This change is utter and complete BS.
Thanks for making the job of fueling POS 10X worse. Not to mention making supercaps *more* powerful because its going to be a pain in the ass to deal with constantly cycling a cyno jammer and keeping logistics working at the same time since guess what? Jump freighters have jump drives. And since you cant trust just anyone to deal with the cyno jammer, now you get to open yourself more to spies, or leadership gets to have more work saddled on them.
First you turn the average Joe's income into utter crap and send them to missioning in highsec and now this... well I thank you CCP, at least I won't have to waste my life playing EVE anymore. Once I quit I will have more time to spend with my GF and making IRL isk.

The CSM have gotten the first peek at a highlevel direction for 0.0, and they seemed pleased. Once they've been up here to talk practical details, we should be able to diverge more.
We have seen a high level outline that to a great extent outlines the major problems with 0.0 life, from what the goals should be that motivate you to live there, to the major problems that make most players say "Screw this". It's a very insightful outline and I think it would provide the top to bottom overhaul that people almost universally feel should happen. I'm critical as all get out on what 0.0 is, and has become, because it needs a complete enema not tweaking the edges. They get this and if the guiding principles we've seen hold true 0.0 will indeed own once implemented.
What that actually is going to be remains to be seen because details haven't been introduced on any level. Next week we begin discussing this and hopefully my tentative endorsement holds true then.
Wouldn't it make more sense for CCP to: 1. Discuss long term with the CSM 2. Get CSM feedback regarding the long term plan 3. Outline the long term plan to the player base 4. Break the long term plan down into patch sized steps 5. Implement the steps.
What is happening in this thread is reactionary rather than proactive and it is happening on other forums and forms of communication as well. No one will agree with every change that needs to happen. Everyone agrees that 0.0 needs to change. By essentially blindsiding the player base with a change that addresses 1 random issue CCP are creating anenvironemnt of dissent.
I think we're doing this in terms of longer scale development, at least to some extent. We're developing the plan, which we'll share with the CSM this month, and hopefully we'll be able to show the players shortly after that.
This is an isolated change that has been slated to happen for a while.
wouldnt it be better to have the whole plan ready before you start doing anything?

Again, you have not told us why this change will increase the chances of this non-consensual pvp that you keep talking about. I mean the people with an intel channel and a JB will stay as people with an intel channel and a JB and it does not take a genius to figure out that if a roaming gang has been spotted 3 jumps away from a JB location then its not safe to go there.
It increases traffic in areas that are more accessible to players outside your alliance. It's a given that a POS with guns, shields and a jumpbridge to another friendly POS is inherently safer than a stargate. While it's certainly possible to kill people at POSs, it's a bit more complex than just roaming around, killing people in open space.
Yes, it increases the chance of ganking a lonesome traveller by gatecamping. And CCP seems to think that qualifies as fun PVP or PVP at all for that matter. But guess what, it isn't. Whats the fun in shooting one ship with 10 dudes? No challenge, no teambuilding, no tactics, nothing. Its like the current fleet fight, they are boring but they serve a purpose (defending space/assets whatever). This is just more boring stuff with no purpose at all.
Option 1 - use scout. Option 2 - follow your roaming fleet and use it as a cover. Option 3 - use cloaked antibubble t3 ship, and don't forget some warpstabs!

Well congratulations. You've found another way to inflict stress and disincentive for the already tiny population in 0.0
I think many here don't care what you told the CSM, or who's interests you thought you were serving. We all get that CCP's got an ego to stroke in knowing they've made the most 'hardcore' game possible. We get it, EVE is not WoW.
Unfortunately, nowhere here has it been said how this will make the game fun for a majority of players. You know, the 80-90% of your subscriber base.
As long as CCP's focus is on the type of game they might play, rather than other people want to play, they're gonna continue to see that slow bleed.
Get it together already.

Then why not make the Jump Bridge independent of the POS? Remove the guns, put it in orbit of the planet and make it visible on overview. Bam, you have far more risk but far less tedium. Problem?
Sounds like a good solution.

What this will basically do is kill off 0.0 industry, specifically mining. We already deal with cloaky campers sitting in systems with any kind of industry index for weeks at a time, so to deal with it we take the jb from one mining system to another. Usually through a loop since systems with refining stations tend to be cyno jammed so fleets of hulks don't get a super dropped on us. Now no point in mining, no one will be able to mine enough ore to make the isk to buy new ships before the old ones explode. Can't jump a rorq anywhere since it has a jump drive, same with a JF. Guess it's wormholes or nothing now. We'll just buy everything from russian botters and import the rest from hisec, wait JF's again nvm.

