Hello.
My prediction: Suddenly EVE becomes much more fun, and a better game in general.
Bots are no longer worthwhile as they make easy targets for PvPers.
The EVE economy becomes dominated by intelligent humans, not machines or "bot aspirant" grinders.
Due to the rapid deflation of the market, low and nullsec players find it much easier to use ingame methods to make ISK
(as their main competition, the botting/multiboxing afk/semi afk hisec players' advantage has been nullified.)
Solo and small gang pvp can now be found in abundance as there are targets and organisations of varying sizes everywhere.
Politics and the metagame get a lot deeper as even PvE focused gamers would have to consider how other players affect their gameplay.
What are your thoughts on what would happen if CCP finally nerfed hisec? |

Actually TharOkha what he's saying about RvB seems rather likely.
Also, don't forget the station game wardec campers.
Their style of PvP is imo not that fun, and hisec mechanics are an important part of why it works so well.
Suicide ganking also has relatively low competitiveness. Most suicide ganks are one sided engagements where the victim cannot really defend themselves. |

Hold on a minute guys, I'm getting a lot of replies about how the hisec PvE population will quit.
To me, this doesn't make much sense. There are many other games with a much more focused, sophisticated PVE experience.
Why would many PvE gamers play a game that didn't have much PvE content? |

They're both important, but I wouldn't say being nice is more so.
Unless the lack of said entity's niceness lead to the destruction of intelligence, but then we're still considering the preservation and cultivation of intelligence (and of course other things like knowledge) the primary goals.
Intelligence is darn interesting, I'd say it's worth a lot. |

Hey Anslo!
I once lost 100m to an impersonator of yours (and by this I mean I'm a fan, cause I agreed to loan someone I thought was you ISK XD)
Of course after filing petition I got the ISK back ^^.
What are your thoughts on whether hisec should be nerfed? |

When I write a script to record isk per hour they say the data sample isn't large enough.
When I run anomalies in wormholes they say it isn't sustainable.
They had some bullshit excuse why I wasn't making as much money doing Incursions, but it was pre nerf and now there's some other bullshit reason.
When I rat in low/null I cant make that much because people can show up, therefore not sustainable...
It's the internet, people talk so much **** its unreal. RL example real quick. I used to live in Phoenix, AZ and race radio controlled cars, electric ones with electronic speed controls. I used to put a computer fan on the speed control's heat sink to keep the temp low enough to keep the thermal protection circuit from activating. I got told by literally hundreds of people (on internet forums) that I was stupid because "that would never work". Years later, almost every ESC comes with its own fan. Protip, learn what works for you and forget what "they" say.
CCP has the hard numbers and knows if you're bullshitting about your income or not. And they are the ones who have to balance the game. Arguing on the forums about how much an individual person can make is futile. CCP cares about how much the average min/maxer that can read a metagaming website can make. When its too much, they do something about it.
Which brings me back to the OP (who has probably biomassed by now in shame), the loot table change is just another subtle hisec nerf. Marauders are not marauding as much as they could previously maraud.
How dare you suggest I have biomassed in shame?
Mate, hisec should be nerfed. It's an area with very low risk, very high income, and thus unbalances the EVE economy. |

Hahahahahahahahaha.
Mate, this isn't about the skilled players who can make more ISK in the risky zones.
This is about the huge number of players (some of who use bots and multiboxing software) that are making huge amounts of ISK with very little skill or risk.
If everyone can do this, the economy becomes imbalanced.
It's the nature of the EVE economy that every time another person makes ISK, yours gets devalued.
If it took more skill to make ISK (and it was harder to bot/multibox) players who used their skill and intelligence to make ISK would be in a much better position. |

Guys, don't be mean to Baltec, he has a good point.
There are many players in EVE that would be happy to take the risk of venturing into nullsec, lowsec and WH space if the rewards were more worthwhile.
At the moment however, level 4s in hisec are just way too profitable, as the risk is so low and there is so little downtime.
Furthermore, hisec level 4s can be easily botted/ISBOXEDGÇö these things are much harder outside of hisec. |
