Mornin' guys,
since some time I love scanning High and LowSec for sigs, ded-sites and normal combat sites. Now after the patch I got like 60 - 70 Systems in a row (the past 2 days) and got not a single radar from it. Now I just wanted to ask if you guys occured the same? Are they still spawning, those high- and lowsec combat and DED Sites? Did some of you got some?
Or am I just unlucky, that CCP hyped scanning with that (sorry: '****ty' *g*) dev-blog?
Anyways. In the end if everybody scans now, I just make a pause and come back when the regular playerbase got bored...

All sites are still spawning, at least in the areas that I scan.
I think you might be scanning in bad areas or at a bad time. Also there's way more players scanning on the weekends. Do your exploration in systems that have low to no population count that are located away from the major Trade and Mission hubs.
If anything, it seems to me that there is a higher chance to gain escalation from the combat sites now. I wouldn't 'Pause' on the exploration because there will just be more players scanning for sites by the time you get back to doing exploration.

Comparing my notebook of sig IDs from the previous weeks something is very different, at least where and when I'm scanning (minmatar highsec mostly). I know the drill, scan in the quiet areas, etc - I've brought in quite a bit in the weeks up to the patch. I will write down IDs for a fairly large area, and re-probe them faster with the list only to find nothing new. Even with a lot of people getting back into exploration, it doesn't mean there should be less sites, they will just get completed and respawned more often and your chances of finding a site at the same time as someone else is better. Some sites are still spawning, but it really seems like something is changed.
I'll admit I could just be having a really bad streak of luck, but some of these areas I visit are almost guaranteed to have a pile of untouched one-probe combat sites and even those seem to be in short supply. |

Well, I kept the strange feeling. Anyway, if you guys got signatures of Combat Sites and DED Sites in eigher High or Low (this is what I scan for several moths now, I like it ;)) it must be the Hype CCP made with those changes to 0.0 - without increasing the numer of sites in High and Low. Again, I do sites for a long time without break now, and always got my 4-5 sites, weekend or not. Now again after about 30 systems in High and about 15 Low Sek Systems I found nothing - exactly nothing. Whatever it is, I feel like bleeting, so better shout down the comp. CCP you made my day ;)

I've had bad luck like that in lowsec. Scanned for 6 hours, nothing, not a single combat site. That was 12 systems. Radars, mags and gravs...useless for me, I want COMBAT.
This was a few weeks ago.

I¦ve been scanning caldari before and after the patch, and i¦m sure they have changed. To me it looks like we only get the sites that spawn after the daily server downtime, and once they are cleared i have not seen anything new spawn.
I tried going to gallente space last night, and i did see anom¦s there so i don¦t think this bugs affects all sites/areas.

I have scanned all weekend, and have had one combat site yesterday and one on Friday, this is scanning 15-20 low sec systems per day, before the patch I would have seen maybe 5-10 combat sites per day.
Both these sites were normal combat sites(not DED's), they both escalated into null sec, but dropped nothing. :(
I'm not sure if it's more people scanning, or have CCP cut the number of combat sites, maybe there is a problem with respawns.
I have talked to a few explores in my region and they all say the same thing, exploring is ****E after the last patch.

Confirming what we all know: CCP mucked up.
I was exploring with 4 accounts last night.. one in caldari hisec, one in gallente hisec, one in the Great Wildlands nullsec region (systems of -0.1 to -0.4) and another trawling through losec in amarr.
In over 100 systems I found 43 wormholes (All K162's, which are compulsory under game mechanics), 3 gravi sites (2 of which were empty), 2 hisec anomalies (both empty) and 3 nullsec anomalies (all of which my poor explo alt out there couldn't run due to the fact that I've not had time to buy another ship out there yet... was checking for comparison rate to hisec/losec)
My losec alt found NO signatures. In about 20 systems. No signatures, no anomalies. Not even a WH.
I'm about 90% sure that CCP have either dropped respawn rates to 0 in hisec, and in doing so have completely removed a career from the game.
I petitioned it at the end of 4 hours searching through systems just out of sheer disgust.

