iP0D	Posted - 2010.11.12 16:33:00 - [31] I hope the lead gamedesigner is measuring and calculating to run projections on how much (delayed) ISK will be put in to EVE through Incursions and its PVE focus, in light of so much ISK floating around even in such a limited snapshot. Didn't that CSM meeting logs mention the state of the EVE economy and the amount of ISK going round as well? Sure, ships will be lost in Incursions, but that'll hardly of impact over time. An overflow of ISK, graphs on how ISK supply increases to grow, and we get yet another bunch of stuff which injects even more ISK without really compensating for gamedesign. One other thing. Natural evolution from highsec via lowsec to nullsec? Wth? Has anyone ever given thought to why the lolriftertackle fleets of the past are a thing of the past, now with more probing cloaking dictors. Same for dependancies between accounts as well as cahracters. That last paragraph on page 25 .. I am sorry, but it is a deduction or set of assumptions which just makes zero sense looking at it as a player.

CCP Diagoras C C P Alliance	Posted - 2010.11.12 16:38:00 - [33] Regarding high sec and low sec being grouped together as empire in the population distribution, I will change that in the next QEN. _______________ CCP Diagoras Research and Statistics

Awesome \o/ (and that will be the standard going forward, one would hope). Assuming you have those numbers now though (and I can't imagine you don't), care to share them? Life In Low Sec
Dragon Greg	Posted - 2010.11.12 16:53:00 - [35] Originally by: CCP Diagoras Regarding high sec and low sec being grouped together as empire in the population distribution, I will change that in the next QEN. Hehe. I bet it will then show an awesome population increase in reference to a divide previously not corrected for because of Incursions But serious.
Amy Garzan Gallente The Warp Rats	Posted - 2010.11.12 17:10:00 - [36] Edited by: Amy Garzan on 12/11/2010 17:12:16 Woot QER! Keep up the good work! I think most important stuff has been said so I wont repeat it. Def would love to see some PI reporting but understood on wanting hard data vs time for a report. Also would like to see more info on Starbases both in null, wormholes, and empire. Deployed, destroyed, types, modules, deployed, etc. Quote: Primae 4,576 People actually fly it?!? -------------------------------------------------- 101010 The Answer to Life, The Universe, and Everything
Locin WeEda Gallente Red Frog Investments	Posted - 2010.11.12 17:11:00 - [37] I may be biased, but would it be possible to get some statistics on the amount of courier contracts being done in Eve? Some ideas: amount of public vs private courier contracts completed amount of completed vs failed contracts high sec vs low sec vs 0.0 contracts volume distribution of courier contracts collateral distribution of courier contracts Distribution of trip distances of courier contracts regional differences in amount of courier contracts originating and ending in particular regions.

Takseen	Posted - 2010.11.12 18:25:00 - [40] Edited by: Takseen on 12/11/2010 18:26:03 Originally by: Mynxee And yet now we have another PvE feature coming that will add more ISK to the economy. I wonder if it is assumed ships lost in the attempt to put down an Incursion are going to be a sufficient ISK sink to offset that? I wouldn't be so sure its an extra ISK faucet. http://cdn1.eveonline.com/community/devblog/2010/Incursion_journal_encounterreport.jpg shows rewards of 25 million ISK per player, and one of the posters on the Test Server forum mentioned spending 2 hours clearing a similar site. That's considerably less than those players would get by shooting up Sanctums or L4 missions. If Incursion sites are worth doing at all, it'll be because of exclusive Concord LP rewards. If its anything like the other LP stores, it'll act as a considerable ISK sink.

