Dont forget wh anoms and npc hauler spawns. Those are still great sources for basic mins. Haulers drop a shitton of trit and wh anoms have thus far been completely unmolested with huge roids of every kind. I know, you could make the haulers instalock and give them a no cooldown dd, and let them scram to 150k. You should probably still clear their loot table too just in case some crafty players figure out how to kill them anyway. As for wh anoms just apply the same buttfuckery you have to null anoms. Make the roids contain ~7m3 so it’s not worth undocking a ship bigger than a venture to mine it all. Hell, you could just repro the venture and get more out of it than some of those roids. Oh and make the trig ore bigger m3 wise and contain even less mins(per m3 of ore) while remaining uncompressible. You should also reduce the recovered mins from reprocessing modules (again) from 50% to ~3%. Just to be sure you’re really covering all the sources of basic mins in a mixture of human blood and feces. /S

If your goal was to actually fix the game’s economy you’d hire the economist back and stop bullshitting.

Honestly, I welcome these changes. Being under a year playing I always found it rediculous that we had so many capitals flying around. with these changes capital production is ground to a slow crawl and maybe might give a chance for other corporations to make their name known in eve.

so as a player that has played this games for years I find the changes okay, but for new players I dont see how this is helping them progress in getting to the bigger ships and putting the time and money into moveing to omega and flying what they want you killing that for them you basicly forcing all eve comunity into PVP,

I personally dont like PVP and want to focus on other things but as usual CCP has ignored what they have been preaching for years - do what you want in eve, No no no you just have to pvp to get to do anyhing,

Good luck keeping paying players, you just inviting more people to bot in the game !!!

well done you clowns

So moon mining was too good and now it’s being nerfed in to the ground to the point of intentionally no longer being profitable to do (the article even mentions breaking even). What is the point of even doing it anymore then?

“Here, go invest billions of isk on something you are never going to make money with”

Yeah, okay CCP. Sure, that will happen. How many hundreds of dev-man-hours went into developing moon drilling only to have us not do it anymore? This is the most brilliant thing I have ever seen. Truly some stable genius crap here.

Excavators is the ones that broke the mining.  
Just remove the Excavators from game.

Actually it wont cost Billions to set up a mining operation, there will soon be 1000’s of mining stations for sale real real cheap.

PS: the ‘break even’ comment points out that people are not losing investment since they have already made up for the costs.

You want a reply on what you are doing? Here’s one. I am quitting even as a NEW player because you have so nerfed the game path I was going to follow as to make it virtually unplayable. I just got my skills to where I will be able to work with an Orca and it is now going to be essentially useless.

Your belt asteroids have so little ore in them as to make it virtually worthless to mine them unless you enjoy shifting rocks every 5 to 10 minutes. You are also going to be forcing so many more people into the belts that it will make trying to find active belts with ore in them even more of a chore than it already is.

You are going to make moon mining pointless to do and completely unprofitable without a substantial increase in the amount of ore produced. I’m already hearing talk of them shutting down ALL of our drills for how useless the moon ores are going to be.

You have essentially wasted the last 1.5 months of my time building towards an industry based player heavy on mining and made my skills pointless to even have.

I wonder if you are quite alright, have you any idea how much ore ita takes tobuild a capital let alone titan to take such ■■■■ as ore haulers spawn into consideration?

Yes it ‘should’ take that long (or even longer) for a person to be able to build a capital ship.

Go look up the interview by Declarations of War with @CCP_Rattati  
He literally implies he would love to see Caps and Supers supply get Rekt by attrition.

So yeah CCP thinks Caps and Super should take a Long Long time to build a single one.

Most people play that game for a full scale fleet fights including capitals and supers etc, if CCP want to stop this it means they are idiots after all

If it takes that long to build a ship it MUST be THAT stronger while now a titan is a piece of ■■■■ that does no damage and a super is equally ■■■■ against a small fleet let alone dread or carrier

not if Caps are meant to be Defensible Center Piece combat platforms, and Supers Command and Support

With a huge amount of Subcaps in various interlocking Roles and formations.

Maybe CCP wants you nullers to start doing asymmetric warfare and Combined arms units instead of lazy ass F1 monkey pushing blob n+1 warfare.

Than a capital should be that much stronger than any subcap as it is that much more difficult to build, while now a capital is useless against lazy ass high sec monkeys that want shiny kills with no brains applied to it
