Originally by: Snapes I remember reading a dev blog about ccp wanting people to expand out into 0.0 space. well 0.0 is not for the individuel pilot and the rewards for the solo pilot who has limited funds and equipment (guessing around 80% of active players) is not on par with the losses they generaly expiernce. I should know.... I lose alot of ships out there and never make more then a few million, but if ccp wants more people to expand to 0.0 space they need to make it more accessable, affordable, and less risky isk wise to the casual individuel. i hardly ever go out to 0.0 space because i generaly have no need to, or find that on a personal level there is nothing really worth risking millions of isk worth of equipment and invested time for such marginal gains. in order to make any kind of headway out there you need a Bs and company to help you with pvper's that you will no doubt encounter in the bottle neck systems let alone the multi Bs spawns that no lone t1 cruiser could ever hope to bring down. there are more solo players then then team players. if ccp where to cater to them you would see people wanting to head to 0.0 space. but this is a pipe dream and the only reason i head to 0.0 is to pvp, because i dont have time/or desire to want to do anything else other then give people a hard time or get myself blown up. the devs did a good job with eve it's just that mining and ratting is to hard for me in 0.0 space for me to be interested. low sectors have more action and isk possablilitys then 0.0. keep that in mind ccp otherwise all those littl red sec dots on the map will remain farely void of any pilots.

Well, for making money, people tend to use BS/HAC for ratting etc, or BS/Barge for mining. Either way, 0.0 is for people who want to adapt. For example, everyman and his HAC would be out ganking everyone, so people start fitting NOS to take down these hacs. This results in higher demand of HAC's resulting in higher HAC prices so people are now in penut frig fleets moving around 0.0 ganking anyone they see. This in turn causing people to adapt by fitting smartbombs. Then the cycle changes yet again and again.
Anyhow, the point is simple. 0.0 is for people to adapt. You can be pennyless in 0.0 and come out a billionare. Or you can go in a billionare and come out pennyless.
The real challange in 0.0 is distribution. People want freightors , they want commen items (such as expanded cargos or shuttles or named cap rechargers or whatever) and there are many people who fill a hauler or freightor with these items & Cheap BPO's and sell them on for a small fortune.
