So, I've been waiting and waiting for the devs to fullfill their promises made in the Live Dev logs about the much vaunted "boost" patch that is supposed to be coming out on the 11th; and all I can find with specifics in it is this dev blog. Does anyone know if this is it?
Don't want to sound ungrateful, but uh, damn. Was kinda expecting a little more than that the way the devs have been talking in the live blogs. I am glad the pilots that are getting a little much needed love are; I was just under the impression that we were ALL promised a LOT more in this patch. By the devs own words in the live blogs a whole bunch more was supposed to be addressed: AF, more module boosts, fixing the m3 nerf on the loot tables for mission runers, etc. etc.
If the blog I linked to is really all that's comming.... all I can say is that I hope they don't break a whole bunch of stuff like they normally do in patch deployment giving us this "legendary boost patch." Because, if they do, not sure if the whole thing is going to be worth it. Just saying.
Guess that's what I get for getting my hopes up depending on the Eve devs to deliver..... Oh well, maybe a real boost patch will come along someday.

dont you know how this works by now?
they'll tweak a few ships

then they'll tweak some other ships

I know. I know. *sigh* I just somehow got in the frame of mind that I could actually believe what came out of the devs mouths. Must have been drunk or something to get that gullible. Thanks for slapping me back to reality. Thanks for the thoughts. Cheers.

Devs said they didn't have the sufficient balancing team ressources to do AFs now, and it must be same for other stuff...
It will come, soon(tm)... -- Pocket drone carriers (tm) enthousiast !

A lot of the changes in 1.1 are good/needed even if some don't like em. But yeah, you are right OP. Every decent question in the live blog got answered with 'boost patch'. Here it is, and no love for a lot of the things we were basically passed off by zulu on.
And they gave the omen, another turret with no grid/cpu upgrade. It already couldnt comfortably fit 4 unless you were nano.

I love what's in 1.1, but I think the 'boost patch' is getting split up into multiple patches.
Certainly any patch that doesn't contain tweaks to AF's in general and the hawk in particular can't be considered a comprehensive 'boost patch'.

Questions: So, if the devs didn't have enough "resources" to work on the things they SAID they were GOING to work on, then where did those "resources" go? Did they run away? Were they furiously wa-nking in a corner all this time? Working on ambulation, which will actually "DO" nothing in game (according to the devs) rather than fixes they promised which WOULD actually do something?
I just really chapps me when developers use the "lack of resources" excuse. Because, if you think about it, all that translates to is: "your issues weren't important enough for us to give our attention to."
Just another in a long list of disappointment from the devs. Last time it was a single item fix, that took three tries to actually "fix." People complained about the single item then, and the devs official response was that "all of the attention we were promised was coming in the boost patch." Well, boost patch is here, and I really don't see all of this "attention" we have been promised. At all.
Just had to vent. I'll stop now. It was a really long post for a "/signed" post anyway.

I sincerely hope you are right. Pretty lame otherwise. An official dev comment on this specific assumption would be REALLY nice. Hint. Hint.

at the risk of sounding entitled: ccp over-promises and under-delivers. consistently.

Yup that's it.
In essesence because the 'balancing team' didnt know about the player bases concerns regarding a whole range of issues at the start of the live dev blog, and then got bombarded with questions they had no answers for they just replied 'er...boost patch'.
Hopeless really.
