At.Denis alone can rival houses in GDP. When you have billions of SC on your account I doubt that earning a few millions more from an event (which might not be enticing to you in the first place) can be called a sufficient motivation. I have enough credits and I simply avoid events that do not catch my eye. There must be other incentives in addition to or instead of credits if we want this to work.
Yes, it needs to be creative buffs of all kinds - credits buff for OF shipping factions and extra bounties in events for OF combat factions is a no brainer though.
Also credits are not important to vets, sure, but it WILL give incentive for newer players to join Official factions and help it with tracker. If I am an Ageira indie now it's like "meh whatever" but if I saw an OF player run the same route and make 40% more money it'd give me a strong urge to consider joining and get it too. Much like miners join OF s to get their mining bonuses.
Same with an event and Ofs getting more cash - every event would have "Official ID players get 50% more rewards on kills" - would be there in every event and make OF seem to matter way more. Even if the actual money is hardly signifficant at all.
