The above logic makes no sense. I log on to do the things I enjoy until I'm satisfied, I shouldn't have to worry about my SP gain in the background nagging me like a bad migraine

"you don't lose what you never had in the first place"

Flawed logic again and one of the dumbest things I've EVER heard anyone say.

I keep hearing this argument that it's a "tiny boost"

Do the math, it's an increase of 20%, that's not "tiny"

Tiny is the amount you miss. You are doing stuff anyway so you just shoot a rat on the way. Maybe you miss out 1 or 2 per week: thats tiny. With Basic imps I get 420.000SP /week and I really don't care if I get +50,+60 or 70.000 on top from dailys. It's nice sure, but nothing I will loose sleep over if I miss them. If you really miss a big amount the question should be: why are you paying for EVE when you almost never log in?

What about kills? Could have gotten so many kills if you had just logged on more! Or what about ISK? Such an optimized ISK per hour but you missed out on it all because you couldn't log on and had a life! Damnit CCP why do you force this upon us! Stop forcing us to play your game!!

I huff gas in wormholes, where is the rat that is "on the way"?

Unless your definition of "on the way" is to spend extra time traveling to a 0.8 system or below and hop between asteroid belts until I'm lucky enough to find one that's not just full of wrecks, and then go back to what I actually wanted to do.

There is one main argument against it, that some people would just log in semi-daily before&after downtime and pick 20k SP during 20 minutes. Ok, some people would probably do that. Other people (like me) are at work and/or sleeping.

What would be positives? I plan on doing them in the morning, before going to work. Ok, why is that a problem? Because I have to alarm clock on the weekends not to destroy my schedule for monday. In general, switching between evening ratting to morning ratting and vice versa is pain in current system. You either need to miss one day or have ability to log during work or whatever you do during your day.

Does the positives outweighs the negatives? imho yes.

discuss.

I played WoW for 5 years and I know how I feel about dailies after that.

BTW: I'm playing EVE because it's fun. I can live with the fact that I'm not the best, don't earn the most Money, don't fly the shiniest ship and I still have fun. Why do People always want to be the best and need to have everything. Have fun, and if you miss that ISK or SP or so be it. If your happiness depends no such things in EVE I doubt that your REALLY having fun in EVE. Fun in a game is more then the perfect killboard, the most ISK etc. It's about the fun of playing the game and not besting everyone else.

Wow...people are blowing up on you big time...as if they don't even understand what the annoyance is with this...

to all the guys BITCHING about this guy bringing up a perfectly valid complaint...care to explain to me HOW it daily opportunities would change if it was switched from a 22-hour cooldown to a reset at daily reset once per day deal.

the fact is, functionally...there would be little change

If it would be little change, then why even bother?

What did carebears ever do to deserve 20% more SP than wormhole dwellers, is the question.

I for one am pleased that CCP has brought this to the game. However I do agree that the current mechanic should be changed to a simple "reset after downtime" thing.
