Those of us who live in NPC null run the odd angel mission here and there, have one eye on the mission and a bigger eye on local, and there's folks in hi sec running isk farming machines risk free from any hassle?
Don't think so.


this made me lol if you dont make huge isk in null quit now.


There are incursion in lower sec areas.. no one runs them cause you wouldn't be able to trust your own fleet as you all in it for the easy KM.. LolLolLolLolLol and that's why you messing with the carebears cause finally they have a way to make easy isk like all the null corps... your just jealous... Blink


Some of us do run low/null incursions, and get payouts that the highseccers can only dream ofTwisted. No trust issues when the entire fleet is alliancemates or blues.

nice to see NO ACTIVE HIGHSEC INCURSIONS

I find it interesting then that the lowsec nullsec crybabies are complaining. If lowsec and nullsec pays even better as you say, then what are you guys whining about? Highsec incursions would seem to pay the least, and the low/nullsec crybabies are capable of using the same option as the highsec incursioneers do and farm isk from their local incursion. Infact, it's even less risky when the incursion is deep inside your own territorially owned null space. Null already has the potential for extreme amounts of isk, and it sounds like from what you said that you make even more from incursions in low/null sec then the highseccers do.

Thank you for throwing your own "It's the risk vs reward" arguement out the window and exposing yourselves for the self righteous stuck up douschebags you really are.

Clearly, and I hope the people who hadnt realized it by now can see it, you null/low sec crybabies are just bitching that theirs a new way for capsuleers to make isk without putting them in your territory to gank. If it wasnt transparent enough already (which it was) this idiot has just confirmed it. Besides, anyone with half a brain can sit in game and watch how long it takes for the low/null sec incursions to be closed out in the journal. I for one have noticed that while some of the highsec incursions are now gone, the same low/nullsec incursions that we're their a month ago are still ongoing.

I bet you dont keep an eye on local while your running incursions. Anything but a massive comparable fleet would be a waste of ISK and suicidal to even attempt to mess with you guys in nullsec while your running an incursion. It would take a fleet as big or bigger to even become a threat to you guys, and if your that deep into your own territory, you probably would have seen it coming a dozen jumps ago.

At the least your a bunch of tear jerking hipocrits, if not a bunch of spoiled, power tripping golden spooned candy ass tantrum throwing wah-bulances. Sounds to me like the true purpose behind your whining, complaining, and ending highsec incursions is just to keep people from achieving a relatively lower level of income then you do. Excuse me while I go laugh my ass off for a few hours at how your arguement has just gone from flimsy and transparent to less then one dimensional. LOL!

Holy crap Sin Istersly, you must be freaking brain damaged, I mean seriously, did you take a blow to your head as a child?

We are not nullsec players, we are highsec and wormhole dwellers.

Not in the slightest, while it is true that low sec and null sec incursions do offer higher rewards they also come with much more risk. Hi sec incursions on the other hand carry next to no risk, and still have a huge reward.

So I put it to you that it is in fact you who is the self righteous D-bag, also, L2Math.

Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

From what I understand, the issue of site farming bears less impact in lowsec and particularly 0.0.

In lowsec, "farming" the incursion sites before killing the mothership is generally inadvisable due to the supposed 'risk' of interference from pirates or other nasty people over an extended period of time; you want to get in and out of filthy pirate space and back to farming hisec sites with as few PVP related losses as possible. This may or may not change depending on how desperate people become during this so called 'blockade'.

In 0.0, you have a different issue. Let's for argument's sake consider 0.0 space as risk-free as empire - for the denizens that live in a blue territory; the problem isn't about how long you can farm the incursion in this instance, but how often you get a new incursion inside your territory (blue space). Incursions don't stay in the same constelations and there can only be so many at once; this puts a territory imposed limit on how many hours or sites an organisation can complete over any extended period of time. The payout might be a bit higher, but you can't run these things 23/7.

Meanwhile, in hisec, incursioneers are (or should I say 'were') enjoying the ability to farm incursions constantly with no risk for interuption beyond potential traitors in the fleet. BIG difference in long term payout.

Hourly income in incursions should not be affected, rather it should be the length at which such farming can be sustained that needs reconsidering. Whether or not lowsec or 0.0 incursions need a nerf though, is a different topic (this one is about hisec only).

I don't know why but the hisec incursion organisations remind me so much of the 'end-game' players in SWTOR.


