tbh, 3 minutes logoff timer is not good in PvP combat. 15 - 20 minutes is a better option (even BEFORE hitpoint increases)
far far too long, if it takes you 20mins to kill one ship you need to go back to flight school.
The reasons people need to logoff are varied from saving their ship to a real life emergency or a ISP connection drop, if ships hung around for that long, anyone with a scan probe launcher would easily find them.
The logoff timer of 3 minutes is fine as it is, maybe scaled to 5 minutes IF they are locked by another player and maintained at 2 minutes if against npc's.
I would not mind if Oveur could say what kind of changes they have in mind. I already have some of them noted down, but nothing concrete, do ya think TomB could hit us with his good old explanation posts of old to give us something to mull over while we eat our turkey?

Feature patches are planned for release every month with bug patches inbetween.
The next patch is scehduled for mid january. I would hazard a guess, that EW/Missiles will unlikely make that patch due to the complexity of the system but perhaps finally changes to the artilleries, however items like HP increase or ship tweaking probably will make it in if they decide.

Pre-Exodus deployment cycle was a patch roughly every month or less. There isn't going to be a patch before the end of this year due to the holidays. So, I would think mid-January would be the rough timeframe for the third Exodus patch.

Regarding missile defense what about a Phalanx type of weapon? (US Navy weapon). It shoots thousands of projectiles a minute and is designed to break up missiles?
Surely some kind of eve-equiv gun could be developed?
as long as I can get a giant mirror to put in front of my ship for your lasers!
