Gogela Freeport Exploration Loosely Affiliated Pirates Alliance 2166	Posted - 2013.01.13 11:29:00 - [1] - Quote I spend about 4x more time reading about eve than actually playing it, I would say. Right now... I have really no idea what's next. POS something or other? New caps or something? Didn't they say something about tags for sec status? Ambulation's been shelved?

Deamos Dev Null Development and Holdings 156	Posted - 2013.01.13 12:42:00 - [6] - Quote I suspect Eve is heading in the direction of giving a reason for Dust 514 to be connected to Eve. Perhaps planetary services are in the future for the next expansion.

Edit: I'm killing in Halo 4 at about 5:1 atm... in dust? If I break even it's a firickin' miracle. It takes some serious getting used to. I'm definitely gonna have to dig up a new keyboard and mouse to play it. The problem is (which I don't think is a problem at all) a lot of console FPS games have really heavy aim assist because controllers are **. DUST doesn't appear to have any aim assist at all, and I think it's a good thing, it means you have to aim and can't just get kills by spamming an AR or DMR or just pulling the trigger on a rocket launcher (except I think the HMG and Mass Drivers make them all moot points in the end....). You don't scare me. I've been to Jita.
Oxandrolone Bite Me inc Bitten. 110	Posted - 2013.01.13 16:21:00 - [16] - Quote Recently the expansions have mostly been fixing things rather than adding features. There basically patching the game with balance, fixes and updates and calling them expansions, this is fine for me since its letting them spend development power on the current game rather than new features. Its better for their marketing though to call them 'expansions' and release them every 6 months. Some of the upcoming stuff that im looking forward too is: POS revamp More balance by Fozzie and Yitterbaum Fanfest 2013 Wish list: Wormhole features added, C7 wormholes new T3 ships perhabs (although they have already said they want to balance T3 cruisers first) Venture nerf (hard to scan, fast aligning, +2 warp strength frigates that suck gas better than BC's and have a larger hold + faster to train)
Mirajane Cromwell 114	Posted - 2013.01.13 17:02:00 - [17] - Quote They got a roadmap for nullsec revamp, they're going to change the exploration, over the years they've also mentioned ring mining and comet mining, industry and POS changes, new ship destruction models, tessalation, real asteroid fields, going inside the sleeper stations to look for artifacts etc. However I don't think that any of those will see the daylight until 2015 the earliest (probably even later), so most likely the next several expansions will be more about ship balancing, UI changes and little things - like oversized patches instead of real expansions. Frankly I'm somewhat disappointed at the direction where this game is going at this rate. Since the market doesn't have good alternative games, got to play Eve... Can we get (soonGäó) a real expansion?

I really thought it was my nerve problems and I just couldn't use the controller well enough. Then I fired up Black Ops 2, crushed. MW 3, crushed. PS2, crushed. Then I jumped back in Dust, WTF. What exactly is coming out of the barrell of my gun, and why am I so bad? I'll say this though. Black Ops2, head shot you say, ROFLMAO!! You mean head shotS? Right? Treyarch are a buch of morons; give CoD back to the real infinity ward for god sakes.

"hard to scan, fast aligning, +2 warp strength frigates that suck gas better than BC's and have a larger hold + faster to train" isn't that EXACTLY as CCP described the ship when they notified us that it was coming?, isn't that EXACTLY what they told us to expect? I'd say leave the venture alone.. maybe make the training multiplier a little higher like 3 instead of 2, but that's it and after all the other changes made to frigs that resulted in the venture taking their places, messing with that ship now is just st00pid. jmtc o/ Celly Don't mistake fact for arrogance, supposition for fact, or disagreement for dismissal.

