WOW.
Sounds excellent to me.
Agreed late in the game to do this but then again the game wasn't really ready for this.
Ultimately, good bad and indifferent aside. Weather or not I ..... notice that word .... " I " agree with any big changes CCP has mad since release.
ultimately every change they(CCP) have made has bettered the world of Eve for everyone new to old good bad and indifferent with all our personal Bias' aside. This will only better the game in the long run.
If it screws me, well it screws me but with 30 mill or more skill points, atleast i'll have enough skill base no matter how bad it screws me, atleast I'll have options at hand and a whole slew of new directions to travel ....... even if it wasn't my primary reason for playing.
One thing kinda neat is each race has it has basically the same schools and lines available so atleast if they did do this and implement this ....... they could very well and very easily make all bonus available for each race pending you choices.
If one line in minmatar gets a bonus to large guns, safe to assume all races will have one line to a bonus on large guns.
In lies the problem with already built chars.
Problem with that is as stated, some of us most likely would have chose a different line of schooling.
Out of fairness, they really really would need to allow us to rechoose our lineage if we so choose to but that will probably be very very very hard to implement after some of us have trained 30 mill or more skill points.
Changing our lineage could feasibly change our whole line of training.
I fear only new characters will get the full benefit from this.
As a caldari tubie, I'm frightened for my bonus. Brought up as an outcast of caladari society and looked down upon more by my own race than a minmatar slave in the amarr empire, beat up by society and kicked around in caldari state orphanages ....... I can only immagine what kinda unplesent surpise awaits me.
then again maybe they will give me something to compliment my spot in caldari society ..... AKA orphaned bomb builder, 5% to missle damage.
I too was screwed by the willpower/perc switch long long ago.
the only real thing that frightens me outta that whole blurp.
Give NPC's new effects
Enables new types of NPC's which can have Nosferatu/Cap draining effects on you etc. Incidentally this would also benefit player drones.
I really really hope that means all NPC ships will have the standard size cap capacities and same ship recharge rates as we do to use NOS/Neuts as counter measures for that. As it is NOS/Neuts do not work properly against NPC.
just not right if they can nos us and shut us down if we can't nos back and shut them down.
All and all, has CCP or ever really let us down?
I'd have to say no Bias' set asside.
