GÇó Ally contracts have fixed length of two weeks
GÇó Allies can not be part of mutual wars GÇô defender cannot hire allies into mutual wars and existing ally contracts are cancelled (with a 24 hour grace period)
GÇó Cap on War Dec cost GÇô it will never have a base price of more than 500 mill regardless of corp/alliance membership (still affected by the number of wars you have declared)
GÇó New UI control for War options in war lists
GÇó Added cost for hiring multiple allies for a war GÇô hiring more than one ally now incur a cost that goes to CONCORD. The cost rises exponentially the more allies are hired into the same war.
GÇó Added new skill GÇô Armor Resistance Phasing, which reduces the cycle time of Reactive Armor Hardeners
Hello mittens is that you :-( /sob shame ... This is pretty sad actually. With these changes CCP is caving into Goonswarm whines and allowing them to wardec smaller entities without practical response. Previously the only way to reach parity in an empire war incoming from a 9000 man alliance would be to allow literally hundreds of allies to pledge their support for free. Now that option is taken off the table. Think it through with this example. 9000 man alliance wardecs a 100 man alliance. It costs them 50m isk per week to get a 8900 pilot advantage. In order to reach parity the defender would need to add 8900 pilots across a 100 or more allies. In this new system the defender would end up paying infinitely more than the attacker to reach any kind of equivilance. Whats happened here is that Mittani and goonswarm have whined and pleaded for these changes on the back of the Honda Accord and (now) Star Fraction precedent and CCP have kneejerked into making Inferno wardec system something of a joke. Instead of encouraging and spreading warfare in Eve these changes will massively limit and restrict them.

Well, seems you broke it and it's being fixed. Isn't that the point of a "destruction test" - to find the weak spots and fix it? They're literally tests to find the breaking point.
I think you can actually claim OP success.
But instead, because you don't like the result, it's waaaaaaa Goons win wwaaaaaaaaaaaa
You beat me to this point. i'm sure if i was seriousposting with jade constantine i would've killed myself first though |

Kinda this. Only this time CCP have intervened to protect the big-boys from the implications and consequences of the Inferno wardec system.
difference being burn jita wasn't a test of "CCP's commitment to emergent gameplay". it was something incredibly different and incredibly simple. are you so blind as to not see it? |

I don't see any downside to null sec alliances with the current war mechanics. Keep adding corps/alliances to the wars. It just makes high sec an increasingly target rich environment for null alliances to roam. lol, nullsec alliances get farmed by hisec wardecs. Its simply the way these things work. Average nullsec pvpers are not very good at fighting when there is any actual interaction with the client beyond a click per minute. This isn't secret knowledge, its simply the way and history of Eve.
i suggest you stop hiding behind the safety of Concord and come to vfk!! |
