This has got to be one of the slickest hustles I have seen CCP pull off yet.
Congrats for being so underhanded and exploiting your own game mechanics.
The Eve world is expected to change, and not all changes have to be announced, but there is no logical reason for an item's mineral content to change from one day to the next.
You should have stated in the patch that some of the drones would have their mineral content lowered drastically.
You guys are worse than the player pirates.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that drones now drop in batches of 10?

Well clueless wonder, you do have the option of not reading threads you consider to be whining, which means you shouldn't read the general forums at all since 95% of the threads here are complaints.
Complaints are how things get changed and fixed. If no one complained or pointed out errors, not much would get improved.

If it's only the drones that is 1/10th a recycle value and they have changed the loot tables x10 on drones, they haven't changed it by much, have they?

Your assumption that this has no detrimental effect is based on your lack of insight so let me spell it out for you.
What if I was in the business of buying items below their recycle value on a regionwide basis and had hundreds or thousands of drones in inventory which were purchased prior to the change at more than their new lower recycle value.
Hope that helps clear things up for you since you seem slow on the uptake.

Add to that that drones now take more minerals to produce and this becomes quite puzzling...

Why bother with additional text? Your subject line droned on and on about the issue anyway.
I fscking hate people who can't figure out the difference between the Subject field and the Message field.

It's just another way of strangling the mega market to slow ppl down bigtime. Ppl are progressing too quickly, they haven;t the content ready, so they are creating diversions, strangling growth etc, to suit.

A subject field should state the topic of the thread.
Could I have shortened it? Yes. But I wanted my main point to get accross to anyone who was just scanning topics.
There are so many subject fields on this forum that are non descriptive, your complaint would be better served elsewhere. I at least gave you enough information in my subject field to decide wether this topic and my viewpoint, would interest you in reading it.

I don't know how anyone else scans topics, but I'm more likely to click on a well done subject line rather than an overdone one. But that's just me. I'm probably in a grammar-***** and nettiquette-***** mode right now anyway, I'm working on documentation crap for work. Don't mind me. :)

How do you figure I defraud newbies if I am paying more than anyone else? I am paying a lot more than NPCs and more than other players if I have the highest buy bid. Perhaps they were the ones defrauding newbies.
I can afford to pay more since I have max recycling skills and am willing to sweep a region's stations to pick up and recycle the damn things every now and then and then sell off the minerals. That is why both experienced and new players sell to me.
Isn't my labor worth something since I provide convenience for the person selling their loot who may have crappy recycling skills and be selling in a remote station that won't pay well for the minerals?

Drones don't seem to be dropping in batches of 10 anymore... but only checked briefly this morning after downtime.
I did, however, notice that Hammerheads do not contain megacyte anymore. I've got about 50 of 'em laying around that I would have recycled pre-patch for te megacyte if I knew that was going to happen.
Of course, it's nothing new that CCP doesn't list all changes in the patch notes. This most recent one seems especially bad though. Several things listed in the patch notes didn't show up on live, and lots of subtle undocumented changes showed up.
Kind of begs the question... do the CCP program managers really know what the devs are really doing? Is anyone *actually* in control? |

hmmm 1/8 recycle cost, but increased minerals to build....
did they reduce the space drones take up in your cargo space? if not then drones will be just left in space as clutter and container lag fodder.
If this is how it is... make them keep their original m3 in drone bays but cut cargo space down 1/10 to match this insane idea...

Drones now require a _lot_ less minerals to build, and hence recycle for a lot less. Yesterday evening they were dropping in 10s, and production was 10 to a batch. They now drop individually, and produce individually.

How so?
Obviously a subject field should state the topic to be discussed.
I could have shortened it but included my opinion all in one sentence.