Venkul Mul Gallente	Posted - 2010.11.12 18:26:00 - [41] Originally by: CCP Diagoras Originally by: Venkul Mul 2) Please, give us separate lists for ships in use: combat and non combat. I've divided them for you. Ships in combat classes, top 10 flown at the time of the snapshot: Drake16,639 Kestrel11,102 Rifter10,358 Hurricane7,565 Catalyst7,028 Raven6,910 Condor6,762 Probe6,607 Cormorant6,558 Executioner6,176 Ships in non-combat classes, top 10 being flown at the time: Hulk17,195 Bestower8,204 Retriever7,940 Badger Mark II7,857 Orca6,907 Iteron Mark V5,688 Mammoth5,140 Mackinaw5,084 Primae4,576 Badger3,846 Thank you. Now I can aptly whine about how far the Gallente ships have fallen. Whaa , only the catalyst in the first ten combat ships.
Takseen	Posted - 2010.11.12 18:39:00 - [42] Originally by: Venkul Mul Thank you. Now I can aptly whine about how far the Gallente ships have fallen. Whaa , only the catalyst in the first ten combat ships. Considering how often the Catalyst gets used as a salvager, I'd argue for it to be listed in the non-combat ships section.
Venkul Mul Gallente	Posted - 2010.11.12 18:41:00 - [43] Originally by: Mynxee Why do you lump low and high sec population into one "Empire" number? I want to see them broken out as separate numbers. Also, I'm not very savvy regarding balancing of ISK sinks/faucets, but: Quote: QEN3, Figure 5: The graph shows the development of bounty prize payouts and the percentage change in each quarter. In only a year the bounty payout increased by 64%, pushing the money supply further up. Quote: Hilmar, page 4, October CSM Meeting Minutes: "The EVE economy has been mismanaged in the past according to Hilmar and as it stands now there is too much money in the system, thus all future changes to it have to be done in a careful and considerate manner." And yet now we have another PvE feature coming that will add more ISK to the economy. I wonder if it is assumed ships lost in the attempt to put down an Incursion are going to be a sufficient ISK sink to offset that? If well balanced it will add little isk to the economy. 1) if a constellation is invaded 50% of the bounties are taken as "war tax", so it mean a net drop in bounties for the 0.0 systems where you don't have the secondary isk intake created by the mission payout (not taxed AFAIK) and introduce more LP (if you look, LP conversion is one of the biggest isk sinks). Hopefully the ratio between LP and isk in the rewards will be near enough to the ratio of the isk you should use to convert the LP to items in the Loyalty store, so removing most of the injected isk. 2) In high sec a percentage of the mission runners will convert to Sansha hunters, exchanging the mission+bounties rewards for the site completion rewards. As only 1 group will get the site completion rewards the isk intake will be (probably) reduced against the isk intake in missions. 3) ship losse are not isk sink!!!
Gil Danastre Amarr 5TH Combat Training Squadron	Posted - 2010.11.12 18:44:00 - [44] There's nearly double the number of supercarriers than there are dreadnoughts . And there's only ~300 more dreads active in the game than titans. Maybe we soon need to start a list of dread pilots, as they seem to be getting pretty rare? Could this be an indicator that dreads need to be looked at, as their role seems to have been nearly entirely supplanted by SC's? save for shooting POS's I guess.

Could this be an indicator that dreads need to be looked at, as their role seems to have been nearly entirely supplanted by SC's? save for shooting POS's I guess. Also, close to half of all isk in the game is on inactive accounts. macro farmers that got banned? This is an indicator that Super Carriers and Titans need to be looked at more than Dreadnoughts. The reason why you don't see Dreadnoughts in widespread use comes down to three things. Fighter Bombers evaporate standard capital ships Super Carriers can cause the majority of dreadnought shots to miss simply by moving Drones continue to shoot targets even in heavily loaded solar systems long after modules stop being responsive.
Mynxee	Posted - 2010.11.12 19:07:00 - [46] Originally by: Venkul Mul 3) ship losse are not isk sink!!! There's a reason I'm not the one keeping the joint checking account balanced in RL Thanks to you and Takseen for the insights. Much appreciated. Life In Low Sec
Illwill Bill Svea Rike Controlled Chaos	Posted - 2010.11.12 19:41:00 - [47] Nice one, thanks! Originally by: CCP Navigator Great story but you probably want this in CAOD so feel free to post there with your main.
Miraqelle	Posted - 2010.11.12 19:50:00 - [48] One small "mistake" in table 5 (population growth of areas). The difference between Q2 and Q3 empire was a loss of 22,069 pilots, but the growth of the other two areas was far less than the 22k loss. This means there has been a loss of players overall, which skews the numbers because they are given as "percent of total."
Abdiel Kavash Caldari Paladin Order Fidelas Constans	Posted - 2010.11.12 20:03:00 - [49] One thing I'd like to see are stats on numbers / ship types / kills / losses / ISK / titans / anything else you can come up with, based on the current EVE political blocks. Something like evenews24 did a while ago here, but with moar dataz! ___________

This means there has been a loss of players overall, which skews the numbers because they are given as "percent of total." Yeah, and a -.48% "growth" of pilots in Amarr was attributed to Amarr beating out Rens for 2nd place in population at the time of the snapshot. However, Amarr starting with the letter "A" versus "R" seemed the more likely reason. ___________________________________

EdwardNardella Capital Construction Research	Posted - 2010.11.12 22:19:00 - [55] Originally by: Lucinus Carr Also, what the heck happened that caused the sudden plummet in subscriptions? Originally by: QEN Total number of subscriber accounts from May 2003 through September 2010. The expansion spike is over and we are seeing the 30-day average fuctuate at 330,000 subscribers. With the usual expansion cycle and increased winter activity, we can expect another spike before the end of the year. CCRES is recruiting pilots who want to live in WSpace/Wormholes.

ceaon	Posted - 2010.11.12 23:45:00 - [57] wait a minute CCP wtf is this bull** you almost show the same data on QEN Q2 and QEN Q3 wtf is this show data from 1 september 2010 Originally by:** CCP Adida The male thread was locked because the discussion turned into transsexuals and man boobs.
Zendoren Aktaeon Industries	Posted - 2010.11.13 01:17:00 - [58] I'm interested in seeing the effect of player produced star base fuel (introduction of PI) on star bases and the possible profitability gap between fuel cost and moon goo in the Q4 release! My suspicion is that with the rise of fuel costs most people have abandoned their POSes or took them down.

And that the space between each of the listed dates below covers TWO** full quarters (a.k.a. "half a year") ? "Q3 2010" starts on 1st of July 2010, exactly where the vertical red line is. That data _IS_ the data up to around somewhere in September 2010. _ Beginner's ISK making guide \| Manufacturer's helper \| All about reacting _
