Hey guys.
How about we all make a petition to show ccp how hard they are hitting us?
I believe the most fitting category would be "Stuck"
quote "Is your character stuck in space or station and CAN'T PLAY THE GAME?"
would be fitting i would say.... EvE-CCG Spoiler Database |

As annoying as this is i'm sure they're aware of it and very busy with that and other things atm. Bugging the GMs about it isnt gunna make a difference. I'd suggest sticking to the forums. If everyone who this has affected just posted in the same thread so it got big enough, who knows, some dev may grace us with an official response.
Suggest keeping it Here

That'd get a lot of people an official warning for abuse of the petition system. ________________________________________________

Yes, they know. And yes, they will bring back the courier missions.
The problem is time.
The missions will come back with Kali. Which Kali? Kali1, Kali2, Kali3? When will Kali come? September, October, November (this year or next year)?
The number of Devs is limited. There are other things needed to be done besides courier missions. Things which will please 80% instead of 20% of the player base. Things which will needed to be done necessarily to solve bugs or increase game performance/stability. What priority will courier missions have? How easy will it be to change this priority because of sudden "more important" needs?
Unless I don't read an official commitment of CCP to bring courier missions back with an exact time line, I will be sceptical. And even when this comes, I will remain sceptical. I will only believe that courier missions are back, when I see them again.
I just cannot understand how CCP could cut off a major skill tree that easily, and with one small paragraph in a Dev-Blog two days before things happen.

Seriously they cant just remove an entire aspect of the game like that. It has to come back. I'm guessing the reason they're all gone now is cause they were written in the old code (Python) and knew ones just need to be created using the new code. As you say, just a matter of time.
Till then I guess the people who spent most of their game time doing these missions will have to do something else. Acceptable? Not really. And if its not sorted soon I can see a lot of cancelled accounts. All we can do is wait.

I wonder if u can file a stuck petion on this matter.
This toon have over 7 mio SP and none in combat. All in Research and Industrial. I do currier mission to raise standings to get better R&D agents. I cant play atm as i dont have anything to do. Building stuff takes one-two days (hauling meterials) once a month. I wonder if u can pay for one day subscriptions..

Edited by: Asketus on 23/08/2006 11:05:22 Hi. My 2. account will be cancelt in a few days. He was mining most the time while my 1. was often doing courier missionis (lvl4) . Therefore i bought a freighter. As i donŠt like fighting my 1. account can do mining an producing hinself without a 2. Of course i know that CCP didnŠt make this change to annoy me. But if i canŠt play the way i like iŠll reduce playing (and paying). And itŠs aprox. the 4.or 5. time they destroy my way of playing with a patch.

what they need to do is realise every few days a hotfix to bring a few missions (courier back) just to keep peeps interested.
But yes folks please keep this pressue up on what next threads - oh get on SISI to and keep an eye to see if the missions pop up on testing in the next week or so if they are there u can maybe assume they will be back sooner rather than later i think CCP have affected more ppl than they thought with this and the player base need to make this loud and clear.

I'm also disappointed with this development. As with others, I am a refining and manufacturing character with very little in the way of combat experience. The way that I have increased both my factional and NPC Corp standings is to do Courier missions. This, of course, leads to access to better NPC R&D agents for example.
One of the many things I like about Eve is the opportunity to pursue different career paths and not be pushed down a particular route.. i.e. Combat. The game can be many things to many people and I feel that this is one of its great strengths.
Sadly, this seems to have been removed and I have not seen any official comment on when the Courier missions will be back.
I will wait patiently, admittedly new patch issues are a priority, and hopefully CCP will release something to address this shortfall.

to adress the shortfall pressure needs to be maintained. In the meantime level 1 and 2 combat missions are possible - alter up some of the combat skills so u can do easy missions.

Edited by: Siri Blue on 23/08/2006 13:33:11 I bought a stockpile of 120.000 mŠ of courier missions related stuff, I got myself 2 80 million connection skillbooks and trained them up to lvl 4, I bought a freighter and millions of tritanium for these courier missions.... And now, they just take it all away WITHOUT ANY replacements NOR an ETA on new courier missions.
The skills now are useless, my items are useless, the freighter is pretty much useless.

Dumping the courier missions in toto was a bad decision, whether it affects 20% of the player base or, as I suspect, a good deal higher. Restoration should be very high priority.
