Win-win for me, I got myself to train logi 5, got used to running in fleets, got to be fairly decent at logi and I got paid for it.

Now I'll just hop back in a WH, lawl

I'm interested to see what CCP does, maybe HQs will be more fun to run ^^

delicious incursion runner tears


You don't get it. The tears are those of the CEO of CCP, who invested a lot of money to let this feature be developed and attract players, and whos investment just lost a lot of value. Not sure, but maybe he does not like grieving his employers as you do love grieving other players. Than maybe we loves to look them in the eyes, when firing them ;) and you both are happy ;)



Yeah I am canceling my account because of incursion Griefing.

I am sure CCP wont care that I pay another company for a year subscription to play their game.

Incursions were designed for players to group up, and COMPETE against each other to fight through and COMPLETE the incursion as quickly as possible.

If some players are instead keeping one of the npc's alive in order to farm the site for isk, that is technically an EXPLOIT of the game mechanics.

A long long time ago people used to farm belt npc's the same way, keep one alive and keep killing the swarms that came in for isk. . . eventually CCP anounced that it was officially an exploit to do this and players could be banned for doing it. Now we have players who are doing the same thing inside incursions. . . who then apparently complain when other players complete the incursion properly.

From an historical stance in EVE, farming an incursion should be a bannable offense. And anyone complaining (like the OP) that they are being interupted from perpetrating this exploit, should adapt or leave the game.

My hat off to those who are simultaneously playing the game properly, eliminating the gain from an obvious corruption of game mechanics, and ridding our space of these nonsensical crybabies.

I saw in another thread that you have a job. Well, now it is also time for you to grow up. Pathetic.

Actually, your whining probably brought another two new players to the game. Some dude showed his friends, during a commercial break in the football game, this thread. They all had a good laugh (at your expense.) Two of them decided to try the game out.

lol, your so right.

I am sure CCP did envision them in a way, so that they are not available 80% of the time.

Guess it is time for them to shut down 0.0 between 00:00 and 20:00 too ;) Than thinking about it, they have already done that, when they allowed people to be sieged in npc stations.

So yeah, your so right

For every account cancelled due to the game being a sandbox, there is one subscribed due to it being a sandbox.

As much as you might think you are hard done by, there are a lot of players who subscribe because of way we can all interact. You seem to be forgetting that at the opposite specturm, people will quit eve if it becomes too soft or turns into Hello Kitty with spaceships. Threats of 700 incursion subscriptions leaving are meaningless if saving them results in 700 subscriptions elsewhere disappearing.

If you are concerned, talk to your CSM rep, run CSM candidates next time (you should have enough people to get someone in), come up with counter mechanics...moaning on the forums will result in nothing.

Dont be such a gimp. No one is 'turning off' features, some PLAYERS are merely completing incursions the way they are meant to be completed.

You dont see a bunch of gimps demanding ccp stop letting players 'turn off' their sovereignty features by exploding their stuff do you?

The problem here isnt that players are exploding the supercarriers at the end of incursions (as intended) the problem is that the feature is being manipulated by other players so it keeps feeding isk (not intended) and then bleating like children when someone else stops them from doing so using totally legitimate tactics and mechanics.


Quoted for thruth, good sir. Wanted to say it myself but you beat me to it.

Sandbox working as intended
