I will be more than happy like many others to test the changes and make a review on them, all I ask like many others I'm sure is that we get a new mirror.

Current mirror date: 17th January 2008
--------------------------------------------
Since so many people keep asking the question of when the next mirror is, here is the answer. Mirrors are only made when the devs have a reason to need an updated one. Mirrors take quite some time and work to create which is why they're not done that often.
To make a mirror to singularity takes around 2 hours of downtime to copy the tranquility database, followed by a day or more of work internally to prepare the database for use. It is therefore not feasible to do this regularly. Asking the same question that's already been asked by hundreds of others before you will not change the answer.
As for skills, If you want more skills on Singularity, start training them on Singularity.
So when is the next mirror? SoonÖ
and sure training is one way, but 7 months difference between your real toon and your test server toon is going to be pretty hard for a lot of people to judge how this update will effect them.

Well then it looks like the testing is going to be left to people who can use the modules. I'm sure they will have tons of people wanting to join the server on Monday. I assume that a new mirror will be in place by then. If not, I'm in the clear anyway.

42mill sp here. just will be a little short on my carrier skills. Was thinking more on actual assets and how the effects should be tested on an up to date mirror when its as serious as a nano nerf. Want it to be as fairly edited as possible.
My argument is without nano gangs, you have blobs and... well blobs... so one of two things will happen now. battleship blobage on a grander scale, which is happening regardless of this update
OR
More likely you will see Nano gangs turn into Recon gangs. 5 rapiers 2 falcons etc. Warp around cloaked, keep hidden when blobbed aposed to running. Then we will get a Recon nerf (which in a way has already happend. Reduction in Ewars been happening gradually for a while now, the whole -50% aposed to -90% on webs, the scripts for sensor damps, the effectiveness and range for jammers, The nos nerf.)
All I know is that CCP wanted EvE to have small ships and small gang warfare and try to get rid of blob warfare when in fact evidence of their recent and previous patches show that any and all edge that smaller ships had over their larger tank and spank battleship counterparts has been removed.
In an interview after the most recent tournament one of the guys from CCP stated they where looking into fixing the Ewar Frigs. Talk of making them immune to webs etc. I was in favor of this, thinking that we where going to be reciving a cheap, fast frig that couldnt be webbed seemed like a good counter to the issues of nano.
Lastly, Why Why Why do all games start of with the much loved "Rock, Paper, Scissors" setup which in eve would seem perfect. Every ship has a weakness to one type and a strength vs another. The same as the races, Ammar not being very good VS Minmitar but blowing away Caldari and so on. BALANCE kills games. If there is balance then why is there a choice, if you have the same odds with one race or ship as another then why give the option to train 4 seperate races. The Vaga should never be compaired to the Cerb when it comes to what they should be able to do and their strenghs. By BALANCING the game your destroying the diversity of the game which in turn is srinking the tactical options avalible and so on.
All the talk about how the MWD has been made into a MANDATORY module, its the so called BALANCE that's caused this nothing else. That's my two cents anyway... and I'm not even American I'm brittish so I dont know where I got cents from.

I love this change.
People are giving me the 0_0 look since I just finished training up to do all the nano crap on TQ, and ive got a nano zealot, curse, and navy omen in my hangar atm....
I just look at it like now I can unfit the nano and fit gank/tank and actually catch and kill stuff again.

I agree with Aedron, can we please have a new mirror on Sisi to test the changes?

yeah, I agree that speed is an issue. I also agree with others that say reduce the snake implants only. But lets see what this nerf brings on monday.
