I like pretty much everything with the patch notes so far besides the interceptor buff.
I do think SOE should have a battleship too like all the other faction ship races. I just hope they really don't go away from the design too much, looks good. |

I would say it is a coincidence at most. Not a huge Star Trek fan, but I went to my friend Google and had a gander at an array of Vulcan ships. Having a ring, whether meant to provide mounting points for weapons, engines, or to spin and provide a form of artificial gravity, is not a new concept in scifi.
The Vulcan ships look much more organic, almost like Gallente ships in Minnie colors, with the common theme of a ring, or curvatures that suggest a ring without connecting. The SoE ships also have a ring, but are more technical, clear plates and access panels, and are far more angular. ... |

I think the Vulcan and the new SOE looks a little similiar, but really not that much the same. I think the SOE look good and unlike most other New Eden ships, which is good. I like the SOE ships design and hope they stay that way. I do hope they don't use lasers like in the cruise draw up, and use shields. They just strike me as a shield boat. I just hope they make a battleship version too. |

Star Citizen, isn-¦t that the game were you can buy a ship or rather the rights to a ship which has not been designed as of yet it only exists as a single picture in a game which is not even alpha status, for 200$ ??? I am curious, is that 200 bucks ship going to be destructible as in if it explodes its gone? Or does it respawn magically? If you like things like that go on "invest" all your money into something like that. Reminds me of the people who bought a lifetime sub for star trek online the very first opportunity it was announced and then started to cry heavily when it just did not turn out as expected.
Actually , they have lifetime insurance, and you can already walk around and inside many of them if you have access to the alpha.

Frankly, adding more space to a game where most of the space is empty for good reasons, looks like a tad pointless.
While CCP Seagull talks about gold at the hills, here in our hisec town the sewers clog continuously and it's becoming difficult to find a decent loaf of bread for a fair price.
And I wonder why should we care of "space colonization". Why add more nullsec? F*ck it all already. I want to walk in stations.

An all-around favorable package of interesting concepts and prudent enhancements, imho, but an observation. This is a relatively small expansion that's scheduled to be released ahead of the usual schedule.
Can we infer from this that a much larger, more comprehensive "blockbuster" will best describe expansion #21? There's real reasons why your Eve character doesn't do /dance. |

allow multiple stations in systems?

I dont know really what to say about the idea of nullified interceptors.
scratch that. I do. it is the exact WRONG direction to take the interceptor class. let's look at what the term 'intercept' MEANS:
Quote:inGÇóterGÇócept (v. -î+¬n t+Ör-ês+¢pt; n. -ê+¬n t+Ör-îs+¢pt) v.t. 1. to take, seize, or halt (someone or something on the way from one place to another); cut off from an intended destination: to intercept a messenger. 2. to secretly listen to or record (a transmitted communication). 3. to stop or interrupt the course, progress, or transmission of. 4. to take possession of (a ball or puck) during an attempted pass by an opposing team. 5. to stop or check (passage, travel, etc.): to intercept an escape. 6. to catch up to and destroy (an aircraft or missile). 7. Math. to mark off or include, as between two points or lines. 8. to intersect. 9. Obs. to prevent the operation or effect of. 10. Obs. to cut off from access, sight, etc. n. 11. interception. 12. an intercepted communication. 13. Math. a. an intercepted segment of a line. b. (in a coordinate system) the distance from the origin to the point at which a curve or line intersects an axis.
now granted, dictors already cover many of the points of this definition, but they do so by laying a TRAP in the form of the bubble. think of them as kind of like a spider - they make the prey come to THEM. interceptors on the other hand, are supposed to be PURSUERS. they chase prey, in much the same fashion as a cheetah chasing a gazelle, with the intent of tripping it up so it cant keep running (although at significant risk at getting tripped up itself). giving interceptors nullifiers is simply pointless, because it really doesnt help them much in their pursuit role, while removing most of the hazards they risk.
what interceptors NEED is an enhanced ability to pursue targets who take up safespots, such as fast ships that warp to a safe and then MWD in a random direction - such prey is effectively immune to probing if they are cap stable, as no covops frigate can scan them down and warp to them fast enough to land on grid while they are there - much less be able to actually catch up to and tackle such fast movers. Interceptors should have the unique and special ability to directly warp to ships going strictly by the Dscanner. this ability would make PROPER use of their speed, while letting probe ships continue to have a combat role by finding ships hiding uncloaked at truly deep safes beyond the range of the Dscan (the prober serves to get the interceptor into DScan range, and the inty does the actual intercept). |

