Approximate time of deployment ?

No Micro Jump Drive?

You know who is awesome?

After him, it's Tallest.

@doombreed52
Mate, Black ops gang have nothing to be warried about as they will not stay cloaked for 3 days in same system.


@CCP Goliath i would like to get comment about my idea from you. Is this thing what could be made?

This idea isnt exacly my but its what came from brainstorm of 20 people long time ago. We figured that covert cloak gives advantage for single man over whole alliances with thousends of people. Also it allows for of AFK gaming same style like boting ( you play without playing). If someone wants to stay alive he should keep atention even in minimal scale, not just go to work/girfriend/play WOW and make pain to others because he can. Thats why loging off mechanics was changed to remove same style problem.

Oh so thats how it is...

Tallest > Goliath

Pretty sure these changes are behind the scenes performance related.
You should see the affected areas perform more smoothly, but no functionality has been added/removed.
Or am I missing something?

Any news on moving items that are still missing from the market, to the market?

e: Also, I was just online and didn't see the charge consuming shield boosters. What gives?

Because I am an impatient bastard, any clues as to when 'later today' will be? :p

That panel had allot of good ideas but it was pretty vague. I would like to hear a bit more detail on all the fw changes really.

this drone damage thingy sucks balls!!
Means a stealth nerf to solo bombers since all bears will fit it on their ratting boats, it was already hard enough to tank bombers properly, now its gonna be almost impossible?

Dont introduce it.
Alternatively, boost bomber HP in order to compensate the drone changes.

That's low sec only right? just making sure, other than that I look forward to the changes : ) anything is better than the lack of updates for the past what... 2-3 years?

Will the new drone damage module affect fighters???

Liar, it's not most likely its asured by CCP explorer if you ask me :(

I can tell you with absolute certainty that at this point I have no idea whatsoever when SiSi will be up... Does that help?

I absolutely agree 100%, this was something I was very firm with the developers about.

The new mods need to be seeded please.

No, the majority of the major Faction Warfare changes (with the exception of datacores) were all ideas that originated from within the community.

From all the of GOOD things that are coming that everyone agreed on (LP for kills, LP for plexing), to even the controversial changes like station docking denial, probably 95% of the current package stems from FW community feedback.

If you don't believe me, time to start re-reading old threads.

People will wail and gnash their teeth about "being forced into nullsec" but really there is little in this package that resembles anything within null sec. The exception is docking denial, which like I said is something that many FW pilots have asked for historically.

The other cool thing is that players have complete freedom to participate or not participate in the coming system. Don't want to run missions? PvP for your income instead, you can actually make a living doing that now. Don't want to upgrade your system? Fine, keep your LP. Don't want to be locked out of a station? Quit FW for a day and re-enlist when you get your stuff moved. Station lockout won't keep anyone from playing the game, it'll be more like a time out box, unless you have a neutral alt. For those with neutral alts, its even less of a big deal, you just have to do a little work to get your stuff back. No different than having to work to repair a POS after an enemy's banged it up. Its a consequence. Consequence is what EVE is all about. Its not the consequence I would have chosen, but its also not outrageous to say that owners of a station should deny docking to a sworn enemy.

Nothing here that is forced on anyone, which is another good thing. It wouldn't be a sandbox otherwise. There will be pilots that just enjoy the fact that they get paid to pew, and do nothing else. They wont care about holding a system, they'll just dock on the fringe, and raid into enemy territory and get paid more to kill than ever before.

Others will go for the full package, coordinating efforts to take and hold space and reap the benefits. There are multiple levels to be involved or not be involved, and there are multiple ways to deal with the few consequences that are being implemented, CCP is expecting FW pilots to HTFU and learn to creatively deal with the challenges.

I believe enough in the FW community that I think most people will learn to do just that. There will be those that just rage and quit before they've even seen how this turns out, but I think most FW pilots are tough enough and skilled enough to be able to compensate and perform even when their faction is in a difficult situation.

In the old days, there was no incentive to fight back. Thats why we've been pitchforking for years. Now, there is more reason to fight back than ever before. We are to blame for the current package, not anyone in null sec.

Really? You talk about iterating on faction war as if it will happen every other month. But CCP doesn't even fix bugs in the mechanics.

We have had 2 or 3 patches since a bug in the plexing mechanic has been clearly identified and ccp has not fixed it.

Jade welcome to faction war. This aint sov null sec where ccp is constantly wringing their hands to make sure everything works as intended.

Please tell me what ccp has done for faction war lately that makes you think they will give it any priority at all. Everything points to them puking this out and letting it sit there for years.

