Why?


It's HighSec this, NullSec that, wormholes there, but I never get to read anything about lowsec.



Are lowseccers happy?

We are too busy having fights to mention it. You know, actual, engaging combat where you dont sit in an ishtar fleet and press f1.

But yes, I am happy for the most part. I solo roam, bait, and make isk all at once. Why would i not be happy? Lol

Highsec and null ppl are the most vocal (whiny) bunch. WH duders are pretty mild mostly. Unless CCP changes things without saying anything about it. CCP seems to hate 2 things equally. Caldari/missiles, and being transparent with Wormholers(?).

Give Battlecruisers range to fullfil their Anti-Cruiser role - OP SUCCESS

We don't care about SOV... we just pick a nice station and base out of it. If people already live in the station, we hellcamp them until they leave. No HP grinding or convoluted system that takes days to complete.

We don't care about "bad people" hanging around our area... we live with them day in, day out because it is actually impossible to completely get rid of them or keep them out. And since we don't have CONCORD, bubbles, or station lockout mechanisms... we just shrug, adapt accordingly, and keep on truckin.

We don't care too much about nerfs to income sources or industry... many of us have to diversify our incomes because of the unstable nature of the place we live in.

We can log off for a week (or ten) and still have access to our stuff.

We can **** off our CEOs and directors and not fear being abandoned and alone in a now hostile station in the middle of now hostile deep space with no way to escape except through death.

Cause of YARRRRRRRR.

Cause the people who live in low-sec want to be in low-sec, because they find it more "interesting" in terms of gameplay.

I can confirm that my first few forays to lowsec resulted in some combination of ass and wood.

Lowsec seems more endgamey to me than null ever did in terms of people with experience playing well at an individual level. There's a nice spread of vets and newbros with FW in the mix too. I really want to stick an alt into FW to give it a try but the standing penalties seem excessive.

Wouldn't hurt to have a few more medium sized groups around tho. The only problem with things atm is that the larger entities are frenemies. It's wierd not having really bitter adversaries but I suppose there's less need to manufacture a narrative to get people to fight when they move to an area mainly for combat content rather than farming.

If they're not complaining they need to be nerfed.

Are you referring to Faction or Security?

Faction. I've been trying to get Marsha -10 for months, not bothered about that. Sec can be fixed reasonably easily but once you trash your faction standings it looks horrendous to correct. Thinking about it though, I've commited highsec alts to pure gameplay styles mainly by SP choices, so it's not the end of the world. I just resent doing it on combat alts.

The whole faction standings thing is a frustrating mess which should be deleted.

2015: The Year of the Delete Key.

I fully expect CCP Larrikin to visit lowsec soon. He will no doubt disable the F1 button from all solo ships because they are not interacting enough. This will be shortly after he deletes Orbit and Approach from the game, rendering brawling frigates practically useless. But that doesn't matter because it will improve nullsec fleet gameplay by 1.4%.

Nobody talks about lowsec because:

- everybody used to talk about it to death back when it was being killed
- finally dead, faction warfare livened it up a bit but in a different way
- people who thrive there don't want to talk it up because then everybody and their min-maxing brother shows up


Just leave it be.

Bring back DEEEEP Space!
