You often get people complaining about high sec, but this is what would happen if high sec turned null sec overnight.



  • Jita Would get smartbombed into oblivion

  • Miners would cease mining - the cost of items and ship hulls would start to sky rocket


  • Inter-hub trade would dramatically decrease - the cost of items would vary dramatically depending on your location within EVE


  • War decs would be non-existent


  • New players would get massacred


  • People would need to align themselves to one of multiple major blocs in order to remain safe

[/list]

It would be funny, but a mess

What about CONCORD? Will they simply retire?

Or meaby they will become the new NPC pirates that owns New Eden (Oh wait, is this already the case? Shocked)

No, no one is asking to turn high sec into null sec, except the sociopaths that love to kill for the tears, but they are a small problem.
No, the cartels would love high sec to be turned into null sec, so they would suddenly have so many more serfs paying massive tithes to the cartel leaders, who now operate as feudal lords.

What if my wife turned bisexual over night? Makes about as much sense as OP's hypothetical while also being far more entertaining for me.

Careful what you wish for. Last guy that happened to found himself in a situation where his wife and mistress were more excited by each other than by him, and he wound up being a third wheel. Awwwwwkward!

It would be interesting if HI-sec turned null for an hour everyday.

Edit: Or even better, NULL turn to HI.

personally i wouldnt care, as a station trader (right click and sell) i would never have to leave the station plus with 11 jump clones and 19 hour jump window i could probably carry on as normal.

fluid security status now thats something i could get behind. ganking drops status pirate deaths/ pve missions could build it.

small fleet actions to both raise or lower status.

Highsec turning into 'nullsec' already happened. Look up Armageddon Day. For one day, Concord had a day off. The Universe Burned.

If you were there, you'd realize that everyone and everything has it's place & need. One cannot exist without the other (or severely altered)