I would actually go so far as to say that in my envisioned enhancement of interceptors as pursuit ships, they would be a VERY nice team with covops probers if a revamp of combat probes happens as well. specifically, combat probes should no longer provide warpins ONLY on 100% resolution - rather, they should be able to provide highly imprecise warpins whenever resolution reaches either 8 or 4 au to a target. this way, the covops pilot can act as a squad leader, warp interceptor gangmates to Dscan range, and let the interceptors serve as his hounds from there, as opposed to having to wait until 100% resolution is achieved and having a really crappy chance of even so much as seeing the target as he gets on grid. |

Also, this supply depot better have the fitting service access given to fleet by default.
nothing would be worse than a fleet of 100 having to drop 100 depots to change 1 module, its bad for the fleet, bad for the server, bad for lag, bad for all.
and make fleet access enabled by DEFAULT, there is no reason to have to go through the menu every time it's anchored for something that people want on 99.9999% of the time. |

The portable stations seem to be like a precursor to player housing of sorts. I have always loved player housing. I can't wait for twitch integration!! I stream on twitch but I never get many views being so new to EVE and all. Overall. I am very excited!

I see what's going on here.
A: Create more alliance enablers to profit from outside entities
B: Make operating alliances a much more logistically intensive endeavor
C: Add tools to profit from alliances that have a larger reach than grasp, and make those tools cost effective from the micro to macro level.
D: In effect creating a consilidation of alliance power down to what can actually be monitored and defended.
It looks, to me, like the idea is to extend OPPORTUNITIES for player control, but at the same time amp up the RESPONSIBILITY for the things you do control. Currently there is not much in the way of punishment for having a massive reach on all sorts of assets you don't actively defend or use (SoV and PI being the worst offenders, Moon Mining a close third) So we move forward by saying "yeah, you can have all of it, but you also can;t be lazy with it when you have it"
I like this. As a guy who spends a great deal of time violating sov borders, I think the amping up of more opportunist playstyles is a good thing for the growth of small to medium sized corporations, adds consequence for overextension of sov, and is rewarding for thief/salvager playstyles that previously had very little to do (just can flipping and the occasional failed WH base really)
Think about it. If anyone can drop siphons on moons, and you own, let's say 40 moons... well, do you actively patrol those 40 moons? If not, then you might actually be losing income by extending in to more space than you can effectively monitor, as the equivalent of say 10 moons is stolen from you on a near permanent basis. So you call it, you pull back to 30 moons that you actually kjeep tabs on. You spend less on the sov bills and you make just as much in moon goo.
Anyone saying this raod is the "death of hisec" isn't seeng the big picture. What I see here is the consolidation of nullsec if anything. You think people who now have to devote more resources to keeping track of what they used to just plop and visit once every two weeks have time to both maintain their current reach and also expand it?
Nope. I'm seeing a world in which large alliances become more powerful, but also far more consolidated. Where members of those alliances actually have **** to do that precludes them from randomly trolling your precious shiny boat.
It's already extremely easy to violate most sov space and do pretty much anything you want there short of blowing up their assets. Now that there's a mechanism in place for people to walk in and take moon goo, and deposit it in a reinforcable supercan at a safe? I think they have more important things to worry about than "subjugating hisec" as there will be actual content not related to starting random wars out of boredom. |

I really love the reference to the historic event[1] for this expansion and the intention it implicates.
From Wikipedia: The phrase "crossing the Rubicon" has survived to refer to any individual or group committing itself irrevocably to a risky or revolutionary course of action, similar to the modern phrase "passing the point of no return".
Let's cross the rubicon together, Capsuleers!
Well done, CCP. Well done.

