Jada Maroo	Posted - 2010.08.26 23:11:00 - [1] Edited by: Jada Maroo on 26/08/2010 23:11:18 Just wondering what people have heard/read and especially those peeps who buy the Eve magazine thing if they have any info on the goodies coming with Invasion or whatever they're gonna call it. So far I've got (speculation based on CCP forum comments): * Some sort of PVE/PVP combination mission or low sec, not much detail on how it's supposed to work. * End to mindless click-a-thon for PI, more PI features? * Random mission generation or greater variation in the current missions - hopefully the former * New avatars to ready us for Incarna * End to 100% refining efficiency in stations, only possible at POSes Anything else?
Stick Cult	Posted - 2010.08.26 23:12:00 - [2] All the others have at least tiny rumors to support them, but wtf is this one? Quote: * End to 100% refining efficiency in stations, only possible at POSes Originally by: CCP Tuxford my bad. Rest assured I'm being ridiculed by my co-workers.

Its unconfirmed if we will be getting full body avatars this winter. Too be honest I think the new ones look too similar, but thats probably because the ones we have now are so wildly varied.

Eternum Praetorian PWNED Factor Elite	Posted - 2010.08.27 01:42:00 - [14] Its ugly as hell. Why would you want to look like that?

Promote more player made corps with poses instead npc usage to push towards total player driven gaming.

I would think YOU would be happy about the opportunity to reconstruct your face. Whereas my 'pretty' status will be less exclusive. ==================== ~/~ Sultan of Buruni
Lance Fighter Amarr	Posted - 2010.08.27 04:15:00 - [19] Quoted from random thread someplace: Originally by: ~~Tobias Sjodin~~ CCP Sjodin The secret 2010 expansion, entitled 'Invasion' allows EVE-capsuleers the ability to join the nefarious pirate factions of EVE and marks the revival of the low-sec high seas, expanding low-sec by creating more gaps in the trade routes now filled with 0.1->0.4 space. With added factions to faction warfare, such as Sansha's Nation, Guristas, Serpentis and Angels the player can embark on a faction warfare career like no other. With new trades such as black market running, ransom mechanics, bribes and the new 'sloop' class gate tackler; specially designed for fast tackles at gates CCP marks a new epoch in their online game. Spend years on developing a career as a pirate, and only dedicated -10 and high ransom will gain you the opportunity to join the infamous Dread Guristas, Shadow Serpentis, Domination and ranks of the True Sansha. But this all is not a silver spoon in the mouths of the morally depraved. Concord's finest have also opened player recruitment, allowing players to become involved in the largest anti-pirate move in the history of New Eden. Gallente and Minmatar allows players to join the 'police academy' and plenty of rewards in forms of bounties, cargo confiscation, and wiretaps (more info available on that feature in Tuxford's latest devblog) await those who wish to fight the decadence awaiting in this winter's patch. Finally some of the concord ships will now be available with promotion and acceptance among the player populated policemen of EVE. We hope that all of you will appreciate this expansion, and note that we managed to also identify and squish the dreaded lag through thorough testing on SiSi. Enjoy Invasion this winter. Originally by: CCP Shadow Have you ever wished you could have prevented a train wreck before it actually happened? I need to stop this one before the craziness begins.

Enjoy Invasion this winter. which was promptly followed, in the same post, with an "I wish". Tbh, it sounds like a pretty **ty expansion. Lowsec buff is good, but his stuff sounds meh... Really though, why CCP Sjodin? Originally by:** CCP Tuxford my bad. Rest assured I'm being ridiculed by my co-workers.
Lance Fighter Amarr	Posted - 2010.08.27 04:19:00 - [21] Originally by: Stick Cult Really though, why CCP Sjodin? because ccp tobias is lame? Sjodin actually sounds almost cool Originally by: CCP Shadow Have you ever wished you could have prevented a train wreck before it actually happened?

Either it went down the memory hole or I'm just not searching for the right terms, but I can't find it. I seem to remember it being in a thread about ice products. It's possible a dev said something they shouldn't and they deleted it.

Shinde Kudasai Exemplar Autonomy	Posted - 2010.08.27 05:24:00 - [25] Linkage is the thread about the "pirate expansion" dreaming Soj was spinning.
Jada Maroo	Posted - 2010.08.27 05:35:00 - [26] Originally by: Stick Cult Well ice refines for 100% at a POS... Well the thread had gone off on a tangent about refining yields in general and the uselessness of refining modules on POSes. A dev chimed in and said that, in retrospect, 100% yield in NPC stations was a mistake and that they'd be addressing it. I took that to mean in the next release. I wish I could find the post.
JC Anderson Caldari State Protectorate	Posted - 2010.08.27 05:42:00 - [27] They said there would be a new trailer at whatever that game convention is that they are attending. So it shouldn't be too long before we know a bit more about the upcoming expansion.
Venkul Mul Gallente	Posted - 2010.08.27 05:43:00 - [28] Edited by: Venkul Mul on 27/08/2010 05:47:42 * Some sort of PVE/PVP combination mission or low sec, not much detail on how it's supposed to work. I haven't noticed anything about this. Source? * End to mindless click-a-thon for PI, more PI features? CCP has a team working there, mostly on the Dust<->PI rapport. * Random mission generation or greater variation in the current missions - hopefully the former I haven't noticed anything about this. Source? * New avatars to ready us for Incarna Confirmed in several post by Devs, probably they will be full body avatars. * End to 100% refining efficiency in stations, only possible at POSes Originally by: Jada Maroo I wish I could find the post. From memory something on that tune was said in the last Icelandic meeting with the CSM. I don't recall any indication on a possible timescale for the change.
Glyken Touchon Gallente Independent Alchemists	Posted - 2010.08.27 11:04:00 - [29] Originally by: Pesky LaRue Originally by: Jada Maroo * End to 100% refining efficiency in stations, only possible at POSes First I've heard of this - source, please? http://www.eveonline.com/council/transcripts/2010/CSM_CCP_Meetings_23-25_06_2010.pdf Page 26 Originally by: CCP response The whole reprocessing system needs an overhaul and individual towers will not be added or receive a refining boost in the foreseeable future. To phrase this in a bigger perspective the station refining being at 100% might be the source of the problem, not the lack of more efficient POS tower. Limiting the game-play by having a æperfectÆ outcome with little effort is a route that CCP believes needs to be revisited.

Limiting the game-play by having a æperfectÆ outcome with little effort is a route that CCP believes needs to be revisited. "a route that CCP believes needs to be revisited" .. this doesn't mean it's already in the next expansion, it may easily take 4 years .. If EVERYTHING CCP is looking into or even said they will look into will be in the next expansion ...
