Looks like CCP is going after all the other bunch of game developers. Taking bad decisions that in the end will lead to the death of the game.  
For the moment I am suspending the subscription for my acc. Just gonna sit back and wait to see if the designers that took this (stupid) decision gonna get fired, or at least a little bit of the brain they lost, back.  
It’s been a fun game … until now 🙂

Why? This is a terrible idea, if null is being attacked by drifters, how do people call for help? I sounds like an easy way to make people rage and unsub

Nullsec is only safer when a group organises itself, actions that are undertaken by a few people in key roles whom enjoy that part of the sandbox. There are plenty of areas where that is not true. There’s also plenty of fights… or was until the drifter ■■■■■■■■ came out, then fights stopped while people addressed it. Lowsec is dead because yes, why do you need it? It’s useless, and has been for over a decade, scrap it already.

Talk big about how the players decide on how they play the game. The moment this goes live I’m gone too. This is the last time I’ll be back. This will ruin the game for me. I’m focused enough on local in nul sec just trying to have some fun and now I can’t even see someone trying to gank me until they uncloak?

Good bye. This literally was the worst idea you could come up with.

With no local you might aswell go live in a wormhole. Better rewards there. I’m just plexing my account from now on, I can easily do that.

The day before yesterday I bought a guy who was born with hearth defects a plex to give him a head start. That was nice and I think a good moment for me to just start plexing my two accounts.

As a limited-time “Lore Event” I think this is cool, as a permanent change the the game, I think its a horrible Idea.

All the people who are cheering this change need to realize that all the people they think are going to now be super easy targets are going to move to high/low sec or unsub. “Can i haz your stuff?” you say, well… no you can’t because they won’t be in null anymore.

The only people remaining are going to be heavily guarded ops by big corps. While this will make for some great and awesome PvP battles, it will also make small battles far fewer and less lucrative.

This is also going to force a fundamental change on how the EvE economy works. You may hate it but most of the EvE econ is fueled by industrial players who run multiple accounts. Be prepared for a price spike on everything.

Given the geography of Null, I feel like this is a horrible idea.  
It’s rather difficult to get into one specific WH system if one wishes. However, a pilot can easily and reliably get into any null system.
