Eh.... I'm pretty sure if you took the AVERAGE person living in sov space (and that includes like, what, 40,000 renters?) and compare it to the average lowsec resident, you'd probly find a bit of a difference in player skill.

Sure, some individual corps and alliances have more skills than others based on recruitment criteria. If you're recruiting miners, you're hardly going to get the best PvP group. But no area of space is inherently better than any other, and no matter how good you are, you can always lose.

The argument that skill in lowsec is automatically better than nullsec is lunacy.

Greetings, all!

I just wanted to say that I understand why you, CCP, are trying to make these changes, or at least I think I do. However, I just want to add that perhaps instead of implementing all of these travel changes within the next patch perhaps try implementing one or two of the ideas to see how effective it is. And, ya know, how much it actually disturbs the game flow, play, and player base. I myself live in Null and This patch, to me and my alliance, could spell disaster if implemented all at once. With gradual introduction of these time-consuming travel nerfs, I believe it will be easier to tweak to the desired effects with resultant following patches a week passed the initial deployment.

I propose that you start with limiting light years distance traveled as it concerns Jump Bridges, Cyno-Jumps, etc.

If CCP believes that the "Time-sickness" still needs to be added let it be determined after [you] see the response & reaction to adding a less aggressive nerf as previously mentioned.

Thank you for your time!

You're joking right? So lets say a small power moves into the remote part of a region owned by a strong power. That strong power will have a fully stocked market of high end stuff in their close to highsec hub. They will simply fit up a strong fleet and fly to the weaker small power without supplies and wipe them out. This change doesn't make the dynamic of "small" vs "big" any different at all in a local sense. It just means that powers on one side of the map can't meaningfully interact with powers on the other side of the map.



Because the proposals are to make their game play even more boring than it already is. No one wants to play a boring game. They like playing eve hence the reason they play eve. They like flying a JF hence the reason they fly a JF. Making it substantially less fun is just kinda mean to people who are already having fun.

And some of it is definitely "but this is how we do things now with how we are logistically laid out I don't want to change." But my point is, the change isn't that hard to accomplish logistically, and it won't dramatically reshape null dynamics. It'll just change from being spread out to be highly concentrated and empty elsewhere.



I mean proximity by jump drive not by jump gate. Consider where I live in Catch. E-Y is the closest to highsec by jump drive. But it's actually really far from highsec by gate jumping.

So you're argument seems to fail to understand the two different modes of transportation in eve.

> I see a good oportunity for industry focused characters as well.

See my point about concentrating to a logistically easy system. In that scenario, you're still importing / exporting to Jita. I see no substantial argument that supports this will in any meaningful way impact industry (other than perhaps some inflation for logistically remote nullsec commodities necessary for highsec based production of T2 etc).

ROFL

pages 333, see you @ 444

Low sec pvpers are better individually speaking since they have more fights solo or dual, Null pvpers are better in groups, they have a bigger coordination in operating like that, blobs in 0.0 are more common.

What.. you mean the self serving null carebears that have been telling CCP for the last 3 years that Sov Mechanics were horribly broken.

That Capital Fleets need to die.

That null sec Industry needs to be vastly improved.

That most of null sec is not worth fighting for?

Look, I am not a fan of The Mittani but back in 2011 when he was Chairman of the CSM he was literally screaming at CCP that null sec was horribly broken and look what happened...

Total bull. I've seen plenty of solo and dual fights in null, and plenty of "got tackle bring friends quick!" fights in lowsec. One of the main reasons I stopped doing FW on my alt is that the vast majority of situations were either double stabbed frigates camping plexes or tackle bait with plenty of friends on standby. Not to mention that someone being in null now doesn't mean they've only ever been in null

After listening to the PL chat with EVE-UNI, I wonder how my sov warfare 6-12 months from now is going to look like the Cal-Gal FW warzone over the past 1-2 years.

1. Logistics wins wars.
2. Geography matters.
3. ATTRITION COUNTS.
