There was much discussion of better ways to present information to players during combat. The UI folks have been working hard and you will see some nice stuff from them in the future. Pretty pleze, tell me they're going to sit down and setup and modify a PI planet 50 times, then setup 50 manufacturing/invention/research jobs etc etc etc, and then come up with a UI there which isn't RSI-inducing. It seems they've done this with the PI extraction UI, please plead with them to do this with the rest too. |

You're pretty good at selective reading, I must say. |

I added him to my address book. Will be interesting to see if he is ever kicked/logs in/etc. Make a video of his antics, I'm sure it would be riveting watching. Make sure to add a benny hill theme to it. |

I can just say that I was one of the nullsec guys who were getting pretty close to quitting out of disgust with the direction CCP was heading, and CCP making gaffe after gaffe didn't help. Then Hilmar made the apology letter, crucible came out with (I believe) 300+ lines of changes vs 40-50 of the past few expansions for a few months' work, and I'm starting to get hopeful they've got their old awesome back.
I'm withholding the final judgement until they release the next expansion, but this writeup seems to indicate that I might be pleasantly surprised. If they keep up what they've done for crucible, only bigger and better (because they have more time and less ~panic~), then chances are I'll at least be a happy camper. |

While at the same time it took just few months to deliver dozens of life changing fixes that made all eve players weep with joy like 5year old getting a lollipop. To be fair, the main reason why I at least got such a surge of hope over the last expansion was that it gave me a glimmer of hope that maybe, just maybe, CCP had learned their lesson and changed the way they do things for the better.
The reports from Trebor and Vile rat seems to indicate that this is indeed a lasting change, but I'm waiting for their 6 month long in development-expansion before I really start to praise the new jesus; nothing like the old jesus. |

I'd certainly put FW vastly over NEx on the list of things to be fixed. |
