CONCORD the true scammers in New Eden

Do you think after 20 years CONCORD would increase their bounties on pirate NPCs? Or are we all working for peanuts now?
Who is being scammed here?
Even if I could kill all 1,000,000 isk bounties I find I would have to kill 3,000 per month of them or 100 a day, every single day, per month. Why does the market go up in value but the bounties are locked in time never to increase in value?

Or you could just simply pay an Omega sub instead of mindlessly grinding NPC’s day after day…

Leave the Guristas Refugees alone!

Why would CONCORD increase the bounty on pirate NPCs? Those pirates are hardly hurting anyone in HS, CONCORD only pays a little so the pirate factions don’t grow too big a nuisance.

I mean, many capsuleers are killing NPCs even with these ‘low’ bounties. Then why would CONCORD increase the reward?

Turn the faucet on even more? What would open the sink up more?

Death and taxes…

Not death tho. That’s a faucet, generally.

it’s called Capitalism, replace the word kill with work and bounty with salary
and say it again while looking in a mirror :wink:

If you chose to have a job instead of make somethings yourself, this is the path it goes down to.

in IRL your job is a liability to the corp and only exists as long you make the corp money with as little overhead as possible.
in eve your job is to make the corp money with as little overhead as possible or to die and make another corp money.

yes. I think now that choosing to lose my humanity and work for one of the main factions wasn’t such a good idea after all. I was happy on Matar. I was under the impression that the empires would support their Capsuleers but instead I woke up in a Mad-Max world. Woe to me.

I don’t think I will be killing pirates. It looks like the pirates are the good guys in New Eden.

I don’t like peanuts. I’m allergic.
Down with Minmatar/Gallente/Amarr/Caldari
Long live the pirates of New Eden.

If only we could join the pirate factions. Sadly even high standing dont stop the npcs from attacking you.

Well even if not intentional I assume still can fit thematically as they are pirates (considering there is no honor among thieves and all that). :thinking:

:blush:

NPC mining response fleets will actually rep you if you have high enough standing with them.

I think if we could, the empire factions would be devoid of capsuleers.

Thanks for the info.

And it would get more players out of hisec. Pve could drive pvp. Craziness.

Maybe. I don’t know what drives players to stay in HiSec but I decided early on to live in LowSec. I figure I could learn the game much faster by being in areas with more dangerous players.

Near-perfect safety (as long as you aren’t AFK), and the ability to still make billions…

Too much competition for me to hang out only in high sec. I do a lot of hauling across low and null. Buy low, transport, sell high. I guess the safest way to play Eve would be to just live in Jita and run micro-trades all day long. I do that to some extent. I buy items low store them and sell when the margin is over 25%.
