Can't wait until they go on grid too.
And I have carefully thought about a response to people who are angry about the changes: can I have your stuff?

but i am not sure if adding more rep amount is good, even now some ships can rep too much compared to damage same size ships does and that is and will be without links.
one thing was odd on command ship changes, gallente command ships do not get anymore bonus for informations links. Some how breaks immersion ! I agree - I think most of the changes are good too, except the local reps. Incursis and Vexors are already extremely tough to kill when active tanked. They will end up a bit OP I think.
Yeah, maybe toning down the frigate skill bonus a bit would be good (bad) for Incursus. It will be OP I think.

What he had a Booster?
What he had implants?
What he had rigs?
What he was faction fit?
But I cant afford that stuff. So Unfair! qq.
Preparing your character does not equal second account.

Well now I'm confused. There are clear indications that they would like to bring them on grid: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=3079425#post3079425

And this isn't being delayed by Odyssey, the team working on the underlying code that will make ongrid boosting possible (along with many other things) isn't releasing anything in Odyssey. It's just that big of a project.
So like I said before, at some point CCP Veritas will make all my ganglink-related dreams come true but I honestly do not know when that point will be. When Veritas describes a programming challenge as "very hard" I tend to believe him.

Good changes.
I'm still hopeful they may come on grid eventually. The quote about the development above plus this from the OP in the recent thread look like they still want to do it (eventually). Remember that the best way to get more subscribers is to have good game play:
"For years one of the most hotly discussed issues surrounding warfare links is their ability to apply bonuses to fleet members anywhere in the same solar system. We will not be changing this aspect of the feature in Odyssey 1.1. There are some serious technical hurdles to adjusting this aspect of the features, which are being worked on as we speak but for which we are not currently ready to announce an ETA."
Anyway, they are doing good things with jump clone timers too so I'm in a good mood!

Everything Cearain said except about being the nerd upstairs. I don't agree with that at all.
My house is single storey.

Cross posting from a F&I thread on drug boosters but very relevant to this.
Fozzie was on Declarations of War podcast episode 58. Here is my paraphrasing from about 8.45 in:
Fozzie: (Regarding Odyssey 1.1) 'This is not the last change we'll be making to gang links. What you're seeing is very similar to what we did with tech, a change in preparation for a bigger change.'
AK: 'Are you at liberty to say what that is? Will it be something that affects links tangentially?'
Fozzie (and this is a direct transcription): "You're gonna need to have them on grid. So that's a very non-tangental change."
Thank you Mr Fozzie.
