-CCP Affinity How many people will be going back and trying Vanguards after the un-nerf ?
I wouldn't call that "un-nerf" - actual un-nerf is still months away. It doesn't matter if OTAs theoretically pay 9 or 10m when they are impossible to finish and there are no other sites unless you are logged in right after DT. |

That may be comical only to a person who never spent 1-4 hours waiting for a spot in the only HQ or AS fleet running. Because there are no vanguard fleets anymore - at least not for shield ships. |

Incursions weren't changed for years so subscriptions paid by incursion runners were used to develop other content. I believe most of those money was used to develop content for low/null-sec because I didn't hear about massive content patches for hi-sec in years (though I didn't hear about *any* massive content patches for years).
Also I suspect DarthNefarious isn't the only unsubscribed person because incursions were end-game content and a wet dream for many (if not most) hi-sec dwellers and I suspect after Inferno thousands of them lost their hope to get into incursions and "get rich quickly" one day - after months of dull farming of low profit, boring L4s. So there must be hundreds (if not thousands) unsubscribed accounts .
I wouldn't call that "best" news both for CCP (for obvious reasons) and for you as you will receive less content due to CCP's monetary losses related to incursions nerf, unsubscribing players, possible personnel lay-offs (I don't think DUST team will be affected).
This nerf was everyone's massive loss. Even though some players doesn't understand it yet. |

As example of actual amount of money in incursions right now: today I've spent 5 hours total and completed 5 HQ sites (~ 3 hours in fleet, ~ 2 hours waiting for fleet), got 150m.
It's 30mil/hour average - a bit more than income from solo L4 missions, but in 40 pilots fleet killing toughest rats in the game. No wonder whole activity is almost dead despite its "extreme profitability" according to various "well informed" sources.
However this activity became much more social because there is just handful of people left - but they (kind of) know each other, value their reputation and are trying to do their best to keep this small community alive. |
