Oh and 10 smaller expansions a year rather than 2. Makes for a more agile CCP I think in regard to fixing and changing things.

1 every 5.2 weeks means a patch everyday for 3 weeks putting the previous expansion right.

it's only problem if you're downloading from the third world or still living in 1995

Seems like they are building EVE from the inside out.

Rebalancing Reprocessing - I wonder if scrapmetal processing skill will be removed and the SP refunded?

Industry - Clickfest reduced and Interface brought up to date. Looked good to me.

Cloaky Stealth Miner in the form of the Prospect. Love this idea - gang of ninja miners!

Future of player built star gates... Oh and 10 smaller expansions a year rather than 2. Makes for a more agile CCP I think in regard to fixing and changing things.

OP says 10 small expansions a year.

52 weeks in a year.

52/10 = 5.2 so 1 expansion every 5.2 weeks roughly.

Please assume that most of this is utter BS from a new lead that just bailed from WoD right before it sank who's trying to look good.

He's also promising an end to high sec and that all NPC stations will be destructible.

I don't see that happening and still keeping a subscriber base. In other words, i don't see that happening.

Having sec status be more of a gradient instead of clear hi/low/null divisions, in conjunction with player held stations in empire space could go a long way towards this while still preserving pve play-styles.

Except he didn't, he said "all player made things".

While mex is high priced, even the new ninja miner grabbing the mex ores is NOT going to come CLOSE to a barge mining veld. Even with a single miner counting as 3 with 100% + 50%, it will still be less than 1/5th the yield of a single strip, let alone a barge with 3 strips.

I think it will happen and won't be as drastic as it sounds. Having sec status be more of a gradient instead of clear hi/low/null divisions, in conjunction with player held stations in empire space could go a long way towards this while still preserving pve play-styles.

I think with 10 little "expansions" the changes will be smaller and have less bugs. At least I hope so CCP never fails to deliver the opposite

[ now that High sec will be open to cap ships, should be necessary, but apparently it is,
.

Wait... WHAT?

Wait... WHAT?

Yeah, they announced that they were giving freighters the ability to fit modules and rigs. The thing that keeps people from simply repacking their carrier and putting it on a freighter to high sec is that the freighters have a cargo bay just SLIGHTLY smaller than a cap ship that's been repackaged. CCP noticed this fact during testing before introducing freighters, and removed all their slots (there being some particular reason that cap ships are packaged at the sizes they are) .

Effectively, there's nothing to stop you from simply freighting in your carrier now.

A - they have not said you could fit expander rigs/mods

B - cargo hold could get nerfed hard so that even with rigs/mods it cant carry them.

thats going on the presumption that freighters will have a big enough hold via rigs/mods to jump them into high via gates........wont happen imo.

Their cargo holds are almost big enough now with no expanders.