Edited by: Mr LaForge on 10/04/2011 12:27:17 Something I noticed that was gone were the noob exploration sites that you can fine on the ship scanner.
I also had a radar that I could not pin down whereas before I had scanned down dozens of them.

Noticed that aswell. I made my daily run through Paragon Soul (nullsec) yesterday at 16oo and found nothing in almost the whole region. Made another run at 02oo (at that time it wasn't for other people doing everything.. the whole region was basically empty because everyone was asleep) and found nothing in almost the whole region again.
It seems to me the same way.. Signatures only appear after downtime and do not respawn. Or maybe they are just partially not respawning.. But something is definately wrong. My stupid corpmates didn't believe me but i guess they will soon enough.

Pull statistics out your ass some more why don't you? CCP's not just going to remove a whole bunch of game content like idiots, it's obviously a bug or an oversight.

The Great Depression of 2011 has started!
It's not just high and low sec exploration sites that have been broken, it's all 0.0 sites too.
Up here in 0.0 land sites ONLY spawn ONCE after downtine and that's it. We have noticed this change for five consecutive days.
We have no more 6/10s at all and very few other combat sites.
This is not speculation any more it's been confirmed by our resident ninja plexer, a professional site ninja who scans three regions a day (over 100 systems.

I will laugh (and then cry) if it turns out all of these sites are respawning in one system someplace at the back end of space. Some lucky noob is probably seeing 3000 sites at once and doesn't know where to begin.

no chance of this we 0.0 dwellers scan every system in our regions...there are no dead-end uncked systems...0.0 plexs got hit by a heavy ccp nerf bat

Pre-apocrypha probing was 100% worth doing in high sec. Exploration took a HUGE nerf once they changed to the new mechanics. And by huge nerf, I really mean colossal nerf.

I must admit that seeing all of these negative posts about exploration sites being nerfed is discouraging to say the least.

This is probably more true than what people think or realize. Either that or I must be really lucky.
I'm going to recheck my exploration routes again today to make sure. These routes have always been guaranteed to have multiple signatures in each system. I'll be sure and post my report to either confirm or deny this Exploration Nerf theory.

Morning guys,
as far as I can tell yesterday after DT there were Combat Sigs and DED4-sigs in Low Sec Space. This morging again, like 20 systems in High and 12 in Low havent had any Combat site or DED Site. The only sigs there were WHs and one Gravi.
So, I personally don't trust in a nerf. I think CCP just broke it in any way. Or noobed it, if you want to say so. Anyway. I did my petition and hope they will look at it pretty fast...
Habve a nice week.

Sites are still spawning.
Just like every single patch, if you get a lull in activity due to Randomness of exploration, its all "OMFG NERF"
NO. It is not nerfed. ...Then when you stopped to think about it. All you really said was Lalala. |

No sites are not spawning apart from after DT, the only thing that spawns in the 23hours are wormholes until the next DT either a bug or nerf unsure as no one from CCP has replied on this.

You are literally one of the dumbest explorers out there.
Seriously, anyone who suggests something you don't like is a troll? Grow up.

Well, I checked and I have to admit that the majority is correct.
Exploration is either broken or has been nerfed to the point of extinction. I have posted my findings here.
CCP needs to fix this asap.

Theres no guarantee to have multiple signatures in give systems. Stop posting such propaganda. Your "routes" are not special.

You do realize that the mere act of disagreeing with you does not constitute a troll right?

OK, if you're not trolling, then you're lying. It's either one or the other. Probably both.

Ok, enough trolled. Still waiting for CCP to give us a hint. Are you investigating the issue yet? No comment on an official forum sucks badly. Sorry to say so, but frustration is growing with every day. Lets say: minute!
