If all or a good portion the "pre-patch" info is true (mining nerf, mwd/ab nerf, gates, etc) how many will leave Eve?

If you don't know it's true, just go to chaos... I haven't heard anything about a mining nerf but the rest is true.
However, arkanor and spodumain is back, so I wouldn't say mining got nerfed.

Stop trolling about the patch before he comes out... it's kinda meaningless. Wait until monday and then judge it...
And there is alot of positive things coming along in the patch, Tech lvl2, end to JIP camping, and a likely fix to the mega shortage.

OMG! It was a simple question... and you call it trolling?
With the numbers going down all the time... and now with the nerfs basically killing days/weeks of training... I am curious on how many will/are leaning towards leaving EVE. Why spend my hard earned jack on a game that ends up having only a few hundred peeps online?
Again, it was a simple question.... dunno why you got your panties in a wad....

So far all the changes that i've seen have been good ones.Sure people will bítch and whine about certain elements (AB/MWD nerf) but thats mainly because people are lazy, and stuck in their old habits.I expect to see quite allot of "WTF OMG" posts next monday. 
Equip 2 MWD's on your ship with the current TQ build, and you are in godmode.add to that bookmarked gates, and a blockade of 20 scorpions will not be able to stop you from getting through.

yeah, 10 bucks month are like.... enough money to go once a month to see the newest Arnold Schwarzenegger box office hit(not likely but..). Instead of that you pay for playing this game. And that playtime in Eve normally is alot more interesting then going to the movies once a month.
You were making a judgement before you have tried those changes. Even tho AB's and MWD's are nerfed atm on Chaos you never know if they will get changed before they hit TQ. Let's just wait and see, and hope that the pros will be more valuable then the cons. Monday will tell...

People always whine about changes. Every. Single. Change.
I am so tired of it.

Hard to say, but the changes they are doing (except fixing JIP camping) are only positive for PvP'ers (warping/AB/MWD), while it is very negative for everyone else.
With everyone else being a much larger group than the PvP'ers.
I can only speak for myself, but I will check out the patch on monday, and if it really is as bad as the stuff on Chaos, I'll probably just log in to train skills on my 3 accounts for some time and see if they change it back down the line..

So true...
However, travel times ARE extreme, the difference is at least 50% more travel time, up to 75-100%.
Gets kinda boring, corps will have a hard time when they have to travel 20 jumps together with indys, cruisers and battleships.

i CANT believe how many get all puffy chest for a simple inquiry... sheesh!
The question is simple... no "whining"... no pre detirmined judgements.... a simple question. The rationale for the question could be found above...as well as the original question....

I worry about more. Guys go and test chaos like I did.
I think 90% ppl goes upset. 10% ppl goes terribly happy. Actually now on chaos there are two mayor changes:
1st gate camping
2nd travel time
1st will make happy every single PKer. Pray stay under his guns at least 30 seconds :) guess then what will be result.
2nd implied by 1st every traveler need 1st fly from JIP around 9km then aligns in warp and warp. For average ship it would be around 20 seconds except for frigates with MWD. Then at going to gate average ship will spend 40 seconds at speed 300m/s. In total on impulse speed per one system one minute + warp time.
It will become nightmare for people with limited time to play. I guess these people will leave. Then all preys will leave because being ganged at every gate wouldn't make them happy.

You telling me they have a warp-free zone directly at every JIP now too? Why that? I actually thought the god damned JIP camping would be over soon.

JIP = Gate
To be honest I don't know, but I think the non-warp zones are only in non empire space. I'm *NOT* sure, and I gotta go, not to chaos to check though.

BlackPLague, these patches that you say "nerf" everything up are to balamce the game to what the devs originally intended. Its a shame you didnt join last week, then you never would know what the changes would "screw up."

Nope. JIP just move from point in space to gate leading back to system where you come from. Unfortanetely WDS is 20km in radius and ships comming to system are randomly placed in shere at 11km radius. Jump gate radius is 2.5km now. So anyone who want warp from gate or jump back thru gate need go at least 9km on impulse.
I call it improved JIP because if pilot did use before autopilot he had chance to leave JIP before get blown. Now pilot have no chance even BS pilot facing few smart pilots in frigates supported by two BS from 30km to 50km distance is death meat.

About the warp in zone. If i remember correctly the decision on how large it will be wasn't taken and/or communicated yet. I could be wrong there, but it seems there's reason enough to reduce the no-warp zone to say 10km. So who'se to say it will not be done that way.
I think the idea to force attended travel and escorting is sound, but should not be overdone.
And there's always the map...

Some of us have been playing since before anyone could use MWD. People stillplayed. Sure traveling was boring. And it will be again. At least back then there was still a certain element of wonder to the Galaxy. Same ol same ol now.

The new gate system is stupid. Even if you want to turn back and go through the gate you came from, you have 8km to travel while BS's take pot shots at you. forget about travelling if you are in a hauler. What a joke! This is worse than JIP camping. At least with JIP camping I was warping out before being hit. So now, you turn on your MWD to get to gate and your cap is gone as well. Nice job freaks. |

So with all those hard earned/invested months whats the problem in waiting until Monday before having a shot at something? If your really interested go play on the test server and judge it there.
Im gona chill, go with the flow and see how I (we are all going to have our opinions) like it.... stuff what anyone else says, its my call for me.

All you people moaning are soooo ignorant. Here is a simple little list of balances for you all so you'll see all is still well in the EVE universe.
JIP= No more pirates camping in .4-.1 space with the change, Yes it will be easier for them possibly to catch people in 0.0 but that's 0.0 not .4 to .1 which have lovely gate turrets. So now the carebres just got .4-.1 space back. Also they said untill you activate a moduel you'll be cloaked so your not going to get pot shot at untill your moving.
Targeting Speed- this ties into the previous as it's getting nerfed tremendosly. So while your mwd may not go as fast the people can't target you as fast either.
Tech 2- can only be good things.
the warp zone deal- Is a bookmark nerf, bookmarks were never ment to give you instant gate jumps. Space is suppose to take forever to travel in, it's not suppose to be able to be transversed in a day.
Misc- will be getting more bug fixes, more content, more agent missions, simply put more things to do. If you want to justify a reason to leave do it yourself dont troll yes i said troll because that's what you are no matter what you say. Nobody is going to confirm for you a reason to leave to make you feel better.

Could someone post a link to the thread that states that the new targetting/pvp/JIP/AB/MWD systems are going to hit the server with castor?
AFAIK, they are not, they've only been in testing for two weeks.
as for people cancelling accounts based on forum rumours of what people think might make it into the next patch... good. Anyone that stupid should probably stop using computers.
so I'd like the link please, before I call shenannigans on this whole thread.
