I watched the keynote again - this is solely a recruiting tool for null-sec and larger corporations. When they referenced freelance mining and ratting projects they listed ADM as the rationale behind it. And when I paused the video and zoomed in on the projects “ADM” came up over and over.
- Ratting, combat, mining - ADM
- FW - remote war direction
- Insurance - ship SRP
These won’t have any tangible benefits outside of null-sec and to a lesser degree, low-sec. I was trying to figure out how these would work in high-sec or wormhole space, and now I know. They won’t.
It answers the question of why you’d pay for specific tasks you or your corporation members could do on their own. You’d pay for it to bump up the activity in certain systems or regions.
