Is there a firm or approximate date when the new racial ship skills will be implemented, more specific than "sometime later than December 4th?" |

Patch Notes wrote:Drones
Ships will attempt to auto-recall their drones if the player's client disconnects whilst in space. Emergency warps won't be delayed by this, but drones will make their best effort to get back before the ship warps off.
Doesn't it already do this? Fear God and Thread Nought |

Found a typo in the patch notes. At least I hope it's a typo. Because otherwise the poor Maulus is getting a -2.5% nerf to effectiveness.
"Maulus: Gùª Gallente Frigate bonuses: +7.5% remote sensor dampener effectiveness and -10% remote sensor dampener effectiveness per level"
I belive you meant to say " +7.5% remote sensor dampener effectiveness and -10% to remote sensor dampener capacitor use per level" |

I have a question in regards to the update. What size will it be ? The reason I ask is that the launcher refuses to update files of more than a couple hundred megs. Or the download completes but must be restarted because it is unusable. Will the stand alone files be available for HTTP/TORRENT download the same day from the website like the current set of zipfiles ? Thanks in advance for answering this question. |

@CCP Dolan Just one small question - I seem to have read somewhere that the Noctis would get a 25 m3 drone bay in connection with the introduction of the salvage drones - or I am wrong about this? Thank you in advance. |

From the patch notes:
"Added the new Rouge Drone officer modules to the market."
I know they show up as red crosses...

Nothing about the proposed Hurricane changes?

An alliance mate and I want to shoot at each other to test our ships. I drop a can, he takes from it and goes flashy red to me. We shoot each other for a while.
How can we do this now without exposing the can "thief" to a suspect flag that will allow everyone in system to jump in on the action? I thought there was going to be a provision made for this, no?

No firm date no. But, it has been said (by a dev) that the battlecruisers and the battleships will be tierised before the skill change will be done. Of note might be the fact that CCP Fozzie has relatively strongly implied that one would be wise to train the Destroyer and Battlecruiser skills sooner rather than later to take full advantage of the skill change. This has lead me to believe that that change might come in a Retribution point release rather than the summer 2013 release. Sable's Ammo Shop at Alentene V - Moon 4 - Duvolle Laboratories Factory. Hybrid charges, Projectile ammo, Missiles, Drones, Ships, Need'em? We have'em, at affordable prices. Pop in at our Ammo Shop in sunny Alentene. |

Can you please consider splitting the assets - 3D geometry, textures, sound, etc. - from the code, in the build, and deploy each as a separate download?
Assets make up the largest part of any deployment, yet usually require the least amount of last minute critical fixes/changes. By separating them, you should be able to let players get a day or so headstart on downloading the assets, while the final code changes are still being QAed, fixed and packaged.
At the very least, downloading the assets gives people something to do while the server-side updates are being installed/tested, during the extended downtime (which undoubtedly will get more extended... it always does on major patches).
The downloaded assets can remain safely packaged on the client, until the code part of the build is deployed and downloaded, at which time, the new assets can be unzipped and installed along with the code.
You might even consider breaking up the assets into smaller packages, and start downloading the finished assets now incrementally, via the launcher. This would distribute the load and help reduce the inevitable spike on Dec 4. |

I hadn't heard anything about the change to the Afterburner skill before, but I really like it. There is now a positive reason to train the skill to V. |

Impressive set of changes!
Some of the Caldari Cruisers list their slot layout numbers as being their defense values.
Slightly surprised that people trying (but failing) to murder me in low sec won't grant me kill rights against them. That's not very "retributiony" at all. |

I too would like to know what size the download will be .
My connection isn't the fastest and I need to plan for a skill training queue of appropriate length .
Thank you .

This will be a major pain in the posterior, not a feature.
Please give us an option to have the safety status persistent or reset in the settings in Retribution 1.01

The new sound features are not mentioned in the patch notes even in the slightest.. why. The weapon sounds I understand they need more work but there is more sound features than the weapon sounds. |

Yay for once we have more than 24hrs notice of the start time of the extended downtime. (CCP has always released the Date ahead of time, but have previously failed to give more that 24hrs notice of the start time)
This time I will remember to change skills after the previous DT, and not try and leave it for changing just before normal DT.(living at GMT+10, DT is at 9PM normally, and I don't normally get home from work till 7PM, given that the Expansion DTs seem to start early I fail to get the 2hr window that I would normally get in order to change skils) |

What this guy said. It's inexcusable that not only is there no persistence, but the default option is the most invasive and restrictive. "Look any reason why you need to talk like that? I have now reported you. I dont need to listen to your bad tone. If you cant have a grown up conversation then leave the thread[" |

I'm disappointed in 1. the lack of dueling mechanic for starting ad-hoc limited engagements and 2. the nerfing of the sensor strength skills... but for the most part this looks like quite a solid offering, good work and good luck CCP. Lobbying for your right to delete your signature |

In the patchnotes is a serious typo I'd say:
Exequror: Amarr Cruiser bonuses: -5% remote armor repair system capacitor use and +12.5% remote armor repair system amount per level
Scythe: Caldari Cruiser bonuses: -5% shield transfer capacitor use and +12.5% shield transfer repair amount per level
Please let it only be in the patchnotes and not on tranq. |
