As Tech 2 ships will require trade goods to construct, will there be BPs for those goods or will players be required to buy them from NPCs? Also, will there be agent missions that require a group undertaking to complete?

I will be happy if 3 small things get fixed before Christmas: 1. Change the NPC pirates icon from a (+) plus sign to something other than what CONCORD and navys use. When?
2. Can we get back the ability to sort our bookmarks like it used to be... ( what dev decided it was better otherwise ).
3. When CONCORD attacks you can we get in the emails a reason for why? I lost a Megathron BS and still have no idea why? Even GMs can't tell for sure.
Thank you!

My question:
Are the devs aware of large numbers of players losing interest in Eve, altogther. All to common a story is corps losing almost all their members to bordom, the server stats dont lie when they show a clear and worrying decline of the number of users online. If so, what are they planning on doing about it, not only to attract newer players but also keep existing ones?

Adding to Amin's Post-
Is there truth to the "pay for beta" game we're playing in now? Will there be new release of EVE with promotional advertising?

As far as things are heading now with a new low of 4440 players in a peak hour, I really hope so. I'm counting on it. I don't want to stop playing it _______________________________________________

Well, I will have to say that this game has been fun as hell. I have scammed more than any other person that this game has ever seen. I have lost interest in this game, and time has become an issue for me, so since im gonna take my playing elsewhere, i thought that it would be fun to have a drawing to see who gets my billions. Here's the deal...you post how much I scammed you for, and what all I got from you. (be honest or I wont enter you-- I have every1s name I've scammed) Now if you win the drawing u will recieve 4,803,584,324 isk and all the battleships that I gained from those of you who just handed them over. These include: 3 dominix, 4 armageddons,1 apoc, 3 megathrons, 1 tempest, 3 scorpions, and a typhoon.For those of you who became personal slaves to pay for "ships" you will get your name entered twice. All items will be picked up at Tamo V moon V Lai Dai station. I have to say,fighting and killing were a lot of fun, but the fun that i had in my various schemes was, in many ways, even more fun.Now its just time for me to give back to one lucky player for all the fun. have fun in the game,i know i have. Peace, no hard feelings

that wont be implemented at tech1 release, might follow later. (mentioned in some other post). -- The worst thing you can do when suggesting a solution to a problem is to provide alternatives, people end up arguing the alternatives instead of implementing the fix. |

my question: "In some earlier CSM, one of the devs mentioned their working on the load balancing. What's the status and the future plans on that? Will it always be the case that a Solarsystem with 100+ players lags and then crashes and forces a complete server reboot, or are you working on a new solution?"
second question: "Will DeepCoreMining be possible in Empire space or only in non empire space? This question is raised as it could keep the balance a bit for the upcoming Tech2 release in empire space."
cheers

Q : I would like more details on Deep Core Mining (DCM)...
1: How it would affect the Mega-roids of veldspar, scordite and all that crap in belts?
2: Does the DCM will reduce and/or remove these roids?
3: What are we supposed to receive using DCM ? Minerals? Another Ore (more valuable)? Other?
4: Will the needed stuff require some hight lvl Skills? New skills? New stuff? New ships?
5: What restriction can we expect? Security lvl? Ore type? (\_/) (O.o) (> <)=Oveur (proof) "Jumping 50 systems I can like, have sex 150 times during that period" |

This one ranks right up there with Bat Boy hot wiring a space shuttle to take Bigfoot on a joy ride.
We are *not* going to wipe everyone's accounts and start all over again. I'd like to send out a big doe pop and whap over the head with The One Stick to whomever started that one.

Thanks for the info MsdBoris...
At least I "know" more about DCM now. I've lgged on chaos yesterday, just to see what's up wit next patches...And Damn! The new stuff currently in devellopment is very cool Shortcuts to cargo/scanner/drones are really usefull and well placed. The "Fin" windows (making it transparent) is really a good idea.
I've seen a mobile refinery too, but nobody was able to tell me the price/ore loss... I hope anyway we will see it soon (\_/) (O.o) (> <)=Oveur (proof) "Jumping 50 systems I can like, have sex 150 times during that period" |

LOL pann... but i don't think he was calling for a player wipe, just asking if ccp are planning a new advertising campaign to get more players into the current game.. Are there any plans for a further recruitment drive next year?
and yes anyone that calls for a player wipe deserves.... well use your imaginations

Edited by: Langhorn on 02/12/2003 18:53:53 Question..
1.
Quote:
Electromagnetic Physics Cybernetics 5 Electronic Engineering Cybernetics 5 Nanite Engineering Cybernetics 5
I can understand that Nanite Engineering might require Cybernetics skill, but would skills like Electornic Engineering and Electromagnetic Engineering be more suited as Electornics skills.
2. Will the new skill packs be distributed via the new Research Agents, or the old normal agents?

I would like to add a question to the list Mala-
Q: What is CCP going to do about the dwindling supply or zydrine and megacyte bearing rocks when they release T2. These items are going to require even more of these minerals and truth be told, they are either WAY too far to away to really mine any quantity or they are becoming very scarce. Would CCP please let us know their plans on how they are going to fix this 'problem'.
Thank you :)

Research agents talk to you based on your faction standing towards them. I tried it on chaos and some level 3 agents who talk to me even though I only had 0.1 standing with them. That's like 3 level 1 agent missions. No big deal. ----------------------------------------- Sig rented by Drethen Nerevitas. |

I agree with all of these.
Sometimes the NPC pirates and CONCORD are all flying together at a gate. One wrong move and you're hitting CONCORD with missile splash.
Why did they take out the bookmark sorting we will never know?
CONCORD doesn't attack me but if they did I'd sure want to know why if it wasn't obvious.

Answer to number 3 is a new ore and mineral.
Answer to number 4 is you need a Deep Core Mining skill, Deep Core Mining Laser and maybe even a special ship.
That stuff can be found by searching at EVE-DB ----------------------------------------- Sig rented by Drethen Nerevitas. |