To this extent, props to the guys and gals participating in the blockade, you're what EVE is all about Blink

Blocking highsec incursions and thinking all the carebears will move out and do lowsec incursions are NOT gonna happen.
If you are thinking it will procure more pvp for the station huggers in low you are sorely mistaken.

The bears will stay in empire or quit the game as they always had, reducing the eve playerbase..

What are you excactly gaining from blocking the highsec incursions? other than wrecking the game.. i mean, is there a personal gain to this that is actually within the reach of viable?

in a couple of months when its all shut down or youll be tired to run a blockade, then what have you gained?

Implying no actual PvPers have gone to highsec to do incursions.

I got a good level of comprehension, i just didnt want to read 30 pages and make a qualified conclusion like the rest..

im just asking the topic starter a simple question he can not answer publically apparently.

fyi: pvp'ers that have gone to highsec for incursions are carebears, just to clarify your comprehension.

Oh dear. Since I am in a good mood lately I will cut it out for you.
Yes, we are achieving our goals, but we are no where done yet.

Those pilots who once went to lowsec, nullsec or w-space but came to highsec to do incursions are going back because there are no incursions. I spot with my eye many of these in the incursion channels Cool

Since when does anyone need a reason to do whatever they want in EVE? It's all about perspective.

I think this isn't as much about "we want carebears to move to 0.0, derp" as it is "FFS CCP, 600 billion ISK a week from hisec incursion faucets, with no risk?! UNACCEPTABLE! :froth:". Even then it's more likely just to be "for the luls, we want tears".

I'd love to actually get some numbers on how much ISK is being injected into the economy from lowsec and 0.0 incursions though.

Emergent gameplay, where's the problem?

It still seems most of the goals from this are directly whine, the few answers i got point more to the removal of highsec incursions because the low and nullsec people are butthurt over carebears are making isk.

It was the same with missions, anoms ect. ect.

Your answer did not satisfy my question as its just a goal and not what you will have gained from this goal.
If its more presence in low/null, why not say that.. im still saying that its not gonna happen for the bears, which you directing this whole thing against in your first post.

Can i conclude your only gain are low to some movement of previous pvp'ers to null and low and some lulz then?

else feel free to fill up some more arguments as this is such a good beneficial idea for the eve community as you so proclaim.

edit: seeing as good reasons are not excactly raining from the skies, ill give this project about 2 weeks before it dies out due to no direct gain or goal...
Seeing a somewhat recruitment for it already tells me you have a problem getting people for your fleets.

Good reason - it's fun to see the self entitled brat's in BTL Pub et al. cry and whine over the fact that their no-risk ISK printing method is now not viable for the foreseeable duration.

Cause and effect.

Stop assuming things that are incorrect and start posting on it, else feel free to quote me on that.

Only strengthenen my theory on your lack of gain from this, seeing as your only argument are still whine over risk vs reward.
Im only trying to determine how useless this project is, so i can plan when my alt can run highsec incursions again.
If the arguments are as poor as yours, that wont take long luckily.

You really are dense aren't you? Roll For me, as a person, the gain is the fun I get from playing EvE as intended inside the Sandbox.

There doesn't have to be any other gain, the game is here to be fun and that it's being. For me at least.

No, that's called PvP. Happens all the time. You need to get out more.

Quote:
The term griefing, within eve however, is mostly only applied to people who's PRIMARY intention is to disrupt someone elses planned actions. Your causing grief by changing those plans. It's a fairly simple concept, I dont see how your missing it.


Disrupting someone else's planned actions is called "playing the game". I'm a trader, when I buy stuff, my planned action may be to sell it at a 50% mark-up, under the assumption that all other traders in that market have something to gain by not slashing the prices. Nevertheless, it happens all the time (I do it myself if I feel I can gain something in the long run). Again, PvP.

I'm still pretty new to this game, but it is glaringly clear that you are not entitled to any kind of income or activity. You can-mine, someone can steal your stuff. You trade, someone can manipulate the markets or just annihilate your profit margin. You haul, someone can blow up your ship and steal your cargo. You want to PvP, someone can play endless station games. You want to wardec someone, they can hide behind a decshield. You want to farm incursions, someone can kill the mothership as soon as it appears. All working as intended.

PS: ppl who claim to need incursion ISK to PvP are dumb. And mostly lying.