If a alliance wants to bring in logistics then they will have to use non cap haulers since ships like Jump freighters will not be able to use jump gates to get into a system that is cyno-jammed to get to a station. From my time in null it seams any system that has a outpost in it is cyno-jammed. So to jump in ships or even open a titan bridge you will have to put the cyno jammer offline.
If a Alliance spends the resources and time to to take sov in null they should be able to make it somewhat safe for their industries or friends to operate. If you go down this current road you might as well just take the ice, rocks, and anomalies out remove all jump bridges cyno jamming and titan bridging. Oh hell just take out all caps and finish making null into WOW pvp server style arena.
Personally I feel as these changes stand you will be hurting null more than helping it. Getting into and out of null was a pain in the arse as it is, including moving around in null.
How about some carrot with stick, instead of just repeated beatings with the stick.

CCP Soundwave - When your idea for "forcing PvP" can be avoided with a cloak/scout alt/intel channel, you have to consider whether you're actually forcing PvP, or just boring people by doubling the number of jumps they need to take.

You know, I thought that maybe Iceland was on a different calendar and this was April 1st there or something.
Then I realized the truth. That this is quite possible the worst possible change to null sec ever. Why? Because at least in the past where core systems were defensible across the myriad of newly created BAD space (See whats left of fade/pure blind in terms of sanctums after the last 0.0 nerf) now we're expected to huddle in smaller pockets because of the more difficult nature in traveling across that space.
And that is going to make life in Null better?
Does *ANYONE* there actually think?

CCP: You do not understand what you are "fixing".
There are better ways of accomplishing this, many are in this thread. Make jbs warpable-to, like stargates etc. Make JB pos fangless. Bloody loads of ideas.
You also need to give us the direction of EVERYTHING before implementing these small changes. Right now, you're screwing stuff up and you don't have a clear idea (or it hasn't been communicated) what you're going to ADD.
Wait until you have a firm plan for the whole thing and can communicate it to the players. LISTEN to player feedback. Tweak the plan. Then roll it out stage by stage.

Yeah but we deal with the hand we got.
When it was said we were encouraged by the revamp top level outline that's true, not the same with this change. Not happy with this change at all. We are able to influence some changes to the final product but if they gonna do a thang they gonna do a thang. The JB changes blow, I hate them, I think they aren't going to achieve the desired result and it was fought. In the end we are forced to agree to disagree and move on as this is an inevitability and there are limits to what we can impact. We were able to get changes to blunt the immediate damage and smooth some rough edges but the end result is the best deal that could be had.

Yes I read that, I just don't agree with isolated changes that have non-isolated or even mega impact on the game. Make a plan for nullsec first and THEN and only THEN start changing things.
Edit: Or what #530 says, he puts it in writing much better then I can.

The uncreative whine yet again. Great change CCP.
This will not affect too much in terms of actual moving around, all it will do is require people to look at the map a little harder when designing a jb network, and take advantage of gates that cover large light year distances (its not hard), rather than just use dotlan jump planner. The only difference is it makes it easier to camp routes, which is a direct boost to roaming gangs, which is something a large amount of the community has been asking for.
Once again, good change CCP, and I live in period basis, which is one of the deepest systems in eve, so I don't want to hear your *****ing, just because you will have to make a few new bookmarks, and actually clear out roaming gangs from your space, instead of ignore them and play tanks or HON.

When an organisation is formulating a major plan, that will potentially have widespread long term effects, it simple common sense to put small isolated changes on hold until the big picture is clear. Making a small isolated change while planning a major long term progression can have drastic results on the long term effects. I believe the term for these effects has been coined as the "butterfly effect". Do you understand this concept?

I have to laugh at the amount of whining that is going on in this thread.
5 years ago, no jumpfreighters, no jump bridges, no titans. Only carriers were used and they were rare.
ASCN, 5000 man alliance did weekly freighter ops of 20+ from Feythabolis up to empire and back. ASCN was a bunch of carebears for the most part and no one complained, it was a part of being there. Complacency has taken a hold of today's people in 0.0 and it's time the dice were thrown into the air again. God protect you against actually having to band up to do something as a group that doesn't involve PVP or PVE. People in the alliances making billions and billions on the production and sales of supercaps will be the ones hurt in this, not John Doe.
Maybe it will even take the NPC sov regions out of being botting heavens and make people move into them for real.

Also the other serious problem is that JB's shouldn't bar rorquals and JFs, there's no gain to blocking them since that doesn't help you defend the cynojammed system and just again increases tedium.
