I feel this in my space bones. Been in space since 2013 and can functionally do everything, burnt out in 0.0 about 6 years ago, but keep my sub up and occasionally do the solo roam when I fancy shitting in the space chereeos of my old targets.

Gave albion more than a fair shake and will return every few months, I enjoy the routine of the player housing there and the new FW is a nice change of pace.

EvE still holds a special place for me, but I really disconnected when I left reddit. The shitposting and memes of the subreddit really was the pulse of that game for me, I only wish the fediverse could have such activity, it really kept me connected

I do wonder if I should give Albion FW another try. Playing as a free player doesn't even matter for PvP does it? Just need it slower to gain skills/money so not a problem for giving it a try. It was always blobfests in green/yellow zones when I tried it before but I did hear that they were planning on changing things for it and that was quite a while ago now, not played in at least a year.

In both games I always liked small to medium groups, not blobs and not solo.

Albions new FW is even more blobfest, but its much more objective and siege oriented after the update. Both games made a fast travel method for players to get to the front, and the timing is more like the alert system from planetside 2. Overall its a big improvment, you can expirence the big battles that the outlands are famous for, but there are no shot callers and people respawn if they get into the zone in time.

EvEs frontlines are very similar, but without a dramatic fight scheduled every 2 hours.

Is the AO one in yellow or red zone? I got kinda bored of people in extremely expensive gear that they can't lose in yellow.

[-] Bahnd@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

IIRC there are fortresses in both, but obviosuly the yellow zones are more popular, for that exact reason (it is gear capped, so the impact of rich players is minimized)

Not heard of frontlines for EVE, might look it up
