Unfortunately I managed to mix up the Live Dev Blogs, this is about Medals and Certificates.

Oh. Oh. Ooh. I have a question... or two. Or three.
When's estimated time of deployment unto TQ?
Will there be player-specified certificates in the future?
Will the medals be showable on avatars in WiS? --

Can you give medals to people that are not in your corporation and if not, is it possible to implement this feature in the future.

There will be a special medal for people who ghost trained.

With the recent ghost training nerf, is there any plans or potential for implementing skill training queues using certificates?
Will there be more certificates introduced, especially for capital ships and other more amusing ones like Hull Tanking?
Can I have a certificate just for being awesome?

This. While you have stated that it will be corp-only, could we at least have an explanation? Since medals are private by default and easy to delete, it would just be a waste of ISK giving someone the "You Suck!" medal. So why make it corp only? Why not allow us to award medals to anyone we like? This would be a major improvement, since medal-worthy fleet operations often happen between players who aren't in the same corp/alliance.

Maybe some keen player could transcribe the chat into a few localised texts. As an English speaker I find them very informative and useful, but I sympathise with Johhny Foreigner. If they were all in Icelandic most of us would be fubar.
Oh any my question, give us a secondary training slot/skill queue, when skill A finishes training automatically start on skill B. Now you have nerfed this so called ghost training this will provide no benefit to non paying customers.
Finally on behalf of Gordon Brown, can we have your stuff?

Will a CEO or director be able to preconfigure medals such as pilot killed 20 pilots in one week, or Pilot Mined a Million m3 in Ore automatically receives a specific medal and possible reward in isk or items? Would be pretty cool for say corps that specifically do PVP, Mining, Missions the corp could have several preset Medals with rewards e.g Pilot completes 200 Missions in one week or 1k in a month, Or will it always be static so the CEO or directors have to create a new medal for each character with limited options? Thinking of the above with Ambulations the options are trully endless.
Has the ability to set a Certificate to train which would only start by confirming and giving the skill books been talked about. This gets into the larger Skill queue certificates debate i know but certainely needs better clarification due to recent events.
Possibility of adding corp certificates so a Director could devise a plan including numerous certificates they want pilots to train towards, And also if you complete all certificates in one category you are rewarded with a Diploma (call it whatever you like) in that category.
Thought of adding certificates to the recruitment page so Corps can add certificates they require pilots to have to join and change them depending if the corp needs Miners, cap pilots and so on, Pilots could have a check box which automatically shows which corps would accept them with his or hers current certificates kind of like a University.
How about more medals for FW such as for Points or kills achieved in one week but not be easy to achieve.

Bios have been limited to only a certain amount of characters.
What about medals? Is there going to be a limit on the number of medals someone has?
I can see some people making 1000 medals all dedicated to how "uber cool 1011001!!!" they are...
And I was wondering if clicking info on someone and having their medal page show up will cause lag on my end if they have tons of medals.

Will you be able to display medals in ambulation?
Will the FW medals fall under this new system?
Are there any plans for medals/certificates to be released in the future given by the system for certain "achievements"?
Are there plans to release certificates for capitalship skill-sets?
Will certificates be altered as the state of the game changes and the skill-sets they recommend become outdated?

As put together on test right now, a lot of the certificate requirements don't make sense.
Will corporations and alliances be able to develop their own certificates to offset this shortfall?

Edited by: Blake Rathen on 15/10/2008 17:39:36 Wrangler, you may want to post the dev blog on certificates in the OP. It would also help to have a blog on these elusive 'medals', which, currently, people can only guess at from the information available (unless it has already been explained; if so, please share the link).
As for the live dev blog, my interests lie in the general vein of 'how will certificates and medals enhance corporation management?'.
- e.g. will a corp member's certificates be viewable in a handy summary table by either the CEO, directors, or other corp members? This function would be useful for assembling fleets, assigning directors/leaders, and discussing skill training between members.
- e.g. will alliance XO's have access to members' certificates as well?
Edit: i.e. will certificates be a 'sharable' piece of a pilot's corporate or alliance identity?
Thanks.

Are Certificates useful for long time players in established corps?
Are Medals useful for players in small corps?

It says in the blog that the certificates can be set to public or private by the player. So technically yes, they will have access to them if the player gives them the access, however everyone else will have this access too.

If you wanted better player-customized branding, why were medals chosen over a revamp to the corp logo generator? Its a relic of early EVE that is totally out of place with post-Trinity. _______________________________________________ CCP CENSORSHIP ALERT: CAN YOU SPOT IT? |

Why did you give all other race battleships mass reductions (sometimes as high as 15%) and thought to increase the mass on all the Minmatar BS? Making them the fattest group in the game?

A couple of quick questions.
Currently on SISI it costs 25mil ISK to make a medal, but only 1 mil ISK to award it. Doesnt this devalue a medal - i.e a corp makes one and then throws them around like confetti, any thoughts of swapping these values?
Any plans to link certificates to missions? e.g you need to be a Gallente Military Specialist to complete a mission - or as a guide to newbs (recommended certs)?
Could Medals be used for other functions? i.e as bounty rewards with follow on mechanics - holders of the "Carebear Corp Gallantry Medal" recieve a 10% discount on all Carebear Corp Products (Im thinking of Store Fronts here)?

Will metals and Cirtificates be linked to the API? Is there a limit to how many metals one can have? Are there any requirements for making metals? IE corp roles? Are metals composed of prefab pieces or will you allow custom uploads like you do for alliance logos? -------------------------------- To borrow a phrase:

Will there be any way to "automatically" award a corp member a metal? IE, after getting 10 kills in PvP or some such?

Some infos from SiSi:
You can now create medals and give them to people in your corporation (not outside). They can then decide whether to show them to the public, keep private, or even drop them. Medal creation is a quite elaborate process, ensuring a really nice variety in medal looks. Names and descriptions are purely for you to decide on. Only directors and CEOs can create medals. Medals cost 25m to create, and 1m to give to someone. A single medal can be assigned to someone multiple times.
Now a question:
It currently does look like as if only CEOs and directors can create and hand out medals. Will there be a role - maybe in some future expansion - that allows giving out medals?
I generally would like it if as a few as possible tasks would require directorship, as that role is rather sensitive :-)

Edited by: Manfred Rickenbocker on 15/10/2008 21:50:35 Ill drag over two of my questions from the dev blog on certificates:
Can we add in certs to those adverts we can post for corp hirings so that people can sort for those they qualify and add in more qualifications so corps can find the people they need/want?
For corp/alliance visible certs, can we list people that do/dont have certain certs? For example, we REQUIRE everyone have Cyno operation at level 1 and it would make it easier on us to berate those that dont. Edit: followup question: highlighting those who DONT have "let alliance see my certificates" enabled. ------------------------ Peace through superior firepower: a guiding principle for uncertain times. |

*) Will it be possible to create medals for the alliance?
*) What happens if a corpmember leaves the current corp?
*) Is it possible to deprive a corp-member of an already grated medal?
*) I also would like to know, when weŚll see certificates for capitals etc. and if there is a chance for player-created certificates (like "Sniper T2").
