Missions are such a tiny part of the game, yet they still received a much needed boost in fun. They were utterly boring before, now they got a little interesting at least.

A new player who judges the game solely on missions is kinda missing the point of the game.

GTFO.

Missions didn't change. Nothing is more interesting.



Ya, that's why every nullbear crys about "nerf hi-sec". Rait.

At least 50% of hi-sec people do missions. And Hi-sec people are like 80% of this game.

So aside from the fact that its made killing things with drone nearly impossible,

Not true. Missions are now a little bit more engaging as I have to actively manage my drones to keep them alive. I do wish they would change missions even more, change things around from DT to DT, introduce new missions, take others away keep us mission runners on our toes... the one thing I hate most is being able to go onto a web site and read a detailed account of what the mission entails, how to tank it what damage type to dish out, who the triggers are... mix it all up CCP get my pulse going again when I warp into a mission not knowing what to expect!

4. Be respectful of others at all times.

The purpose of the forum is to provide a platform for the exchange of ideas. Occasionally, there will be conflicts that arise when people voice opinions. Be courteous when disagreeing with others. It is possible to disagree without being insulting.


5. Ranting is prohibited.

A rant is a long-winded, redundant post, often filled with angry, non-constructive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and helpful in the development of the game, but rants are disruptive and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise, clear manner and avoid going off on rambling tangents.


6. Personal attacks are prohibited.

Commonly known as flaming, personal attacks are posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another. Text of this nature is not beneficial to the community spirit and will not be tolerated. Corporation, faction and alliance members and other players are cautioned to avoid allowing GÇ£in characterGÇ¥ disputes from becoming "out of character" personal attacks. The game is designed for role-playing and/or portraying a role and it is sometimes easy for tempers to flare when the lines between the virtual world and the real world are crossed. Please keep in-game disputes in the game and off the forum unless it is clearly a mutual, in-character exchange.


7. Trolling is prohibited.

Trolling is the word used to describe a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting the players. Posts of this nature are disruptive and do not contribute to the sense of community we want for our forums.

Stopped me playing Eve.

If I cannot really solo lvl 4 (Navy Domi) missions to earn isk for pvp, I am jiggered really.

CCP shoud be more honest about the future of drones, and simply remove them from the game, rather than let them fade away slowly from lack of use.

So aside from the fact that its made killing things with drone nearly impossible, along with turrets and soon to be missiles when they can be affected by tracking disruptors, what was the biggest hit that the new AI changes have hurt?

How you might ask?

Lets say someone is very new to the game, maybe has a cruiser with one or two lasers and is somewhat interested in this game (god knows why). Well, you're a l4 mission runner, or lets say you're a null-sec denizen and you managed to get them to join you. In the past, what would you have done? "Hey my newbro friend, why don't you come join me in this mission/sanctum. You can see what this will be like when you get bigger, milk a bit off of my bounties, salvage a few wrecks, and have a good time with me while we chill."

I have no problems using drones in missions or elsewhere. Yes, the rats are smarter now. That's a good thing. It means they stop getting stuck on rocks, station chunks, gates and other things. Then twisting back and forth like they're having seizures. Still some work to be done to get that dynamic feeling going though.

Are they actually doing that now? I'm still seeing NPC's get stuck on mission structures.

I've really not noticed in gunboats the difference outside of one mission, even then it just meant letting frigs I couldn't hit with rails get close enough for drone recalls to be near instantaneous.
