A terrible thing in fact.<br /><br />Eve is dying but not by the hands of the players directly. CCP's make up is changing and unless they change all the game mechanics to allow for more interactive and interesting game play, Eve will actually die, or become so bland in the lack of corporation identity everyone may as well be in the same corporation.<br /><br />If people want to play an MMO they shouldn't complain when they have to interact with other people. If you don't want to interact with other people at any level whatsoever play a single player game.<br />Sidrathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07120481116949387059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-19291907233590474272014-11-03T16:59:06.314+00:002014-11-03T16:59:06.314+00:00Im Veers Belvar after all, James 315 followed my o...Im Veers Belvar after all, James 315 followed my order quickly.Veers Belvarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-50254673914690325682014-11-03T16:57:17.025+00:002014-11-03T16:57:17.025+00:00False, No, irrelevant, nonsense, idiot.

Therefore, the difference between player-created safety and mechanical safety means everything. Thats pretty much a founding principle of this game, that many of the 'HI SEC SHOULD BE 100% SAFE BECAUSE WAAAAH!' crowd cant seem to wrap their head around. <br /><br />One region being 'safe' (until the roaming HAC fleet comes in and starts kicking shit over) does not immediately mean the others are. And again, that safety must be enforced no matter where it is. But if your blanket statement is true, I'm sure dropping those mining drones and blasting rocks in HED or M-O would be totally safe. It is sov null, after all. <br /><br />Hi sec is only dangerous if you're complacent. The omnipresent navies and CONCORD tend to keep it that way with no player interaction whatsoever. The potential danger in sov null is significantly greater than anything possible in hi sec, as I'm sure the members of SOLAR discovered when they lost their space and all their assets were deadzoned in an inaccessible station, a scenario not even remotely possible in hi sec. <br /><br />All those hi sec dangers (save for the awox) dont exist in null because, obviously, they arent necessary. And only a danger in hi sec if you arent paying attention or assume the mechanics of the game and your lack of interaction will keep you safe. Many PvE'rs in null actually know which end of the blaster its better to be behind, and dont just shoot red crosses either (hence increasing that player-created safety, which again, can be tenuous at best). But if we're going to use anecdotes, in all the time I spent saving damsels, zapping plagio, or running my orca into Jita I never once was ganked or awoxxed. I cant recall ever losing a mining vessel to a war dec either in almost 6 years of playing. So by my actions alone, hi sec was 100% safe to me when I wanted it to be. Fancy that. <br /><br />But please do remove mining from sov null. Seeing the hi sec bear legions cry out at the complete lack of ABC minerals would be rather amusing to me, and would make the hole crowd filthy rich.<br /><br />-EasyKillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-55217324274727521432014-11-02T20:35:14.401+00:002014-11-02T20:35:14.401+00:00Ehh?

But, to the extent that you want to make risk/reward the relevant metric, then it is immaterial who created the risks or rewards, all that matters is the net net.

Players also created the dangers of highsec - suicide ganking/awoxxing/wardeccing/suspect baiting.<br /><br />The fact is that if you focus on actual danger highsec is much more dangerous than sov null, and per your logic should have much higher rewards. Whether that danger is CCP created or player created, the fact remains that sov null is much, much safer, and that is all the line PvE player cares about.<br /><br />Maybe the best bet would be to just remove all mining and ratting and sov null to account for the excessive safety.Veers Belvarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-54976315953167306852014-11-02T18:49:14.190+00:002014-11-02T18:49:14.190+00:00The failure of such a statement lies in that the s...The failure of such a statement lies in that the safety of null SOV was earned, not given via mechanics. Yes, it can be safer in deep blue territory (for now, at least), but its not like that environment was provided by CCP. That safety is also maintained 23.5/7. Otherwise, it evaporates in a flash of laz0rs and missile contrails. And there wouldnt be any cries to CCP about how that was unfair. <br /><br />I vote for removing the +5% and 10% variants of ore from hi sec belts for starters, and reducing incursion payouts (seeing as I use this for my income stream personally, this isn't a personally beneficial statement). Oh, lets crank up that NPC tax to 25% while we're at it, just for shits-n-giggs. <br /><br />Granted, you could remove everything but level 1 missions and all ores but veldspar and that still wouldnt drive many of the bears out of their cozy homes, but it would amplify the differences between the sec levels. Hopefully the coming changes for SOV occupancy do focus on an a bottom-up income dynamic and fix a lot of the issues we have now. <br /><br />-EasyKillAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-60100000906497351472014-11-02T18:29:51.244+00:002014-11-02T18:29:51.244+00:00no, dumb**** you are complaining about highsec bei...no, dumb**** you are complaining about highsec being too safe, and calling for income nerfs, but ignoring the fact that sov null is MASSIVELY SAFER.
