I love EVE with all its faults. This is a list of the top ten things CCP could fix but hasnÆt. IÆm not complaining and life as we know it isnÆt going to end if CCP doesnÆt address these things. Even so there are some things in game that are always priority number two on the list, and never quite reach top spot. I thought IÆd find out what things people have long wanted fixed but havenÆt been, not as a complaint to CCP but out of interest. Of course this is MY list, and different people have different things they want fixed. WhatÆs your top 10 things?
- Rockets rockets rockets.
- Minor factions using only Amrr/Gallente/Caldari/Minmatar stations. Most of the minor factions have stations or battletowers of their own. ItÆs odd, flying through SanshaÆs space, seeing Sansha towers with big ôCaldari Stateö logos painted on the side. It seems all of New Eden was simply and expediently populated with the common station types, and the minor factions never received their proper replacement s. Ammatar, Syndicate stations and especially Blood Raider stations are really nice.
- Game machanics favour acquiring standings with lawful faction much more than standings with lawless factions. Standings and faction with lawless organizations is oh so broke.
- No word on the Jove. No apparent official policy on the Jove. No communication on the Jove; pretend they donÆt exist, no one mention them. This isnÆt really an in game item, but there is interest in the playing community. So CCP does its client base a big disservice by glossing over the problems with Jovian content. Be frank and open.
- No Interbus Station. Some minor factions need more stations. Guristas are all over New Eden but less than a handful of stations? Syndicate too?
- Re-Introduce SOCT agents or other prominent faction types.
- Re-Introduce the ability for players to choose their NPC within reason (from a list)
- FW
- Better ingame support for Storyline / Events. For example when a character is prominent and mentioned in a chronicle, why isnÆt that characters name banned from being used by players. When an object is mentioned as existing in a chronicle, why isnÆt it put in game? Etc.
- Jove agents exist. Jove avatars exist. Jove agents in game (and there are some) be given Jovian avatars. Jove agents donÆt look Jovian.
Ok, admittedly some of the above are pretty weak, but I wanted to be positive and if truth beknown, there's likely less than 10 things that are on my list. Even so - what's your Top 10 Things CCP could have fixed but hasn't list?
(It's gotta be something you'd like fixed, but won't quit the game if it never gets fixed!)

To be fair that list used to be waaaaaaaay longer. Didn't the old issues page list nearly a thousand problems that need some attention? I think this is the stuff ccp is pointing to anyways when it talks about the 18 month thingy.

Woah was my first reaction on seeing Zeba's list. But to be fair I said the things on your list had to be "Things you wouldn't quit Eve over if they never got fixed.
Many of the things in that list are more important that that I think.

I was ****ed that the CSM took off modular starbases from their final list for proposal (after that whole voting thing). I don't care if CCP has denied it at least twice, I WANT IT! Make it an expansion if you must! I'd be happy!

1. Rockets (10 minutes, go!) 2. PI Interface Clicking (they were JUST WORKING ON IT!!! Why release it in such a state!?) 3. Fittings on ships that need it (Augoror, Nighthawk, Omen, Caracal, etc) 4. Assault frigs (to be fair, they tried once and everyone screamed it was overpowered) 5. FW bugs and exploits (like the remote repair faction standings loss bug and the timer bugs/exploits) 6. Overall agent quality (including LP store) by faction (Amarr/Caldari >>>>>>> Minmatar/Gallente) 7. Moon goo balancing (Tech) 8. Sov requiring massive blobs (Come on, lower the HP on those sov structures a bit!) 9. Putting probes on the overview (10 minutes, go!) 10. PI rollout (reprocessing, NPC orders)
I could go on and on... but really they're not doing such a bad job as I think they've just overextended and need to take some time to fix some of their old content rather than creating new content.

That's a good one.
I wish they'd also remove the shading from a systems mid-plane. When you probe below the systems plane you can't see the damn probes.

Just realised I was posting in two of your threads...
What is the point of having probes on overview though? By the time they matter, when you're being scanned, they're going to be AU away.

The ideas was that if they are in the overview you can probe down probes (and destroy them).
Right now probes are invincible!

Shouldn't have started with rockets. Cheapened the thread.
I don't have anything against rockets, mind you, just think it's pretty low on the list of things which the game badly needs, yet people won't shut up about it.

Wat? SKUNK posted that list and it was the players who populated it. I just commented that its actually far shorter than it used to be.

You cannot scan be down *TODAY* without me knowing about it and taking action before you can warp in on me. People have tried. But it'd be really nice if I didn't have to sort through the last 2 hours of wrecks to see if there's a probe out.

Point is that is a 5 minute fix, and they are oh so broken right now.

Its a mixed bag really .. if you fly caldari/khanid frigates / tech 2 frigates or anything that size on a regular basis it's a liability not being fixed.
If you fly other stuff - its not an issue on your radar.

Yea having the in system shaders on probes handles sucks in a big way.

But compared to every other type of weapon there's very few ships offering rocket bonuses. That's why i see it as something which wouldn't impact very many players. No pun intended.

My gut says there's more ships affected by rockets than HAMs. As an example. Just because YOU think that half the frigs in eve should unduly suck doesn't mean that they really should.

I don't have a grudge against half the frigs in EVE at all, and i think you're missing my point.
Sure rockets could use some love, but is it "the most important thing evar!1!!"? Not by a long shot.

Never said it was most important, said it was an easy fix and overdue.

Well, it may not be the most important thing ever in regards to gameplay, but right now it may be the most important thing ever in regards to the reputation of CCP.
Rockets, while they are not a hugely used type of offensive module, are quite possibly the most broken thing in this game, and have been for nearly two years now. That, coupled with the huge player outcry to fix them, and with the ease of which they can be fixed, makes us all wonder why CCP has completely ignored it for so long. This either points to the incompetence of CCP, or that they just don't care what about what their paying customers think anymore, either of which doesn't look good on them.
But, I digress.

Sure, maybe in isolated situations in EVE the pirate faction having their own station makes sense.

That has nothing to do with it being "long overdue" instead of the most important thing ever. You're really reaching here.

There's room for disagreement. Some personal preference is possible. So rockets aren't on top of YOUR list of things CCP hasn't fixed but could have (that you'd liked fixed, but can live if they aren't) - that's cool.
What is at the top of your list? Or what IS your list?

How does your logic there mesh with the reality that they have also come up with some of the most effective warships (far greater than their state counterparts) in all of New Eden?
If the Cynabal, Nightmare, etc. are products of pirate industry... i'd say they could whip up one of their own stations.

And to add to what Irae Ragwan is saying .. its like building a house ..if you have a budget you can build anything within your budget.
Fact is that CCP has designed models for Sanshas, Syndicate, Ammatar, Blood Raiders etc (they do have Sansha's battlestations) Why not put them in game. From the perspective of the game Sanshas are more prevalent than Amarr Navy or customs officers. Sanshas own Stain. The are in just about every belt in Amarr territory, high sec and low. They have secret outposts where mission runners meet them. Sansha's are not poor!
So give them their battle station, rather than a Caldari one which has a Caldari logo on the side.

All the more proof that thier industry is geared more towards combat ship building and supplying those ships to thier combat groups instead of building their own stations. Sorry, just playing Devil's Advocate. Honestly, to me it makes sense that they wouldn't have as many of their own stations, but obviously others have a difference of opinion.
