Edited by: TriadSte on 12/11/2010 17:18:18 Edited by: TriadSte on 12/11/2010 17:17:51 So I read CCP Zulu blog and I had to make some comments on it. So we have the following changes happening November 30th
1. 80 new story line courier missions
What percentage of mission runners actually do courier missions? 2. Rocket balancing
FINALLY I hear you all yell..
3. Tech 2 ammo balancing
Taking away the negative implications that using T2 ammo brings is always a good thing..
4. Adding faction ships to the market
Less chance of hub scamming so thumbs up..
5. Fighter bomber missile visual effects changes
Ah something for the seriously seriously ultra uber low percentage of people who actually fly Carriers who do use bombers.
6. Anti-aliasing support
Always a great thing to get in any game but the clever could always use it anyway :P Ati or Nvidia
7. Window resizing, camera offset
Awesome feature really do like this one..
8. Meta-item indicator icons
Not needed at all but still a cool addition..
9. UI optimization to contract delivery filtering
Meh..
10. Cargo can now be dragged to hangar by dropping on Neocom
Nice touch..
11. Toggling probes in overview
OK..
12. POS gunners now receive notifications about control towers under attack
Again nice addition for those gunners who are not directers so get no evemail about POS attackage
13. Sorting deliveries according to distance in jumps or regional locations
Good for the traders I guess..
14. Unique icons for Microwarpdrives and Afterburners
People can't tell the difference already?
The patch seems ok but where is the 1 click PI that EVERYONE has been wanted and is really needed? This should have come as soon as possible It's the 1 thing I personally think that the higher percentage of people wanted in this patch.
Instead of catering the needs of the very few carriers using bombers maybe do something that we all can actually benefit from?
Quote: CCP Zulu
"we want to make sure our quality assurance department gets plenty of time with the more polished, final versions."
Does this mean that patchs will eventually go online when they're working perfectly unlike the last 5-6 we have just had?
CCP what you are doing is simple
Biting off way more than you can chew, can you not see this?
I commend your efforts of being #1 in your field but I think maybe take a seat and look at whats happening? Already the 2 updates per year has turned into 3 in 3 months. How are you going to get 3 patchs perfect in 3 months when in truth you cannot get them right when its 2 per year?
With all that said, I will re-iterate I commend you for what your "attempting" to pull off.

The fail is strong with this one. Had you bothered to actually read the blog in question, you wouldn't be posting this.
I'll quote the part you seem to have missed.
Originally by: CCP Zulu's Blog
November release (Precursor?)
We have a few options for contained changes we can put out in a beefy mini-expansion in November that may include (but are not limited to):
Notice the word in bold there (btw, it was bold in the dev blog too). The use of that word implies that this is only a list of possibilities, and not a fixed list.
You may stop posting now. --Vel

1) Ya, agreed....
5) If you had read the previous blog this just doesn't effect the people that USE the fighter bombers but also everyone around them as the individual mini-torps they fired caused lag for EVERYONE on the field
11) this is a BIG deal, if you've ever lived in a WH you'd understand why, sure you can force it used XML edits but you know how ppl are....
14)No, you can't. Atm they have the exact same icon
And for your short whine regarding PI changes...
the WHOLE point of the blog was to tell us that they are moving some things back cause they're sure they are't ready yet, don't you see what happened to PI in the first place? Do you honestly want them to rush the fix out, possibly making just as annoying in someway? or maybe rush it out and **** up the market again with the sudden changes.
And FYI, your probably gonna get a lot of flak from ppl that don't give a **** about PI in the first place, using quotes like
Quote: It's the 1 thing I personally think that the higher percentage of people wanted in this patch.
to toast you...

CCP need to stop trying to fix problems with their game, so we can complain about those problems with a clear conscience.

The same way you always sneak up on someone by taking advantage of their inattention to their surroundings. If someone is paying attention then they will be keeping an eye on local and unticking the "use overview settings" on the d-scan screen to show probes so it won't make any difference there except to make it a bit less a chore. Carebears and inattentive people will not get any use out of it as they probably still don't even know it exists let alone how to properly use it.

All the stuff on the list is good.
But its all either rather obvious fixes/improvements or low lying fruit for new content devs.
For instance the missions. Those are extremely easy and fast for a small dev team to crank out. Sure most of us dont care but they take very few resources and do add depth.
Wherever you went - Here you are.

Thread is crap, all the stuff on that list is good. Why do you keep posting so much about the expansion and when its coming ? Why do you care so much ?

Hes sat in a station in 0.0, scared to fly around or go back to empire, waiting for them to release some bpos because he thinks he will make a killing, not realising that every tom **** and harry also has the same idea.

Dear op let me clarify some things for you.
80 new storyline courier missions.
I highlighted the story line because those are not every day missions those are the missions you get for doing 16 regular ones. So people do those usually just to get the implant reward. Now what they didnt say what type of courier it was. I have done a courier mission where i picked up a pack of smokes from a non dockable station and got jumped by 30 or so serpentis. So a courier mission is not always courier, its just a label of you have to go get something never said anythign about it not being guarded.
Fighter bombers - If you bothered to read any of the dev blogs, you would know alreayd a huge source of 0.0 lag came from fighter bombers and the graphics with them. This change is a fix to reduce graphical and server lag.
11. probe - this will allow directional scanners to effectively see probes, a great first warning system in wh space.
Finally stop trolling, you are getting the expansions for free, sure its going to take some extra time, but extra time is better than bugged software. EVRYONE whined for excellence and told ccp to take their time, now they are doing it and you are still whining.

Yeah or just export overview, edit xml, and import to have probes on overview/scan
