10 years of dumbing down EVE! And still going strong!
"We will also be making a significant change to the way hidden asteroid belts will be found by players. We are phasing out the Gravimetric signature category, and instead pilots will be able to find all Ore Sites using their shipGÇÖs built-in anomaly scanning equipment. This change will make finding hidden belts much less difficult for both miners and for those who would prey on them, so pilots are always advised to practice vigilance."
Love this one: Changing the way hidden asteroid belts will be found by players.
I'd say - they won't be hidden anymore, will they. Way to take away one small thing that is actually fun i high sec.
Why not add an AutoMine and AutoGank function too? Or even better: Also add a NavigateToAndMine and NavigateToAndGank option to the autopilot!! Then you won't even have to be in the actual system when you get the urge to mine or gank something.
Then it will be really noob friendly for all types of players.

I sense someone is pissed that they cant mine hidden from gankers anymore...This isnt dumbing eve down its making it less work and more play. Im a miner and I support these changes.
Well, you're sensing wrong.
I am not any more hidden from gankers than the field I am mining was for me, before I scanned it down. It is less work but not more play. On the contrary, I think a lot of people find a lot of "play" in the process of scanning down both mining fields and miners, as per preference.
Risk v reward... or effort v reward, right? The current system demands effort from both miner and ganker to be rewarded in a - from both perspectives - low risk environment. The proposed change is - exactly - dumbing down EVE by removing the effort of employing something that takes skill and time to achieve a goal.
I am not a miner and I don't.

CCP, guys, please STOP thinking with reactive heads. What i mean by this is stop nerfing things and thinking that the only way to solve a situation is by doing something negatively.
Now this is irony.
By all means explain, Malcanis. Or did you just feel like posting something? Anything.

I would also like to see the new ice sites as signatures, but keeping the grav sites is more important.
We're quite happy in general with the increased risk associated with the increased reward. Ore sites in lowsec, 0.0 and wormholes (especially lowsec) are getting a whole lot more valuable. You and others might be happy with with the "improved" risk/reward balance, but I'm not happy that you've removed a lot of the fun in mining. You just eliminated prospecting from the game, and any reason for miners to pick up scanning and astrometrics skills. Why not just make the "hidden" asteroid fields show up like the static belts? One button click is a joke of a separation. The only challenge left in mining now is ganking, and that's not the same kind of fun as scanning down a 1.25% gravimetric signature and being the first person to mine it was. If miners wanted to play PvP they'd play PvP in something other than mining barges.
This. Dammit.