Long time ago I made two small deploydable ideas. I suppose they didn't pass. First one was roleplaying building (allowing people to create their own places in eve) and second was turning lockable cans into small business places. I was actually excited about those ideas but perhaps other people were not.

Vol Arm'OOO wrote:The new deployable structures feel like a nerf to the orca (depot structure) and the noctis (tractor structure). Sure the use of the structures improves solo game play, but that seems to be coming at the expense of group play by diminishing the importance of two ships. At least with the orca, imo it would have been better to introduce different flavors of orcas instead of introducing a deployable structure that does its job for it - there could have been a combat version with more mobility and no ore hold, a blops version, etc. . .. Sure people dont like bringing orcas behind the lines now because of its lack of mobility, but that could have been addressed.
I'm kinda curious as to what the hanger size of that deployable is goint to be. I would imagine the 'mobile home' to be less of a depot structure, but more of a refitting tool: offering that service like a POS module with a small storage department to switch out modules, store ammunition, drones, and other relatively small items. Maybe it would have dedicated bays? My main gripe with prolonged deployment outside of home is the inability to refit and grab some ammo / reps, so I'm hoping the deployable will do two things:
+ Give me a little more flexibility behind enemy lines, provided I can anchor it in the first place. + Give the defender a clear, non-AFK objective: remove the invaders mobile home.
Another thing I'm curious about is tractor range. I imagine it would take time to deploy this thing, perhaps from a Noctis fitted purely for salvage and a tractor to catch the wrecks outside of range, making large salvage jobs quicker to finish. After all, it's just a tractor platform and doesn't actually salvage. I do understand yoru concerns and I hope CCP will find a good balance as not to nerf these ships to much. |

I couldn't have put this better myself. As a lowsec roamer and denizen I can already predict what's going to happen: those that don't invest in the relationships with their neighbours and actual defensive capabilities are going to have their stuff syphoned and their POS systems invaded by smaller piratical entitis with capabilities for prolonged deployment. SOV mechanics are too hazy for me but I reckon the conflict drivers would work the same. Syphon units will be no problem for those actually living in their own space and heck, output a KM for them and I'll blap them for the sake of record keeping. I too enjoy the idea of turning force projection from something considered OP to something risky, instead of nerfing blops and bridges outright.
Also: those mini cyno jammers are a plain buff to offensive POCO bashing in lowsec. In hisec cyno's won't be a factor and conflicts will be kept at a subcap level (which is awesome), but in lowsec offenders can utilize mini cyno jammers to prevent direct hotdrops. Not only hisec, but lowsec will burn as well, as it now adds additional risk deploying caps against a cyno-jammed subcap fleet of my-first-battleships. I might dust off a Mael for this. |

So many things needing addressed, like Drone survival, Walking in Stations, real interaction with Dust players (chat rooms and super caps do not count), and being ignored. Before trying to take away the safety and security of High Sec, try thinking about limiting some things. Its great to be able to become sov, but having to join a huge alliance, brown nose, or follow someone else who has what you want but expects you to play the way they say... something wrong with the freedom there. IMO: being able to settle a star system, great idea. Being able to settle as many as you can afford, and as many as you can forcefully hold... bad. There should be limits. I can only place one command center on a planet... in real life, I would deploy as many as needed to harvest resources. LAME Limitation. Dust players cannot plan attacks on my planets... not in any way that effects me anyway. I should be able to place defenses and such, they should be able attack me, Planets should be more of a game link to Dust. However, Empire control should be a limited protective status... IE; .5 sec, you have ten minutes to attack, topple, and harvest contents of a players storage silo and command centers, before Concord saves that players arse. Soo many things to think about... and improve. CCP keeps moving forward without putting the final touches on their product. Why keep adding things and not considering |
