Glad to hear this confirmed CCP Guard. That statement from Soundwave that there would never again be an Apocrypha scale expansion was one the most depressing things I heard about Eve this year and it made me seriously question why I was continuing with the game. I'm very glad you guys have turned it around and seen the flaw in that line of thinking.
I really look forward to CCP committing to visionary and epic Expansions again that significantly change the game.
And while you're at it please make sure the PI guys read this :

This is how PI should work.

- RMR - the one with heat (don't remember the name) - the one with tech3 and WHs (don't remember the name)
And this one feels like a big patch with its massive list of small things getting fixed rather than something huge being implemented.
I'm still looking forward some awesome shift in game balance (like Great Nano Fix was). I can even propose few names:
- Great Supercap Fix - Great EHP Fix - Great cyno-faggotry Fix 2008, CCP Zulu(park): "command ships are fine as is" 2011, CCP Greyscale: "is the Nighthawk actually underpowered?" Nice progress, guys. |

Put me down for cautiously optimistic. This "expansion" has all the hallmarks of serious shifting of gears. Nothing super major new, but yea and verily there are fixes to the interface. Dvorak be praised (no I don't use a Dvorak keyboard, you prat, that was just a geek reference - yeesh).
December is approaching and on the original time schedule (based on the most recent fan-fest) this was when were supposed to start seeing some news on the DUST 514 beta. This has not happened. I can only assume that the hitting the breaks and changing directions we're seeing via Crucible are the cause of that. I hope that in the spring we can start seeing news on DUST 514 that's a little more concrete.
In the meanwhile I'm getting ready for the patch.

Best expansion ever?
- Cloaked ships will no longer decloak other cloaked ships.
It's a possibility. What I wonder though...
- A warning message is now displayed when trying to offline a grouped weapon.
Why not just offline or remove the group together, like when adding or removing ammo?

To those saying there's not much content in this expansion, you could argue that this expansion introduces a whole new race (it is Gallente). |

tbh, more or less every expansion since release has been somewhat of a dissapointment.
/bittervet
No, i recall i did like POS bridges and POS's in general at first (what was that? RMR?, NFI tbh), but nowadays i tend to think we'd been better off without them.
One thing i do like however is WH space. That at least is new and rough (well, to someone that returned a month ago it is). Other then that it looks like the last two years have been one big piece of WOWing it up. Tossers |

Best expansion that I've witnessed was Apocrypha. This one looks good atm but those two cannot be really compared. |

Again, it's not really out yet. But I'm liking the looks of this expansion quite a bit.
More so... it's the attidude of the company this expansion that I like.
I've only been playing about 13 months, so it's the best expansion for me so far.

There are a lot of good and welcome changes, but it doesn't really feel like an "expansion" to me. It feels more like a much needed, much welcome, great big patch. That's not a complaint or derogatory reference, just an opinion. I really love some of the things they have fixed/patched, especially papercuts items and logoffski fix.
However, I feel the PI change is exceptionally destructive to the game. By extension, CCP Omen is also. The fact he has a title "game designer" is, all at the same time, illuminating, hilarious, and sad. That single change will be very destructive to Eve and it's paid subscriber count for a very long time to come. Of all the changes, this change is the one CCP is going to regret the most. It is just terrible, terrible game design.
Lastly, the insane buffs to destroyers dps in pvp is going to be a long term problem for CCP, because once the issue demonstrates itself, they will entrench and not address it as a problem.
On the whole, though, I am proud of CCP in general, their refocus on FiS, and I hope for more great things in the future. |

Bolded the important part.
The fact that in "less than two months" you're created "probably the second largest expansion for EVE ever" makes me absolutely LIVID considering all the time and effort spent over the past three years working on things other than "Ships in Space".
Where would the game be if you had this level of focus and commitment during the past three years? The lack of diligence is CRIMINAL.

Umad Bro?
This PI Nerf is a PI Buff. It pushes people towards low sec and 0.0 without forcing them. Personaly i dont think the NPC tax is enought but it is a good start.
You can now move your PI Operations to low sec and Pay 0% tax.
People can also attack them so you also get PVP from it. But any 0.0 alliance will do there PI in 0.0 So that means you only have to fight/Avoid Pirates in general. This means low entry levels.
PI Changes are Awsome. More changes like this CCP put the power in the hands of the players. |

Apocrypha has been my favorite expansion that I have experienced. I don't see Crucible taking it's place. I will confess I look forward to many of it's features, some more than others and others still I could live with out. But I am not feeling the same level of excitement I did for Apocrypha. |

If there is easy/free ISK then null monkeys are the first in line .. any and all high value planets will be null controlled in a matter of months if not weeks.
CCP in all their genius made it yet another EHP grind based mechanic with reinforcement timers no less .. how do you propose the people who would go in the "low entry level" bracket will compete with infini-ISK blobs that can drop out of sky with no warning?
The pooch sure is walking funny after what CCP did to it .. again.

Sounds good. Now you've rediscovered what you can do when you really want to... the sky's the limit. Malcanis' Law: Any proposal justified on the basis that "it will benefit new players" is invariably to the greater advantage of older, richer players.

I live in null We got some of the best planets around. We got one system with 2 planets of each type in it. Guess what? only a few people bother with it.
Pi is too much of a hassle when u could kill 7 rats a day and make the same isk.
Let's see i have 10 planets 8 mining planets (p0->p1) and 2 factory planets i make about 250 robotics a day.
net's me about 7-8 m
On a side note for all the carebears out there Prov is Not Red don't shoot. with 2 Highsec to null sec Ways in You can dock in the stations and i think you will be able to setup pi(can't do it right now but i think the new Custom offices allow it if it's setup right)
Just watch out for -pirates -Testies -PL -WN -Drunk/high N.F.H.P. members(If we do blow u up and ur a neut send me a mail and i'll see about getting ur ship back) -Random reds.
So in short Risk ~= reward
HTFU!
