Time to tell a story.
I play EVE and the corp I'm in was recently wardec'd by a solid merc corp with many skilled players (20M SP+).
Our corp has lots of new players, many with only 3-6 mo experience. (1-5M SP's)
Yesterday, an experienced enemy interceptor pilot locked down a new players Caracal (missle firing T1 cruiser) so his mates could come kill him.
Well, the new player, being new, had not outfitted his ship with Heavy missiles, (they normal fitting)
which would have had no chance to hit the interceptor, instead he had fitted assault missile launchers specifically designed to take out small fast targets (like interceptors)
Much to the dismay of the enemy pilot, ( a veteran with hundreds of kills) he lost his expensive T2 interceptor to a player with less than 3 mo's experience in a cheap, anyone can fly in less than a month Cruiser.
Now of course these results aren't necessarily typical, but it does show what a little out of the box thinking can do to empower even a new player to the game.
It was my corpmates first kill and he was so proud of himself. (heck we were all proud of him..it was a great kill)
My corp is regularly flying nightly pvp missions in empire and players with less than 6 months experience are having a blast fighting along side the veterans and fighting for our lives. (oh yeah, we give them ships if they need them, only fair considering how fast they go boom sometimes)
If this isn't the experience you had when playing EVE, then you really haven't seen the real game yet, and should give it another go.
How can I say no to eve now?
