I just have a quick complaint about missions.. being that this is my primary source of income, I find it incredibly frustrating that, even with 3 or 4 active agents spread out over 5-10 jumps, I end up waiting all day (sometimes more) for the 4 freaking hour mission reject timer to come back. For various reasons, this must be done.. mission hits too hard on faction, don't have 4-6 hours to dedicate to an extravaganza mission, etc.
Well now it seems, that in addition to these frustrations, that the agent most of the time is just turning around and giving me the same damn mission right after i reject this.
i love eve CCP, but this is killing me. it nerfs my playtimes when they are limited even further. i'm not saying anyone cares or anything.. i'm just saying that this limitation is costing you valuable playtime with at least one customer..
why can't we have a selectable missions system, a little more randomness in the mission selection.. SOMETHING. When your agent spins up 5 of the same Enemies Abound every time you log on to run a mission, it even makes WoW look appealing.
People argue when their personal views are at odds, whereas a debate is a more formal method of analyzing the angles of an issue. |

As a Gallente often enough I have to refuse mission to avoid lowering even furter my standing with Caldari and Amarr empires. A good number of the combat missions have targets from the opposites factions, so we end losing a lot of standing whit them for the kills, but we don't get standing with our nations for the same kills.
This can be acceptable for a pure RPG player portraiting a rabid anti-(chose empire faction). But not for someone only wishing to be well loved by his faction whitout to much hate from the others.

But isn't it obvious? CCP doesn't believe in peaceful coexistance. You're SUPPOSED to lose standings with other agents.
Everything is about war. CCP's worse than Donald Rumsfield ...
Of course, it's their game. And it sells accounts. A fix would be nice, though. Maybe resort those specific, anti-faction kill missions to Navy corporations. Resort the anti-pirate groups between navy and police corps.
Allow the different corporations to have different roles in Empire existance, instead of roughly being a clone of each other. Just an idea ...

hmm i dont know i kinda like the faction thing. As far as agents i do as many as possible and find the missions close then reset em and repeat. I know this scatters my LP out abit but i can do a few missions at the same time and get a better rating for overall alittle quicker.
I also find having alot of agents from all the types lets me do many different types of missions other than just fighting.
heck today I got a mission for a +2 memory implant and all i had to do was drop off some scordite.

While I support having an agent not re-offer you the same mission you just rejected (tbh, I'm fairly sure the fact that they do is a bug, especially when they seem to get "stuck" and do it repeatedly).
What I wouldn't support is the OP's suggestion of a "selectable missions system". All that would lead to is everyone farming the most profitable mission, and never playing any of the others.

Agents spreadout?
I run 2 sets of agents with my alt,
1/ khanid navy, i run out of a station with 3 lvl4 Q20 agents and i have another 2 stations with the same about 5 jumps away.
2/ Guristas, i run out of a station with 5 lvl 4 Q20 agents and several more stations with between 2-5 of the same agents around.
The agents are there if you look for them, try using the agents tab, and try working on your setup coz 6 hours for AE is abit ott it takes between 30mins-1hour dpending on ship types and wether tech 2 or faction.

Though I don't disagree with the faction hit, I do have to say ...
Screw all 30,000 of you. 15,000 of you are alts. 14,000 are arselocks. The last 1,000 players who are actually worth hanging out with are either already on my buddies list, or I'm looking forward to meeting them.
But I'll play the game as I see fit. You play it as you see fit. Don't rag on others simply because it doesn't agree with you ...
