props to CCP for iterating on these systems much faster than usual. might need a few days to really see how the changes impact gameplay around the ESS and DBS, but nice to know they’re paying attention and willing to make quick changes.
How are you so negative? First you want to cancel Christmas, and now this. Do you need a hug or something? Perhaps a visit from the ghost of Yulai Festivals past?
It’s a completely new system. The chances of getting it exactly right the first time was slim. And from what i hear there was some players gaming the system anyways.
They kind of need to bleed these subs though.
These players only want to perpetuate a broken system.
I wouldnt say it was broken, but not profitable enough for marketing dept. Like with many things recently seeing change.
Gamers will adjust tho. CCP will not be getting much cash from these changes for long.
A healthier game requires that people take on risk for their rewards.
Null bears don’t want any risk for their rewards. They don’t want to even press buttons to get their rewards. They believe the current state of eve’s pve entitles them to afk isk printing.
If the DBS is so bad, they can earn bounties in hi-sec.
But they are so entrenched in their no effort gameplay that their goals are fundamentally incompatible with a healthier game.
CCP kinda needs to let them leave and start again.
Hint: the numbers in the region of November 30th are the one to look at, not the numbers of September
We can see a big decline compared to one month ago
