CCP Phantom C C P C C P Alliance 6784	Posted - 2016.06.09 14:59:43 - [1] - Quote With the June release on June 28, we bring back events with a completely overhauled design making them much better visible. Together with this new event "Shadow of the Serpent: Signal the Dawn" we also introduce a new event framework to help you participate in the various tasks of this event and to enable you to influence the EVE Online storyline. Check out the exciting changes in CCP Affinity's latest blog Shadow of the Serpent: Signal the Dawn. Please note that all images in the dev blog are placeholders and that as such the text visible in the images does not reflect the event content.

Elenahina Agony Unleashed Agony Empire 896	Posted - 2016.06.09 15:08:57 - [2] - Quote Well, the Dev Blog is a little vague about the actual timing. Is there an event happening "over the next few weeks", or does it all start after June 28th. Either way, sounds great. More content is always welcome! Eve is like an addiction; you can't quit it until it quits you.

It starts on June 28th :) This event looks very exciting. Unfortunately, it begins the day I start driving across the country. Why can't you take my personal schedule into account, CCP? Just kidding, it will be a nice thing to look forward to at the end of each 1000-mile day. CCP should add more NPC 0.0 space to open it up and liven things up: the Stepping Stones project.

It reminds me a lot of what other MMO's do, which isn't bad per s+¬. I am curious to see how this pans out. I do agree that the previous events were too invisible to a lot of players, this seems like a nice framework to use for more events in the future.

Serenol Marwysgar Imperial Combat Engineers Empire of Arcadia 0	Posted - 2016.06.09 16:14:53 - [14] - Quote I really like this. One of my "issues" with the previous events were that I had a limited amount of time to play, and finding the event sites took up most of my time. Then there was the unknowns like, "could I do this in a DD, or do I need a CL or BC?" I appreciate the more clear and defined requirements to participate. Like, "mine X of Y" is easily understandable. "Build X of Y" is likewise clearly defined. Any DED sites could have a short intel-brief that might mention "you might be expected to face a Serpentis cruiser force." That would be vague enough to not know what to expect, but clear enough that a cruiser is the most powerful ship(s) in the site. Especially for new(er)bros, providing in-game information makes the game more accessible. Not everyone might enjoy facing the penultimate boss in EVE to discover what they need to know. Also, if sites are part of an event there need to be enough of them! As I mentioned before, finding a Crimson or Angel site was very difficult, especially in Hisec (which made me feel that the event was more for Null players than me.) So yea: accessibility, clarity, availability are important to me to participate.

Circumstantial Evidence 329	Posted - 2016.06.09 17:05:32 - [19] - Quote I think more logic should be added to site spawning, so that less sites spawn in systems where less are being completed, (perhaps set a max active number) and those potential spawns are redirected elsewhere. The total number of sites spawning would stay the same. Serenol Marwysgar wrote: I really like this. One of my "issues" with the previous events were that I had a limited amount of time to play, and finding the event sites took up most of my time.

As I mentioned before, finding a Crimson or Angel site was very difficult, especially in Hisec (which made me feel that the event was more for Null players than me.) So yea: accessibility, clarity, availability are important to me to participate. CCP may have an idea of how much loot and value they want to inject into the economy, via site spawn rates. Ofc the "good" loot can be quite rare, I didn't find any of the cooler stuff folks were talking about in the last event, with over 50 sites completed. If combat event sites are made too common, average loot values go down and everyone can gravitate toward their own private site. Less "player interaction" happens, and I don't just mean player pirates. I occasionally found myself in a race for the loot, and some pilots and ship types were better at it. This upcoming event looks like it is going to include a variety of activities, that should help more play styles to participate, and may help overcome any technical limits to combat-only site distribution. CCP Affinity wrote: ...if multiple people are in the site when it is completed, everyone gets the reward. Fixes complaints about "competition" for site rewards in highsec... is this a form of the Incursion rewards model? That already has a UI that directs players to the "event."

