As you may or may not know I resubbed to give the new BM skills a try, and see whats happened to the old Farstar.
1] Not as dead as I was expecting population wise, ie nobody, lot less than anytime before I left. Almost impossible to survive without being in a guild now too, apart from legacy quest, nothing is geared to solo play.
2] Inflation is just unreal. Spammers were offering 100 Mill for 10 bucks the other day.
3] MOBs are just crazy hard. I'm a level 88 BH on my alt and I can only take on 1 at a time at my level. All the stuff I need to do for EXP like kill 25 of these CL60 NPCs is borked as they always pull in 3's. I use capped armour, buffs and PSGs and most times I get incapped at least once.
However, as I con so high to them, if the mission is go here and inspect this, I can just walk down and do it but get just 1 exp for killing them.
Unfortunately this means forget soloing anything that's going to get you exp, and as I am on my tod this is more than frustrating.
4] FAR to many l33t kids. PVP score seems to be all anyone bothers with now. Lots of n00bs running around begging too which is annoying as fuck as you don't need money for first 40 levels.
5] BM is fun, but unless you have an UBER pet it's not worth spending all the experience points you need to negate the 25% damage reduction, simply does not make up for all the lost skills IMHO.
I may change my mind on this when my pet is lev 90, however they also brought in a system where you loose levelling exp gain by your pet being unhappy. Mines unhappy fighting NPCs.
IT'S A FUCKING TIGER! IT'S MADE TO EAT PEOPLE!!!
6] Space is still brilliant. Gif Lev 8 reward guns plz.
7] I like mining. Crafting is still shite, however they are trying to do something about it, slowly but steadily, but who the fuck wants to play Uncle Owen anyway?
8] MASSIVE time sink.
Any good? Not bad.
Will I stay? Probably not.
X-wings better than anything I fly in EVE? Oh fuck yes
