This. I haven't done the analysis myself but I know that Tippia understands these things a lot better than I do.

“Fully mined” meaning 23.5/7, and every anomaly sucked dry, presumably?

Sounds reasonably scarce. Smile

Agreed. These changes will help a little, of course, but they'll still leave sov 0.0 pathetically under-resourced to become even partially self sufficient. Going from 3% of the slots of hi-sec to 5% isn't really going to change anything.

And outpost upgrades are still insanely overpriced. Drop them down to the 2-4-6B range so we can actually use them plx.

EDIT: But the extra office space WILL help.

Do you currently have them? No? then probably not. WHs should not be self sustaining for everything, that's been a pretty basic design direction from CCP since they were implemented.

I'm sure that's going to encourage people to mine in low-sec Pirate

Sounds promising though, good to see that our industrialist friends get some love.

Not permanent Ice belts, but add an ice belt to the list of mining anomalies that can spawn. So that we have a small chance of getting one of them from time to time.

Simple, you don't get them.
WH's where never intended to be lived in. That you guys decided otherwise is what some call "emergent" game play. Doesn't mean you should be hold your hand. Actually you're doing fine against what CCP thought was possible.

any fomula or reasoning why some systems in amarr /kahnid got to keep their ice spawns and others were not? and any way to alter those choices?

I would hope that the remaining slots can be made up for through POSes. Sure, they suck right now but with boosts from Surface Installations they'll be a bit better. And then when CCP get around to rebalancing activity slots throughout empire and lowsec, POSes should be better.

if you put frigs (scrambling or otherwise) in forsaken hubs, you will have nerfed the last little bit of good isk making in null sec anoms. The close range battlecruisers that a lot of people use to do them will become un-usable (unless you add drones bays to all the former tier 3s that do't have them, namely the naga).

The frigless forsaken hub is the only anomaly that sub caps can use to match some empire isk making pve techniques (liek incursions and empire DED farming). This seems a big huge mistake as it will only nerf individual pilot isk making. Not fatal, but defineately a serious wound.

A better idea would be scramming cruisers for hubs with like a 35 km scram range. The problem with forsaken hubs is lack of scramming things, not lack of frigs.

Also, nice to see that moons are getting MORE valuable, as the new R64 materials are embedded in moons. Sure, tech itself goes down in value, but it is conceivable, depending on this random seeding of R64 mins, a tech moon might be worth MORE than it is today.
