It's amusing that after all this time and all this evidence you expect them to follow through and give you something useful (or even anything at all)

Suggested upgrades would be:

Missions
Field terminals
Beta 2
MK2 robots
Syndicate robots

Do you have mirrors of what the game was like at release? If you could roll the server's back to that and then sell upgrades with the new functionality is hump your leg.

Yeah plural. Haven't even the class to say goodbye.

No, he's stopped even pretending to care and now spends dozens of hours playing games instead of pretending to develop them

No the game is dead and they haven't give a *** about it in years.

Don't forget Alf. He was in charge of driving the playerbase away.

The game as it is has ten people playing. If it was a good game this wouldn't be the case. Your defending the things that make it suck which shows you have no clue what creates the kind of game that's successful.
Proverbs 23:20-21 warns us, “Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags."

The thing is, I don't care if I do or don't know what makes a successful game, THE ONLY thing I care about in a game is do ---> I <-----   have fun playing, and in perpetuum I have fun, so I keep playing, I don't do missions because I don't think those are fun, I mine a lot because I think it is fun, I quit playing eve because it was not as fun as perpetuum.

But this thread is about making the game great again, not about making you in particular enjoy playing with yourself. Your input therefore is at best misguided and at worst selfish. You are exactly the kind of player who drives a small indy game in to the ground as it requires a sense of community to sometimes take the hard decisions for the good of the whole. Thats been missing from this game which is one of the reasons why each population burst has been driven in to the ground.

If this game is to succeed, catering to the whims of the ten people still playing is not likely to be a priority

I wasn't offering money to crowdfund, I wanted to buy it.

TBH it should just shut down already

No studio would buy it because the code is incomprehensible. You think they haven't tried?

I'd happily give zoom five grand and pay for the server costs to keep the game going on a FTP basis.

I'd take a 51% share in the company and all I would need is the code rolling back to post release after beta.

This is a serious offer.

a two tuning waspish will kill another assault in two vollies. The patch needs reverting as does the one before that.

Green bots were good, now its just beyond imbalance to completely crazy.

Does zoom even know a waspish will two shot another assault with just two tunings? That a gropho which is supposed to be weak to blue can do the same to a double plated mesmer in like three shots?

Your game balance is irrevocably broken. SHut the servers down already, you have no *** clue how to balance.

As you may have seen in the May Monthly Economy Report, there is a significant upward trend in the Money Supply. This is primarily due to NPC Bounties.
This trend is unsustainable. Having such a large ISK faucet is bad for the economy, and this ISK faucet is concentrated to a relatively small number of players.

i am baffled. these sentences contain so much truth... you could easily translate that to both Perpetuum and Elite.
its no wonder EVE was successfull for such a long time - they do track their economy

The problem is if they do this nerf, then the Ishtar which is a tech 2 cruiser that costs no more then 300 mil isk to fit up will be able to make the same amount of isk as a carrier which costs 1.4bil isk and up fully fitted as a result of this change.

Plus with the cruiser the rats are less likely to shoot at normal drones and you dont have to recall drones except on the few occasions where they are shot which is much less compared to fighters.

See anything wrong with that?

That's horse ***. A good carrier and make 160m an hour now. This change pushes it in to the 100 mil for the average user range which is about the same as a rorqual

So, Eve is dying now?

No, its more like what zoom did with missions. Rorquals are a fun content generator and they have nerfed it to death because of 'balance'

Scarabs are a cancer that I would remove. Smaller cargo means more trips and bigger risk. If also encourages people to live on beta as to hell with moving all the stuff back and forth.

I don't know why people want a reboot. The problem isn't the game they have. It started great, well balanced the best PvP in a game I've played, the only lacking thing this game ever had was in its decision making.

Perpetuum since release has made decision after decision designed to balance or release content that is just poor. It's not the content that sucks, it's the decision making. A reboot wouldn't help if the decisions were the same.

Just imagine if the graphics were amazing and we could play underground and Vs multi tile mechs .. if the balance is this horrific would it be fun? If the PVE encouraged solo play and the only way to make money was with havesting missions would that be fun? If the basis of warfare encouraged two sided conflict which inevitably led to one sided hegemony would that be fun?

It's NOT the game. It's the decisions.

And let's be real about this, the Devs have known some decisions are universally wrong for a long time. They don't act. They are so scared to admit an error they press on and amend that error rather than backtrack and move forward from stable ground.
