what ever happened to Features and Ideas Discussion?
it seems like the only devs who actually use this forum are fozzie and rise.
when they come up with an idea they post thier thoughts and let a discussion about the feature...
but all the other teams pretty much just read the forum come up with an idea they think is neat run it by the csm and then just make a dev blog and put it in the game...
i am not saying its a bad way to devlop it sure does save time... but what it does do is not include the player base in the discussion wich leads to half assed idea of the new deployable.
if you had made a thread and put the ideas out for vetting we would have pointed out all the problems and helped iterate on the idea.
what i would have done is made the new deloyable give not isk for tags but tags that can be traded for items that can be sold...
perhaps something for contruction of something for new items that can be made...
that way there is no extra isk faucet but an extra way to make people in 0.0 make isk from existing isk already in game.
i do like the idea of having extra stuff to fight over i just wished that more then two devs used Features and ideas and had open disuccions with the player base to come up with stuff that will make all parties happy.

* Why the 5% loss in bounties instead of just making the module appealing on its own?
Because the ISK coming into the game from Null Sec bounties every day is insane and we want to minimize inflation.
if you are concerned about isk inflation then just cut npc isk by half and replace the other half with tags that can be traded for LP.
much much better idea.
that way the amount of isk comming into the game is greatly reduced but the drops can then be traded for isk already in game.
heck i would just blanket this idea and put it all across eve.

everybody we need to thank CCP SoniClover for comming out with the most hair brained idea and posting it as a dev blog... he has now edged CCP Zulu's carrier nerf from 2007 http://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/capital-ships-in-eve-whats-up-doc/

hmm that hacking game might be an interesting way to make it so anyone can steel from the ess. basically the ess has the standings of the persons corp who lauched it. think of how a wreak works when you kill something is it white or yellow?
based on the standing if they are blue they can access it and if they are nuet or red they have to hack it.
the thing about hacking is you need to fill midslots to be effective and be in a specialized ship.
which would give the owner of the ess time to reship and kill the hacker if he is unescorted.
i think that couppled with mynnna's idea for lp instead of extra isk would make the ess a really fun addition and actually generate some of that mad old school solo pvp i remember back in 2007

So accessing the ESS now points you. Is it like a dictor's infinipoint, or will warp core stabs help?
Will it prevent MWD or MJD?
If you move out of range of the ESS, do you become unpointed, or are you stuck there until the timer runs out?
Regarding the warp disruption effect, we're still tweaking the effect, so it's not 100% set right now, but most likely will be similar to infinity point that does not prevent MWD or MJD. Regarding moving out of range, this stops you interacting with the ESS (resetting the timer), so the effect stops.
and how far away can you deploy the new mobile mjd deployable from the ESS?

It just makes it more complex. Coupled with the fact that it puts the LP in the can and not in my wallet is a slam dunk for fail.
Why would I have my /loyalty points/ put in a can? That goes against the entire premise of LP - that they are an untradable good, and represent services rendered to a specific faction.
Pressing the "take all" button does not to me sound like a service rendered.
I still can't figure out how such an idea actually made it this far...
I read this as the loyalty points are not in the can, they are awarded directly to you. This is correct. The LP goes directly to the wallets of each pilot as they get their isk ticks.
so then all the ess holds is the 20% of the isk that i would have made?

Saying "we're going to take away 5% of your bounties to force you to use this new module" is not sandbox at all. It's not player-driven content. It's an artificially forced game mechanic.
that is my question too...
is not the 20% risk enough?
perhaps a base increase in meta drops could help offset a drop in isk drops? i.e. if you want more isk you have to work for it

A thousand times this. The thought process behind the ESS seems dangerously close to Incarna-level foolishness. Andrea Keuvo wrote:This + 1000%. I shouldn't have to say this because i'm not the game designer/developer but if you have to implement a penalty to "force" me to use a module then THIS IS BAD DESIGN AND SHOULD NOT BE IMPLEMENTED.
Like seriously, if I was talking to staff at any store I spend money at I'd be asking to talk to a manager by now. What is the option to talk to a manager at CCP when staff are completely ignoring their customers.
The fact that dev time is spent on this garbage is beyond upsetting to me as a customer when HED shows that the core of game is fundamentally broken and badly needs to be fixed. Someone give this man a medal.
its like wrapping a peice of poop in a ribbon and putting colone on it...
sure it might look better and smell butter but under it all its still a pile of crap.

If I'm going to get shot at I might as well get paid for it instead of being pushed further into space poverty by the oppressive reactionaries working for CCP. Wormhole income nerf is probably coming soon
my guess is no more npc buy orders for blue drops

We really need the doctor to spread his inflation love all over us like cream cheese...
Though just because inflation was under control in the summer does not mean it's totally under control now. Apparently there was a huge influx of new characters which might have saturated the market with isk.
Example being plex prices at an all time high.

if i were trying to take from the ESS and i was a negative... i would just do share all as it would ensure i get some ISK and it only takes 20 seconds.
perhaps it should be standings based... if you have negative standings then you can only take all and not have the option to share

You'd have contributed nothing so you'd get nothing. Share all gives everyone what they contributed, not an equal share of the pot.
well that would make a heck lot more sense then...
i figured it just shared with everyone in space... though upon reflection that was rather dumb of me.
cheers!

They still have not explained why we need a blanket 5% nerf to income. I think as players we deserve a detailed explanation from a qualified economist