DUST doesn't give you any credit for a double kill. Sad face. Anyone know what's up? I would say the next big expansion needs to take the suggestions from the people that live in 0.0 and revamp the whole thing. Stations/slots, POS, Mining, Industry, Production, everything. It needs a conflict driver besides moons. Farms & Fields, the works. When 0.0 erupts in war then highsec pubbies are happy because their ore is worth more, their products are worth more, etc. Make it so. Always follow orders little bees

I know why, you play since 2006, veterans like you spent more time on forum than in game, or they spent a lot time in game while ship spining, chating with friends, waching floating ships in zombe mode etc, these days i got similar problems, its not EvE problem its our problem, but is natural, dude we play 6 years long, in some cases after 6 years its realy hard to find your self inside EvE. EvE isn't game, its style of living.

Promise. Edit: I'm killing in Halo 4 at about 5:1 atm... in dust? If I break even it's a firickin' miracle. Halo's easy. j/k.. ..but actually, if you wanted to compare the two: Halo is basically a closed map, limited environment with precision aiming and very colorful characters last I checked. The maps are closed corridor, balconies, killing floors, etc.. or canyon killing environments with long range visuals, "king of the hill" style control points, and simple spawning where you start at one end of the map and attack down range. ..my experience anyway; it has been awhile though. Dust is far more open, larger maps, much more difficult terrain, and many control points and spawn points. You can effectively be engaging enemies from all sides, and often are. There is also much greater depth in character skill vs. player skill, and you can choose from a wide variety of specializations, mixed armor and weapons, and more. ..but you know this. I'm terrible, to be perfectly honest, but even I can shoot someone without missing provided I'm on target. The issue, is that my hits don't often have much effect. I find I drop a 30 round clip and miss 90% of the time because the silly buggers are dancing and hopping all over the place until I run out of ammo. Either that, or they just 1-2-3 shot me before I get my sights on them. Often enough, that's exactly what happens. One shot with a heavy gun, gatling'd, blown up by anti-vehicle turrets, sniped from long range, spawn killed, shot in the back by a guy who spawned 20 feet behind me.. you name it. A lot of it might just be bad luck, but provided I am with a group of tactically aware individuals I seem to do very well. The issue is more when I end up, (all to often at more than 80% of my games), with a bunch of guys who try to snipe camp from extreme range, toddle around, or otherwise generally remain absent from the field of battle or too spread out to do any good. Then there is the opposing teams use of multiple spawn points to surround and control with heavies, tanks, and assaults. Meanwhile, I've got a team that is basically running all over trying to stay alive and getting spawn killed 9 times out of 10. Tactical advantage plays a big part, and a controlled team does far better than disorganized chaos unless the latter happens to have 5 tanks, multiple heavies, and logis running around. That is with or without voice comms. Personally, I don't generally need them, and never use them. Stay with the group, work with them, and things will be much easier generally. Also, make sure you get a red dot before firing; if you don't cover and get it, you're out of range. zubzubzubzubzubzubzubzub
Nova Fox Novafox Shipyards 4249	Posted - 2013.01.14 00:03:00 - [27] - Quote From what I am gathering the last of the tech 1 subcaps are getting balanced out much sooner than originally thought. Another new round of modules are making their way in. The new BC and Destroyer skills going racial in the summer More UI interfaces are being looked into for the summer expansion, current rumor is its industrial UI revamp. More war iterations. Armor modules getting re-balanced against shields. Additional Dust 514 affixing but most of this is relying on dust 514 side for the moment. Small rumor of another tier of destroyers getting added but nothing confirmed. Starbase 2.0 was not rumored for summer 2013 but winter instead, we have no idea how much further along ccp is on this. Last of V3 due by summer 2013 hopefully with stations star gates and capitals. Possible new capital ship to unload the ever increasing demands on carrier roles off and returning the carrier to more of a drone/logi boat while the new craft will be more of an offensive support. Fan Fest is currently eating and devouring rumor mill so anything of any importance is being hidden away until that time. That's about all I know. Nova Fox Shipyards Inventory

Let's steer away from Blizzard failure and continue with the 10 year legacy of excellence in not breaking through the 500k sub barrier. I'm not saying we need "WoW in Space", but some folks need to be a little less bipolar about this. There's a very large middle ground between the two that could be insanely profitable.
