Edited by: OldWolfe on 10/12/2007 21:30:29 I've done quite a few lv 4's* and saw they're all the same ol' same. Wheres the 100's of new missions CCP announced? I've heard some rumors that it all ended up as mining missions or "modified" missions.
I'm hoping (however slim) that CCP actually didn't fully release the 100's of missions but rather held them back until the right time to release it all upon us.
*Edit* Lv 4 combat type missions

Let's say 500 total missions Let's say that they're 50% combat, 25% non-combat, and 25% modified/altered missions That means there are 250 new combat missions This is about 60 per empire faction Assuming an equal distribution, that's 15 new combat missions per level
Now given the fact that not all agents give out all missions, you can see why it may take awhile for you to see a new mission. ---------------- Tarminic - 29 Million SP in pink Forum Warfare |

only new level 4 i've seen was called 'Pot and Kettle' and was a 5 part mission. i've seen several new lower level missions, though.
would love to see some more variety in upper level missions tbh.. how about that next upgrade ccp, eh? that is of course unless i just haven't seen all the new ones yet either.

Tarminic, If you havent noticed yet, more people are noticing lv 1 missions more often than any lv 4 missions. So how does your thoughts below work exactly?
Quote: Now given the fact that not all agents give out all missions, you can see why it may take awhile for you to see a new mission.
Theres easily hundreds of lv 4 mission runners, and none has told me of anything new. And yet theres plenty saying aye for new lv 1 missions.
I'm just hoping that CCP hasnt completed all the mission updating yet and will add alot more Lv 4 combat missions on some future dates.

Also lots and lots of new mining missions, lovingly designed to anger both miners and non-miners alike

what sorts of agents give these mining missions?

None. They're all mining missions for worthless, un-marketable ores and ice that you're faster to wait 4 hours and turn down than attempt if you're not a mining character with a barge at your mission station. And even if you are a miner with maxed skills with a Hulk/Mackinaw handy you still won't make the time bonus

after running New Frontiers(a seven part mission) level 3 I will never accept it ever again... no good loot, mostly rogue drones that don't even drop good drone drops and far too many energy nuet towers with infinite range

i didn't do it. refused it the three times i've seen it as it was twice against amarr and once gallente. i don't do missions against main factions on any character i've run missions with so far. it just trashed your faction too much. its a little more work to keep them all balanced otherwise (you think you don't have variety now, try running them the way i do) but it's worth it if you find yourself flying all over empire.
(btw, yes it's possible to still get faction for anchoring empire pos this way but don't plan on getting anything much higher than 5 or 6 without trashing another a few negative points. social skills help a lot)

Thats the problem, the majority of us mission runners simply dont want to mine or else we wouldnt be mission running in first place.

Which probably equals similar tasks in higher lvl missions. As if my gall/min standing wasn't low enough already.  ------

Well, I think CCP is trying to expand the types of missions, and not one particular type of mission. The new missions I've seen were level 1's mining 20,000 units of a worthless type of Veldspar, and a 3 mission arc involving carrying three items one at a time from one system away, and something involving a civilian codebreaker which I don't think I accepted. These were all given out by a Manufacturing agent. Since Trinity was released, maybe a third of the missions given by this agent were of the old selection, the rest were all new missions.
Have only run one level 3 mission on my main account, so I can hardly comment on that selection.

We were supposed to get hundreds of new missions when CCP adopted the Dragon Code over a year ago. We were also told that the way in which missions were designed and run would be alot easier with Dragon Code. Since that time, I think I have personaly seen maybe 5 to 7 new lvl 4 missions.
CCP needs to do alot less "fanfest this, fanfest that" and start updating their game. Devs being drunk 24/7 doesnt really help much either, although it can be amusing at times...... cough cough * BOOT.INI * cough cough.

I haven't seen any new lvl 4's... but I've certainly had my fill of Recon. I've now done it 7 times in 48 hours... and only two other missions in the middle somewhere. *sigh*

i have had to do 4 mining missions of late and the only one that seemed to work was the worthless veldspar mining one. By work i mean not flagging as complete when your first mined unit of 2500 hits the inside of your hold with a hollow 'clang'.
The other three (all worthless versions of crokite, arkonor and bistot) all flagged as complete on mining the first unit and completely despawned (natch) after DT. Not being a mining specced character and having a job to go to has resulted in despawned missions, bleary-eyed late arrivals at work and several petition-mail conversations with various GM's.
Please CCP, these mining missions are evidently broke -can you not remove them until they are fixed? (or better still remove them altogether hehe  )

Do you really think that paying a company 15 bucks a month for the amount of content CCP offers in each upgrade is worth it? Its been a steady decline in amount per patch since I started playing back in 2004, and seems pretty much inline with the boasting they do. Less content / more back-patting, increasing with each patch release.
Now I realise that back when EVE was new, it was a unique and purely awesome. The graphics were outstanding and the size of the game world was amazing. That was 4 years ago. Now, EVE doesnt have the unique-ness about it anymore, as more and more games come to market. Now, Im not saying EVE has had the biscuit, but only stating that its my opinion that CCP should focus more on content amount, rather then fanfest, and congratulating themselves whenever some backwoods-3rd party gaming magazine decides to issue some award to them. And before you forum trolls try to jump me, I am well aware that there are different 'divisions' or teams within CCP, each doing their own, be it development, website updating, or PR. I just get the feeling that there is not enough in wages being paid to developers, or not enough developers on staff. I could be wrong, but the obvious development issues (boot.ini)(lack of content upgrades) and the overwhelmingly popular forum whines regarding LAG, speak for themselves.

The thing that annoyes me is that they are spending a lot of time making mining missions and other junk that few ppl like to do. Or adding mission levels to low sec that VERY few people participate in.
I'm starting to think the devs dont want us to be missioning anymore and just wants us to do exploration.
