Topic: Further Alpha Nerf
I have seen somewhere on the forum players ask for some alpha love to help "carebear" style of players feel at home in perpetuum.
In fact its quite the contrary thats happening. Without any notice (ninja style) thats a bit lame:
"" #831 - Hershfield spawn 1120 1850

The Hershfield spawn 1120 1850 seems bugged for several days now. It only spawns one group of npcs, while it was popping 2 groups since forever? What is happening?

Greetings Cobalt!
Yes, we know about it, as far as i know it was intended and we removed the other half of the spawn from the game. I can't say any further information because i'm not the one who is working with the balance, but it was intended!

So i logged in to farm those spawns. Guess what i will do now? Certainly not go solo on beta to be ganked by a 5 millions worth, pvp starved, group of 3 light ewars with my full t4 pve fit gropho mk2.... Sorry but no.
So the brilliant idea is: nerf alpha to the point peoples will be forced to go to beta? Simply it wont work, because your tiny still active dedicated playerbase just dont like to be forced into anything. They will simply do what a big part of your subscribers do: not login anymore, wainting for the miracle patch
Or at least thats what i will do, cause im the only one still active in my corp, im faithful to my corp cause its a multigame one, so i mostly play solo. And frankly, one decision after another, solo play has been made almost unbearable even for veterans...
I already see the forum warriors impale me in the heart with their big pale of unstoppable logic... Now look at the general chat count... Still going down. Really how was this needed i cant understand.
