Its amazing how a game company like CCP can have a MMO last 10+ years and still have things broke since they have been introduced. They might get rebalanced and new models, but the core mechanics of DRONES, ie the AI, is still a joke. Since drones have been introduced they havent fixed them.
Why is this? why can Fozzie and Rise, who are doing a wonderful jobs, rebalanced most of the ships in the game before a core mechanic is FIXED? |

Sorta like when CCP said they would work on Null Sec Sov when they introduced Dominion.

I can't deny that I wouldn't jump for joy on the day that I let my little friends out to play and they actually did what I told them to do.
Alas, I have come to terms with the fact that that likely won't happen any time soon. Too much legacy code to rewrite. The game would be a mess for a long time while they ran patches every single day for months to try and fix the stuff they broke when trying to fix the thing that was broken.
Mr Epeen There are 86,400 seconds in a day. You just saved one of them by typing 'u' instead of 'you'.-á Congratulations, dumbass! |

Ultimate goal is to remove drones entirely in a lame attempt to integrate Valkyrie into EvE. Nullsec in a Nutshell: http://nedroid.com/comics/2006-08-24-2155-arrrdino.gif |

Confirming that drone AI is 100% flawless and completely up to the tax for the next decade. One of the oldest mission players in EVE designed a chart that explains stat priority in regards to mission running, compared Alpha, DPS, Ship Speed and Sig Radius and scores them. http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m24dbrfuWn1r86ax8o1_1280.jpg |

I dare you to try and unfuck my install of skyrim, 60+ mods in there manually...if that thought makes you flinch then the idea of dealing with the sov code should make your head explode.

Some user interface woes have been around forever as well. Such as the warning about 1 hour before downtime that takes over your screen until it's closed. I've nearly lost a Prorator in a gate camp to that... guessing the only reason I didn't is because it F'd them too when they tried to get me |

You must be new around here.
Welcome to EVE.
Can we interest you in our vast assortment of vanity items, or perhaps a 2nd/3rd, or Nth account?
The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'Hodor'. |

Because fixing another person's program is easy right? I mean if I made a program without any comments at all and left the company the next guy that's gonna replace me is going to hate my guts. I mean I named my variables x, y, z , x1, y1, z1, etc they'll surely know what my program is actually doing even if the program is called "Drone_AI.exe".

Ship balancing is just numbers in a data base.
All of the work is being directed at wod, valkyrie and dust.
Eve is on the back burner.
Also the fact that there is no quality competition to eve is a big factor in this. Dumbing down of Eve Online will result in it's destruction... |

Still easier than a program I had to debug a couple of decades ago - variables were all named after sweets and chocolates, it was just a wee bit tricky trying to work out why JellyBaby * WineGum / 100 gave a result of MilkyBar.
Thank the gods of programming for the global replace function. |

Sadly, drone AI is leaps and bounds better than it used to be. Also, anyone remember the "My ogre is about to explode, oh crap it won't turn on it's mwd" bug? Yeah, you thing ogres are slow when they are going 1500m/s or so, just try and wait for them to slow-boat it back to your domi at 200m/s because their MWD is bugged. Vacuums suck. |
