As you can see in the title, these are just my thoughts and I wanted to share them. I have been living in wormhole space for a good while now, so these changes are of great interest to me. My thoughts are more general in nature, so I did not find a spot for them in the stickies above that are categorized and more specialized for each part of the changes.
There are some things in this patch/expansion that I think are awesome
- Wormhole effect rebalance (For the most part, but I think the Cataclysmic Variable is pretty loopy. Incentivising remote repping but penalizing remote cap recharge sounds like an oxymoron to me)
- A second static for Class 4 wormholes
- K162 appearance only on first jump
- Loosening of bookmark copying restrictions (Although this is less awesome after we got corp bookmarks, but this can come in handy)
But, I do have a couple of gripes
- They are attempting to make it easier to roam, but I am not sure that the way they are going is what will bring that forth. I think the main hurdle for roams in WH space is not the lack of connections, but the way WH space is navigated. Each system has to be scanned, and having the fleet wait for the scanner to probe down the next system is not fun for anyone except potentially the prober. Some systems have a LOT of sigs, so scanning down a WH can take a long time.
I think they should focus more on making WH space more navigatable, and I think that adding more random WHs to the mix is an ineffectual way of doing that. A more effectual way would be for instance to make WH signatures more identifiable and scanned down more quickly. E.g. make them their own signature type, increase their signature strength, or even simply make them CAs that do not need to be scanned.
- Their approach for providing more PVP in WH space (other than roaming improvements) is not to make PVP more accessible or desirable, but to make it easier to gank residents. WH space is plenty dangerous, and making it more dangerous will simply drive people out of WH space. That may provide more targets in the short run, but not in the long run.
Note: I welcome feedback, but I will probably not be replying further to this thread. Everyone is entitled to voice their opinion, but I do not believe that is a valid reason for me to defend my thoughts - unless I want to. |
