Good lod let's rejoice they arent.
24-7 cap blobs = zero testing or bughunting

Yeah, iam also strictly against the seeding of supercaps for the sole reason of lolblobs everywhere (And nofun doing the nofun stuff turned up to eleven)

Yet the plan of 2 weeks mirrors is also a little bitter, where you could use the 2+ months of the usual mirroring to actively play out sov and cap industrie, and also do a somewhat different skill approach to see how thnigs would go out. Sissis primary is still bughunting i know, but you could also "Test" gamplay ideas and tactics without the risk of a multibillion KMs (And e-peen weaving) or the support of a always ready 200+ fleet to fend of hotdrop and derp moments (Which most of teh time just leads to even better hotdrop and derp moments)

For the Industrial problem i still think a reduced job time would do great, since no one will build something (let alone haul) taking hours to set up, knowing it never will get finished to test it out. The "All people who meet skill preqs" option also makes the whole industrial part of the thing pretty much obsolete. There was and is always a demand for supers on sissi, so some people where activly testing sov/pos/industrial/cyno/fleet etc. stuff on sissi by simply meeting this demand, and i personally like it to give other players the stuff they want and need to test around with.

And with the 2 weeks basis i personally see no more reason to actively invest time into something, where nothing comes out from anymore (Exept UI testing perhaps)

Just my two cents on this, and i will still join any open mass test you anounce, but if this is the new way, cap/supercap and sov/pos testing is pretty much dead (not to mention research) in my eyes.

seed everything on the market and stop excluding the faction/super/titan/etc stuff. It's way too difficult to test things if your build includes those items as it currently is on SISI.

And to those who fear titan/super blobs on sisi...it's sisi for crying out loud not TQ who gives a **** if they blob everything is 100 isk buy a new ship and the rules of sisi keep too much crazyness in check good enough

Not going to work because somebody will assign fighters from the undock and come haze you inside the "cap free" combat area.
and if the rules kept craziness in check then we wouldnt see people getting supercap blobbed on the undock. Let's throw that out of the window. Clammoring for all deadspace officer gear was a disaster last time they did it too btw. How realistic is your "test" when you are slogging through godtanks on a rupture. Not very I'm guessing. Current system is fine.

Goliath, I'm not quite sure how the coding behind the new teams work, but would it be possible to just seed teams with massive time reductions?

Seems legit.....+1

Someone just ran the idea about banishing them to EZA and just seeding them there and letting people 24-7 blob over there.

so we are basically reprogramming the entire server to accomadate supers?
i dont see this happening.
56 drillion bugs to sort and people are worried about supers and officer modules.
no wonder bugs float thru to tq

Hey folks,

I understand that the mirroring cadence can be troubling to you, particularly relating to building things that take a long time. The short answer is that we mirror as and when we need it for testing purposes. In this instance we need a mirror to get relevant data onto the Sisi DB so that we can perform another upgrade test to ensure that our deployment next week will be smooth and on time.

Moving forward, we are actually trying to make mirrors on a regular cadence (though there will always be exceptions) but also to increase their frequency to as much as every 2 weeks. Obviously this has some problems and we would be very receptive to hearing them (more dedicated feedback threads will go up nearer the time, but I'm now subscribed to this thread so feel free to post here too), but it also addresses one of the most oft-asked things, which is the lack of frequency of mirrors. So, with that in mind, let's hear some ideas (like Orny's above) of how we could go about mitigating the issues that come with frequent mirrors. If at all possible, bear in mind that Sisi cannot be a special little flower and have massive code differences from TQ, or it invalidates itself as a test environment.

Lets focus on the bugs and testing of broken stuff friend. Supers is last thing anyone is concerned with. The UI bug that shows full cap and shields still lurking on tq . Lets just try to get these bugs killed is all im saying.
