Monthly Economic Report - December 2020

The thing is rorquals just accelerated a situation that was approaching either way, they would still have had to deal with resource distribution at some point. Rather now than later imo.

Same with capital proliferation better to deal with it now than later too.

They are very late at the party. Both capital proliferation and resource overabundance must been addressed years ago, but I guess they made enough money for CCP to not worry too much about game future.

I find it quite interesting that Solitude is outmining most of nullsec. Mining Veldspar in high sec is more profitable than mining Arkonor in nullsec, and doesn’t leave you with a huge pile of pyerite that you can’t get rid of. Ice just doesn’t spawn anymore and the asteroid belts in null sec don’t have any rocks in them so unless you get a lucky Crokite or Mercoxit rock or you rent a moon, mining in null sec is dead. Working as intended? Or unintended consequence?

Looks like WH krabbing has gone up by quite a bit…

So has anybody figured out why the regional destruction doesn’t match their first slide? The giant uptick in destruction on the first slide seemed like an error to me - especially since it has been sustained all month.

There are profits to be made in bootlegging Tobacco across New Eden.

Holy cow, that massive tank to bounties.

I don’t think they’ve confirmed but my bet is ESS doesn’t show on bounties any more, so maybe double that number for real bounty income.

Destruction went up by 1T isk and bounty payments went down by 1T isk . . . perhaps the ESS is being counted as “destruction” :face_with_monocle:

Yeah I’m wanting to know where the numbers went if it hasn’t been posted in another form. If the numbers there are true, then it’s blackout 2.0. I figured there’d be a dip in bounties but I didn’t think it would go down that far.

Check number of kill outside delve war.
You are in blackout 2.0.

CCP have done to many nerf 0.0 is not viable any more.
Beacause you need to be in 0.0, LS and HS to make ship, you need to move a lot of miner outside 0.0 to substain you’re prod ( and remimber in HS they are not free kill, they are to gank, and it’s harder to gank 50 orca in HS, than just kill a mining fleet in 0.0).
So 0.0 is not independent in ore any more , it loose attraction, and a lot of player drop the game for this beacause it become more boring to play.
For pve … With all nerf take by no AFK ship who was carrier and super carrier. They die super fast and you need a shitons of people to try insure security. And ESS /DBS was the final blow on that beacause thank to ESS, people could juste have character log off and reconect when they see with an other the bouty going to ESS.
So 0.0 population is falling (outside the delve war). People could spin , it’s a fact. And yes it reach the level of blackout 2.0 in term of content. But this time CCP is happy beacause they 're numebr are good for sub… thank to the actual war in 0.0. After this war (and not dependant of the winner) a lot of player of each side will just stop the game beacause this war is the last content.

CCP forget an important thing : If you enrf economy people will take a lot more time to rebuild, and if you nerf 0.0 you remove interest of war of conquest for economic thing.

There was ever of war of conquest in null? Shocking. Never noticed.

quite pleased to see some salt from null krabs

Yes in the history og eve a lot of war was conquest war.
They disapear beacause CCP equalise 0.0 and nerf jump range (side effect), and get replaced by glass war.
And actually in the norht you have conquest war … but not as large as it was in the past. Beacause the sex appeal of 0.0 is reduce.

You’re last sentence proof you are troll, and you don’t want to analyse situation just troll people. So report.

Nope. War started not because game mechanics. Only because players where bored. It turned to conquest’s war as side effect of the objectives.

Fremen of the north.
Brave in catch (first time).
Fire coalition
WWB I
Goons taking delve

Totaly not war of conquest… and it’s just 3 exemple.

Thank to proof you do’nt know eve history.

Were you involved in any of those yourself?

the simplest answer is usually the correct one.
follow the Benjamin’s, of course they want more plex sells…
CCP is using plex to make more than they make from subscriptions…
just a roundabout way of doing what they promised for years not to do.
Titan pilot in a day or two sound ok with anyone out there?

Whats a PLEX sell for in game for now? If the price of PLEX has dropped in the game then it means CCP has sold more of them. I been saying for the past 5 months that this ore change was so CCP could sell more PLEX. The DEVS at CCP are some real scumbags!

This don’t work that way.

You can’t create ore with PLEX so it’s not related. You could debate about ESS impact on PLEX price. But again, you need to make isk somewhere to exchange PLEX for isk.

If you like so much your conspiracy theories, vote with your wallet. Quit and give it a rest.

It does not matter what the truth is, what matters is what people believe. Its public perception and public perception is enough to destroy a company. What causing the price of PLEX to drop?
