fork the nex store why the hell should we pay extra money for somthing we used to get as standard in game

Yeah when are we getting more CONVENIENCE items such as FITTING SERVER SIDE STORAGE SLOTS in the NEXT STORE?

Strangly enough only really smal percentage of players who actually use "save" fitting window use more then 50 setups.. its like less then two percent..

So i suggest you delete or your eft warrioring setups and you are down to 5 viable fits for your daily use.

+1 to OP

limit of 50 hampers me greatly - as a new player friends gave me fits as guidance for future play. I can't even begin to keep all the examples/counter-examples that they gave me., but i think 100 would be about right

It doesn't really matter if you keep the limit at 50 on the server (personally I had more than 150 fittings of all sorts). When CCP announced the feature for server-side fittings, they mentioned that your remaining fittings would be stored off to an export file and so still accessible. And so they were.

The trouble is, to use any of those fittings, you have to pick one of your current fittings to delete, then pull up the XML and uncheck the ninety nine items you don't want to import.

It shouldn't work that way. In the UI, let me have three sets: Corp, Personal, and Local. Local would be an unlimited store, but I could browse it the same way I can browse Personal or Corporate fittings. No deleting, no file management, no import. They'd just be loaded from my local directory.

When I read that CCP were imposing this restriction, I thought this was what they'd do. I was disappointed.

No, not that...


This.

It makes me sort of glad that some of you at least are using this feature up to that point that 50 fittings are not enough

The limit that was picked was fairly arbitrary but not the reason for having a limit was not. The fittings are stored on the DB and need to be fetched from there and moved to the client. For exactly how many we can have we have to consider two things. How big is the table actually going to get and network traffic. In addition to that we are doing some fairly poor job at loading them up (tallying up required skills for all fitted types and seeing if you meet the requirements). That however if fairly easily fixed.

The network traffic is the one that concerns me most especially as we have to consider that you can have a long description on these. So I'll ask you this simple question is there anyone that actually uses the description?

Yo peeps - the devs have already answered this. Nobody uses their max fittings - its an extremely low percentage of players. There is a noisy few on the forums that blow this issue out of proportion, like most forum complaints, but CCP has already stated there isn't a pressing reason to "fix" this since effectively most players dont even use the fittings they have.

A lot of experienced PvP-ers refit their ships manually from memory, since they're making adjustments based on immediate fleet needs or an adapting enemy anyways. Using cookie-cutter ship fittings is mostly only helpful if you're fitting a stack of ships and need to save time.

Unless you can convince another 200,000 players to start pushing their saved fittings to the max, this isn't going to have time spent on it any time soon.

50 fittings:

- keep the limit if you like but add an "external fittings" folder
- third party tools may dump fittings there, those are not stored on the server
- client notices updates automatically, no new ui required

At this point the easiest solution is probably to simply raise the amount of fittings you can save

I'd say 100 Fittings is probably reasonable for the average Bitter Vet that you see in here.


I can fly probably 60% of the ships in the game - and have multiple fittings for each. 100 At least rounds out nicely.


Do 100, if we keep complaining, then you can see about appeasing our insane desires further.

I support CCP selling extra fitting slots for AUR.

(And yes, I'm being serious.)

so reporting back from sisi it appears CCP increased fittings to one hundred.

That's really generous and all...

but please CCP, be out going and just grant us a full featured unrestricted utility. I guess, whoever is making these fitting restrictions is a sole person. Or a unanimous conscious decision from everyone at CCP (I think that's probably not the case).

You might aswell put a calculator tool restriction and decrease the number of numerals that appear calculated. It might break something down the road.

If you want unlimited fittings, it'll be client side and local to your machine only.

I mostly use 3rd party, rather than the in game fitting manager. RIght now 50 is fine. If I needed more, I wouldnt mind buying it through Nex if that's the way it goes

are you chicken oriental (mental) why should we pay the nex store for somthing that was the standard for 6+ years get bk in ya cave
