Wipe!

[L33LEE]

permadeath is why it balances perfectly, even more so than eve. the remnants of the old purity system are all but gone already,( which is why i now have several hundred tier 3 fields which will allow me to bang out a "titan" every 2 weeks or so using no legacy **** at all if i am in a mood to farm. ) and unlike eve you also have the option to remove those characters from the game.

Yea i suppose legacy humus played no part in making the 60% pure 80 element compost bins i own, which ensures the ability to pump out characters like no tomorrow, if i decide to again..

A full wipe is required imho.

PS: Making several hundred Tier 3 fields is easy tbh, it just takes a couple months of waiting for the bars to build, depending how much influence you stack on it. Before the mine/1x1 field wipe, i know the russians on Roanoak had almost 1000x T3 fields inside a mine on 1x1, and were able to process / replant them very fast. Its not hard to achieve this, people are just so ***** lazy and/or stupid as hell.

scratched out what didn't fit. I admit I fall in the category, but proudly so ^^

feel free to show me some 60% boards and 1000 tier3 fields leelee, after that everyone is still waiting with baited breath to see those "at LEAST 10,000 kg" of legacy wheat flour in all the 4 different elements (400+ barrels) you were talking about to.

"at LEAST 10,000 kg" of legacy wheat flour in all the 4 different elements .

Thats only 800 fields at 1750% plenty, no big deal.

[Darwoth]

the "big deal" is the 1600 85%+ humus it would take to create it. the "small deal" is that they do not have it

The server needs to be like HnH where the edge can expand out as the server progresses.

I think you guys missed my point with my bringing up EVE. EVE is a released game, Salem is not. One can only stretch a comparison so far between the two. My comparison with EVE is that it is a game that has ran for 10 years. There are characters that have in excess of 200M SP and tons of characters in excess of 100M. There could be characters in excess of 300M at this point*. There are players and corporations worth trillions of ISK. How's a noob supposed to compete with those people? Maybe CCP should wipe the EVE servers!

10 Year EVE Online VET here, Yah i have tons of SP, tons of ISK, does that make me better then everyone else? Nope

All that does is provide more options of different types of ships, modules, industry options. etc..

EVE Online PVP Combat is like rocks, paper, scissors .. where certain type of a ship / fitting can beat another one ...

EVE has (2) expansions every year, next one is coming Nov 19, which is going to change alot of PVP mechanics... warp speeds for all ships are going to be different and alot of ship balancing / changes ..

New players can compete very easily by joining a corperation with other players - a New player will be the guy who tackles peoples or does EW or a varity of other things ... as they start gaining more skills / levels...

Lots of options ..

As for the Wipe, I believe a Wipe is required because "Legacy Walls" are not degrading ...from what I have observed..

Maybe I should make my post in huge [sarcasm] tags?

Anyone who has played EVE more than 3 months knows these things. Apologies to those who have never even looked at that fine game if I might have misled them. (Then again, anyone that truly understands the mechanics here knows that while a character might have god-like stats, those stats are about meaningless in the right/wrong situation.)

thats the problem, a huge portion (most) do not bother to understand/learn the mechanics so the rest of us have to constantly listen to this sky is falling *****. i killed several people from the candy gang on roanoke, stole binks (the guy with 1k to his stats) high end combat gear, tricked the queen into nearly dirtnapping in a mine shaft, was literally 10 minutes away from gaining access to their humus/seed stocks (if the guy i was tricking had not been stoned/retarded i would have gotten access) and a few other things all with a character i made from scratch in under a week that had approximately 50 stats.

so yeah, i get real tired of the constant ***** from retards that are to lazy to even achieve half of the stats possible with the current system pretending like they have no chance. you have no chance because of your own apathy and timidness, not because of perceived or greatly exaggerated advantages.
