The bomb has dropped on a friday afternoon in the form of a dev blog<\/a> on the eve online community. You can read the responses<\/a> here on the forum, lots of references to the SWG NGE.<\/p>\n

What\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the problem with the changes posted in the dev blog ? It costs 2bil to fully upgrade a system (yes a single system) in 0.0 and claim sovereignty. How are you ever going to make that system cost effective ? How can a small alliance afford to do this ? Even bigger ones, will be in trouble. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll probably just develop a few key systems and lock off the rest of a constellation for the rest of the people. CVA with their NRDS policy is especially screwed. They don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t make anything from their visitors.<\/p>\n

CCP claimed that the goal of Dominion was to attract more people to 0.0. As I see it now, this will do the exact opposite. And if you think \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcI don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t do 0.0, this won\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t effect me\u00e2\u20ac\u2122, please think again. A lot of materials for T2 etc come from 0.0. <\/p>\n

If people don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t \/ can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t bother with those anymore, markets will plummet and it will effect everybody in the game.<\/p>\n

UPDATE : <\/strong>CCP Soundwave is now trolling<\/strike> posting in the above mentioned thread and says (amongst some other nonsense) As I said, if the costs become an issue, they can always be looked at.<\/em> <\/p>\n

It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be too late. People will have giving up and moved on. Anyone with some common sense can see that these changes are ridiculous.<\/p>\n

Update II:<\/strong> CCP Chronotis posted in the feedback<\/a> thread and it seems CCP is starting to backpaddle already. Which makes you wonder where they pulled the original numbers from in the first place\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 Post nr. 1000<\/a> btw raises some excellent questions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
