Originally by: Jack Gilligan Check out the speed of Battleships on the test server.
L4 missions have already been nerfed. With the speed changes (you can't speed fit a solo mission tank) running missions will take a LOT more time than they do now, lowering even more any perceived advantage over mission running vs 0.0 ratting. Note: there isn't. You make far more isk in less time ratting in 0.0 than with mission running.
But would you fly a multi-billion ISK pimped out pwnmobile for ratting like you can for highsec missions? The answer there for most sane people is 'no.' So the end result of L4 nerfs is removal of a long term goal for some players. That in itself seems bad.

Originally by: Cobra Ball If that happens, then industrialist won't have anyone to sell their ships to, and miners will have no one to sell their minerals to.
Technically incorrect. Minerals can be converted directly into ISK through ship hulls & the insurance mechanic. So miners (with access to a blueprint) are a closed loop ecosystem for generating ISK. It just so happens that selling to players is slightly more profitable.
You always have the option of selling GTCs instead of grinding you know.

But if not these level 4 runners... who do these 0.0 people sell their Gist xl shield boosters to? Nobody can practically use them. Thusly 0.0 cant sell these top of the line mods to anyone. Thusly nobody buys them. Prices crash. 0.0 becomes even more worthless for non-moon mining.
Affordable faction mods... Hmm... Ok, that's an excellent argument. A winning argument, in fact. I was pretty 'meh' either way, but you've convinced me to bandwagon on the 'nerf level 4s' cause.

Originally by: Sylper Illysten Well looks like the ganktards get their wish. This will be then end of the casual player.
Have you tried life in a 0.0 pet corp? Zero political BS. Zero lag. Zero spammy scammers. Zero ninja salvagers. Empire war decs cause nothing but laughter.
Log on for however long you feel like, hit some belts, log off. PvE on your own time and not commit for however long a mission takes.
It doesn't get any more casual than this.