We do not even get the courtesy of a clear explanation/devblog telling us what is on sisi. No one can say.

"Go try it" is the answer.

Ok I did I see a militia tab that says I am at war with minmatar and nothing else. I can't use any services in a 24th imperial crusade station even though I fight for amarr. I do a plex and get a 17k lp for a medium but beyond that I have no idea what I accomplished. I look at the map and its the same blurry balls that give very fuzzy information.

How long am I supposed to stay on sisi trying to figure out what they are doing? The only thing that is clear is they are following through with their null sec lite plans. No docking and long timers.


BTW
not all the drones show up on dscan.
The sov tab on the map says (faction war) but it is listing alliances that are not in faction war.

Did something happen to the server?

daghhhhh someone grab the inventory guys and get them on to respond in the test feedback forum, and in their own devblog topic, people are begging to make input but not seeing any devs :( makes me sad panda

If CCP or anyone cares to see it, here is a long discussion by FW corps on the issue:

Discussion by FacWar corps

When the game crashes on Singularity, is any action required of me to make sure CCP gets the information? (I've had several anomalous crashes on SiSi while flying in space, instant CTD with a message that the game have stopped working)

Were RR mechanics in low sec change? The other day I was in fleet with some of my corp mates, Im -9.0 sec status and I had GCC. I was not able to rep the members of my fleet who did not have gcc (who also happened to have positive sec status).

Is this an intended change or did something break somewhere?

Are you sure? link

Other than the defect, that looks great! This sort of intel will definitely encourage people to do more, and hopefully fight for more plexes.

Not sure if this is the right thread, but whatever.

I'm still under the assumption that Sansha ships haven't been V3'd yet as I'm unable to find the Sansha's Nation emblem anywhere on either of them. Is this correct?

Cant believe the frigate balancing doesnt include the Worm. That thing REALLY needs looked at

. . . And the first mining frigate bites the dust. Not that I'm complaining - my fitting skills are to the point that Dessies make a better 'quick mining for L1-2 Storyline' platform anyway.

It will be interesting comparing this new variant to the Punisher. Someone with better drone skills may choose this instead (I keep leaning to Warrior IIs).

BTW, I agree with the other thread and you need to look at the 'Industry' career agent soonish; All those unused 5-run Tormentor BPCs may suddenly get used. Or are you considering keeping it this way, so a new player has a supply of 'cheap' combat frigates available by bootstrapping a few of their own?

(also, draft post finally restored properly. thanks.)

CCP Goliath you forgot to mention Rifter in the list

ps for those interested: Rifter now have more armor/shield/hull and less capacitor recharge time (125 instead of 187.5). And have rainbows in exhaust.

Well, next time, tell that person they're dumb
We'd prefer you not to skip mentioning changes that don't seem important, since we sometimes disagree.

Has there been any changes to the NPE so far this patch besides the inventory system changes?

List

Yes, why in the world would you want to post lists of code changes to the test server?

Unless you actually want people to test the changed code?

That's just crazy talk!

I have checked last patchdata and looks like there is some new (old but now published) agents in "EpicArcTest Agent" group.
New winmatar epic ark incoming or this is one of those thing that shouldn't be on Sisi at the moment (like Dust commodities for example)

Any comments would be appreciated

Can someone clarify this? T3 cruisers are excluded because they already V3'ed in the past or they will be redone later?
How can we say that ship was V3'ed? PGS texture, new exhaust effect, V3 Fresnel effect, faction color schemes, separate logo sprite or there is something else?

Is there a way to keep the seperate windows for the following: item hanger / ship hanger / cargo bay, instead of it opening it all in one window? (inventory)
it can be done by shift clicking i know, but it does not stay like that once you close and try to re-open the window, is there a way to have it close to or the same pre-inferno?
so i can look at my current cargohold, my ship hanger, and my items again at the same time (3 seperate windows) without having to shift click everytime i dock again.

For the other CCP devs reading this.

If he doesn't watch that video, beat him over the head until he does.

It clearly displays the bare minimum functionality a common player has grown to expect with the ui.


If I undock, with my corp hangar open, my deliveries and my inventory. When I re-dock, all of those windows should re-open and remember their size / position. Multiple windows are necessary.

Since you seem so against the multiple windows and want to force us into one, CLICK the dual pain idea. YOU JUST MIGHT LIKE IT...


Never mind the issues with POS's. I could go on for days with the frustration I have and my entire logistics team who runs 100 POS's. I'm not joking, my corp has 100 pos's and you've made our lives MISERABLE. Thanks!


Get the windows to remember what we had open on re-dock and give us our ship button back on the neocom.
