I think this is not going to have the effect you intended.

Done the WH thing. Lore idea is dumb. The NS folks would be fueling that anyway.

Your whole arc has been bad for the game. Bold yes…Dumb yes…Way to make large groups stronger.

Make mechanics that make people want to buy the game. No one ever made money consistently pissing the customer off.

Hey CCP, so maybe we can make isk so much as in WH? Or what isk reward in your meaning? Most stupid idea for last couple year

They got my opinion directly - I will sell the ships I dont need, and look at alpha when my sub runs out - if I carry on playing

The phrase “I’m not locked in here with you, you’re locked in here with me!” comes to mind.

CCP is about to get (another) refresher in the law of unintended consequences. It’ll be fun to watch the aftermath.

i’m normally in highsec but i believe this is a bad idea,

right now i felt all the zones were balanced,

high sec = for people wanting to be completely safe

low sec = for people that want to PVP

null sec = for people that like big alliance and fleet fights

WH’s = for people that like the unexpected

with this change it feels like they just want to combine WH’s together with Null witch i don’t understand why? if you want to get rid of one of the zones wouldn’t it make more sense to just start cutting down on the number of systems or number of WHS that spawn

So you folded to a few cry-babies to chase more people from your game… Smart strategy… (Sarcasm)

Another kick in the teeth for ratters… why don’t you just remove anoms from the game and have done with it

i think it does. more pvp less spodbrains.

Finaly a change that makes nullsec more intersting and a bit dangerous resubing some accounts when this starts.

If newbros thought it was dangerous to move from hisec to nullsec before, imagine how they will feel with no local.

I can only hit the thumbs down button in game so many times before my mouse stops working. Placebo feedback loops are working on the masses.

There’s plenty to LOVE about EVE for me so it is unlikely that I’ll allow this change to make me quit or anything, but I am not supportive of the recent changes including the highly unbalanced Drifter invasion of nullsec and this weakly justified change to local in null. I also don’t get off on seeing people complain about changes they don’t like, so I will try to make my remarks as constructive as possible.

It does not make logical sense to change the local chat mechanic. As stargates must log everyone in and out of their structures, this change seems punitive rather than creative. same goes for the one-sided Drifter attacks. I jumped through a nullsec gate and was met with “Kill Report Available” as I found myself in a pod having been ganked without warning by a Drifter. I can appreciate challenging gameplay, but that’s not really gameplay at all, in my view.

I suspect that there are evaluation systems that track the effects of these kind of significant changes. I do hope that many of those threatening to quit will change their mind; there have been plenty of disliked changes over the years, after all. However, it is disturbing NOT to hear from the CSM about these changes. If this is strictly a CCP change and it was not discussed among the elected CSM members, I think you may have injured the reputation and faith in the CSM for a long time to come.
