Well, that Drifter storyline was cool while it happened in highsec. Now that the focus has moved to wormholes, I don't care about them any more.
73% of EVE characters stay in high security space. 62% of EVE subscribers barely PvP. 40% of all new accounts just "level up their Ravens". Probably that's why PvE content in EVE Online is sub-par and CCP is head over heels for PvP...

A new type of resource(s) for a new tech (level), obtainable only in Hisec & in part in WHs would be interesting.

I wonder what are you supposed to do once Drifters put you in their "shoot on sight" list. Spend the whole rest of your EVE tenure running away from Drifters? Play with an alt? I mean, what is Drifter standing? Is it like being in Red vs Blue, just without a way out?
In one hand, I think that no game developer with half a functional brain would come to such stupid "endgame" and so there must be a way to align with Drifters and earn their favor -or at least negotiate a truce.
In the other hand, this is CCP, and stupid is their trademark so caveat emptor.

Not enough interest?
Not enough people going into the new wormholes?
I mean, you're explaining the in-progress storyline. That's, like, explaining a joke.
EDIT: Good explanation... So, what does the loot table contain, and is it worth the headache? |

Probably there's Something Big (TM) coming Soon (TM) and they want to provide a headsup to anyone meeting it for the first time.
Of course, Incursions 2.0 (Drifter storyline) is about as original as Apochrypha 2.0 (Rubicon plan) and both them mean nothing to the 62%... we aren't here to be carrot-and-sticked out of highsec.

Sansha don't follow you in warp, even if you're cloaked. They don't camp you in station. They don't blow up your POS. They have a next-level AI.
Unless CCP nerfs them silly, they're not going to behave like Sansha rats.

yea but they are still just rats. CCP had a chance to make incursions really shake up HS, and they kinda cop'ed out on it. Instead of something revolutionary it turned into little more then an isk faucet for high end missioners. With drifters is it going to be just more rats (albeit smarter one) or is it going to shake up the status quo? For instance, it would be very cool if they temporarily forced a change to the sec status of a system or disabled a systems' star gates requiring players to skip through wh's to get out.

You don't think it's impressive that they remember that you attacked them long enough to reinforce the POS you ran and hid in, then return for the timer so that they can blow it up?
I think it would be more awesome if they could take gates and WHs, especially given that they have no trouble finding you when you're cloaked. They won't politely wait for you while you rep up and get more drones and more ammo. You're done with them when they're done with you.

These are all functions hinted at by the blog about the new deployables. The are all elements that can be found inside the Drifter vaults.
Path to your space structures.. Like a jumpgate? a flowing together of all the different parts? A whole Complex? PLACE of retreat.... Uh... Quite literal Sentinels to defend your space stuff. Alrighty. Mobile sentry in advance of combat force.. Im thinking something people would use to find your space goodies hidden, like probes.
Does this mean deep space?

I dont see any of this content really appealing or worthwhile. The drifters super weapon keeps everyone that is not in a capital ship from engaging with them. The entosis link is another troll tool for blobs to use on smaller corps in nullsec. The drifters themselves are flying ships that are recycled pieces of content from the sleepers. It would be one thing if there was content for everyone to enjoy, but as it is they are just a nuisance and their WH systems lack enjoyable activities. I think the CCP dev team is trying to create something new, but it's happening too slowly and rewarding those at the top or those that fly in the largest blobs instead of breaking them down and giving new players a chance to explore new content. Null sec sov has been turned into a joke where the big guys dominate and charge rent to everyone else, and if you dont like it they turn your **** off. Super lame. |

You got it in one - the focus has moved. The Drifters remain in highsec also and the focus will shift over time :)

Things happen too fast to already state that the Drifters are only relevant in (their 5) W-Spaces anyway. Sarum Prime anyone?

Variable security system? Well, maybe I could buy that, depending on how long would take to rise security from 0.6 to 0.9...

Yes I'm sure decreasing CONCORD response times will be the Drifters' top priority, right after they're done murdering everybody and stealing their brains.

Y'know, I hear that there are places in EVE where there's no CONCORD... but those are scary places and you wouldn't want to go there and pvp anyone.
Also, folks that don't pvp aren't just going to dock up, they'll log off... so who are you going to chase around that can't fight back at that point? |

I was being sarcastic. That's about as original as "nerf highsec".
