They made them require just a little more :effort: than reading a guide on the internet and shooting things in the order mentioned within.

Nerfed past the point where anyone wanted to do them for isk anymore. CCP in a nutshell.

Whole bunch of nulsec entities got upset that someone besides them was making money, and got them nerfed. How badly, I'll never know myself, but it went from a huge group thing that people did for the iskies if nothing else to people playing their solo thing again, like before the incursions were implemented. Unfortunately, I am sure that CCP isn't even close to finished to ******* with hisec players in favor of those who make stupid amounts of money for relatively low investments.

They somehow managed to get every freak and creep in the universe in this one game, and then somehow managed to let them take it over, and then they somehow managed to stick us right smack in the middle.

You should get in on it if it's such a low investment

Incursions were mostly done -----Edit-----ISD Tyrozan-----, they are basically the only people who care about ISK/hr in a game.

Now these -----Edit-----ISD Tyrozan-----hisec missions.

Yeah, I actually thought there were always tons of L4 botters in highsec...

Easy ISK faucet was removed, j4g went back to L4s in highsec for their comfy, risk-free, mind-numbingly boring isk generation.

CCP killed the NULL/LO sec Incursion communties right off the bat wih thier efed up nerf. Hi SEC communites are decimated to the point I doubt they will not be viable soon. DEV's responce was maybe we went to far some lip service at first then when no one procalimed thier awesomeness just clamded up and the silence is deafening

I suppose all those "we do it for the group content added value" excuses where just that: excuses.

i think they went to far really, all they had to do to balance incursions really was nerf the isk payout from all vg's and maybe get rid of the NCN or at least cruiser only/BS only gate requirements in assaults. HQ's werent insanely hard but they still took time, upwards of 30mins for a 30m payout, 1m per minute. With eternal hulkageddon raging im almost mining 1m per minute worth of crappy pyroxeres.

I suppose adding random spawns would help but not having them set to "MUST KILL for payment". Simple solution to prevent them just being tanked all the time is to have random spawns include possible scrammer ships and stuff, endless options that didnt involved deleting incursions and recoding them from the floor up.

VG's was where most of the stupid isk/hr rates and the flood of LP came from. If you ever looked through the lists of top 10 LP winners NONE of them were the guys who routinely flew Assaults/HQ's. I flew assaults/HQ's for about 4 months or something, made about 1.2m LP. The VG spammers were always making 600k+ per incursion spawn. Dont break me break VG's...

You are either meta-trolling at a level I do not understand or a J4G

No the "Incursion Community" really believed that line with all their being.

Honest.

If you don't have a Mach though, please don't bother. They're doing group content added value here.

The Incursion Community couldnt stand any longer DarthNefarius within their ranks, so they moved into WHs and over to the WH forum asking stupid questions and getting angry when you tell them WHs need .:effort:.

Looks like the 'communities' doing them were built on greed only.
