Incursion party held - and no one shows up?

I noticed that M2 has an Incursion that no one appears to be engaging. What happens in Incursion lore if it goes unchallenged? And also, what really happens in the game?

nothing. Only thing that happens is rat bounties are cut in half. and all systems lose the ability to put up cynos.

In effect. incursions nerf the following.

All resists reduced by 50%
all bounties reduced by 50%
all damage reduced by 50%

You cannot light cynos or use jump bridges as all systems are cyno jammed.

Why Can't I have a picture signature.

Also please support graphical immersion, bring back the art that brought people to EvE online originaly.

Does the Incursion never end on it own?

Yes, after approximately a week. When you see an incursion in the "Withdrawing" stage it has about a day or so left before it despawns. Then a new one will spawn within a few days somewhere else in the same security space.

I always thoguht it would be better if Sansha stayed there indefinitely. While continuing to invade more space. Eventually, anyone who wanted or needed that 0.0 space would have to kill off the incursion.

That focuses large numbers of people into the area.. Perhaps this same group of people could be prey for another group.

A large allliance might choose to protect merc carebears to take care of the situation. That same alliance might choose to stomp on them.

I guess the difference between Incursion and Invasion.

Thanks to all for the info.

Incursions are foothold scenarios to establish a beach head for the invasion!

I can't believe people are not showing up for Incursions as mindless repitition to pad the wallet! REALLY? You mean the Incursion farmers who keep the action to themselves have died from boredom? Wouldn't be the FIRST time.

The right to free speech doesn't automatically carry with it the right to be taken seriously.

The region should become 0.0 sansha nation space Pirate

Stop the STATIC!


Lets push CCP to create a more Dynamic universe, starting with .....Incursions!

Instead of having them end on their own. Make them dynamic, taking more and more control of the constellation as time passes if they are not opposed. Take the interference to new levels. Sancha rats everywhere, contellation nerfs get worse. Sansha take control of the stations and start charging outrageous fees. Sansha Rats ganking the undock. Cool


This would be the first step to making Eve a real "Sandbox".
