CCP Phantom C C P 4897	Posted - 2014.11.11 14:46:11 - [1] - Quote Exciting times for explorers, explosion-lovers and people interested in the EVE lore and background story. The first class of three high-end exploration class sites with interesting properties is live now on Tranquility. That is something good for explorers as they have something new and challenging! Inside those new sites you can find improved "Polarized" weapons which will provide considerably more DPS but will set all ship resistances straight to zero when fitted. That is something good for people who love explosions! Additionally those new sites are actually sleeper sites throughout the whole of New Eden. For some reason their previously active cloaking mechanism is failing, and this is why we can discover them now. That is something good for people who love digging into the EVE lore and background story. Read all the details about those exciting exploration sites in CCP SoniClover's latest dev blog Sleeper Cache exploration sites & Polarized weapons! A word of warning: Environmental damage at some parts in those exploration sites can result in a pod loss! CCP Phantom - Senior Community Representative - Volunteer Manager

CopyCatz gaming is not a crime The Volition Cult 77	Posted - 2014.11.11 15:01:36 - [2] - Quote First saying that the inferno mods were hit and miss then introducing more mods that in my opinion have only one function; hi sec ganking. Oh well...
Swiftstrike1 Swiftstrike Incorporated 819	Posted - 2014.11.11 15:10:09 - [3] - Quote Have you ever considered exploration sites that require co-op to complete? Example Site has 2 hackable objects that must both be hacked in order to receive bacon These objects are at least 15km apart from each other in space If you move more than 5km away from an object after hacking it, it resets and must be hacked again You therefore need to bring a friend to hack the other hacky thing You could use a mechanic like this to introduce puzzle elements by having lots of hackables and hacking them in different combinations does different stuff such as give you loot or spawn sentry guns.

Chainsaw Plankton IDLE GUNS IDLE EMPIRE 745	Posted - 2014.11.11 15:11:10 - [4] - Quote "the current content tools" stop teasing me with lines like that and I'm a little interested in these, but wow 0% resists is a pretty strong drawback. I'll join the chorus asking CCP, don't take my fancy names away from me! In the name of the Limos, the Malkuth, and the Arbalest, so help me pod - Mara Rinn

Oh well... Not overly sure these will be only used for ganking - they're supposedly on par with factions/officer guns ISKwise.
Arronicus Fusion Enterprises Ltd Brothers of Tangra 1252	Posted - 2014.11.11 15:15:07 - [6] - Quote so, med and large in December, maybe? Also, be interesting to see just how rare the bpcs end up being.
Lil' Brudder Too Pistols for Pandas 49	Posted - 2014.11.11 15:16:01 - [7] - Quote So....you never answered this one the Test Server thread.... How exactly are those clouds going to work for someone who has their graphics turned to absolute min graphics....are those clouds still visible? Or will they start to melt said 'not brand-new' PC?

Yeah it's a good thought but people would just use alts unfortunately. People without an alt couldn't have a slice of the pie
Gilbaron Free-Space-Ranger Nulli Secunda 1564	Posted - 2014.11.11 15:30:00 - [10] - Quote I'm a bit worried with giving so much more stuff via exploration and escalations. It encourages people to explore, which, in return, decreases the value of the potential loot. Some of the inferno module bpcs are basically worthless, while others (especially the small ancillary armor rep) are a nice find. Have you considered giving out other things instead? For example the overseer things? Or at least, adjust the droprates for some things? I personally own hundreds of bpcs that I don't need because I bought huge piles of stuff to get the small asb bpcs. I could equip a whole armada with target spectrum breakers and mjds Build your empire ! Start today ! Rent Space in Perrigen Falls and Feythabolis Contact me for details :)

How exactly are those clouds going to work for someone who has their graphics turned to absolute min graphics....are those clouds still visible? Or will they start to melt said 'not brand-new' PC? We don't have a quick fix for this, it depends a bit on if we can get special assets here (new type of clouds). In the meantime we'll look into adding more messaging as a warning. Note however that the damage inflicted by the clouds is never so high that flying into one means instant death, only if you're careless. So not seeing the clouds is inconvenient right now but does not make the unplayable.

Omnathious Deninard Novis Initiis 2513	Posted - 2014.11.11 16:11:39 - [17] - Quote Forgive me for being cynical but this does not make up for the exploration loot market starting to crash again. -

Arthur Aihaken X A X 3911	Posted - 2014.11.11 16:34:44 - [20] - Quote Quote: All the sites will be distributed throughout known space, in all security bandwidths. In high-sec, you are more likely to find the Limited version than the larger versions, while in Null-Sec it is vice versa. All these sites are very rare though, so finding one is not common place. Quote: The Limited site will be for frigate-sized ships only, but the other two will be for any type of ship. Great - more frigate-specific content for high-sec only. (sigh) I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

Jeremiah Saken The Fall of Leviathan 105	Posted - 2014.11.11 16:40:32 - [21] - Quote CCP SoniClover wrote: ...The Superior version will require a very dedicated, well equipped and highly skilled explorer to find... All superior sites versions (null relics/datas) should have that kind of threshold. CCP SoniClover wrote: The Sleepers placed their storage sites as much out of the way as they could to minimize the chance of accidental discovery. This means the sites are most often found on the outskirts of solar systems. I don't know how far from sun they will be but i think it's a hint. I'm here, new site, you can't scan me but it's me. Again all signatures should be more spread through system. Anyway good direction i think. We need some dangers on sites. To devs: are you considering adding more hackable structures, like this new site like warpgate "wormhole". Something like ratless combat sites with warpgates and structures to hack? Bacon tastes so much better when it's marinated in vegan tears.-á _I am the night. I'm Bantam. _

(sigh) CCP seems to believe that high security exploration should be limited mostly to small ship content only. Perhaps as a consequence of that decision small ship content must therefore also always have inferior rewards. The idea of separating ship size limitations and reward levels from each other and adjusting them independently doesn't seem to be popular with the team designing exploration content.

The 'inferior' rewards are fine - but it seems like anything larger than a frigate is fast becoming taboo in high-sec. I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week.

Its one thing losing a 100m is faction frigate, but losing a well fit pod as well....that would suck. Do they want ppl in high sec to jump in an empty Pod now to do explo?
