All EM missiles will now have the name GÇÿMjolnirGÇÖ.
All Thermal missiles will now have the name GÇÿInfernoGÇÖ.
All Kinetic missiles will now have the name GÇÿTraumaGÇÖ.
All Explosive missiles will now have the name GÇÿNovaGÇÖ. Seriously? how much dumbing down do you have to do? Cmon CCP EvE's variety and complexity is what makes it what it is and what we love, if i want a game thats beatable by a 3 yr old i will play farmville. I'm sorry but the current way that the modules/ammo/guns/implants/boosters and all are "named" are a complete cluster-F. I've been playin' this game quite a while and unless you have a stellar memory trying to remember what each name is in regards to what you want is almost impossible. Having to show info on every single module to find the right one for the right circumstance is a huge time sink. I applaud the renaming... When you use a certain group of modules/ammo/implants a lot, you do memorize the names and become familiar with the nomenclature. You become specialized in those areas. It makes sense that when you go outside your specialization that you have to put more effort into it. And that helps the new player experience how? I get your point, but you shouldn't have to get a degree in eve module naming 101 in order to figure out what modules and other stuff you want to fit to your ship or your Eve character. The current naming schema makes absolutely no logical sense. I applaud the renaming; it'll cause a lot less confusion for the new players, and for the old players that just want a quicker way to sift through the module lego box.
Currently, you can find or link every module by it's UNIQUE phrase. "Cold-Gas" for 1MN named AB/MWD, "Y-T8" for 10MN MWD, "Y-S8" for 10MN AB, Mjolnir for EM torps, but Gremlin for EM rockets. It is actually faster to use, once you know what is what.
The word on backward compatibility.
Thousands of players already memorized the nomenclature and wont be to happy about not beeing able to use it again.
Why can't you just add those precious "simplifiers" to the existing nomenclature.
Why can't it be
"1MN Cold-Gas Arcjet Thrusters"
"Mjolnir EMP Torpedo"
"Gremlin EMP Rocket"
That way you'd allow to use the "Unique Keyword" approach, which actually makes a lot of sense, and the "Functional keyword" allowing someone to find his "EMP Torpedo" or "1MN".

Besides, if you are going to name ALL EXPLOSIVE MISSILES "Nova", why do you need to introduce NEW KEYWORD nomenclature to do that? You might as well just call them "Explosive Heavy Assault Missile" and "Kinetic FOF Cruise Missile" and be done with ALL the nomenclature.
Now you just going from 4 unique keywords per missile class, where each one allowed to search for the particular damage type of a particular class of missile to 4 keywords, one per damage type, which we will need to learn again.
If you want to retain the "sci-fi" style designation, and leave the keywords in there. Then just use the old ones and go like
"Mjolnir EMP Torpedo"
"Gremlin EMP Rocket"
instead of
"Mjolnir Torpedo"
"Mjolnir Rocket"
"Mjolnir Heavy Assault Missile"

This patch is pointless really aside from the bug fixes. The assault frigate thing is kinda nice but ultimatly it's just going to trigger more ship balancing down the line. So everyone be ready for the interceptor balance patch, the electronic warfare balance patch etc.
CCP, stop listening to all the strange sad gits who play your game (basically anyone who actually goes to the fanfest) and sort the game out, its simple:
ADD MORE EMPIRE, ADD MORE NULL and please give us Jove space access already :P. All this stuff you keep adding and changing is wasting everyones time. This game was at it's best when it felt vast, i've not felt that since the warp to 0km and increase in server traffic :(.
Renaming modules? Thats going to go the same way as the stupid new modules icons that were rolled back.
Oh and one more thing, just give yourselves enough time with a patch? Being strung along is the most infuriating thing for anyone "just another hour, oh actually just another two, oh no another three". People don't mind not being able to play for 6 hours or so every now and again, but they do mind being messed about by your "estimated uptimes".
Rant over,
Eve is still fun though so at least we all have that! :D
