1 minute later, I did not open the letter. – _3 minutes later:_ Where are we supposed to buy a ticket to harass the author by making false claims that nobody understands him and other gaslighting while spying on him ? ---

> [@Dictateur\_Imperator](#): > > b)Futur update goal by CCP: > The update to end the starvation and start redistribution has multiple goals : Give an interest to each part of space, make a dynamic economy on resources and increase number of new players, beau cause they will be able to provide resources people in other parts of space will need. > We could understand it gives a role to HS/LS/0.0 and WH (Yes for WH actually it gives the role of space harder to live, to avoid people totally live inside). > **The dynamic economy of resources we need to see it as meta level: -If too many people farm in HS it will decrease HS mineral price, so people will move to other parts of space**. And the same will happen with 0.0 and LS. So your economy is driven by economy and you need to “control” territory all across the galaxy to be self-sufisant, or you need to trade. > Increase of new players (retention): By making some ore only in HS the main goal is to make some new player who doesn’t want to play a lot and just stay in HS could have nice income by mining to extract tritanium who will not be in concurrence with 0.0 miners who have more powerful ships to extract it. I read to this part, as I disagree with this part, didn’t bother to read any further. CCP have tried in the past to spread people out, mission agents problem was those close to the borders of low-sec started giving you low-sec missions. Players moved away from those agents. Those that are happy to go into low-sec, WHs etc already do. Those that remain in high-sec remain there because that’s where they want to be. You won’t force them out of high-sec into low-sec, null or anywhere else if they don’t want to go. You will just force them out of the game. Seems to me it’ll just be history repeating itself. Edit: If this was RL you could force people to go where they don’t want to go or make it so they have to go in order to be able to afford to live. But this is a game and as such you can’t force people to do things they don’t want to do. ---

Wrong assumption. As i have already said in comment (and if you haven’t read the text ) : I don’t mine. CCP haven’t nerf my incomme really (and it’s a too marginal gameplay, so unless CCP want to adress a very specific gameplay in theory i will not be affect by change for upcoming years so …). The post is more about how CCP make update, and why they make mistake on outcome prediction. And why this kinf of fail make we loose player. If you read it and think it’s farmer tears, you are totally wrong, i just use the next update as exemple. ---

Link to their outcome prediction? You know, this isn’t a live economy where people lose jobs and starve to death if thing change. This is a game and the most important aspect of it is that things are lead to interesting gameplay overall and not just for a nishe of farmers and wanabe space empire warlords. ---

Ho well better: > **[Resource Distribution Update | EVE Online](https://www.eveonline.com/article/qh7pp7/resource-distribution-update)** > > Shortage Phase Step 4, Redistribution Phase Step 1 They’re devblog have a short summary to of the outcome. so i will just quote : More movement in Lowsec - and potentially more destruction Increase of mining ship losses More market transactions for ores/minerals Mineral income from refining items to increase Prices of minerals to change So yes they assume people will go make mining in other space like LS. ---
