This is a torturous and non-sensical design choice that makes probing an utter nightmare. Please give Wormholes and Combat Sites their own signature types. Refreshing Lemon-Lime~ |

WH's really should have their own sig type |

Either or, so long as Combat Sites and Wormholes are easily distinguishable from each other. It makes no sense to group them together. Refreshing Lemon-Lime~ |

The sense lies in the fact that if you could find all the WHs in a system at once, then it'd make exploration too easy. If you want it easy, go play something else.

What? How would you be able to find all of the WHs in a system at once by changing this? Refreshing Lemon-Lime~ |

GAMES SHOULD ALWAYS BE FUNDAMENTALLY FLAWED, TEDIOUS TO USE AND SHOULD HAVE NPCS WITH 100000000 POINTS OF DAMAGE! DESPITE THE FACT THAT GAMES ARE DESIGNED FOR PEOPLE TO HAVE FUN AND NOT BE A SECOND JOB!

I think that it's fine as it is. If you have good scanning skills with a covert op bonused ship its a painless and fast process.
That's of course if you scan the good way being 4au from planets with a 5 probe spread
Or the bad way 32au on a 5 probe spread narrowing down on each sig, this takes forever and is unneeded.
If you live in a WH then this process gets even easier as you simply have to drop 1 probe on a remaining BM to eliminate that from the new sigs.
If you visiting a WH then you need just 2 things :
1. Patience
2. A dedicated probe ship alt to gtfo should that WH vanish |

Scan down enough of the two enough times and you will get a feel for which is which based on how close you get to warp-able hits per the AU range of your probes.
Then you will, at 8 to 16AU ranges, start to presume which is which and you will be right most of the time.

I was going to disagree and post several well structured arguments for my case but the volume level at which you have typed has whittled down my resolve and I concede my position.
But hey, why stop here. Why not make it even more unfriendly for 'da scroobs' and make every scan result read "I don't know, something, maybe." That's like ten times the fun. I used to be a Blade Runner like you, then I took an android to the knee... |

Why is it torturous?
It is already possible to distinguish between sigs on one scan.

People like you already made wormholes super easy.
You are to lazy to use your brain, tricks for finding wormholes and combat sties very quick where already there from almost the beginning now you have that given on silver platter and yet you still whine.
Whine whine whine I am to lazy i need everything this instant now without needing to use my brain !! Comfort to me now !!!!! |

Please go and get a job rather than lecture people about not wanting to work hard in a video game. Exploration is one of the few things that CCP have added to this game which are actually pretty fun and interesting to do, they should be improving this feature as much as possible and putting the content on steroids.
I'm sincerely beginning to believe now that the only reason people complain so much about making MMORPGs either is because they cheat and don't want their phony advantage taken away from them by everyone else.

I use my brain constantly anyway so I don't need to work hard to use it, I'd just rather not have to use it to get past pointless things that devs should be fixing.
.... By the way, what does a poorly designed UI have anything to do with game difficulty?

Technically using your brain is working hard for every living person, i mean have you SEEN how many calories the thing uses in comparison to everything else?!? |

If you wish to complain about time sinks in EVE, then I'm afraid you're playing the wrong game... EVE is full of time sinks, by design.
Probing up stream is MEANT to be hard, that is, having WHs and combat sites intermingled. |

Nice one, didn't know that myself :) I tend to use my brain to think about art and economics mostly which is why I don't like being annoyed by my games when I'm trying to have a break while doing it.

So yeah, **** you, I don't want to waste my brain power on something so useless and we've got scientific evidence to back it up that it does, win! :)

Then your are playing the wrong game and you want it it change to carter your own personal needs of being brainless. If you want a quick adrenaline rush i suggest counter-strike.
Although i think you would whine there too that you have to aim or move around.
GTFO dont spoil the game for the rest of us. |

wormnav. Easy to use, tells you the likely strength of a wh in system. I have used it to easily find a route to HS through 4 systems and it has accurately picked out the wh's in each one. Use it to see what sigs are likely wh's, scan the others down (if you are only looking for radars, mags etc) |

I'm sincerely beginning to believe now that the only reason people complain so much about making MMORPGs either is because they cheat and don't want their phony advantage taken away from them by everyone else. My main lives in Wormholes, my alt does exploration. There are guides out there that show how to scan fast. I'm not even *good* and it takes me what? 30-45 seconds to ID a sig? If that? That is *not* hard work.
We have people in corp that can scan a sig from -0- in one/two hits, all it takes is a *little* practice... What's that, 15-30 seconds?
Skills + Practice (+implants/ship bonus) = fun.

Yes...when I started playing trials 3 years ago, Exploration was great.
Then came wormholes.
I have DAYS where I have found, in 5 systems around here, 11 WH's and literally NOTHING else.
Many times. And they are not resolved as WH's till 2 au or 1 au.
