The BS prices will not be affected unless there is 1) a fluctuation in the prices of minerals or 2) the mineral requirements are changed.
point 1) is likely although I suspect they are more likely to go up. point 2) haven't heard anything to this effect and they are cheep enough atm imo. |

i mine all day long and its ruinign my eve 'fun'.. its gettign more and more boaring each time i go out to mine.. and rats are eighter to tought or too weak. jaspat would be nice to mine if the locations didnt spawn thorax rats that shoot big missles and used mwd's.. youd think the prices would go down though..

why would prices go down?
if anything makes it more difficult to get minerals - prices go up.
if less people want the battleships - prices go up as the producers need to get more money to cover the BPO costs.

I find it quite insulting to be referred to as a kid I think theres a pretty high percentage of players that are adults of all ages, inlcuding myself. Just take a look around the forum's and you'll see how many actually work for a living.
In fact, go here: Linkage If you check the last few pages you can see the pictures aswell.
I think for a lot of people, EVE is a nice escape from the pressures of real life, and I for one find it does that well for me

I think I have never had over 15M in my wallet during my almost one year Eve experience. Yet I have lots of fun. Try to move your focus from time to time. Currently I am having a blast doing Agent Missions; especially the agent mission description I got last nite was hilarious: .... Durin almost as dispicable as that mOo corp guys ... or something like that

Yes, chances are, Shiva is still coming out in May. And knowing CCP, that must mean they'll be releasing it at 12:01 am, May 1st, right?...Right?

With 750k skill points and about 6 million in assets you can earn 10 million an hour alone. Not very hard to get a battleship that way.

Rene, I've met a lot of players like you, and it seems everyone who quits even complains that its a mining simulator. It's not. I havent mined in a month or more. Combat is just about all I do. When I need money, I spend 2 hours streaming npcs and make 2-3 mil.
Agent missions are a pretty good way to make money too. At least half of my current 40 mil came from implants I got doing agent missions.
Lastly, our corp had a player quit recently who was a trader. IMHO trading is by far the most profitable profession in the game. This guy handed over the account to a corp member with over 200 mil in raw cash on it, and its still coming in as his sell orders fill...

Many of the community are 30+, myself included. You might wanna get yourself in a player corp or switch corp if you are in one. EVE has so much more to offer than mining. And even mining can be fun when it's an staged corp op

ETA on shiva in may-isch
BS prices are player based, so no telling what will happen to them. I doubt however they will go down seeing the efforts needed to get the mins to build it.

i have alittle over 1.5mill.. and i cant make 2-3mill an hour.. and ive done rat hunts before. ive even set there with a drones out and let rats attack me.. troubel is drones are so stupid they get shot down. you wouldnt think a 2k rat could take out a ogres drone.. i made enought to buy a new drone .. wow. the only reason i have 35mill or so is cause i put it on an alt with zero sp.. and its hard to be in the heat of the moment buying spree when you have to relog to trans the money back to your main..if you make 2-3 mill an hour.. id like to see logs and other records that prove it, i dont think its possable.. well beyoung the 24isk mex runs i did in hostile space.. ohh well 34k at 24 a peice, i made nice that day. although i did get pasted jumping out.

Well if you leave the drones out they are gonna get whacked. The fact that you have not learnt how to make money does nto mean its impossible. I have a friend who ninja-mined crokite in his newbie ship on his first day and had a cruiser on his 2nd day....

P.S. i havent had a terrably good run with PVP corps, or any corp for that matter.. and i knwo alot of older people play eve.. but i cant really tell some people are so childish i cant find humor in it... and im sorry if i offended anyone by my age comments. i've been playing first persons liek rainbow six 3 for awhile now, and i generally dotn think of older people in games cause of it. i think i meet 2 25+ in RS3, they had the same guestion as me.. "why do the other players hop around like bunny rabits on drugs?" lol.

Rene,
Making money is easy in Eve although you are right in saying mining is dull (hence why min prices are climbing as less do it). It is easy to make the sums of money posted, just try something different such as agent missions and get yourself in a good corp as they will be able to help you considerably

I've been playing eve since it came out in stores and the key to not getting bored is to change what u do every once in awhile..one week i'll mine for about 5 hrs a day then when i get tired i'll go hunt rats...there are endless things to do in eve and only and unimaginative person gets bored.
..whats really fun is using an alt to harass gate campers...now that is entertainment at its finest
...also get into a corp with cool ppl..the mining time flys while your chatting with friends...and dont think miners dont make money...ive owned every bs in the game..some several times and just purchased a scorp bp...so stop whinning, set goals and get to it!!!!

thats a tad bit of an over telling of the truth.. ti woudl take 2 days min to get to lvl 4 frigate, not to mention the controls and what not, plus all the other things.. you cant exactly go out and broadcaste 'whats a location for crokite?' some one woudl be out there ready to war over ti in a heartbeat.

Making money is very easy. I hunt high end cruisers and battleship rats(if they spawn), in a Tier 1 Battleship, and get 2mil, when there are battleships 3 or 4mil per hour. But then, sometimes the spawns are exhausted and I need to wait a bit, mostly on the station that's 1 jump away

First of all you can start out with frigate lvl 4 :) i know because my alt was on a cruiser the first day.
Second i would like to point out that the energetic kids are exactly the ones that are NOT playing this game, this game is made for accountants if you think about it :P.
And seeing as the average age of players is about 27 i think saying 'kid' to anyone would be a bad idea in 80% of the cases =)
