We're looking at the economy constantly and looking at our options.
One of the fundamental issues we have is that we're making everyone "better" at making money, so the effect kind of snowballs. Right now we're considering everything form increasing taxes to lowering bounties across the board. |

Switching Incursions from ISK to LP payout... Or tell the Sansha to go home...
Incursions are not a big issue in terms of isk globally. |

Inflation is not a mining buff since it doesn't mean mining is more worth-while.
Someone already posted the numbers, the majority of isk in EVE comes off bounties and if anything, we should be reviewing the current bounties on battleship NPCs. |

You're aware that we're making adjustments to Incursions right? I've never said we didn't need to look at Incursion income in isolation, the point I made was that in terms of money coming into the economy, bounties are a massive issue. I'm not entirely sure why some of you keep insisting that it's either or.
Do Incursions need looking at? Absolutely, that's already been done and is awaiting deployment. Are Incursions the big issue in terms of isk coming into the economy? Not even remotely. |

Are Incursions the big issue in terms of isk coming into the economy? Not even remotely. They are the major change that happened right before the inflation. Bounties didn't change. Level 4s didn't change. Insurance didn't change except for the nerf in dominion. Incursions are killing the traditional lp stores which used to be an isk sink. Incursions are seeding allot of isk directly into the game. Both of these would tend to cause inflation.
No, that's incorrect. The massive jumps we see in terms of isk almost always come when we make adjustments to anomalies. The last change we did was pretty drastically increase the isk floor across the board on anomalies and the isk coming into the economy jumped after that. |

Are Incursions the big issue in terms of isk coming into the economy? Not even remotely. Which I assume what you mean by adjustments are changes to VGs to remove blitzing while boosting assault and HQ income right? Side question when will we see a dev blog about those changes? After fanfest right? And will we have plenty of time to test them on Sisi to make sure there arent any surprises right? Yet thanks for yet again pointing how wrong many are about Incursion Inflation. They just don't get it. In my opinion all they see is rage from Incursions providing an alternative to broken nullsec.
I'll leave the details to the devblog but I'd say there is a chance the changes might be (among other things) exactly what you wrote. |
