Better yet, watch a youtube video, right click every now and again and say you played EvE.

This statement is pure awesome.

I wish these companies would stop trying to please EVERYONE. They just wind up pleasing NO ONE.

Stop trying to make every thing on one dam server for god sake. Give the dam carebears their own server where they can compare dresses and bake bread and give the rest of us a real server. If we wanted carebear PvP we can go play one of the other 23196413209456304574365086508365103865 games out there that are the same god dam thing.

I understand the OP, it just seems to be taking the wrong route everytime the DEVs reach a fork in the game play road. If they have just one PvP server with no BGs at launch with full loot and some sort of loss at death I'm happy. However they don't seem to be going that way, all the DEVs want to do is convince us that BGs are going to be great.

Well they haven't Beta tested it so how would they know what we like? It looks to me that come hell or high water this is going to be a watered down space sim with BGs, and the DEVs have decided that already. They won't remove BGs but will tweak them in Beta, well if I know first I'm fine with that. It doesn't stop me being dissappointed, but I'm sure there are more gamers that will enjoy instances than not, right? Look at Wow, WAR and AoC BGs and instances increased the player base and made the game more enjoyable right? Yeah that's what I thought when playing in BGs and instances "This is just gay".

If I want to PvP in an instance or BG and lose nothing I have BF 2142 or a plethora of better and cheaper games for that purpose. Why buy an MMORPG and pay a sub for a watered down Freelancer server? But hey what the fuck do I know about what people want anyway? I'm just a customer and know what I want and my mates that were going to play this game want, I guess I'm just a member of what did Smedley say again? Ah yes that's it the "Vocal minority", we'll see what course they decide to follow when it launches.

/ rabid rant end

Great post and I totally agree.

I was really looking forward to this game, but the last dev chat was like a punch in the gut. No piracy at launch, really emphasizing instanced PvP, and squads are all but pointless, basing all PvP on factions. Really sad to see this game going this direction. I'll still try it, but my hopes were crushed pretty good.

The OP has a valid point, he just needs to learn how to express himself more maturely.

I'm a carebear

Where can I sign up?

I would love to try a space based MMO that was not PvP focused and had significant PvE content.

     Me too..  I was initially hooked by the game "Elite" which happens to be Jumpgate Evo's great grandfather..  Elite was all about PvE content because it was a single player game.. I would of loved to see that set up go MMO..  From my understanding, the game is suppose to have 3 factions?  I have no problem with world PvP as long as it's controlled and limited..  Let me explain further..

     I assume the game will be home to 3 factions with "hundreds" of different systems to travel to.. Lets assume that each faction has 100 systems that can be filled with a wealthy supply of content to keep on playing for a long time without having to ever go PvP..  However, if you wish to be daring, greedy and adventurous, you can travel INTO enemy territory (flagging you PvP) and attempt to raid NPC ships or systems to aquire "pirated" items... If I see someone from the opposite faction coming into my territory and is flagged.. I have the option of doing nothing (which means I'm not flagged and I'm safe from PvP).. or I can go PvP and attack him and take my chances..   This is just like WoW where if a horde toon is attacking an alliance city, alliance players have options to partake in PvP or not..

     However, to tease people into crossing borders they must be a reason to.. such as risk and reward items and resources..  This means the devs would have to generate 4 sets of items and resources.. 1 set for each faction..and 1 neutral global set..  So if my faction only gives me "abc" resources, and naturally I can get  "123" global resources, but I desire to aquire "xyz" resources I need to cross the border and take my chances..

     I just don't want to play or see a game where a group of 4 people from an opposing faction can cross borders and target unwilling players and kill them..  PvP games need to be 100% consentual by both parties..
