- Novice complexes now only accept tech1 frigates (rookie ships will be excluded)
- Small complexes now accept all frigates (including tech 1, tech 2, all pirate/navy variants) plus tech 1 destroyers
- Medium complexes will accept all frigate and destroyer variations, plus tech 1 cruisers
- Large complexes will have no ship restrictions
The largest ship type in a plex must be limited to tech 1 only for it to work. Every ship type has a reasonably balanced area to fight in. What are the arguments against this?

I think it sucks that FW people can instantly see who is in what militia by looking at local, but I on the other hand have to through and show info on everyone. It's pretty annoying. |

I agree t2 should only be in the next size up.
Also killing pirate frigs with other frigs is hard, but only in the solo form.
Once you do group they die fast.
And yes I do agree that a npc shuld pop up every 5 mins, that if not killed summons reinforcements.
That would do a lot to stop farmers.
I am curious, why no ewar from npcs? |

Because ewar from NPCs interferes with PVP quite a bit.

Will the new NPC contain a similar amount of tags as before? Each NPC will have 1-2 tags. We will also be monitoring the tag situation and can adjust drops as necessary
Tags should come from Level 5s anyway.

6 plex sizes, one for each ship class in EVE, with T2 and pirate rated one class higher would have been the best solution to me.
Easy to understand, most diverse solution  |

not a big fan of the pirate frigs in novice plexes, or pirate cruisers in mediums.
we all know per CCP policy, the hierarchy is t1 < navy < t2 < pirate... so it's confounding how a dramiel would be allowed in a plex that a crusader would not, or a cynabal but not a vagabond.
also, this seems like a pretty big tag nerf, which doesn't stop the farmers from farming, rather the players who actually shot the npc's from getting drops.
sometimes i just don't understand... |

Everything looks good... except for the FW complex naming change. Sounds more like we're fighting over fast food than military complexes. And why name the smallest one "Novice"? I get the point that it makes it obvious for newbs to know they can do that 'plex, but everyone else will be doing them too so that title seems rather silly... unless you were planning to prohibit players with X amount of skill points from entering it.
I really don't understand why those names had to be changed. I don't think many people had an issue discerning the difference between them. If anything, you could just have added into each complex's (beacon) description which ships are accepted by the acceleration gate of each complex level.

or just gone with small -> medium -> large -> unrestricted. it was the 2 types of large that were confusing. |

come on. this isn't the issue people are making it out to be.
no one is limiting the size of the plexes and you can still sit 40km (10+30km) off the plex entrance by my math and be on the point. if you still really need to be 100km or more, just move off if someone shows up short range... or wait for them to jump in and hit your mwd. that should get you to ~60-70km before they can start to move towards you. |

Glad you like it Adding in these dropdown menus we call 'Utility Menus' to allow players to quickly and more effectively select options is something we hope to do more of in the near future Could you please add a search bar for the LP shop - like the one in the inventory? Thank you. A good suggestion, unfortunately not something we can do for retribution but I will mention it to our programmers :)
+1 for this.
I've been wanting a search option for the LP store for years. Hopefully post-Retribution or the next expansion after that. |

CCP Affinity will inform you now in her latest dev blog about improved bulk purchases from LP Stores, changes to Factional Warfare complexes and NPCs and world shaping changes. You can read the dev blog here. We welcome you to use this thread for constructive feedback.
two things;
1) I thought it was originally planed for novice plexes to be t1 only? allowing pirate frigates in is going to give them a domain where they can fight and pretty much never die since none of the t1 frigates can go toe to toe with the pirate frigates... Daredevils will be near unkillable.
2) How is this going to affect dog-tags? since most faction mods require an VERY large amount of tags, and now plexes will drop what, max 1 tag? |

You can capture AND stand at 0 now, a lot of nano navy / pirate will disappear and you'll be able to do miracles with T1 brawl range frigates, easier than now in small.
Anyway I'm a bit worried about the afk farm come back with a NPC quick kill then afk button. For everything else it's a bit disappointing but promising, we will see how great it is live :)

Love the bulk purchasing - much needed, especially since you added datacores and other lower priced stuff.
Those stargates mean little to me personally, but I'm all for opening up the warzone more; so yeah nice one.
The plex NPC spawn(s) I'm glad to see the back of Ewar, but it remains to be seen if these impact farming for better or worse (I'm inclined to believe this will make boring plexing even more boring), though the capture point change is definately a plus for us pvpers.
One question came to mind though is if you only get 1 or 2 NPCs, what happens to the loot/tags etc the plex would normally drop?
I assume the spawn drops the equivalent of the whole plex as current in one wreck? Otherwise the items that require tags probably need their tag values changing.
Cheers.

The NPCs have been rebalanced since Sunday :)
I just went to try it again. I was to repeat my exemplary performance on all but the NPC BC (large site) which reps much harder now. |

I like the changes overall, but I can't help but think that you guys went a bit extreme. Good call on rookie ships, but 1 NPC per PLEX? I wonder if you making this change because you want fighting that NPC to be more like PVP, so it would be as strong as a player ship?
Also the CP seems a bit too close to the warp in point, but that's probably because you don't want all those people who are guarding the warpin to be left out from the payout.
Interesting changes, I think they will result in more ships blown up, which is good.
P.S. The LP store changes affect everyone and they need a lot more work. |
