Just participated in my first major fleet fight. We took double Titan bridges so we barely had to take any gates. Landed on the enemy. Fired my weapons and was instantly vaporized and podded back home for free without having to take gates. If that's not total victory then I don't know what is

Gwyneth Palpate posted:no, i am talking about the character bazaar on the contrary, it was rare to find the exact character you needed for any situation, with this it's possible to actually CREATE any character you want. before injectors no one really ever bought ganking, outside of people quitting and giving them away. now i've used 4-5 injectors on each of my dudes easily. likewise instead of either waiting 30 days to do some gimmick or buy an entire character to being able to do it, i can just buy a couple of 'jectors and shoot up dudes in my new 100mn hamgu if i was a ghost trainer i could straight up create 50 titan alts and buy 50 titans. before injectors i couldn't do that, it would take months, maybe even years to buy 50 titan pilots.

It's not entirely unreasonable to equate the character bazaar to injectors, but they're two wildly different means of transferring SP. One is granular, as Querns explained, but the other has so much potential lost value that the only way to realize any ROI would be to sell the character again down the road. Coupled with the very serious amount of ISK involved, it's more like a luxury good (buying a YACHT) or a home, whereas SP from injectors is way more like a commodity. And even includes a built-in systemic inefficiency to sink SP.

Gwyneth Palpate posted:rare, sure, but still possible You were never going to encounter a situation where the character bazaar could enable thousands of pilots to simultaneously circumvent the SP requirements for a given ship or industrial activity. The volume never existed for it. The problem is brand new. The market, the players, and the designers had always accommodated the character bazaar. With injectors you literally have the posterchild for disruptive innovation/technology. We're dealing with completely different factors dictating how SP is used and traded, and how that SP impacts the market (which, honestly, I doubt the character bazaar had any measurable impact on the minerals index or any other part of the market).

Catberry posted:This seems like such an upper class issue. How do people even manage to rally player outcry around reduced capital ship ratting income? It's not just the fighter changes, those are just the topper on a steaming pile of poo poo. CCP has been ignoring player feedback about new stuff dating as far back as the release of Fozziesov, and it's finally reached a point where people are just too goddamn upset to stay quiet.

NPCs will be 15% more likely to hit fighters. And for rorqs they added a 5 hour delay between collosal anoms (in addition to the previous nerfs for the excavators).

We think it might be CCP flagging him for RMT, but i'm not banned so it can't be that. he was banned for 30 days several months ago, and during that time his accounts ghost trained for like 20+ days, but no one else I know that ghost trained got banned yet, so we don't think it's that either. we really have no idea
