Hmmm, a bit of a mixed bag here CCP.
- Missions: I do feel uneasy like the rest of people here that the game is getting too simplified, however after thinking about it i think this could go one way or the other. The reason it's good on paper is people will be willing to use the current negative quality agents. I think in practice though that people will just shuffle to the new most convenient mission systems close to existing market hubs. It's similar in a way to when CCP removed the gates around Yulai, people just moved to Jita instead and it was a bit inconvienient that was all. More people will get involved in missions and the game will get flooded with a bit more isk. Remember chaps, the actually isk currency we trade has to originate from somewhere and it's from NPCs and agent rewards. More isky means inflation.
- BPC and BPO different icons: Good job CCP i've been wanting this for 7 years
 .
- Scanner changes: Nothing but good, i mean the people moaning about sanctums? Who on earth HONESTLY pokes around 0.0 with on-board scanner for these??? Everyone uses a covert ops to scan the whole system anyway so whatÆs the problem? If anything it just lets the people without a second account be able to get scanning about by themselves and hopefully get a break. If people get killed more in anomalies then thatÆs great, there's already too much isk in this game and we got on just fine without cosmic signatures and anomalies in the past so deal with it people
- Cache: When is machonet going to get sorted? It winds me up no end when after a month of eve i have a 1-1.5gig cache size which includes over 150'000 files???? That's more files than your average XP install with some games music and general junk people download? Also it takes 20-30mins just to delete? Can't we have a few magic cache dummy files of a few gigs instead so the eve client sticks all it's messy crap in those instead of adding 150'000 individual files to my system?. 150'000 files a month... come on CCP.
- Space: More space! Please please please please pleeeease make some more space already? this game felt massive back in 2006, then warp to 0km made it a bit smaller, then just drives, jump bridges and all that jazz made eve tiny. Make eve big again CCP! Double the empires controlled space and double the pirate npc conquerable space (no more of that drone region crap though please). Also you promised me Jove space in 2003 :), will i ever get there?
 .
Ok ranting to one side, i've got to say CCP have been doing a top job the last couple of years with patches and new content. Cosmic signatures are great in my opinion and I like the kinder suprise egg effect it has when I get a decent toy from doing one :). I love it when an incursion ruins eve for the local miners and mission runners, brilliant :). Wormhole space I find boring but the ability to sneak about eve through wormholes is really cool.
All in all good job CCP! Almost 8 years I've been in this game  . It's had it's ups and downs and luckily the last few years patches have mostly seen ups  .
