I agree with this dude. I think ships in general cost too little in this game. If they were more expensive and harder to get you wouldn't see all this suicide ganking like you do.

Maybe try to think this way. If you want to make other alliances build less titans you rise their making price .OP you are missing point in "killing miners",they kill them to profit not cause they are making show for masses .

doubt and yet the sales prices have only increased...

I wonder who the winner really is - the producers or the buyers.

It is a good time to buy. Just don't be surprised when the bubble pops.

Also, manipulators/hoarders have more to do with the mineral prices than anything, I'd wager. Too much ISK floating around out there.

Whether or not you win the game matters not.  It's if you bought it.

+1 on both there.

Why do you talk about things you have no clue about ? Theories ... pah.

Bullcrap !


There'd be even *more* suicide ganking, because it would inflict *more* tears !


Edit:
Maybe i should expand on this.

A tornado will always be more expensive than a thrasher, hence it'll always pay off
to kill a tornado with two or three thrashers, isk-wise. That's not including his drops.
A gankers' tornado usually drops 8-12 million isk in loot, from the turrets.

Even if thrashers cost 4 million isk each, it still pays off because there's more isk destroyed than used ...
... and if prices of ganking ships went through the roof, people will still find a way to pay them or simply band together.


All in all: Higher ship prices won't reduce ganking ... it'l just make it more fun, because it hurts the victims even more.

I played this game when they first introduced drone regions and even then many thought that it was mistake to let drones drop minerals.

...really?

i'd be more tempted to do it. let's say ship prices double. a catalyst goes from about 1-2m to about 4m?

where as a hulk would go to near 500m+... the isk gap is even bigger.
