I hate to agree with you.

Edit; And thanks for catching me up on things! Thiers hope for you yet!

Then don’t. Please.

You are probably right… but if the balance is nearly afk ratters and miners–that’s also a good thing.

after some DayĀ“s blind… hey it is funny… I can play this week in the early morning… Unfortunately, from my Corp in the morning there is noone online. i have a single account, should i go mining? ratting? hm no scout on gate… :confused: pvp? yeahhh no targets they all in the bed too… :confused: cancel my holidayĀ“s and go to work… so i can play this evening one or two hours… :confused: but the lackout is fine… realy i like it. But now the hardcore pvpĆ©r u can tell me… GO TO HIGHSEC DUDE, uĀ“r not able to stay in Null :wink: I like blackout…:confused:

The problem for years has been an over influx of materials vs the level of destruction. It’s shown month after month.

To counter this CCP only could change the amount of minerals needed to manufacture ships, structures and modules by changing the blueprints. Add 10, 20 or 30% - they should have done this regularly every time they pushed out a balance patch, added rorq mining etc.

well that works both ways but in essence that is correct. In nullsec it IS about the pvp, that how you take the space in the first place, and it is how you keep it after. Without that, no pve player has a damn thing.

So anyone who doesnt think that is a little bit daft in the head.

No, the amount of people that dont seem to understand core game prnciples that live in nullsec and are complaining because it doesnt suit them is stupid and spiteful. Why are should they be allowed to ruin the great game that is eve online just because of their misguided views on what dangerous space should be like?
The core concept of the space many of these come from is simple.

Their alliances ā€˜own’ the space.
How did they gain this space? PvP
How do they keep this space? PvP
How do they protect this space and their comrades? PvP
How do they make isk? PvE

No matter which way you shake it, thats how it is and should be; complaining that you have to PvP in sov null just shows the poor moral calibre of the player and just how useless they are as a team memebr and the real and only reason they are in your alliance - to use it and its members to benefit themselves without feeling the need to give back.

Dont pay any attention to this person, they very clearly dont have an actual clue about wormholes and the different classes of wormholes or that you can go wh diving from anywhere anyway so even whilst living in null… you can still use wh’s…

because EvE has ALWAYS been about driving PLAYER interaction. part of that is risk (and usually effort) vs reward

That’s a reasonable point, but there are a fair few people cheering this on purely because they feel that it spites null. They’re not people who will ever come into null to PvP, and they don’t care what the people in null do. All they know is that some people in null don’t like it, therefore it must be good. It’s not about whether this is good or bad for the game, it’s about the fact that they don’t like nullsec players.

Not everyone’s there, mind you. But a fair chunk of 'em are.

I read this demogogy, which is higher and clearly understand one thing - no one here needs a normal and balanced gameplay !!! All they say is that it is easier to make a farm for themselves, that PVP, that PVE, that mining … Not one sensible comment, one tweet of sparrows.
What is the content? You look at the killbord. How many NS are there compared to last weekend? Where are the NS now? 60% in the Empire of Abyss crabs, 30% of girls fry on the beach, 10% scoff at the zeros …
What other comments are there?

Still too early to start running numbers. The first week will be the system shock numbers. The second weekend will start to establish possible trends. The third week will demonstrate the level of activity settling into new normals.

Looking at killboards right now is as useless as looking at PCU right now. As of now, we’ve barely got 1/2 of 1 set of data, and we need 3 complete sets, at least.

I write my present experiences about blackout. Every PvP activities depend on PvE activities as mining, ratting etc. Now what I see every PvE activities stopped. System indexes go down. Ore sites, combat anomalies disappeared. There are fewer signatures. So blackout slowly kill nullsec. As PvE incomes ended PvP activities also will stop, because people won’t have material sources to carry on that. So my final conclusion, blackaout kill nullsec and the game. It’s good to try, but nothing more, it won"t work.

It would take years to destroy the glut in current stockpiles as well as groups would be encouraged to return to mining as prices went up. Also compressed roid ores are so small it’s pretty easy to just ship it around for production.

I’ll admit as cancer as this is for subcaps it made me move from vnis to capital pve… so now i’m officially part of #capitalproliferation

Hooray. thanks ccp… now everyone else simply has to do the same if they wanna play any way other than aggro :slight_smile:

Nullsec will adapt, but mineral prices will be higher than they have been in several years. Also stockpiles i laugh at this statement. Null alliances may have some small amounts squired away, but honestly most of it goes to building to maintain their SRP stock. They have sold excess to fund their other efforts. I see things like minerals slowly dwindling. But in the past they have always been able to supplement their needs from jita and honestly i have seen the buy order scale as well as the sell orders shrink. How will effect the overall market depends on how much other miners can keep up with demand. So expect your tech II to double if not triple in price in the long haul. As for other manufactured things, I predict at least a 15% price increase within the next 3 months to almost 35% in six. I honestly could be wrong here and the numbers are estimates based on past performance markers.

Your right though, the risk reward will balance itself out, but the cost of defense will be applied to sales prices too.

Good luck, fly dangerously & may the loot gods bless you.

Some of them, perhaps… but then, Jita’s already targeted to be starved, now isn’t it?

should i care? I don’t care. After all, in the end, it’s all just a good business for someone’s pocket.
