Which is the right way to run sites. Probe them down, spot the BPC/T2 salvage and cloak a bit above, wait a couple minutes, you'll see another T3 nullified dude cherrypicker on top go straight for those cans, let it start his thing, uncloak target point shoot loot and salvage his wreck, you'll get more out of its cargo/salvage/modules loot than running the site yourself.

That's the idea. No more morons with 50 ISboxed barges (NOT) playing a game to make isk. |

So, when you bash a CHA and 100Km3 comes out, you're supposed to lose most of it because your fleet might have 20Km3 free space. Brilliant. The spew mechanic is not bad, but can't say I enjoy it. Its like when my GF cooks something she's proud of and says is really good but it's not and I just have to sit and smile to make her happy wishing I could have ordered a pizza instead. Definitely not an experience I want to pay for in a game.
Well we are all entitled to our opinion. I cannot speak as to why you would not reorganize your fleet to be in a position to collect the loot created. That is your problem.
All I can say is that the idea of scattering loot is more immersive to an exploding ship than a can full of everything just sitting there. Primary Test Subject GÇó SmackTalker Elite |

Use a cargo scanner, always use a cargo scanner.
Decryptors in there? Click on Parts boxes.
Datacores & Blue Prints? Data boxes.
Cables & Cords? Material Boxes.
Relic Sites only really have rig things, which you should be clicking on parts I believe.
It seems to work, yeah you'll get some coal etc. but the decryptors were 100% in the boxes I mentioned.
Skillbooks are always in data. Got a couple.
Avoid scraps boxes at all times. Dude don't mislead people like this. All the boxes contain carbon. The new game sucks, the loss of rats sucks. exploration is dead. everyone should go do something else  |

Yes, if I want to play mini-games there's no shortage of choices outside EVE, but I don't, hate them, and now EVE has it's very own. |

How about a multiplayer version of hacking?
Make it so that there are multiple cores, each with a different loot reward. Accessing all of them should be very hard/impossible for a single player, but by cooperating with one or two others they could get all the loot.
The game should require some coordination between the players. And now there is no more reason to have loot spew. |

The value of that loot has already dropped to a fraction of what it was before the expansion. |

You realise you can use a cargo scanner on them sites right and figure whats in them before you hack?
EDIT: I really couldn't be bothered to scroll through 4 pages just to see if someone had already mentioned it...so if someone has, many apologies... It's human nature to want to explore. To find your line and go beyond it. The only limit, is the one you set yourself. |

This was done to get explorers spending more time uncloaked and on site longer, to increase the chance of getting pointed and shot by someone. While you are hacking a site you can't be cloaked. While dicking around with can spew you arent cloaked. AND with the added bonus of getting you to bring a buddy along to get shot also (to grab all the drops).
One interesting note: Unlike the old system, where a sig would remain in system until you opened a can AND left grid, in the new system, the sig pops after you unlock the first can, which means that the window for hunting people without combat probes is actually kind of narrow (unless they pre-scan the sites and use them as bait). I tend to blitz the closest of the easy-mode cans in a new site just to get my sig off the grid. I thought they said they fixed that a while ago. Will have to test somehow.
Also yes loot can spew is terrible. Exploration is no fun and unprofitable. The game would be much better if all of you moved on to other professions. |

Sounds like someone is bitter because all the newbies have caused a price crash.
Smart players are letting their pawns do all the hard work, snapping up things at a low price now, and then sell stuff for a profit later when prices go back up. I wouldn't be surprised that half of the price drop was intentionally caused by people screwing with the markets. I can has blogging skills! |

So, it started as Spew, then became **** in a cup, and now its Scat.......
No matter what name you pin on it, the destination remains the same.... the toilet bowl!
But hey, CCP arent known for listening to criticism of theur New Features so I guess this horse apple of a system is here to stay, bad smell and all.
Think I'll let someone else deal with the Scat and I'll focus on popping them and taking everything from one single convenient container, you know, the way it SHOULD be ...... |

This. It takes thought, focus, and good reactions (all of which you can build up with a little practice) and you'll come up with shinies eventually. Some sites just don't have anything decent in them, but that's why you cargo-scan the containers first. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |

This. Cargo scan that thing, cross reference it with a loot guide, and you will snag 90% of the loot, every time. Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á |

Loot spew really sucks. The Mini game is not fun. It does not fall in line with anything else in eve. It might as well be tic tac toe with some random NPC where sometimes it plays dumb to let you win.
How about creating a "package" that you loot. Said package would have to be processed to see what is inside. |

In the beginning null was empty, and dark, and void...
And the nullsec alliances that formed elected CSM representatives, to take their message of 'moar soft targets' to THE LORD....
So CCP crafted Oddyssey on sisi, an exploration-based release to draw moar bear flesh into the void.
But lo there still wasn't enough bear flesh for the hunters in null to consume, and there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth.
So CCP invented loot spew, to entice the bears to bring other bears with them, and provide even moar flesh to the hungry null pews.
But lo, the bears would watch local and cloak as soon as a nullpew entered system to harvest their flesh.
So CCP crafted a mini game, to bedazzle and mystify the bear, and take his attention off local long enough for the null pew to point him.
And the null pews were satisfied, and it was now the bears wailing and gnashing their teeth. For they did not enjoy the non-consensual expansion of their nether orifices.
And CCP said "look what we have done! It is beautiful in our sight! What moar can we do?'.
So THE LORD commanded that a player event be enacted, to bring even moar bear flesh into the void. And CCP led a cast of thousands of naive bears into the border regions, where null pews waited hungrily to slaughter them and feed on their flesh.
And CCP waved their hands in consentric patterns while chanting 'RUBICON! RUBICON!', and this mystified the null plew long enough to forget their pains of TiDi and empty wasteland systems...
So let it be written. So let it be undone.

The answer to loot spew: bring a bro. Two people can hoover it all up. This also allow your bro to make up to 4 attempts on the same can without triggering the self-destruct, as destruct mechanic is triggered on successive fails by a particular player. Free Ripley Weaver! |
