk/gain ration better as more people need to leave the comforts of high sec. IMHO

[eveDjakku]

I think in low sec there should be a LOT more high reward missions, bringing the carebears back to .4 for me to probe out.

[Ariolander]

39:12 Awesome!

One does not simply walk into Curse!

[Dragonwe11]

30:40 - HAAAAAAAND

Also, Hammerhead reminds me of John Petrucci. o.O

[dendugger]

the npc's in missions just fly around stupidly wait to get poped, how when i got intercept a convoy on a mission that it actually looks like a convoy (formation), how about npc thaat help u fight in missions.

[Jagger2637]

I really like the idea of new missions. That chick was talkin bout a mission where two sides are fighting and you have to aid one side. Aggro changes would be cool. Convoy missions as well.

[Hauler24]

That does sound a lot more interesting.

[nobatadared]

"One does not simply walk into Curse." :D

[cosy18]

well is making NPC's more intelligent require more server load CCP should use the money from eve on that not making console FPS or emo vampire games

just saying

[RollioPolleaous]

I doubt Dust or the World of Darkness mmo are going to be non profit ventures. Besides a lot of the core tech they're developing for new games gets integrated into eve.

[Hauler24]

I agree. Why they want to make Dust and waste money on what they think could be cool is not a cool idea.

[Snakebloke]

Waste money? Stfu, I cant wait for DUST I have 3 eve accounts and I will still get in dust. If its getting moar of my money then they are doing the right thing.

[Hauler24]

Well that is your opinion. I feel its going to suck and it does take away money from CCP in regards to focusing all of their attention on problems or enhancements for EVE. I know they feel that Dust is going to be awesome, but I don't think so. Also I'm sure DUST will be DLC content only so have fun paying for upgrades in addition to your 3 eve accounts. Also it messes up a lot of things in EVE not so much so for Dust.

[ogat11]

DLC plus Xbox LIVE subscription? no thank you. who the hell plays FPS' on a console anyway the ONLY way to do it is mouse and keyboard please.

That being said if Dust 514 was on PC i would jump on that shit right away.

[mode7james]

Believe it or not, many more people are playing fps on consoles now. Back when I was in college, and Counterstrike was big, you're right, people played on a pc. When Halo came out, I thought console fps was rediculous and hard to control.

Now, that's not the case. Modern Warfare 2 is expected to sell over 3 mil on the xbox360 alone. Most people don't have $3k to spend on a pc strictly for games

[ffaaassssddddddddd]

what most people dont understand is you don't have to drop $3k to get a pc that will run most games at top quality. I spent 1.5k on mine (granted i built it from parts - still not hard) and it runs every game i've encountered at max settings no problem

[Jibes]

I assume you included screen and peripherals in your 1.5k figure?

[Jeff55369]

You're totally right about not having to spend a lot. I built mine 2 years ago with 800, i haven't had any issues to date with not being able to run programs.

[cosy18]

hmmm lets talk about this

is not NPC duty to train/prepare most basic things so ppl can go to real PVP ?

what CCP tell you is "we dont want to spend money on that" period so yeah CCP spend money on other projects instead of fixing the damn stupid NPC that could get more ppl in PvP on the long run

dust and wod is just 2 example where CCP want to spend the money

[pheonex]

cosy npcing has never been there to train people for pvp, wtf you on about?

[CompactDisc7227]

That dutch person should learn to really speak english xD

I was almost tuning into dutch instead of english :p

[SeriousBusiness100]

well not everyone has English as their first language, and at least he is trying unlike alot of people who go abroad and do not even try to fit in with locals

[CompactDisc7227]

It was a she and I was just making that remark as a friendly rivalry between Belgians and Dutch people as usual :p

I'm Belgian and my English is alot better you know?

I speak the same language as that Dutch person.

=)

[benmols]

They didnt answer the first question very well..... He asked what changes to Missions and PVE not PvP........

[mmmunson]

6:55 LOL dude looking back was like "who the hell is talking?"

[VoluptuousAlchemy]

Another great thing about EvE unlike other games the PvE AND PvP is indirectly linked, no matter where you are PvE'ing expect some PvP drama, mainly thieves XD, one of the best things about EvE, hope this never changes.

[devhdc]

Snypah!

[Dreadnaught1985]

Better than "First"

You must have Sensor boosters fitted!
