How about:

Reduce T2 salvage from everything but drones, and increase its chance of dropping from all drones.


How about not having t2 rigs cost double what they currently do.


That would be a function of the drop rate, a knob CCP could adjust.

This, IRC's space has a good reason.

To kill bads.

In seriousness tho, leave your blue clusterfuck of a shitehole and do other stuff, exploring, wh's, other regions, lowsec plexing. Rather than bitching about it.

People like you are why I can never take any proponent of socialism seriously.

Instead of logical arguments, you fling mud at anyone who disagrees with you.

The changes are lazy and lack imagination. It probably took an afternoon or less to hack off the loot tables and commit for testing. Way I see it if nobody says anything people might get a little too comfortable with these changes.

As a side note, CCP's experiment with removing drone poo obviously did what they wanted. Maybe a little TOO much. Compound drone changes and forevergeddon its no wonder barge balancing is in order. PvP is getting a wee bit expensive, the good ol days of 20m battle-cruisers are long gone. Talk crap as much as you want about drones but they kept costs down and promoted conflict. Nobody cared about losing 20 mil battlecruisers. Good incentive for new pilots to give PvP a go. Now people seem to avoid it like the plague because it costs a lot more. We all want more people to PvP right?

CCP doesn't deal in fundamentals, so expecting them to make well thought out changes is like expecting a monkey to write the next Apple operating system.

Nerfing drones across the board sucks, because static DED sites are crap now, and drone missions suck too.

It would help if CCP had someone working on content full-time, but if such a person exists, I don't know who it is. This game should be loaded with hundreds of sites and missions per level/faction.

Tears will be shed and pants will need to be changed all round.

To be honest after the last three years of non-stop botting I'm ok with CCP ignoring you, just like they will after they nerf tech and goonies cry, just like they did after they nerfed supers and the ruskies cried. If you do something enough to warrant a nerf you are going to be ignored awhile, and when it comes to the isk creation machine that was the drone lands you ******* earned it.

Yes, punishing players for CCP design choices is totally the right thing to do. Also, every single drones resident is a botter.

The changes to your region were not lazy, they were INTENTIONAL, CCP got tired of telling you not to bot and watching you flip them the bird so they delivered a swift Chuch Norris style round house directly to your region's balls, until the swelling goes down there is no way for them to make any more changes. But with any luck the swelling will be alleviated "soon".

"Edit I find it hysterical you complain about 20 mil BC's because the only reason they were that cheap was the massive amount of minerals that your region generated until just recently... I wonder if there might be a connection there?

There are a few CCP employees and it seems some are on vacation and some are sick.

That means there are 2-3 left in charge with this game. Unfortunately, they are so bored that they couldn't care less about Drone Region or any other issues.

But they change the Angels NPC ships ! Isn't it exciting ???

I agree. PvE content in the drone regions should be improved, that way IRC will go back to making their ISK in their space so we can farm them.

npc alts have no opinions worth consideration

Honestly i don't think it is all about the isk, the drone region just lacks different things to do. Atm the only real choices are Miner or ratter and there is little excitement in ratting when there is no loot or "good" spawns like hauler or officer to hope for.

If Ccp wants to give us the finger sure do so but dont ruin the gameplay whil doing it

Can't have ultimate balance in EVE regions, it's designed to have good space and bad space, advantages and disadvantages. Unfortunately drone space was classed to have more cons than pro's. Budding Corps can go there to practice building an Empire without the threat of people wanting your space.
