OK, since CCP is threathening to moderate the thread now (aka shutting down the dissonant voices that ask for some entertaining stuff for their cash), I will stay on topic. (BTW CCP desperately trying to silence protests sounds earily like the months leading up to the Summer of Rage. Just saying.)

About this stuff you are creating:
These sites are mediocre, they are too easily accesible and they are basically the same as the plexes we had before. Also they provide items that we only need to fix a mechanic that CCP broke on purpose. So bad, bad, bad.

Be more creative, stop handing out cookies to players who lack skills, stop breaking stuff and stop presenting this stuff as content while it is only a bandaid for stuff that is broken elsewhere.

I would like to know which module type will be required for the hacking in the sites. Will it be the data or relic analyzer? Or maybe both? Will cans explode when you fail twice aswell like it is now?

My understanding of the drops from posts so far is that the implant set will be somewhat similar to this:

Blueprints:
- Alpha in highsec only
- Beta in high and low
- Gamma in low only
- Delta in low, non-sov null and sov null
- Epsilon in non-sov null and sov null
- Omega in WHs only

Plus there will be requirements for both standard materials some unique materials that only come from these sites.

Want a full set? You can't get it an any single type of space, and the most dangerous* space has the better implants. Highsec explorers will get heaps of the BPCs of the alphas and betas, the others will be quite a bit rarer.


* Sovereign nullsec is arguably safer than lowsec, but that's just the way it is.

Can we has lore please?
Who are the ghosts? Why Is their technology increasing our warp capabilities? Are they awakened infomorphs? Why are these sites appearing throughout known and unknown space?

I want to know their secrets

Hi CCP Affinity

Will this site require either hacking module or analysing module (so hacking skill or archaeology skill) ?

hello there CCP Affinity .

i don't do sites so i won't comment on that part;

what i will comment on is the implant set and the time when this set will become available:

atm, on test server small ships are warping so fast, that the d- scan is becoming almost worthless;
there are several topics right on this subforum, where ppl are complaining that small tackle just "pop" right next to your ship, at about the same time they appear on your d-scaner, or even faster in some cases;

so, adding such an implant set, right at this moment will imbalance things even more?!
now, if someone at CCP considered this scenario, and concluded this is a good thing for eve, i can live with that.
but i'm more inclined to think that that noone did, since this change is a bad one, esp for wh space, where d- scan is one of the most important surviving tools ppl have

both the warp speeds and implants are still being balanced :)

The current total bonus to warp speed is 53.6% with all 6 slots (Alpha-Omega)

Can we has lore please?

either will work :)

Are Ghost sites added to Drone Space?

Good morning all!

I wanted to chime in on the implant set.

• The set will follow the standard pirate high-grade sets.
• All implants will provide a +3 in their respective Character Attribute.
• We chose high-grades over low-grades due to the rarity level we wanted them to be at
• The ingredients will be a mix of PI materials, some trit and items dropped from the ghost sites
• The implants can be manufactured in all stations that have manufacturing lines and in Equipment Assembly Arrays
• The current total bonus to warp speed is 53.6% with all 6 slots (Alpha-Omega)
• The current stats might not be the final numbers as we want to look at over-all speeds and make sure it's not breaking something unexpected. (Everything is still WIP obviously)

Overall I believe this implant set will be a nice additional choice for you to make, but we obviously want to make sure things aren't breaking.

Thanks for answer! (and grats for keeping with the thread!)

One more question.

It was said in the thread that NPC spawn will happen after ~5-20m from entering the site. It was also said that it will be only possible to try to hack a can once (and KABOM). Are you going to put several cans in one site, or is there a iteration to the hacking mechanic which will force us to stay on grid when NPC spawns? (currently hacking a can ONCE takes much less time than 5m)

Or did I miss something?

Thx for the info.

Three questions:

1. Why did you decide not to make it probable? With the introduction of easy-peasy scanning it shouldn't be a big issue and add a little spice / difficulty.
2. So either module will open the cans, I won't need both of em (relic/data)?
3. Will the high-grades only be available in WH or also in 0.0?

Thx in advance, always love new stuff

We are in the process of redesigning our 10 year old content/universe tools and we spent most of this release working on the redesign of the tools, which will be an ongoing process. Alongside that we decided to also release a small content site. Obviously there are many areas of EVE PvE that need an overhaul but trying to do a major system overhaul while updating tools would be terrible.

1. We may introduce similar content in the future with higher rewards that requires scanning but for now we decided to use the system scanner for this particular site
2. Either module will open the containers in Ghost Sites
3. the top implant BP will only be available in WH sites but there will be others only available in 0.0

these make inties warp speed massively OP inties warp speed is too good now

Thx a lot, diversity in activity in Eve is always a good thing. One final question, will there be a filter option or a distinction colour-wise to seperate this particular site from regular sigs?
