Argh.
STANDINGS - support for that should really be in on the first release, come on please.
Another thought .. I seriously hope the number of contracts per skill level does not start with ONE and from there one X number per level of skill ... ever heard of 0.0 freighter logistics?

Right, just did a bit of math. If I had done my most recent logistics trip with the contract system I would have needed 294 slots.
Skills based. Why am I getting the idea we're losing touch with CCP :/

I can't believe people don't see the incredible potential of this!
Grrr :P You're missing the point :P
-NO NEW SKILLS! -NO CONTRACT LIMITS FOR CEO's AND DIRECTORS (yes, 500+ contracts going out on a day won't be something surprising) -CONTRACTS FOR "ALLIANCE ONLY" & "CORP ONLY" -NO FEES FOR INTERNAL CORP/ALLIANCE CONTRACTS -GOBAL issue.

Personally I'm fine with having new contract skills, provided the increment is substantially higher than 1+n/skill level. The same criticism can be made for trade/wholesale in that the number of sell orders should be significantly higher.
Giving everyone unlimited contract ceilings limits the trading-oriented players ability to specialise in this area of the game.
These new features will be a fantastic boost to corp management, though the lack of global is a concern as most have pointed out.
Did anyone spot the maximum length a contract could run for? Hope it isn't 7 days!!!
The trouble is that in a bunch of places of EVE the level of organisation has in effect come to a level where you're going to need to have the means to not waste a few billion here and a few billion there on contract fees, the same with the number of contracts ... I realise CCP have this unrealistic nack on middle management. Unlimited, yeah, that would be silly. But the problem is that in a typical empire situation it will suffice to have your contract slots be equal to the number of trade slots you can train up for. In a developed 0.0 area not by a long shot.
Good point about the max time ...

-GOBAL issue. Limit traffic by allowing a "buyer" to search for specific items. Or, make the gobal browser out of game so a member can browse and then go to the location in game later.
I guess I am asking that you guys let us PLAY the game instead of constantly WORK at it.
Totally agree with you here CYVOK. Great idea about the global search function. That might be a good solution to the "no global sale"
This is actually the case with Alliance/Corporation contracts, they dont have limits, are global and don't cost anything either iirc.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't get yer hopes up. We'll see it before we believe it. In any case, it's still missing standings support .. too many potential ways to abuse in that alone Virtuozzo
