A day in EVE

Just another EVE blog

Goals are important

A player without direction quits.
EVE is a sandbox although people may say only an inch deep it’s still a sandbox, there is no hand-holding, no end-game, no levels.
There is you and space, lots of space. Without goals you lose interest and wither away.

The same can be said for corporations. Since we all started playing regularly again after the summer slump, it was time to redefine our goals. After the big WH fail a couple of weeks back, it was important to map out the next year. I’ll not go into detail too much but here is our current overview:

- recruit active members, slice the inactive ones
- clearly divide between hisec and wh
- setup mining-ops for ice, ore and corpwallet
- configure and buy pieces of the corp
- get the hard-working dedicated ppl to wh for setup
- continue to recruit and “reward” active, loyals with a place in the wh
- start large scale production in wh (corp)
- start research (corp)
- continue to use hisec as our launchpad for members, while not bleeding them out
- secure pvp players for protection
- start capital production

jupz that’s our plan by and large for the corp in the near and not so near future.

I noticed though that ISK is a bad goal. Isk is a means for a goal but not a goal in large. Having 10bil isk is fun and all but so what…. having 10 bil isk to spend however…. now that is damn sweet.
I try to keep a decent reserve but am less worried about spending as I was a couple of months ago. So what if I drop a billion or even 2? if I had fun/profit using that isk, it’s all worth it.
