Of all the times to reinstall, this would literally be the worst.

I was thinking about this for a while, but waited until at the very least the weapons-grade-dumb 'blackout' was reverted. I'm hoping for something relatively chill anyways nowadays. Main problem is going to be liquidating enough old assets to be isk-reasonable again (18b assets, but only 400m in bank) to get back to Omega and, you know, be able to do poo poo

I started playing about 3 months ago now and I've been having fun, but I guess it depends how salty you are? Peak players have been heading towards 30k since blackout ended though.

I wasn't actually sure if I'd stick with the game past the first week or so at first, but there's always a lot of things to do and fleets happening all the time so it's really grabbed me.

Incursions are great, by the way.

The PVE in EVE is just sooo boring. I get why so many people run bots because its brain dead unless you are running deadspace complexes and even then its only slightly braindead.

The PvE is pretty mindless but incursions in a group are so fast-paced that you're rarely ever just sitting there doing nothing. And with mining I could chat with others with me or watch a movie or something. I like having games where I'm doing something but that something is just enough to keep me from fidgeting while I'm watching videos or reading. Usually that's WoW or Stellaris or Minecraft.

Aren't incursions some sort of highsec thing?

They really should let people spawn gated incursions in nullsec similar to anomalies. Would be fun for group content.

High, low, and null. When they happen in null, they break jump bridges (or whatever they're called now) and beacons and need to be zerged down post haste.

L4s are fine, they pay out a reasonable amount but incursions (via multiboxing, since it's super easy content) and burners( 400m+ hr with 1 account) is just poorly balanced safe highly rewarding gameplay

Null burners aren't really that much more dangerous TBH...

So I peeked at this thread before I went to bed and then had a stupid dream about Eve that I was flying a standard freighter unscouted filled with Asshouses taking gates in nullsec and I got chased by a gang into an Incursion even though I know better. Got murdered and then woke up extremely pissed because I had a loving Eve dream.

but they can be reasonably interdicted, a group (or individual) could stop another individual from doing it semi-reliably, or significantly hamper their isk/hr

it isn't always about killing, it's about interrupting too

Why there isnt a dedicated sig in some alliance that headshots hs incursions to deny them income confuses me. I spoke to someone that said it would be a lot of effort and the that doesn't seem like enough deterrent to make hs cry

Warp speed changes are:
Cruiser: 3 -> 4
BC: 2.7 -> 3.5
BS: 2 -> 3
T2 Cruiser: 3.3 -> 4.5
T2 BC: 3 -> 4
T2 BS: 2.2 -> 3.5

Source: Some guy on the EVE Online forums, as CCP didn't think of actually telling us the changes. (The official article just says the changes happened, and that's it.)

Are they going to increase the warp speed so I can finish my warp to that 20m au anom in less than 30 years?

CCP says the bug got fixed, so no. Besides those bugged anoms were somewhere deep inside the galactic void, so who knows what spooky things would have happened to you there? :v:

Loki has been king of most PvE and PvP roles for T3Cs for a while, you mean. CCP's efforts to make the other three stand out less in some roles simply resulted in a hard efficacy nerf in ALL roles to where Loki is the meta choice 90% of the time.

A Loki is better at PVE than a tengu?
