I am a little upset that the devs have dumbed eve down to make it easier on the scrubs who are learning i liked the fact that eve had a hard learning curve. Some of the changes i am talking about are the change in the name of the shield transporters to remote shield boosters which is just ********. Here is a small list of some of the modules that have had name changes to make them easier for the scrubs to figure out.

shield transporter - remote shield booster
tracking link - remote tracking enhancer
energy transfer - remote capacitor transfer

In the end what I am trying to say is that the Devs are making starting to make the game easier and that is taking away from the game in my opinion.

while I think you're getting your panties in a bunch over nothing, I do agree the energy link rename is pretty damn stupid. Capacitor is what the energy is stored in. So... that name might as well be "remote gas tank transfer"

They are a business.

They want to MAKE MONEY.

If streamlining naming conventions brings them 100 subs, and makes you quit, then they made the right choice.

It happens to most MMO's as much as you might not like it. The simple fact is if they can unlock that bottom 10 percent intelligence wise that means more subscriptions. As with any MMO more subscriptions is a good thing.

Stupid people do stupid things (smart people do as well but less often), so the more stupid people in the game the more easy targets we have.

I agree, a game should be challenging by the virtue of confusing naming conventions. In order to take EVE out of the hand of scrubs who need simple names, I propose to run all module names through at least 8 steps of Bad Translator, e.g.:

remote shield booster - becomes - "To remove the wheel, the coat of arms"
remote tracking enhancer - becomes - "Improved Panel"
remote capacitor transfer - becomes - "External transfer of condenser"

That will teach those noobs!

First of all you should not call new people "scrubs", just because they came to the game later than you.

Name changes can not make everyone happy (I did not like them), but if this is your biggest problem right now, than please consider yourself a very lucky person.

The order of items in the Variations tab of the Show Info window is now correctly done by meta level.

What I didn't like... I didn't like when EFT was made. Before EFT, fitting ships effectively was a huge task. Now days, everyone is an EFT hero whom thinks they know something about every ship they have never flown.

That made a big difference in the pilots of EVE, you on the other hand are making jokes.

The thing is i have been looking further and further into what has been changed with this recent patch and it makes things easier and easier for people who dont want to do the research on mods to find out what they need to train. now all they need to do is look at the skills and they will tell you what modules they will open up and at what level they are opened at. this is just making the game simpler and simpler for the people who are to stupid to play the game normally. If you do not understand that it is making the game cheaper than you should quit playing the game because you are just a high sec carebear that hasnt really played the game yet because high sec is only about 1% of eve online.
