Isn’t exactly clear, and that seems to be the only communication from CCP on the subject. Doesn’t seem like they really wanted anyone to notice till after the fact.
I’ve heard that it was intended for highsec only, but that would be a neat mechanic.
Meh, I figured it’s highsec only so CCP doesn’t upset the null alliances. they rather upset highsec.
So far Invasions are pretty disappointing most of your isk comes in salvage which you can’t protect.
None of the actual sites have been spawned just these roaming fleets.
And to top it off nicely you nerfed the crap out of incursion spawns… gj
One of the other threads has nullbears crying that they have to go into high sec for the new content.
Pretty awesome that the same thing has both groups crying.
The fundamental ■■■■ up being that they required the payout to be salvage with no in-game mechanism to either distribute or protect it.
It is really sad to see that the weeks of hype that lead up to this has just been so CCP could drop a turd on all the people waiting for the invasions by not even guaranteeing their own loot.
Then we find out days later that Incursions are mysteriously not spawning and it turns out CCP conveniently forgot to mention the change that affects the thousands of incursion runners in EVE. It only gets mentioned in a throwaway line on a support article that CCP have screwed up incursions.
It is, but if the Trigs spawned in null, there would be much wailing from the nullbears.
The simple fact is CCP has screwed over Incursions to try and force people into the new content, and that’s not very nice.
Real ones that should be crying are low sec through, because most of them are -10 and can’t even enter HS. But they don’t and why? Because the few that are left after CCP killed it for the last 10y already mentally gave up on eve, so they don’t care.
It would be whined about wherever it spawns because its a terrible mechanic trying to be shoved down our throats to replace a perfectly working and fun incursion mechanic
The way these Invasion run, they seem a great fit for lowsec. Leave them there and repair the damage to the HS Incursions by returning it to 3 highsec spawns, and forcing a full set of spawns at DT.
Since u seem to love inovations…,a few suggestions for the next patch…,
-Remove at least 1 lazer slot from miner ships
-Reduce asteriod belts to just 1 roid AND arm it with weapons
-Make anyone who hits this roid flashy yellow
-Ban all Hisec from Hisec and make anyone who flies there a criminal
And hey…,if all those ideas sound far fetched…,u can allways go on and screw incursions again…,after all who gives a damn abt a bunch of ppl spending a fortune and countless hours trying their best in a tiny aspect of the game…right?
Yeah, and I can’t believe CCP tried to sneak it by us. Like how in the world did they think nobody would notice by not putting it in patchnotes/devblog. I want whatever they’re on.
Yeah, for real. A lot of incursion runners may be carebears, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t hardcore. Like, I had to complete a training course and take a test in a video game, just so that I could get more responsibility in that game (Logi Master with WTM). Moreover people invest a significant amount of skill training time and isk into doing this activity.
They say hindsight is 20/20, but I don’t know how they couldn’t have seen incursion runners getting upset about CCP messing with their content.
I don’t know. Makes me wish the CSM was more representative. Maybe if there was a carebear or two on the CSM, they could have piped up about the incursion spawn rate nerf or the trig invasion rollout. But who knows, perhaps they focused grouped this stuff with some carebears.
Also, this new Triglavian Threat has caused the Sansha Nation to tread more carefully, lowering the amount of available Sansha Incursions.
looks like they’ll be many HS omega players gone w/i ~4wks, when their isk runs out.
what long standing omegas are going to fly as around as an alpha for a month or two,
even if sansha focuses ever come back.
1 focus, that covers tdf, maybe nga,
u just kicked the wtm following out the game, basically.
nobody wants to run tpphs forever.
market people, the ships that die the most are going bye bye, factor that into ur incursion ship/module prices.
Dude, everyone in one focus doesn’t just mean we’ll be stuck running TPPH’s. It means we’ll be contesting TPPH’s.
You have to think. There are WTM, TDF, NGA, and as far as we know 2 Other Regular Multiboxer Fleets. Imagine them all being crammed into 1 focus oh my god.
CCP conventions r filled with ppl who just like to Pew Pew otheres…,what better way to make them happy by making us incursion runners to compete all the time and eventualy come up with ways to kill each other over TPPH’s…,NRF’s n’ all…!.,the crime was well premeditated…
Hell, if CCP is worried that Incursions are a money tap for alphas to never need to spend RL cash with them (which I get), then make the sodding Incursions Omega only, tell everyone it was my idea and they can $$$$in’ hate me for it, and us Incursion pilots can get our spawns back and keep flying. But no way am I spending my RL cash on a game that screwed the one aspect I really enjoyed because they regret going free to play.
When you get time to do SOE arc on a weekend. Good job CCP.
