Exploration was a good way to make isk, high risk with high reward in null. Now it has been

pilot activity, no more interest for belt roaming and fighting over spawns. no more fights over
signatures, everybody will end up flying cov op frigates.

Which is fine because it makes them open for easy ganking via stealth bomber small gun fire. pew pew!


aye, saw your video Big smile

it's kind of cool you can play both sides of that game with the same basic skill plan. hopefully enough players step up so they don't feel like they have to put the red crosses back in.



Hmm the gold rush is over ... so are the plentiful targets/victims. Exploration is still "broken". Not a situation one can be happy with.

if that's true then the market glut should clear eventually and prices should normalise.

you could be right, i've been in providence the two last weekends and i've noticed rather less obvious exploration traffic this weekend. and the people i have found running sites are renters who have backup on hand.

forums.  serious business.

I agree with the op.

The new exploration mechanic changes is a massive step down compared to how exploration was before this so called expansion.

It's actually more of a contraction than an expansion.

The new Data and Relic sites are a waste of time. The loot drops have been nerfed back to the stone age and the amount of isk gained from them doesn't even come close to justifying the amount of time spent doing the mini hack click fest game. The loot spew is a great big slap in the face after spending the time to successfully complete that click fest.

All ships being able to see Cosmic Signatures without even dropping a probe is definitely immersion breaking, not to mention the automatic recall of probes.

There's so many more things that goes against the very core mechanic of this game that it boggles the mind to think CCP actually forced this change on the playerbase.

End rant.

I don't know about low/highsec but I tend to make a shitton of Iskies running relic sites in nullsec.


Maybe I'm weird, but I actually give zero fraks about isk in this game. I joined EVE at a period where tons of stuff was happening to be part of the changes, and then the tweaks to those changes, etc etc.

As long as things get introduced which allow me to logon and say "well, today I'm going to do X from a list of 50 activities" I can turn a blind eye to weird mechanics.

On that note, I however know that a lot of you long term players see a major change happen that messes up a long standing feature and mechanic and get angry. It's understandable, I mean, I'd really like to fly around in Marauders, and even a Machariel; imagine if I just manage to get into them and CCP says somethign extreme like "you know what, those turrets, let's make em missile launchers" well, ok, I'll be in the kitchen, head slamming the fridge for the next hour.

Other then rolling with the punches and pointing out the odd weird stuff, what can we do?


I apparently have no idea what I'm doing.

I for one applaud for change in background sounds In Station's no more amarr tears to interrupt me playing other games while docked doing nothing In. Eve.

Other than that...well...damn I forgotten already "new" "expansion".

You choke behind a smile a fake behind the fear
