Wow. Another "we must change it cuz we can" patch. Just like the unified inventory which even to this day is not as good as what it replaced. We just got enough bandaids on it that the majority of the screams died down. It did directly cost you $480 of my hard earned cash in unsubscribed toons. I'm sure I'm not the only one that closed their wallets to you at that time.
Like all others have said, the massive blueprint circle with flashing blue lines eats up 1/2 the screen with no way to make it go away. I LOL'd pretty bad when I saw it. My first thought was 'Cheesy!' It's cute and all, so I guess if you are out to attract x-box players with flashy stuff, it might work. +1000 from me for an advanced mode that shrinks that crap down to something respectable and easy to follow, or go back to what we had.
Also, on the BPO's time won't change, I call bullpucky too. I've got a Gallente Fuel Block BPO that was at 150/100 before Crisus, that only took a few hours to make 100 runs. Now it's 11+ hours??
And I'm guessing it's just cuz you want an isk sink, but why does it cost me to run a job now at my own POS? Seriously? Do I get some kinda Obamacare subsidy from the SCC since I'm paying for gas for it?
So now the best we can get is -10% and -20% respectively on our BPO's. Cut dried and simple. Takes some of the fun out for me. I always liked trying to find the best level of ME/PL. Added a challenge. Yea, it took work and thought. Now it's gone. If I wanted a mindless game I'd buy one of those x-box thingies and join the lemings.
Reading other peoples comments on here, I can see alot more things that I have not even looked at that are going to tick me off even more.
It's been an interesting 6 years in EvE. This is probably the straw for me. A few good updates, but now all it seems to be about simplifing the game. I guess that's what you want from a business perspective when attracting new kiddies to play. However, I'm sure I'm not the only long term player to be tired of these types of changes and decide it's time to quit giving you $900 a year in toon fees. I'll ride out subscriptions I've paid for, since I can't get a refund, and odds are it's time for a change. |
