The majority of your post history disagrees.
And yes, by the way, nerfing incursions would fix anoms and a bunch of other things besides, because income, and purchasing power thereby, are relative.

You should be able to find something to do in game without changing someone Else's.

You do realize this is a game right?
1) Just because you think LOW and NULL are cool places to hang out with your time, many others don't. 2) Those others want fun things to do as well, things THEY think are fun, not you! 3) Let me repeat the 1st one for you.... Not everyone wants to play this game the way you do, but still want to play it. This may mean you don't always get your way; which is nerfing HS to get players to go to unsafe space so you can play with them. 4) THIS IS THE BIG ONE HERE: After only a few months, maybe 6; you have all the money you need to play solo for free and fly any ship you want. |

And like every game ever made you need it to be balanced well. If the safest area of space provides the best income why would anyone go to the more dangerous areas that require more effort, investment and risk?

Hey guys!
So the last time you carebear numbskulls started complaining about how boring and/or easy it was to kill rats in the game, you know what happened?
Well, CCP made it more "interesting" to rat. How did they achieve this great feat you ask?
Instead of running the site you ran before - you now run the same site, but the rats alternate the targets. So your drones, fleet members, and logi support can all die. See, its much more interesting when the rats alternate targets.
Stop complaining about systems that effectively put isk in your wallets. Or would you like CCP to make something more interesting again ? |

Absolutely disagree that a fun and engaging aspect of highsec pve should even be considered to be removed from the game. Also, this is one of the few highsec activities that not only encourages but actually requires you to group up with others to accomplish and CCP loves that.
Let me say first off before my next comment: I am and always have been 100% highsec carebear and proudly so. I have fought adamantly against the normally poor treatment we receive from CCP with regards to our chosen area of game play, especially with regards to protecting our income.
As i mentioned in another post the term 'moderate' should ring true when discussing incomes in highsec. Not low as it is for highsec PI nor as high as it is for incursions or FW. Incursions and FW should payout more than running L4s but not as much more as they currently do.
Lets get to balancing this income situation as soon as possible.
Yawn,-á I'm right as usual. The predictability kinda gets boring really.

Carriers. You need CARRIERs, in the single most dangerous par tof EVE space, to match or exceed what can be made in HIGH SEC protected by concord while using su caps.
Thanks for helping me prove my point.
You need ONE carrier one dreadnaught and a couple other ships. Bammo +800m an hour with less effort than incursions.
You could in theory do it without the carrier but it'd require a lot more effort. |

Feel free to try to take out logi supported BS gangs with just 11 catalysts. As for bosters, they are not needed. I tanked incursions in my harpy fit megathron, its not hard.
Telling people to go attack others doesn't fix the problem that highsec PVE pays more than null PVE.

Since when is molon labe not principal around here? it is a complete and utter lie to decry that there is no risk is because players decline to bring it. It's player driven content, but some around here only know how to steer into barges or freighters.

last time i was in a wormhole it was 2 carriers, 6 dreads and half a dozen lokis to make probably not even 800mil an hour (wont even go into the cost of the caps and lokis), less effort than anchoring up and shooting the tags?, pretty much anyone can do incursions risk free, you dont even need to watch dscan, good luck finding a nice wormhole where you can just rock in and make lots of isk without any risk and minimal skills, dont forget the effort of rolling the wormhole to make it semi safe and the fact you dont have any local to notice any reds coming in, the logistical efforts of not having any markets or stations nearby, lose a capital in a wormhole and you cant just autopilot in your shuttle to jita to buy another one. wormholes are just 1 big massive effort in every situation and cannot be compared to incursions, wormholers sacrifice a serious amount of benefits/services to make isk and risk a hella lot more.

