I've read every post here and most of the people that have posted seem only to have their own interest at heart
Lets have a look at the bigger picture. Incursion Runners, before the patch, made a tonne of Isk and Concord LP's. They plex their account, buy expensive ships and fits, occasionally lose said expensive ships and fits. They also use the Isk to buy their ships in null for pvp etc.
The Null sec PVP player, FINDS expensive mods in anoms and scanned down sites that can take less time than an incursion and earn more Isk, has the ability to mine the expensive and rare ores needed to build ships etc, and enjoys killing well fitted shiney ships
Lets look at this closer. Incursions Die. Moaning Null sec pilots rejoice! Then they realise that nobody is buying their shiney mods they found in a 2 minute site. Nobody is buying the ships they build and they have fewer shiney ships to fight because other people no longer have the Isk to buy them. They lose Isk and struggle to make it back
Now thats what I call cutting your nose off to spite your face isn't it
I enjoy running incursions because it gives me the Isk to do the things in null which I also enjoy doing.It also gives me a break from null sec when I want to take part in a different aspect of the game or help hi sec corpies out. Incursions have boosted the market and have, indirectly, made alot of other pilots plenty of Isk. Pilots who have never set foot in an incursion before. Pilots that make ammo, ships and mods. It's a god way of teaching new players the aspects of flying in a fleet and helps new FCs develop. It gives pirates the opportunity to do what they do best and gank fleets with excellent rewards for doing so. It's a game mechanic with a domino effect. Take it out and a lot of things will go with it.
All of the above are aspects of the game. Everyone has a choice of what aspect they play and how they play it. Note the word GAME. It's about time the eve community stopped moaning and started playing. |
