Same here.
To achieve what i want to do in Eve, i need the passive income of my RD Agents...
It is now totally broken.
To get more Cores i'm running PASSIVELY RD Agents missions 3h/day.
To get more Cores, i need Tritanium.
To get Tritanium : either :
1) refining 0 meta level stuff i get in running PASSIVELY combat agent mission
2) buying in the market
3) Mining

1) It was just NERFED.
2) Drone Region do not produce anymore Tritanium : price rates are at the 10 years ago commencing game level
3) 10k FEE for each datacore given by the RD agent (half are already payed with Tritanium)
4) PvP people who never invested time in RD production get datacores without FEE (tyvm to confirm CCP...)
5) I'll commencing passively a new miner career, after all, i can adapt...Big smile

WTF ARE YOU DOING CCP ?

If i can't get the same passive income after all i just stated, ill seriously considering leaving (no "have stuff " things ofc...)

I'm sorry, but how is adding PVE content and datacores to FW adding to the PVP experience? So far, I have read or heard from people in FW that they mostly just sit in a enemy site waiting for a timer to give them loot. How is this not passive? People solo PVE the sites and make more than the datacore R&D agents or missions ever gave...for what? To sit in a site by yourself?

Resend the datacores and reduce the payout for NPCs.

Add other players to the mix. Make standings actually matter. I'm running around with a -4.9 Gallente standing. How am I not an enemy to the galltente state. I know people who have -10. They don't necessarily visit gallente space, but shouldn't they be targets as well? For supporting the enemy? Killing npcs during missions like enemy abound? Rather how crimewatch SHOULD work.

[Given LP] = ([Market value of target ship] - [Max. Insurance market value] + [Fitted mods, rigs and subsystem market value] + [Transported items market value]) / 10000


Please take dropped items into consideration in that formula. They should either pay half compared to the destroyed ones, or nothing at all. This is important to prevent exploiting it.

If you're carrying 100,000,000 ISK in loot, the EV of the drop is 50 mil ISK, and the person killing you gets 10,000 LP from it. If you were trying to abuse it, you'd be hard pressed to make more than 50 mil ISK off of 10k LP.



with the ship LP changes, it makes a lot of sense for FW players to keep abnormally high ship costs in the regions that are contested while alt shipping in ships to be put on contracts for either side to purchase. Because it is now in the best interests for both factions to keep market prices high, they will no longer compete for cheap ships for their own militas on the open market. but rather through contracts which are not counted in the LP price index for ships/fittings.

Destroying a Punisher with tech 1 fitting: gained LP = (450k ISK – 312k ISK + 100k ISK + 0) / 10000 = around 24 LP (previous system would have paid 25 LP)

now fit that punisher with a market manipulated module, Republic Fleet Thermic plating est cost 100k isk, set price on Placid market 100 million isk, In heavy sov upgrades system market cost cheaper, it currently costs me (a nonFW player but with good regional faction standings) approx 1 million to place module on the market, with no buy orders or competing modules market price is now 100 million for a cheap module.

Destroying a punisher with tech 1 fitting:gained LP =(450k isk - 312k isk + 100 million isk +0)/1000 = 100,138 LP
(overheat a lowslot mod for a few seconds to encourage the item being destroyed)

Punisher has 4 lowslots, add four of those modules.
now make that module worth one billion, or ten billion ....



Proof CCP does not read the forums.
