Can I get the new icon sheet in highres please. I mean the one in updates.eveonline.com

Meh, seems like CCP had a problem with people following the Process. Which could imply that CCP's more experienced resources are focused on the upcoming sov patch which left little time for this release and/or resulted in inexperienced people running this release.

I wouldn't worry about the hiccups until it becomes a pattern.

Hecate: Good job forgetting to seed the skillbook. By the way, where did these skillbooks come from? Because I only see player-generated sell orders and not NPC generated sell orders. Not even in Gallente Space. So... where did they come from?

6 Week schedule... *looks at the date* more like 4 week? You do know that faster is not better?
Could it be the "summer hole" of 2015 is because of half the CCP stuff being on vacation? Because that would explain a lot of the following:

Improvements of Opportunities: ZERO.

Improvements of new starmap: ZERO.

Improvements of New Icons: 4 instead of 8 Drone icons sure is better, but the question is how good a quality this re-grouping really is. The rest of the improvements can't be called such, only a "change."
We have more of a fill for NPC stations and ships. Maybe this will help with the distinction but I honestly can't predict it. Also, you struck the option for a blue hue for friendly NPCs. May I ask what friendly NPCs are? There are neutral NPCs. Not friendly. The other question remains, if only NPC ships will receive the blue hue, or any NPC entities as well. I still would think it is better to colour the player ships and entities blue, so you can keep the white / grey for ALL NPC entities. This would avoid an overly blue overview when seeing lots of NPC stations.
You also talk about increased line thickness. Where? I see nothing of this. Anyone can show me a change?
Mobile Depot at least has less pixel pollution now, but I still would not understand why this icon should be associated with "mobile."
Wrecks icon change is worse than before. What is so bad with FILLED icon for full wreck and HOLLOW icon for empty wreck? Did you at least group NPC and player wrecks together?

Hecate: Good job forgetting to seed the skillbook. By the way, where did these skillbooks come from? Because I only see player-generated sell orders and not NPC generated sell orders. Not even in Gallente Space. So... where did they come from? Oh and, when will Hecate receive the obligatory nerf? You know it is not exactly good practice to release something with better stats for people to build it and fly around only so it gets used more, and then dropping the hammer on it again.

Missiles: You forgot to adjust hitpoints of FoF missiles. They all still have 70 HP across the board. And you have not adjusted Defender missiles to fall in line with the changes either. Why am I not surprised? Your entire devblog about the missile things was weird anyway.

Ballistic Control Icon and new missile mod icons:
I appreciate how these icons are thematically in line with the old icons... but what does it actually represent? At least the old icon had a proper association to what it did. What is the intent of the new icon? I can't even see what it should depict. Is that some radar dish?

Skins and cosmetics in general:
So you are capable of seeding a skin for the Enyo, but not for the Incursus? Your skin schedule is super weird.
Also, why are you pounding out so many ship skins but ZERO Apparel? You have so many unseeded items there in the client which are also visible in the market which you just would need to seed. Why don't you do that? This is getting frustrating. Especially if you tease us with apparel through other media that is not even in the game to look at!

Drones and Ishtar:
When will you finally understand that the problems with the Ishtar is less because of the SHIP but more because of DRONES themselves? How about fixing bandwith for the Ishtar instead of anything else? A cruiser sized ship should not field a full set of large Drones or Sentries. Or how about finally splitting up Drone Control range to more reasonable numbers which are also based on size and limiting the amount of Drone Link Augmentors to 1 per ship like with other modules? The Ishtar is not the problem. Drones are. But hey, you have shown a lot lately how you only care for treating symptoms instead the roots of the problems.

This is getting sad, CCP :c
I'm terribly afraid of the final stage of the new sovereignty system and the future of Eve in general if you continue this road of half-baked products and short-sighted design choices.

The Civilian Armor Repairer now cycles more slowly, but repairs more hitpoints per cycle.

Please wil a developer acknowledge and explain why the Warhead Rigor Catalyst rigs now have a stacking penalty that isn't mentioned in their item description?

When the new missile systems were added, they mentioned they would be stacking penalized. There was some speculation that this might get applied to rigs as well as a baseline thing. Did this really go live with new stacking penalties for missile rigs?

PPS: now CCPENIS deleted most of my threads and answers xD
why..... they do not tolerate the truth

Ryde Froyer of SCC created the orders: Tactical Destroyer in Metropolis. Role Playing Character (limited to 90 day market orders) but no actual "player" character.

Dont forget stacking penalties were added to missile application rigs and this was not communicated in the dev blog.

New web site at eveonline.com has no links to anything useful like the forums, the only way to get to forums now is to google eve online forums or use bookmarks. It looks like it is totally aimed at non-players looking to start playing as opposed to current players.

I have removed a couple posts.

1) I didn't care for the constant griefing in high sec and the seeming indifference of CCP in accommodating combat players at the expense of the majority. In the real world the gankers would have been dealt with and if they hadn't been dealt with then there would be mass migrations just as is happening in the real world (Mediterranean).

2) I have to agree with the description of the overview as a train wreck since the overview became no longer fit for the purpose as the sheer variety of icons (brackets) simply confuse the issue. We are told that it cannot be rolled back as it is all part of the master dream. But there wont be anyone left to share this CCP dream if this is where and how you are leading us.

3) As a player of a couple of years with two accounts I am not interested in the grand plan because I was happy with the game or I was until CCP started carpet bombing the sand box in pursuit of a dream which, I suspect, the majority of us do not share.

4) I am glad that I am not a shareholder because an extraordinary AGM would be on the cards.

I wouldn't really dare to have a crack on CCU figures during the killing heat wave we have in the Europe and also vacation period.
