Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Wouldn't be better to wait till one change takes effect then change another thing. I simply not beleive that this change will effect isotope usage that much, because ppl will put up other towers in high sec, maybe not for runing research or manufacturing jobs, but for run compression modules for their miners. Even that, the demand of isotopes already pushed the prices up, because that well planned. This going to skyrocket it.


After CCP nerfed ice mining at all with limits (witch not definetly bad), then you expect with the summer changes to force ppl to build up industry and market in 0.0 you instantly hit it with heavily increasing the transporting costs. You should know that 0.0 regions don't have everything in local to run any decent manufacturing, build T2 or just live there, you have to import several materials for example 3 of 4 isotopes usually. Regions has limited resources, some kind of moons are not exist in several regions.


Its just simply makes the newbros life harder, market more expensive and industry less profitable in 0.0.



If its about nerfing force projections, then some other ideas would be much better then this. Simply reduce jump ranges or give a cooldown to jump drives, but this is only impact prices and eve slowly forced to a hyperinflation when lot of ppl just get off and go play something else. Changing shipbalance can make a few bad nights for some ppl, but changing the economy to wrong way, can collapse the game.

Actually agree with MissBolyai, at this point i have no idea what is the motivation of this announcement.


But we will have shiny skins, yaaay... -.-

Wow, where did all that useful data go?
I wasn't done copying it into Excel :(

Stimulating Iso and Competitiveness:
Reduce the Heavy water and LO output of Dark Glitter (more profitable than Ore). No one mines the Isotope ore in null BECAUSE IT IS CHEAP.



"Although we don't expect this change to significantly impact behavior around jump drive power projection, it should at least provide a small incentive change through higher costs for moving huge capital fleets often."

No, it wont. Not at all. It will hurt smaller groups but larger ones wont give a ****. If they are moving capitals then they should expect to lose one or two. that is EVERYTHING compared to the cost of moving them.

Literally stop nerfing every nice thing in the game. making it harder for players to make isk, while trying to drive up the cost of fuel. Instead of nerfing existing mechanics, why not just add new content? We are getting tired of the good things in this game being taken away one patch at a time.

so this change is geared toward making Jump freighters more expensive too use?

will this small price change stop them coming too jita?

is this also a slight cost nerf to Black ops?

and do you have any plans on actually dealing with power projection on an actual large scale?

Perfect. Give this man a job

That the biggest ships in the game are also the fastest, and that moving around large fleets without taking the time or effort to use gates is basically free.

There are many corps that use bridging as a replacement for roaming. You just autopilot your bait around, and when you hear shield alarm you have everyone tab back to eve, and light the cyno. Its promoting mostly afk gameplay, and reduces the risk with moving fleets dramatically.

Damn you must really really REALLY want null-sec to keep their industry local huh?

this was added in at some point:
"The storage volume of jump bridge starbase structures will be increased by 50% since Ozone volume won't be changing."

Oh, hey, good eye. I didn't notice that. My concern is withdrawn!
