I haven't played from beta but I played in beta and have followed EVE since I first heard of it (homelessness plays hell with your on-line gaming time ). I see many whines and they have their place, this thread is a little different however.
I personally am impressed with the constant evolution of the game and Revelations brings more new features than any EVE expansion to date.
So the question is: What is your favourite new feature and why?
Praise away, keep the flames and whines for elsewhere and shamelessly bask in the glory that is EVE.

I turn cartwheels hourly about the WCS nerf and the possiblity of removing neutrals from overview and removal of Instas. Let's hope they all make it.
As for the rest of it, There's not much there for me as an Amarr who doesn't fly Battlecruisers. ------------------

Warp to 0.Just makes things a hell of alot easier for everyone, and gets rid of about 90% of Eve's bookmarks, but still leaving the system intact for sniper bookmarks and safespots.
The other obvious one is the new system map. It's a bit borked atm after the last patch, but otherwise its awesome. ----

I think Revelations is a great step forward. It felt like the game didnt progress much for a while there, but then we got everything thrown at us at once instead. I think Revelations will change Eve more than any other expansion before it. I havent been here for them all though, so I cant say for sure, but... it looks impressive. :)

Since warp to 0km is not an official change (yet) I have to go with the shiny new ships.

Looking forward to new probing system, local nerf and logging off nerf, if it comes. /edit and wcs nerf of course !!! Mixed feeling about instas. I like to see them gone, but forcing pvp on someone has already become extremely difficult. If anything it should become easier.
And no, I'm not a pirate, but I believe that closing down corridors to 0.0 and between empires is a valid strategy. In 0.0 we have dictors, in low sec between empires not much.
Imho there should be battles going on in low sec all the time between good & bad, like fighting for secure passage, fighting for isk, fighting for your faction against another faction, but usually the playstyle is more one of those: 'get easy kill, run away, run through'. There seems to be no real incentive for the good and the bad to fight for something. It's only about running or getting easy kills.
Besides that the Hurricane (love it) and invention.
P.S.: If you say that most things are not on the Kali-1 list, maybe, but they should be. It would be much more important than new toys.

the ups:
- wcs nerf - battlecruiser improvement - hp improvement - ecm nerf - new map and probe/scanning system - invention and wrecks
the downs:
- nos getting even more powerful - most fragile part of most ships being the capacitor (hopefully tux does something like lowering size of cap boosters or 50% cap increase) - warp to 0km (yeah something like 5km would be better..)
If i look at Sisi (and i've been there quite some hours) it seemed to be a very early kali-beta and just the recent patch made it stable. It will be a long way to go till final, longer then usual. And we probably will see lot of balance improvements till then

I agree with this when it comes to low sec. Maybe factional warfare will bring some goals people can fight for. But last I heard, it was npc missions and not player vs player...? Quite a disappointment. I want players to fight eachother with a purpose, and not just in 0.0, defending their stations. --- Eve Wiki | Eve Tribune | Eve Pirate |

Stuff.
Agree with this for the most part, although the gang option stuff to create fleets, wings and squads is pretty neat too.
I do fear that close range gallente ships are getting the shaft because previously they've relied on gankage before their cap ran out and this won't be possible with the increased HP and increasing the size/rof on cap boosters might be a reasonable way to counter that.

Originally by: Lobo13 warp to 0km?
I haven't had that much time the last few weeks to check up on EVE, though I am seeing more and more posts about 0km warping? Is that a offical feature of Kali, and so will it go live when Kali 1 hits? I haven't seen it in any dev blogs or offical forum posts..
Edit: might aswel ask this too; is there a offical launh date for Kali 1?
Thx for info :) ---------------

No - it removes (or at least reduces) the common-all-garden scenario known as the low sec gatecamp. However the introduction of better scan probes means you'll be able to find ships at places other than the gates... at least I hope it will.

As far as i have read, havent played on test server yet, but imo.
Ups:
warp to 0km
Downs:
ECM getting to much nerfed ( ecm dedicated ships for example, why train for them? ). HP to Capacitor balans ( active tankers will get a disadvantage over passive ones ). Kali benefits the carebears more.

Exploration and 0.0 cosmos.
If it is ever implemented properly. Which is starting to look doubtful from the test server. --------

Originally by: Lo3d3R warp to 0km = bad idea, removes ALLOT of possible PVP scenarios
Name one PVP scenario it removes that Instawarp Bookmarks didn't already remove please. Can't do it. Because the bottom line is right now everyone already HAS "Warp to 0km". All CCP is doing is realizing it and implementing it in a way that isn't going to obbliterate the DB server in the process. I say kudos to them.
To stay on Topic: My favorite feature is standings in local. It will be so nice to not have to have 800+ people in my buddies list just to keep track of when badguys are in local more easily anymore. I will be very happy to have buddies be... *gasp* for buddies instead of "for baddies" now :)
Next would be warp to 0km. I already have instas for every place I go but I will be thrilled to be able to get rid of them. They are laggy as heck to open and annoying to make and they cause horrendous server lag every time folks copy large ammts of them. I will be glad to be rid of them.
But it's hard to pick because Kali is chock full of goodness..
I am still wondering why the HP boost is being done. All it's going to do is make every aspect of the combat game take even longer than it already does. I feel sorry for anyone doing Tier 4 missions after that HP boost goes in... UNGH...

0km to gates - Ill finally be able to go travel around eve without losing a rifter at every low sec gate to a bored 3 year old player, ive always thought it farcical and somewhat sad having to create 100s of bookmarks to do just this.
New player skill points, long overdue, lets hope theres a mannual showing them alot more indeph info about the game too
Downs
Loads of new bugs, lots of them i fancy
No mention of currently know issues such as problems with the ingame sound/driver conflicts and such like being dealt with.

to name just one of the dozens of scenarios: Pilot A finds Pilot B in a belt, Pilot B makes a run for it and
- instadocks, Pilot A cannot do anything.
- instajump out of the system, Pilot A is agressed and cannot use the gate.
fun. ___________________

When to aggress and when not to....pvp 101. BTW, he could have instajumped\docked with BMs before, now when he and his mates do so perhaps absent the BM load sustained by the server he might not crash the node :) See, there's all sorts of advantages when you look at this from a broad perspective :P

Allot of you think everone uses and or have bookmarks, this is not the case, if you have them it doenst mean everyone does. Also maybe 1% of the EVE community has all bookmarks in game.

I'm looking forward to the WCS nerfage and to the bookmark nerf, BUT i'm absolutely not happy about the warp to 0km, because that will also nerf PVP in so many ways.
And don't come here and say it doesn't, because it DOES.

Well if this feature is being implemented it will strike the final blow to the pirating profession, since belt hunting (ransoming and such) has been dead for a long time and doenst really make you any isk. What is there left for a pirate in empire??? I know alot of carebear whiners think that gatecamping is griefing and **** but low sec is low sec, its dangerous. Implement warp to 0km and you might as well make it high sec.
Well thats my 2 iskies on the matter. (Flame away )
