Bandwidth sounds like this really neat feature we already have. The fact that you can only control 5 drones at once is sufficient and it already allows us to have larger bays on drone ships to be used for multiple waves. Why do we need a new attribute to do something that we already have?
My understanding is this. With this change they can give you a drone bay big enough to hold 5 heavy drones BUT at the same time using bandwidth limit you to only have 5 mediums out at the same time. This will allow them to give lower level drone boats (like vexor, thorax, arbitrator etc) more room for different drones and for more waves without increasing their dps at the same time. ---------------------------------------- A Guide to Scan Probing in Revelations |

Yeah, I just got that a few minutes after posting ^^;. It also means you can't relaunch abandoned drones to control more drones than you can fit in your bay. It's about time that exploit was closed (Note that it is officially not an exploit).

It has been stated very clearly over and over that Ambulation is not part of Rev 3, or expected anytime this year at all. it is something for next year (or so it is claimed)
P.S. Rev 3 appears to be full of win. I can't wait.

Frankly, I wish they'd find an alternative to drones.
Nothing like five interactive NPCs per ship, sucking up valuable server resources, to cause things to grind to a halt.
I always thought it would be better to make them behave more like module ammo and use a high slot launcher. You lock a target, and launch the drones at the target. When the target is no longer locked/dead/left system, the drones pop. They would obviously have to be alot more expendable, but it would solve the problems of gatecamps with hundreds of drones out.

personally, as much as i love the new additions, it seems like there is a lot of server down time, unannounced at that. perhaps ccp should get the current eve server/client bug free, rather than makeing constant upgrades (which will no doubt cause more bugs)
pls ccp can we fix one release b4 makein an new one?

So let me get this straight, the New BSs are going to be a HAC type BS and a Recon capable of jumping other recons and CVOs like a titan does? Are the Black ops BSs going to get E war bonuses like the other recons as well? I'd love the idea of a scorpion with rook bonuses, but then think about a BS sized Pilgrim. It'd nos/neut another BS dry in 10 seconds. How easy would it be to kill a mothership with 2 of those and say a few other ships? If not, what are it's bonuses going to be? With bandwidth, I assume I'll still be able to deploy 10 fighters with my carrier and DCUs will probably increase bandwith. Will this allow you to control more of a smaller drone? Could - Someone save me from this Sanity. |

A recent interview from the game conference in Germany stated that the new client is optional.

Id like to comment about the new kill mail system. I love the idea... but not the implementation.
Its not about stats, its not about k:d. Its about one thing: control.
This feature SHOULD NOT BE FORCED UPON EVERYONE. If you are going to implement it then give us the choice to show that info or not. Give us privacy controls.
What your currently suggesting is just as insideous as corps demanding screenshots of my log in screen to join. I dont care if your Sir Molle himself, I'd still tell you to shove it if you demanded that info. Its called privacy for a reason. Can others see my wallet? can you see who I have LP with? Do you know who my research agents are, NO, NO, and H E LL NO.
Kill stats should be controlled by the player. that simple.

I Sure hope for the Caldari Black ops Battleship it's the Scorpin. That's symmetrical, Like having two legs instead of one and Black OHHH that would look COOL.

More on the drones please I would like to know my 5 million SP in drones hasn't gone waste, getting BS5 so my Domi has the OMGWTFBBQ drone DPS would be annoying to waste. Oh and the new Gallente BS better have drone bonuses as I have no gunnery skills !

Originally by: CCP Oveur the "Violators". Their versatility will work for many play styles but we also wanted something which would work for PvE play styles. This doesn't mean they will work well for only mission runners, so there is no need to brand them with the misnomer of the "mission ship".

Ok, the LP store from other factions is getting some extra love...
CAN YOU PLEASE INCLUDE ORE IN THERE?!?!?!
now seriously, the ORE LP store really need some luv. It's not just because few people do missions for them that they can be left out in the dark.
After all they are the ultimate miners, but still have no exclusive gear for miners or industrials. Why is that??

BPO's my friend, its all about BPO's.
While Im not sure of the long term market affect of NO BPO's, I still think BPO's have a stabalizing effect on the market while invention exists.

Drones and Bandwidth? Criptic teaser, new drones?! YAY! but what does Bandwidth mean? I can only use Light Drones in my 175m3 Drone Bay? Are we going back to the old system of drones? Good times for those that have been there. An Eve relic if you have or does Bandwidth mean purely about the drone bays size? or that I can only control one type of drone? as different drones would surely use a different frequency of... well... bandwidth? More thoeries if you please?, or a straight answer would be awesome :)
Dual functionality? sounds interesting for certain mods like the Sensor Dampener, but what about my guns? can I put them in defense mode to shoot down incoming warheads? could I have "Defender Drones" for when I give them a "Guard/Defend" option? does everything get dual functions? or just a select few that should/can have them?
The long awaited T2 Battleships, mighty interesting, a Cov-Ops BS that can open small Jump Portals, prehapes some bonus/penalties to the existing Jump Portal Device to accomidate it? allowing certain mass to jump through? (I say Penalties as the Destroyers have an awesome one, there is something about 8 Rails hitting you at 2 seconds RoF that seems... alittle much from a single ship) One can only imagine the possibilities at these little teases.
A Heavy Interdictor? (Im calling it an Ensnareor, see what I did there? ^^) bonuses to tackling? or just going to be a bigger, slower, tougher Interdictor?
More T2 Ewar ships but frigate sized named "The Recon Class" no-ones said Recons have to be cruisers right? nor does it say cruisers in the skill tree for "Recon", good times ahead here :)
More missions, what can I say, we all do it or heard of it and more content in the LP store, fantastic!
Heat and its strategic uses, fantastic addition in Rev 2 and now going in depth, however, "You can thereby create buffers by slapping your favorite named/faction module between two Tech 1s if you like." Does this mean I have to now strategically place where my modules go when fitting the ship at the fittings screen? Great idea if Ive understood it correctly.
Legal boosters? an Empire use, gonna make Empire alot more fun then, bring on the Empire wardecs! now Booster Enhanced! Those Corelum Syndicate guys are sure going to have their work cut out for them :P
Music in Eve? can we really import our favorite tunes into Eve? O please make it so! Curzon Dax, eat your heart out
Killmail overhaul, more meta gaming?... I read great things within :) no more "Im not on the killmail" whines \o/
Corporation registry? Eve Wiki? even more meta gaming greatness! Eve is getting bigger and better in more ways than one.
Total thumbs up, but CCP, take your time! 600 fixes by November? if you cant do it in time, whats the worst that can happen? Im not going to whine when I know Ive got an Ensnareor and Black-Ops ship waiting for me }:] Christmas came early ^^ -

These changes sound awesome, and I look forward to the new T2 ships (and the months of training for them). However, is there a chance that some of the other persistent bugs that have been around for nearly a year could be addressed (drone region high-end asteroid ratios, for example)?
Also, please, can Amarr finally get a stinkin' Astrometrics frigate? You can even take the model for the new Caldari ewar frigate and use that if you want.
