I hope all the big null sec alliances storm High sec 0.5 systems taking them all over from the small corps. Places to now send their miners for supplies. Also hope ship values increase at 4x current value and also any T2 building becomes so costly that almost no one can afford it anymore. Then watch the pvpers cry and poor on the salt when prices of things go through the roof. Even the legit miners not botting all they did is make things easier to gank more miners. Honestly I think many miners are on edge already if they want to play the game anymore and think these changes will finally send them packing. Really hope it unfolds like this so pvpers got to pay a small fortune just to get one ship anymore! ---

just posting this here, so i don’t have to second guess myself later if or how i should have given explicit feedback. When the blackout was announced i wasn’t particularly thrilled but interested in how it would play out. When it went into effect however it hit me more than i had expected. No local gives me the feeling of constantly needing to look over my shoulder and i don’t enjoy that at all, no matter if i’m out to pvp or pve. It pretty much killed my interest in logging in for anything but alliance pings and doing space work for my corp. i don’t know if i would stay in null or in the game even if this goes permanent… 🙄 ---

Be better if @CCP_Falcon actually got involved in the topic and provide some form of CCP side of things. You know actual information, instead of all this player speculation. ---

Too early. They’re at least two weeks away from having gathered _useful_ data. The current dataset would cover the Shock and maybe the beginnings of Adaptation stages. Adaptation is still on-going and will _probably_ need another week, and then you’d start seeing what the new stable situation is. Until then, it’s kind of pointless to have CCP statements on it, since it won’t actually tell anyone anything useful yet. ---
