Hopefully the big blue doughnut will start to look more like swiss cheese. This is exactly what I have been hoping for. Nice one CCP, shake ■■■■ up!

Just an idle thought…

If the Drifters and the Trigs take territory, would that be a step towards making them playable?

Full trig lineup is pretty much inevitable atm and the skills for the ships spell “precursor” , not “triglavian”. The question is - who will be next? In my world those are drifter ships

Highly unlikely, unless the skills will be seeded by NPCs. And then they need to find some other reason to dive into abyss 😃

When I started playing EvE was harsh. Now it is a joke.  
If goons can replace citadels easily what is the point of this purge? Smaller entities will suffer more because of this. They think they found solution to citadels spamming? If we replacing player vs player interaction with npcs there is something wrong with the pvp sandbox. Players are bored, the gap between NS and other getting wider and wider. Things must be shaked up hard, and soon, like till end of the year.

PvP sandbox doesn’t go anywhere, just the rules change a bit. And that’s if this the drifters stay constant thread in null, which is unlikely

My ❤ For CCP has re-kindled.  
This could be a serious shake up all around New Eden that looks to be quite interesting and fun.  
For the naysayers, perhaps you forgot that CCP has told us in the past to HTFU. Perhaps they are reminding us all

Actually it allows PvPers to take on much larger groups. PvE fit stuff does pretty damn poorly against PvP ships, Defending against driters? Lets snipe your logi and watch your defense fleet collapse and you loose your structure. This invasion could allow PvP groups to punch WAY above weight class.

From my perspective (pve) it would be great. Pirate faction returning fire and fight with invaders that attacked their regions. So they just won’t be anoms in space, but we all know it wishfull thinking, CCP is just too weak and narrow minded to pull something like that. Drifters are just summer special to keep PCU higher than usuall.

I hope so, EvE is not even at it’s 30% potential, it just really stupid people in charge there. I can imagine where it would be with right management. Smaller studios producing greater games.

Not as a playable race but possibly evolve into Factions with Agents for players to work for.

Looks like the NPC standings game mechanic is now in full swing.

I’m mixed on this. On the one hand I am not a fan of how null has basically “null beared up” and are all singing around the campfire.

On the other hand PvPers being forced to PvE is wrong.

I’m going to say it was wrong of CCP, but they [null bears] had it coming 😄

I’d add that null would have never beared up if Upwells disgorged their contents when destroyed ☠

For that reason this is CCP trying to make two wrongs = a right.
