While you can of course just disagree with the proposed changes, it is much more helpful if you list the reasons and explain why you disagree. The post above by Traiori is a good example of constructive feedback. Thank you!
The problem is simple.
You think we roll connexions to close them to be safe to farm leading to less content for other player which is true in only one case : farming in cap.
But it is a BIG mistake.
90% of the time, we roll connexion to find new content (for HS acces, to farm our static, to find pvp target).
Not all the wh corp have cap to farm. Others roll their static to find something to farm because home is empty or not farmable.
This change, even with the new values will make small and mid size corp life harder. Perhaps too much. Leading to less wh entities in W-Space and so less pvp and less content. The exact opposite you wanna reach.
In addition, rolling a wh for small/mid sized corp is already a thing. It is not at all 100% safe.
This change especially is a really bad one. It impact small corps on their very existence, and large corp on a strategic plan. |

Many wormholers have bemoaned this concentration of players in ever-larger corps for a long time. Maybe now is finally the time to downsize again and become more mobile.
As someone in the smallest corp possible (currently solo), I don't feel the new environment threatens me. Sure, solo bearing is very dangerous now, but I don't expect I should be allowed to solo-bear in peace in an environment that is supposed to be the most dangerous in EVE. CCP let me farm C4s in absolute safety for way too long already and I won't miss it. For solo hunting the changes are not negative; and if corps become smaller and more numerous again in the future, I very much expect it will be good for my playstyle in the longer term.
You are completly illogical.
We told you that it is harder for small/mid corp to find content and to farm. So people are ??? Leaving !
How the fu... do you expect more small corp in wh ?
I think you are not a real wormholer. You explore wspace, ok but you dont live there. You don't make your isk here.
If you wanna find content in wspace, we need small/mid corp living there.
This patch is just geting this impossible. |

Seriously ...
Adapting to the change may lead many small/mid sized wormhole corps to simply leave w-space and probably leaving the game.
Theses changes makes farming in wspace almost impossible. The risk/reward balance is too unbalanced.
Let's draw for you the big picture :
You have done a patch for w-space that represents maybe 5% of your customer base.
95% of theses 5% told you how and why theses changes are bad.
You have not taken this into account. The current patch is exactly the same as the blog post.
This patch leads to less w-space activity.
I hope your are monitoring activity in w-space, you will se less activity in the coming weeks.
About the forum breaked rules, this is what happens when you stay blinded.
We have not read ANY explanations about the REASONS of theses changes. We have given to you A LOT of comments, you given NOTHING. This is very rude leading to rude reactions. |

Agree to your post except this.
W-Space will be even more empty because most of the w-space targets are wh residents.
Less wh entities (of all size) means less pvp for everyone.

Fozzie pointed out for you in the wormhole townhall that wormhole capital escalations blow away anything else as far as isk/hour. Under old mechanics people have done this in complete safety.
So you have top isk/hour in the safest area of the game. Why would any sane dev allow this?
This is a really bad analysis.
Post Hyperion, large corps leaving in C5/C6 are still able to close every connexion and farm safe but small/mid corps cannot play pve in wspace anymore.
If the issue was really isk/hour, just remove escalation, or reduce the available escalation per anomaly.
Blowin' up all the core wh mecanics is the dumbest solution for this issue (if this is an issue and i don't think it is). |

What about if CCP found that most of the ISK made in WH was in fact feeding alts in other area of the game, like yours, and possibly with enough ISk making to buy enough PLEx with ISk and not have to sub, thus contributing to the rise of PLEX prices for everyone, and a cash flow reduction for CCP?
This is just an hypothesis, but it shows there are a few cases of data where CCP would have absolutely no reason to share their findings outside of their company, and I have a feeling that these WH changes are also driven by strong undercurrents that have grown out of easily farming resources that should have been very dangerous to farm.
If the mass-jump changes is to reduce the isk amount farmed in C5/C6 hole it is an epic fail.
Hyperion doesn't affect C5/C6 large corps.
It simply remove the ability to farm for small corps.

As a member of the smallest corp, I do like the changes made to WH in Hyperion. I have already had a few encounters around collapsers that I could not have had before Hyperion. If anything, I would have preferred the mass distance to be slightly farther than it really is now...
And how do you make your isk now with your small corp ? |
