Well my present for CCP is no extra income from my accounts (all cancelled, except primary so far) First the idea of plex for remap, which didn't make it (yet) and now this. So all I can do is say goodbye as I don't like the road CCP is following now with dumbing down eve and making it more attractive for rich kiddies that don't know the value of money. ---------------------------------- None of yet! |

Does this mean then that learning implants are still valid?
P.S. Awesome idea btw, we need more people in this game, but I hope the lag wont get worse
I'll refer to CCP Hammer's post:
Originally by: CCP Hammer I saw a few questions about implants. Attribute boosting implants are not changing. All that is changing is listed in the blog.
So yes, nothing is changing with implants nor the cerebral booster that comes with the new EVE box.

Originally by: Rex Rotham For all the bashing CCP takes, I think they do in an incredible job.
I was very impressed when CCP made the decision to implement the 24 hour learning queue, and I'm equally as impressed with their decision to remove learning skills.
To those who don't appreciate CCP, you have a gaming studio that actually LISTENS to what the player base wants. They obviously can't make everyone happy but some things are so overwhelmingly obvious that the majority of sensible players want it - this is one of those cases.
Great job CCP, stay awesome.

Originally by: Rian O'Shea This change does not in any way affect our attribute remap, does it?
will put your max stat at 32 (15+12+5) instead of 33 (15+10+5)*1.1, and your secondary stat should be 26 (9+12+5) instead of 26.4 (9+10+5)*1.1
so I guess not "awesome" but I'm not really all that annoyed by it, I mean we used to not even be able to remap.

Figures. Just as I have ~8 hours left to finishing the last of my L5 learning skill, the news hits
I'm a tiny bit miffed at the chosen addition value, 12 to each attribute.
Before the change, you had a max of (39 base + 25 basics + 25 advanceds + 25 implants)*1.1 learning = 125.4 max total. After the change, you will have 39+60=99 base + 25 implants = 124 max total, or an overall loss of 1.4 attribute points. Ok, it's not a HUGE drop, but its still a drop nevertheless.
IMO, they should have only removed the 10 attribute-based learnings and added 10 to each basic value, but left the "learning" skill in place (the only "oddball" one). OR, they could add 12 to each attribute and give us 2 freely distributable unassigned attribute points (for a grand total of +0.6 max attribute points).
...
Oh well. Not like we could do much about it. _

It's actually a slight buff for everyone not at +10 from learning skills. And slight nerf for everyone at... :P -- Thanks CCP for cu |

so is it more beneficial to re map before or after Learning SP removal? Or does it not matter?

On the other hand the reimbursed SP will mean that you have more total non-learning SP for a very long time indeed.

Noone seems to have said that there would be a forced remap. Dunno where you guys are getting that from. Also, you can't have achura stats *and* be suffering from not quite perfect remapped stats. That's dumb. You either have achura stats, or you've remapped to pri/sec, not both.

How long will we have to redistribute the SP? I am still saving up for all of the books needed to get into a carrier and even though 5.7M SP isn't a WHOLE lot, it's gonna be a nice start down that training path.

I have seen it asked few times, but no answer so far. What about those with base charisma 3 currently. Will all characters be converted into 20/20/20/20/19 or will we keep current base attributes and just get +12 added to each one we currently have ?

I've only been playing for 3 weeks. Based on my own judgement, I decided to concentrate on developing learning skills first.
I'm happy that the SP I spent will be refunded because it represents 988K out of 1.4M I've spent so far.
What I am not happy about, is that I've spent 9.2M ISK on these skills and it appears I won't be reimbursed for them. For characters that have played a while, this probably doesn't seem like much. But for me it represents about 75-85% of all the ISK I've made to this date.
I feel like I've wasted 3 weeks worth of missions with nothing much to show for it. My initial time that came with the game is almost up and I'm now reconsidering whether to subscribe.
I realise that you don't want to inject 1.6? 16? Trillion ISK into the economy and that it is difficult to draw a line if you reimburse some but not others. But for those of us where it represents such an enormous percentage of earnings to date, I would ask you to consider an equitible solution.
Many thanks. SimParadox

Throw the points into drones/energy emmisions/capital repair modules etc.
That or, jump drive cal or fuel conservation. If you ever plan on getting a jump freighter, having JDC V and JFC V are awesome and skills you'd hate to train into.
I'm going to put my points into skills I want, but don't wanna train up. I'm thinking of dumping them into leadership skills.

ill have the same amount of sp's as now and will always train slower. ok its only 620k a year but i dont see why just because they want to dumb the game down it has to cost a long time customer anything

The vocal few do not represent the opinions of the majority. Basing decisions on that is a terrible idea.
CCP listening to the community usually falls to listening to those vocal few, which isn't CCP's fault entirely.
They do a lot of great things but what really drew me to eve is the
Choices and consequences
There was the choice to learn all the learning skills to what ever level each player deemed fit. If you didn't you lost out on training time in the long run but got more toys in the short run and visa versa.
Removing these just makes me wonder what those vocal few will choose to scream about next? Navigation skills? Everyone NEEDS Navigation 5 and Warp Drive Operation 5 and they offer little noticeable change while playing the game. Same goes for all the generic skills, Rapid Firing etc. Ok, some are prerequisites for other skills\modules but removing some of the choice\consequences opens the doors to these requests.
CCP aren't going to turn heel on this after announcing it in a blog so I begrudgingly accept this fate but I'd like to know, as others have asked, what was the thinking behind this?
Also, a history lesson would be nice. Why were the learning skills put in place? What were they meant to solve? Did they do that? Why wasn't an attribute boost considered instead of the skills?
That's obviously a request to a dev not to randoms on the forums --
Nothing is worthless, you may have gotten it for free but it still has an inherent value

Originally by: Tereliss Verr How does this effect the full set of +5's i have?
They will be worth 25 attribute points rather than 27.5 (if you had Learning V trained).
Originally by: wizard87 Something I'm unclear about:
Will remaps still be possible once per year as default?
If not, how do you find out your BASE attributes again?
Their insistence that it won't change aside, I would guess that this is the second part of the christmas gift.
Anyway, your base attributes will now be 17 + whatever you attribute points you put into them through the remap. Your new max base attribute will be 27; the new "min-maxed" attribute combination will be 27 primary + 21 secondary. Your max SP gain/h will be 2700 instead of 2772.
Originally by: Battlecheese You guys do realise that the whole skills bit used to be an interesting bit of the game, right? Back when you had to make choices, schedule skills so you'd be around to put another one on etc?
Learning skills were never interesting ù they were a pointless metagaming mechanic that added nothing to the game. Learning them was complete balls, but completely necessary in order not to make the rest of the skill system balls as well. Now that they're gone, the skill system is all interesting and automatically non-ball:y again.
Originally by: TheBlueMonkey Choices and consequences
There was the choice to learn all the learning skills to what ever level each player deemed fit.
Exactly: choices and consequences. The consequence for not training them was so profound that there in reality was no choice. Now people can actually start choosing again. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |
