Inspiration	Posted - 2011.02.12 19:25:00 - [181] Originally by: CCP Masterplan Originally by: Inspiration With respect to remote repairing ships, I applaud the good intentions of CPP. Less pleased am I that they did not read, listen or think things trough and wend to implement something inadequate for the issue at hand. Realize that there are multiple ways a ship actively can support another ship and thus can inherit concord aggression (which is the real issue here): * Remote repairs (shield, armor or hull) * Capacitor transfer * Remote sensor boosting * Remote tracking enhancing * Remote ECCM projection * Remote repair drones * Drones that are assisting a fleet member (what if that fleet member attacks a neutral player by mistake, who gets flagged as criminal?) As I understand only a fix for the first on the list is implemented, thus that won't fix what the Incursion players experienced with concord. If only the first two on this list were fixed (the 2nd is NOT mentioned in the blog), then it covers MOST issues, but not all. And by not fixing the other issues, you limit the tactics that can be used and certain special tactical roles. Take the scimitar for example, a logistics ship and designed to fill the role of remote tracking enhancing. This ship is pretty much downgraded to shield transfer only, without having the capacitor to fill that role properly. [SNIP] To address the "what is/isn't included?" concerns: The changes involve shutting down any assistance effect, not just remote reps. This include cap transfer and so on. It also includes drones that use these effects - your logistics drones will have their effects shut off in the same way as your own ship. So, don't worry. Your scimitar (and her drones) will still be fully effective. Good to read this clarification, do you also have a specific comment on combat drones that are assigned to assist an offending player?
Kimbeau Surveryor Gallente	Posted - 2011.02.12 20:58:00 - [182] Originally by: Im Blue can you fix the ctrl click targeting bug you installed with incursions pls. when you have 2 clients and need to target you used to be able to hold ctrl and click between both clients overview. now you click on the first client, then have to drop ctrl, repress control and then click 2nd client overview, but only after you make the 2nd client active not an issue, well it is when your run 3-4 clients, FIX PLS +1 for this
LoveKebab Caldari LOST IDEA C0VEN	Posted - 2011.02.12 21:51:00 - [183] funny how highsec rr will probably end up not only with rr byt with rsb too... and that gonna be ******ed xVid4PSP MKV Encoding Tutorial
Save the Vargur	Posted - 2011.02.13 10:58:00 - [184] Edited by: Save the Vargur on 13/02/2011 11:00:07 any chance in fixing the lowest dps marauder? isn't it a shame that such a beautiful ship is doing so low dps? i'm talking about all missions. what use is that it can do nice dps against angel when against all other pirate factions it's a struggle?

Royaldo Gallente Kongsberg Vaapenfabrikk Amarr branch. Sev3rance	Posted - 2011.02.13 13:31:00 - [186] Originally by: Two step Oh, one more big request, please please please give me a checkbox to turn off the alt key looks at stuff "feature" that was added in the last patch? I (and many other people) use alt as a push to talk key for voice comms. oh god this also, sort out player npc corps. just do it. and engine trails. and cyno effects. and npc standings. and blasters. and assault frigs missing bonus, black ops.

Kimbeau Surveryor Gallente	Posted - 2011.02.13 15:03:00 - [188] Just wanted to add my enthusiastic support for the OP. More power to your elbow!
Boonaki Caldari Focused Annihilation Detrimental Imperative	Posted - 2011.02.13 18:58:00 - [189] JUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUMP CLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE changes!!!! I've had jump clones locked into old alliance stations for years. I know I could of simply jump clones to the stations to get rid of them, but I've been waiting for this change.
tpwh21	Posted - 2011.02.13 19:33:00 - [190] please fix some of the badly broken things: MAC client - completely fubared since latest patch.

offcopy Caldari OffBeat Creations	Posted - 2011.02.13 19:57:00 - [191] how about changes to kicking/removing corps from alliance making it a vote system needing 51% to pass form all votes this should stop what has happened to not only bob, cva and now -r-. once the 51% is reached the corp is kicked.
Onnen Mentar Murientor Tribe	Posted - 2011.02.14 00:23:00 - [192] - No easy way to read the news. - Unable to save fleet setup settings. - Unintuitive way to get a fleet link into channels.

Your scimitar (and her drones) will still be fully effective. I totally can't see suicide gankers on gates have people providing remote sensorboosting/tracking at all after this change. Of course they will, but this is not as bad as you make it sound :). Fact is they are running multiple SB already and have no problem locking something quick. They might go for better tracking enhancing by using the freed up slots. End result they do a little more DPS due to increased chances of a wrecking hit. Overall, if you let yourself be take by one of them, then you are unprepared and would have died in the old situation just the same! No real impact I'd say!
Lemming Alpha1dash1 Lemmings Online	Posted - 2011.02.14 11:28:00 - [194] Its really annoying when you leave eve and log back on you have to adjust the order of chat channels again, from left to right its local and then your own channels get mixed up everytime. Plus it would be nice windows in the UI stay where you last put them. without having to use the sticky button and even that wont always work. At least loot windows from killed ships open in the same place, most of the times
Svend Smed Aliastra	Posted - 2011.02.14 11:39:00 - [195] Edited by: Svend Smed on 14/02/2011 11:39:37 A little thing that has been driving me nuts for nearly 8 years is the fact that BPC's and BPO's look the same. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, please make them different colors. Also please stop bleedthrough of differnt overview settings from one character to another on the same account.
andrey123	Posted - 2011.02.14 11:42:00 - [196] опять война с нс и ваш супер компьютер умирает опять лаги и падение сервиров уже при локале 500 человек играть не возможно когда уже можно будет насладится боем??
Serynna Gallente Little Garden	Posted - 2011.02.14 19:00:00 - [197] I'm very happy with all the little fixes. I will be even happier if this turns out to be the start of a habit. I would like to take a moment to request improvements to the drone UI: I would like to be able to see the condition of drones that are docked in the drone bay. I would like to be able to launch groups of drones with hotkeys. I would like a simpler method of swapping a damaged drone for a spare during combat. Also, This: Originally by: Darth Sith Move the "reprocess" and "repackage" apart from each other in the right click menu... IMO .. Reprocess should be by itself .. down at the bottom of the menu seperated by a line :) And This: Originally by: Two step 1) Allow me to rename cans in POS hangers 2) Allow me to take and put stuff in cans in POS hangers 3) Allow me to repackage stuff in POS hangers
Lusulpher Sinister Elite Supremacy.	Posted - 2011.02.15 09:52:00 - [198] -AFK mode for my portrait in channels. Greys out my face as it is viewed in that chann. Possible to add a timer when people rightclick new option[Show Timer]. -Floating Message Of The Day icon, when you click on the bright little thing it expands to show full message. Then it grays out, until updated[Blink On is default, and not changeable]. -Floating fleet link in channel is is linked in, floats below MOTD float. Only 3 fleets stored by channel at any time. Combat -Leaving fleet gives boss to a person with Leadership V, first. Got to use that Charisma-based skillgroup at all times. Also, Fleet might need that bonus, nevermind, Fleets have never needed Leadership bonii.. Industry -Reprocess window shows no Show Info on the lefthand list. -Remove show all button in Reprocessing Window. It is redundant. -'Cargo full' message locks interface[no lock interface windows, EVER!!!!!] Trade -Trade window Notifies via sound notification[inmyEVE!] that other person is waiting for you to accept Trade on your end. -Corp/Maintenance Hanger has to be reopened each Session change, unlike standard Cargohold window! FIX! See what you can do about containers in hold. -Market Order highlight, UI -Tactical overlay is very white on white contrast...adjust. -In Tactical OVerlay Mode: Display EWAR/ECM Effect from targets, above the ship icon in space, off/on the overview if that option is selected. -In Tactical Overlay Mode: 1-Clicking on an target shows a line that measures Tranversal. 2-Player can set this measurement to a colour code setting. Red is High, Yellow is Moderate, Green is Good. This data is already available. Just not presented well on overview. No.2 is not mandatory. -Adding bookmark to ingame browser makes scary sound...make non-scary sound please. -Tint the teal colour on MWDs to match the violet colour on Warp Scramblers. Correlates Scramming with MWD ability. Intuitive.[I understand the point of redrawing the symbol, but missing the point of confusion for newer players is frustrating] -Critical Consumer Peasant Creative Customer Person 7
Taldaran	Posted - 2011.02.15 11:16:00 - [199] Very nice to see some long standing issues getting sorted.
Malcanis Caldari Vanishing Point. The Initiative.	Posted - 2011.02.15 14:34:00 - [200] Originally by: Mashie Saldana Originally by: CCP Masterplan To address the "what is/isn't included?" concerns: The changes involve shutting down any assistance effect, not just remote reps.

Your scimitar (and her drones) will still be fully effective. I totally can't see suicide gankers on gates have people providing remote sensorboosting/tracking at all after this change. What's the point of remote-repping someone who's been permajammed and instaneuted? Malcanis' Law: Whenever a mechanics change is proposed on behalf of "new players", that change is always to the overwhelming advantage of richer, older players.

Fridge Chesthair	Posted - 2011.02.16 08:34:00 - [201] Originally by: Darth Sith PLZ PLZ Move the "reprocess" and "repackage" apart from each other in the right click menu... IMO .. Reprocess should be by itself .. down at the bottom of the menu seperated by a line :) Speaking of context menus, I've had a number of ideas for ages. : IN SPACE: * Identify entries under the "My Places:" heading (bookmarks and bookmark folders) with an icon/color/indentation to visually separate them from constant entries like asteroid and station * Remove "add waypoint" selection from the context menus of many in-space objects (LCO, npc ships, asteroids) * Remove "set name" from wreck context menu * Remove "Broadcast: Jump To" from stargate context menu * Move "Show Info" selection to top of NPC ship context menu (for consistency) * Visually identify the "Use Fitting service" selection on the capital ship context menu with an icon/color/indentation to separate it from the standard entries * Visually identify group of navigation commands like "Approach", "Warp to within", and "Keep at Range" with an icon/color/indentation to separate it from other entries : DRONE WINDOW : * Remove the collapse/expand option from the Drones in local space context menu * Remove the collapse/expand option from the Drones in bay context menu * Move "abandon drone" to a pop-over menu, and visually identify it with an icon/color/indentation to reinforce its potential hazard. * Visually identify the "Assist" and "Guard" pop-over menus with an icon/color/indentation : CHAT WINDOW MEMBER LIST: * Visually identify the fleet pop-over menu with an icon/color/indentation to separate it from the standard entries * Move "Give Money" and "Trade" into new group (away from corporation/alliance specific entries like "View Member Details") * Add "Alliance" entry to Auto-link sub-menu * Remove "Show Info" from the fleet pop-over menu : INVENTORY MENUS : * Add "Add to Places" to context menu of physical bookmarks * Move "Reprocess" to a pop-over menu, vertically separate it from other common tasks, and visually identify it with an icon/color/indentation to reinforce its potential hazard. : CHARACTER SHEET : * Remove "Open Group Window" entry from jump clone context menu * Move "Destroy" entry from the jump clone context menu to a pop-over menu, and visually identify it with an icon/color/indentation to reinforce its potential hazard. * Add "View Kill Information" to kill and loss entry (Combat Log) context menus. : FITTING WINDOW : * Add "Charge" pop-over submenu for turrets, launchers, script taking modules * Add "Show Info" entry to "Charge" sub-menu and I'm sure I can think of more in the future.
Fridge Chesthair	Posted - 2011.02.16 09:06:00 - [202] Originally by: Lusulpher AFK mode for my portrait in channels. They would have to actually add an afk mode before they can have your portrait reflect t. Originally by: Lusulpher Floating 'Message Of The Day' icon, when you click on the bright little icon Which icon? Originally by: Lusulpher -Floating Fleet Link in channel it is linked in, floats below MOTD float. Maybe after they implement the new UI code? Originally by: Lusulpher Mail notification will now chime repeatedly How about chime once, and flash until read (like the character sheet button after skill completion). Originally by: Lusulpher Currently i can stay cloaked for weeks. I think the hours of 11:00 to 12:00 GMT might have a word with your cloak. Originally by: Lusulpher I CANNOT CHANGE SCRIPTS/AMMO WHILE CLOAKED IN A T2 CLOAK COMBAT SHIP. So, uncloak. Originally by: Lusulpher -DDs need AOE script. Mmmm.... I think many people are happy that most sub-caps don't have to worry about DDs Originally by: Lusulpher -Trade window Notifies via sound notification A sound notification or larger visual notification would be appreciated Originally by: Lusulpher -Corp/Maintenance Hanger has to be reopened each Session change A legitimate point Originally by: Lusulpher -Tactical overlay is very white on white contrast...adjust. The opacity of the overlay rings needs to be reduced, and yes the white lines on white lines could use some cleaning up. Originally by: Lusulpher -In Tactical OVerlay Mode: Display EWAR/ECM Effect from targets, above the ship icon in space, off/on the overview if that option is selected. EWAR notifications in the brackets view is a good idea Originally by: Lusulpher 1-Clicking on an target shows a line that measures Tranversal. 2-Player can set this measurement to a colour code setting. The targeting UI is distracting enough already. I can understand the thought of changing from the square bracket + vert&horizontal markers to something less complicated, though.

At least loot windows from killed ships open in the same place, most of the times On this note, I would like new chat windows from "Start conversation" to not appear pre-stacked in the same slate as other chat windows. When I run multiple slates with chat windows in each, I always have a hard time noticing when the conversation is actually accepted and the new chat is started.
Rutger Janssen Xanadu Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2011.02.16 16:02:00 - [205] Will team BFF also be looking at bug reports to fix small annoyances? Kinda weird that official defects, eventhough small take over a year (and counting) to fix...

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, please make them different colors. I agree with changing the way the BPO's and BPC's look....another option would be to add an "O" or "C" to the top left corner of the BP sort of like the T2 has a II. That would make sorting so much easier. Thanks CCP for all you do for the game...LOVE it!! C-ya among the stars!!

Ariane VoxDei	Posted - 2011.02.17 02:14:00 - [208] Originally by: Mashie Saldana I totally can't see suicide gankers on gates have people providing remote sensorboosting/tracking at all after this change. Whyever not? The rule is that the effect just gets shut off after the guy with the guns get GCC flagged. Until the gunship opens up, it is safe to boost locktime and provide tracking. And when it does, well the system is now kind and carebearing, it just shorts your modules instead of adding you to the list of concord targets. TBH it is in effect riskfree to provide this kind of ganking assistance. So, you can still get boosted locktime and once it is locked who cares if the booster gets shut off, the GCCd gunship is dead concord meat soon. At least the first volley can be track assisted, unless they have gone way deep into the combat code to delay the hit calculation until the tracking boost has been removed. Some field testing seems to be required to work out if: * trackboost all volleys, until such time as the tracking link would have cycled down anyway - the non-shorting, just off-shutting scenario. * trackboost only first volley. The shorting scenario, with GCC only being applied after initial agression. * no trackboost - the shorting scenario, with GCC getting injected in front of the fire request. My guess is the first or second, as the last would involve more messing with the order of things, by catching the fire request and removing any buffs before doing actual hit/damage calculations. As opposed to one unsanctioned volley landing and then going: aha, I saw you shooting someone without agression rights or a wardec, now I take away your assists and drop concord on you.

What's the point of remote-repping someone who's been permajammed and instaneuted? Now you can safely sensor-boost someone who is going to suicide gank without having to fear CONCORD on the boosting character. You really didn't understand that?!