After reading everything it looks like all the risk in Incursions have been dealt with by the players. Fleet doctrines, secure movement between locations as well as knowledge about triggers and rat abilities. And of course letting the Incursion run as long as possible.
So the high payouts are made possible by the players. It is possible to make more ISK in other areas of the game but in reality it does not because other players interfere. This is the reason many want the option to kill Incursion runners. They want to be able to lower the income. But killing is a low an null sec option. Yes, it does exist in high sec but outside of CODE (who kill for fun) it is only done for profit because of CONCORD.
Now people gank freighters so it should be possible to gank some battleships as well. If you really want to it should not matter if it doesn't pay well. Imagine if freighters would only move in fleets with logi, scout and webber support. It is simply not done because is not necessary. So nobody does it. For Incursions a fleet is a must. It basicly forces people to act clever and as a team or they won't win. This makes killing them a no-go for most.
Reading all that's been said the best options to lower the income of Incursion runners are the following:
1. Run the Incursions yourself. More competition lowers individual income. (Works on the market as well as we all know.)
2. End the Incursions as soon as possible. Point 1 leads directly to this option. It gives the Incursion runners less time to farm. They have to move to the next location and every minute spend on moving is a minute lost creating income through Incursions.
A side effect of causing them to move more often is the option to kill them on the move. Yes, they know they are being hunted. Yes, they use travel fits, blockade runners and all the tricks in the book. But more moving (and refitting) means more chance for human error.
So please use all your options first before you call for the nerf bat. Just because you don't like the options does not make it broken.
BTW: It looks like the low and null sec gatecamps should be removed or high sec should receive them. |

Except this is a CCP game so more people being greedy would show the imbalance even more and more than likely get it fixed if they see it needs to. Look at most of the past "controversial" changes that happened and I would bet you can remember history of such things getting used more and more before it got revised by CCP. It took months after drone mods affecting fighter really generated much complaints because the usage was rather limited. Once more people jumped on the bandwagon, the complaints got traction. Same for drone assists.
If incursion are as game breaking as people try to make it sound in this thread, CCP won't have a choice but to intervene if too many people do it or risk the economy slipping away.
It's a stupid way to deal with stuff IMO but it seems to be the one that player can do so ... |

I believe this happens because of whining on the forums. While only a minority actually post, I bet a lot more lurk for valuable information. When people start clamoring about how x, y, and z is imbalanced, lurkers will usually be the first to try it out because they're here looking for valuable information that will get them ahead. Similarly to how I will be engaging drifters differently because of valuable information I have learned very recently. It's a lot like when piracy wasn't all that a big deal. The more press releases all these companies and regulation agencies made about piracy, the more popular it got. It's now to the point people in law enforcement agencies don't even view it as a big deal. I personally never have as well.
When it comes to Eve, I believe people bring up issues like this to purposely get people more involved so that CCP can take action which will have a positive net result for themselves. The markets will never get out of balance due to incursions because of the soft caps that are already in place. Never mind the fact the markets have already stabilized with the introduction of incursions. When you have uneducated people doing something that yields more profit, they're going to stick to what they know works. The grand majority of people, day in and day out, do the same things that yield them a personal satisfactory profit. They never critically think to themselves in such a way that would allow them to make even more profit because they are either content, which is a by product of ignorance sometimes, or because they are incapable.
I personally believe, this entire topic stinks with that kind of agenda. Talk about it enough to get the followers to hop on it and stick with it. But it will fail in the end because of the soft caps. What would happen instead is the income would get redistributed into different hands if everyone jumped in on it. I also believe, over time, if the competition got out of control it would resolve itself because of the soft caps and how income potential is diminished if you have too many players. More players also doesn't necessarily mean faster completion times outweighing efficient, proper sized fleets. Usually more people = more poop happens because of an innumerable amount of confounding variables at play due to so many people there with a preconceived idea of how things ought to be when they go apply themselves to the situation at hand.
At the end of the day, there are ways to stop something you don't like in this game. "Just do it!" |

There aren't ways to stop it. Sure you can spend a few billion trying to gank them at a huge loss but why would people waste their time to do that? Unlike Freighters these ships travel in gangs with large tanks, logi support, often boosters and can open fire right back at you. Ganking doesn't work on actual fleets. Ganking is done for profit, something the people of highsec cant seem to grasp. Killing the mom early was done for a while but ended because again, where is the gain for the people ending it early? Its not fun and it doesn't get you anything worth more than keeping it alive. You cant wardec these people as they are protected by NPC corps and you cant attck them in any normal way due to concord protection.
No, when something is out of whack in terms of reward the only viable way to deal with it is to close the abuse, something CCP has been forced to do many times in the past.

Since you are not willing to beat them (incursion runners) at their own game (getting their sites so the income goes to you instead of them), then I guess you will have to wait for CCP to deem it important enough to change something about it. Which can be anywhere between the june release and the end of time. |

One carrier is right. And that one Carrier is in WORMHOLE space not protected by CONCORD, in space where the content can be exhausted (you can't keep wormhole pve going like you can an incursion). If someone is bold enough to take or build a capital ship in unprotected space in order to make money, that is the game working as intended. That's risk/reward done right.

All good, folks like me will make a fortune off the unbalanced things till then lol.
This is the problem with people, they can't be honest enough or objective enough about things to call it like it is. While I don't like a lot about Goon types, at least they are honest about unbalanced things while at the same time they are exploiting them, and I do the same thing which is why I have both a incursion alt and a faction warfare alt. What I no longer have are alts to experience any substantial risk while filling my space wallets with space bucks

One carrier is right. And that one Carrier is in WORMHOLE space not protected by CONCORD, in space where the content can be exhausted (you can't keep wormhole pve going like you can an incursion). If someone is bold enough to take or build a capital ship in unprotected space in order to make money, that is the game working as intended. That's risk/reward done right. Why are you still posting here instead of beating the war drums to motivate people to run them to the very limit to force CCP to do something about something oh so broken? Every 15 minutes wasted here is at least 1 site not getting run.
Because it's not that important. I've done my 'virtual civic duty' in pointing out the gross imbalance (that i'm benefitting from). A gross imbalance that helped thwart CCPs plans during this change(because rather than 'fight for better space', people just left for greener, more high-secy pastures), and will do so again when Fozziesov comes. CCP is literally wasting development time implementing a new Sov system that relies on PVE for defensive bonuses when it's stupid to do pve in null unless you're a renter or some kind of scrub.
CCP changes it, the game gets better. CCP doesn't change it, all good as far as I'm concerned, I adapted to the imbalances in 2011 after the event I just linked. But it is crappy suboptimal game design no matter how much you try to deny it.
Sorry if you can't understand this, but that a 'you' issue, not a 'me' issue.

I thought EVE was supposed to be harsh.
Let's pretend for a sec that the usual suspects are actually right about high sec being safer than null (demonstrably false). If that were the case, why should the rewards be better in null? It's ******* harsh, remember? You want the freedom to be a douche, you pay the price for it. You work harder and fight over scraps.
The easy money should be in the safer places.
Why do you people have it so backwards in your twisted little minds? There should be no incursions in null and very few in low sec. CCP should move level fives back into high sec as well.

There are 86,400 seconds in a day. You just saved one of them by typing 'u' instead of 'you'.-á Congratulations, dumbass!

There aren't ways to stop it. Sure you can spend a few billion trying to gank them at a huge loss but why would people waste their time to do that? Unlike Freighters these ships travel in gangs with large tanks, logi support, often boosters and can open fire right back at you. Ganking doesn't work on actual fleets. Ganking is done for profit, something the people of highsec cant seem to grasp. Killing the mom early was done for a while but ended because again, where is the gain for the people ending it early? Its not fun and it doesn't get you anything worth more than keeping it alive. You cant wardec these people as they are protected by NPC corps and you cant attck them in any normal way due to concord protection. No, when something is out of whack in terms of reward the only viable way to deal with it is to close the abuse, something CCP has been forced to do many times in the past. Since you are not willing to beat them (incursion runners) at their own game (getting their sites so the income goes to you instead of them), then I guess you will have to wait for CCP to deem it important enough to change something about it. Which can be anywhere between the june release and the end of time. All good, folks like me will make a fortune off the unbalanced things till then lol. This is the problem with people, they can't be honest enough or objective enough about things to call it like it is. While I don't like a lot about Goon types, at least they are honest about unbalanced things while at the same time they are exploiting them, and I do the same thing which is why I have both a incursion alt and a faction warfare alt. What I no longer have are alts to experience any substantial risk while filling my space wallets with space bucks
If you do nothing about it except keep running them without any change, why do you expect CCP to not just let you run them without any change?
