    Hello,

    So I personally think pocket warriors have a huge advantage in the game (It's my opinion, don't get offended if you are one). It's pretty hard to fight a fully elite goliath verses a leo in the new start of a server. So basically if there was a server with no way of buying your way out of the game instead of working for your stuff that would be epic and make the game more challenging.
    In my opinion, if DO were to open this, it would make getting Full Elite (or Uber Elite) a real accomplishment instead of just buying for it and make the game more fun, challenging and more playable. Just think of a hundred newbies in a Big Boy ship verses a goliath ship, pure pwnage.

    The reason why I ask for this is looking back at 2007-2010 servers, it was rare to see a fully elite goliath, and certain ships like Big Boy/Leos/Piranhas etc with flax drones were popular. Now a days everyone has a goliath and it is rare to see noob ships with flax drones because of how easy the game got. Just think about it. I know DO relys on people to buy uridium, but it's worth a try :p
     
  2. Although I get your point, i think first and foremost, if you want respect regarding this topic, dont refer to people as pocket warriors or wallet warriors. I personally find that offensive. Buying equipment doesnt make you a good player, it is years of learning that do. So lets remove that from the back. Also, this sounds like a fun idea, the problem is this, if you know what its like to FE, why would you wanna start from scratch to be FE in a diff server without the option to buy it. This idea would work though because it is interesting and challenging. BUt also dont forget, that more and more people want to spend money now, it was DO's intention to create a game that brings income. So although I would to see this tested, I doubt DO will do it :(

    I love seeing a goli w/ under 8 iriss or a flax mixed in. My vengi will hunt and kill them. I bought a goli on my server for 500,000 credits and 4 designs for 10,000 each.

    As to hunting a goli w/ 10 drones no way i have to run or pop

    As to those who choose to spend 1 1000 or 2 on becoming ufe good on them! I work for my ship the old fashioned way; and it's still a lot of fun. DO would never create such a server why it would not generate income. But your idea sounds fun for new players like myself.
     
  4. the game is here to bring in profit for BP. not to make people happy, have you not figured that out yet :)
    * and its because of the pocket/wallet warriors that you have a game to play.....just a thought

    Here is a perfect interpretation of how BP feels about F2P players.
