I'm interested to know what is wrong with Data Cores to have them changed?
I'm a solo player and I just invested a good amount of time grinidng standings and getting 4 level 4 research agents so I could try some invention. This was a major time sink for me to pull this off and there isn't much to help you get it setup. Now a few months later I find out that all this time I invested is now crap.
So am I to understand now that all that time I wasted the research point I was planing to do invention for is beint taken away and given to faction warfare?
Is there any CSM to coment on this change? Honestly if there is going to be data core changes there should be faction data cores to help build faction items intead of taking t2 invention away from us solo players. Come on! Really what is wrong with the current system? A player has to invest alot of time to be able to access the RP so whats wrong with it? You are paying for a subscription while your gaining RP so your not getting anything for free here? |

If I was in a big alliance like goon I wouldn't mind posting with my main. Please stay on topic Mr Goon. This is a big game I'm sure most people have the same questions and plus the admins and CCP can see the address anyways and they are the ones that count in the end when supporting the players.
PS. It's not my first post btw please do a search. |

Goons don't really care much about datacores, so it's not like anyone minds much that you want your passive income to not be nerfed. Those who cannot adapt become victims of Evolugalbugaslugakjlwsdhvbzxd |

If Test Server is accurate, ignore the hype.
10K ISK to have your RP converted to datacores won't make any difference. That's the current tax they have for it.
Adding them to FW is DOA because the LP is better spent on ships. |

I agree with better spent LP, or ammo and implants.
But what about the Research points per day? So you get less RP per day and it cost twice as much for datacores. I don't mind a little tax. |

I think of Data Cores like Cell phones, it takes time to create them and it's passive income onces your sources is setup. If more cell phone companies are in business thats less profit for you. What about comcast or verizon, onces everything you worked so hard for is setup you get to charge a small subscription fee for very little work.
I don't see comcast at my house everyday running a mission from me to receive my monthly money.
Plus your data cores are meaning less unless they are turned into something useful anyway,
So besides people being upset that data cores are not like missions or incursions what is the real problem? |

Test server won't really allow us to project that change. All datacores cost 100 RP there. It isn't a state of change, it's a flat line used on Test server. Even datacores that cost 150 RP cost 100 on test and I saw no change in the RP daily. |

I'm sure Comcast just sit on their asses all day and just passively earn money. No support, no maintenance, no upgrades, no management. All of their thousands of employees get paid every month for having set up some towers years ago, and nowadays they just play solitaire all day.

The problem here is that you think you are somehow special compared to the rest of us. In order to prove this fact, you must unsub all your accounts in protest and make it perfectly clear to CCP in the exit interview webform why you are doing so. Check back every few months and see if CCP has reversed their changes. You'll find out pretty quickly just how important your bleating is. +1 in local |

Im kinda curious... To make money from Datacores you have to get them then take them somewhere to then sell to someone else, correct?
Kinda like how the PI stuff gathers but you have to collect it and bring it to a hub/market/w/e to then sell it?
How is that passive income? Wouldnt true passive income be like if instead of getting items/fuel from the PI buildings they randomly ticked an amount of ISK directly into your wallet? http://www.bioone.org/doi/abs/10.2317/JKES0811.17.1 Bees That Drink Human Tears -- ITS SCIENCE!!! |

PI is not done at your leisure, when you feel like it once a month. You will make very little isk that way. To make real profit, it requires a lot of planning, maintenance every few days, and most importantly, ACTUALLY UNDOCKING.

ugh... I never said it was
read it again
I was comparing data cores to PI and then asking "HOW is that passive?"
IE saying its not
then going on to ask if passive Isk wouldnt actually be: "instead of getting items/fuel from the PI buildings they randomly ticked an amount of ISK directly into your wallet?"
Man ppl need reading comprehension here
Not just knee jerk reacting "PI = passive?? OMG I MUST POAST"

"Get stuff, move stuff, sell stuff" can be used to describe most pve. Datacore farming requires far less interaction than other pve, to the point where income is not lost for lack of diligence. That goes goes against the spirit of Eve.
It is as close as possible to "true passive" isk that you point out, which is why people complain about it so much. It's true that passiveness is a sliding scale, but datacore farming is out of whack with all other "passive" activities.

Yeah but PI i what 12 days of training? Low bar for entry where as data cores requires a large commitment to be able to access then you still have to do stuff to even make that money. Sounds like it belongs in Eve. I still need to gather all the data cores and take them to whatever base of operations I have to be able to put the data cores to good use. Some lazy people they just sell them out right and miss out on making anything are just as bad as the mission runner that don't sell there loot correctly. |