Nou Mene Out of Focus Odin's Call 17	Posted - 2016.06.09 18:25:05 - [24] - Quote Love the feature. Can't wait for the event. Can we expect integration of this with dailies and/or general PvE content in the future?
Tipa Riot Federal Navy Academy Gallente Federation 2582	Posted - 2016.06.09 18:41:27 - [25] - Quote I liked the very first event most, because it was low in-game skill demand but tricky to get a good quantity of sites (wormholes), the loot was a high-demand consumable not traded in the market, the sites a conflict driver and the value allowed for north of 250m ISK/h purely market neutral profit if you knew how. For me this is the gold standard of events together with being a rare thing. I like the UI improvements and looking forward to the surprise . But I'm concerned about making this a permanent or exchangeable thing taking away the unique event character, and as an easy access event for everybody having to make the loot mediocre. There was the question about taking sides above ... this is an excellent idea, let us choose a faction when entering a side with the rules of faction warfare while in the site for maximum reward. I'm my own NPC alt.
Recessio DobCo Industries 1	Posted - 2016.06.09 18:42:46 - [26] - Quote This whole system looks great! Could this potentially replace missions? I remember when I was new thinking the mission system was pretty outdated and clunky, I'd love to see something like this take over!
Zenya Bestiary Phylogenesis 0	Posted - 2016.06.09 19:07:04 - [27] - Quote So I'm a little confused how this differs from previous events, specifically are the missions/tasks going to be scannable cosmic sigs anyone can warp to, or do we accept the mission and just risk being probed out while doing it or attacked on route?

Moac Tor Cyber Core Stain Confederation 571	Posted - 2016.06.09 20:51:11 - [28] - Quote Feels like the sandbox is being replaced by a theme park. Maybe I'm just bitter but I'm not keen on this. Don't get me wrong I like the lore side of it; but this 'mine 1000 units of ore' and 'kill 10 rats' feels like hunting boars in a forest. Modulated ECM Effects An Alternative to Skill Trading

CCP Affinity said - by hunting down the capsuleers in the Serpentis sites ;) So you can gain rewards (or at least points toward such) for killing people inside these event sites? -- - -- - -- So I know the example pic at the log in screen is just that, an example but to satisfy my curiosity - It shows you have earned 6,400 reward points and need 15,000 for the next reward. The next part of the event is in 3 parts and is worth 700 reward points - Presuming these are designed so everyone has an equal opportunity to complete them and they don't just get impossible for some by getting increasingly harder to complete (for more reward points). You will need to complete approximately 12 challenges for the next reward at 15,000 reward points? NB; I have many more questions (the blog is somewhat vague) but one thing at a time. My opinions are mine. If you don't like them or disagree with me that's OK.- - - - - - Just don't bother Hating - I don't care It really is getting harder and harder to justify $23 a month for each sub.

Everyone gets the reward :) So if multiple people are in the site when it is completed, everyone gets the reward. Do they need to be in the same fleet, corp or alliance or can I just warp to any site and collect rewards on its completion without having participated? Will I be able to sit cloaked up and kill the person who ran the site - After he has completed it and I have collected my rewards? If so this is a little random and not fitting within a balanced event reward structure - Unless the reward is group based (the description states it requires more than one player to complete) it should only reward the individual who accepts and completes the challenge. Again we're (CCP Affinity) being a little vague about how these will work here. This is Eve, people will abuse this system if it is not properly managed from the start. Devs need to take player behavior into consideration when designing new content - this one smacks a little of, near enough is good enough, we'll fix it later. It is very likely ( in lowsec and nul especially) that these will simply become gank fests where the person who started the site dies and the group who kill him get the rewards. I suppose the rest of Eve is just a gank/N+1 fest, why should new content be any different..... Eve is about rewarding the worst behavior of its players, this will fit right in.. My opinions are mine. If you don't like them or disagree with me that's OK.- - - - - - Just don't bother Hating - I don't care It really is getting harder and harder to justify $23 a month for each sub.
