CCP Wrangler	Posted - 2008.10.22 21:17:00 - [1] It's time for another Live Dev Blog and this time we're introducing CCP t0rfifrans. CCP t0rfifrans started as Lead 3D Artist but is now the Senior Producer for EVE Online and will answer all your EVE related questions and as always the Live Dev Blog will be hosted by Mindstar. This event will take place on Thursday, 23rd October, in the in-game channel "Live Dev Blog". It starts at 20:00 GMT and lasts for about one hour. To ask your questions, please post them in this thread!

Jameroz Echoes of Space	Posted - 2008.10.22 22:18:00 - [6] Are you planning to address issues with other systems regarding inactive accounts? (Research agents, research, production, market orders) Now that StacklessIO has been deployed what kind technical improvements can we expect to happen during next year? Is ambulation the next expansion after QR?
Cailais Amarr VITOC	Posted - 2008.10.22 22:21:00 - [7] AWESOMENESS. Hmm..questions...so many ...erm - What's the future hold for: 1. Bounty Hunting 2. Smuggling - both mentioned in E-ON, now forgoten? 3. Soveriegnty Mechanics - old F&I thread 4. Planetary Interaction 5. 'Stockmarket' 6. Environments - mentioned in F&I and now forgoten? 7. Local and the scanning system (exploration could be included here). oh and none of the following: Dev: 'yeah thats coming, we dont know when, no details, but it'll be great' Mindstar: - 'Wow that sounds awesome - moving on...' As thats the equivalent of saying not a lot :) C. Originally by: Tarminic Your continued whining is somewhat diminished by your continued willingness to give your money to CCP.
Catherine Frasier	Posted - 2008.10.22 22:22:00 - [8] How many people attend these so-called blogs, as a percentage of active players? 1%? 5%? How hard would it be for CCP to produce transcripts for the rest of us? And if it's just too hard to do then where's the benefit to us in these live events? Sure, it's much more convenient for the devs to just talk and walk, but what about the players? Eve might "enjoy the privilege of a global customer base" but this kind of narrow language & timezone specific approach to dissemination is simply bush league.
Carsidava Ars ex Discordia GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.10.22 22:27:00 - [9] Edited by: Carsidava on 22/10/2008 22:28:45 Questions for CCP t0rfifrans: 1. Are inactive accounts' market orders going to be removed? 2. Are inactive accounts going to have RP stop accumulating? 3. What happens to inactive accounts when they're CEOs of a corporation? The answer to the first two should be "no", given skill points don't accumulate when an account is inactive. One would assume some sort of consistency, especially since market orders and RP allow accounts to acquire wealth while inactive, which is more unfair than allowing SP to accumulate. General question: will a transcript be supplied? I suspect the answer is "no", which is a shame because not supplying a transcript lends to this culture CCP seems to have against transparency.
cuncannon freelancers inc	Posted - 2008.10.22 22:55:00 - [10] Edited by: cuncannon on 22/10/2008 22:56:54 Heres a question that not many of the newish players will know,and some of us older players will remeber, but a few years ago on eve-tv during a break in between the tornaments, it was mentioned that at some point multiple outposts in the same system could happen. Now is this going to go ahead or has this idea been scr.aped now? Think also anchorable gate sentrys was also mentioned, but i been to sleep a few many times since then to remeber exactly? Now a question about pos's, can ccp please fix how long they take to anchor moduals and unachor them, or just allow a pos do do multiple things at same time depending on achoring skills or something? Can CCP also allow corp hanger array's to be named so we know which hanger array is what? Thanks in advance CC

Also any chance of non-lethal combat in ambulation someday?

Do you guys actually read these Blog forum questions before you do the blog? Felt the last Dev blog had a dev unprepared to answer real questions and give SOLID responses. Also, Are you assessing your projects time management schedules? You have promised more than I can list and the playerbase is getting restless.(Appease Us! APPEASE US!!!)

Tea Spoon Gallente Best Path Inc. Ethereal Dawn	Posted - 2008.10.23 06:01:00 - [36] As a performance fix, have you ever considered removing all ship to ship/drone collision detection like was done with wrecks and cans ? My experience is that a large number of ship collisions that happens for instance with gang warping a group of capital ships creates massive lag and desynchs.

Procurator Ultio	Posted - 2008.10.23 06:12:00 - [40] Originally by: Delos Korelian What is the DB load with the inactive accounts? What is the DB load with the accounts that continue to train while inactive? How exactly does EVE calculate SP gained, and how does it affect the DB? Thank You. You don't need a Game Producer for those answers. I'm not sure an artist/producer even understands the technical details to answer those questions. How about answers from someone with 45 years of advanced programming, including databases? Q: What is the DB load with the inactive accounts? A: Other than a little static space, zero. Q: What is the DB load with the accounts that continue to train while inactive? A: Other than a little static space, zero. Q: How exactly does EVE calculate SP gained, and how does it affect the DB? A: The simple answer is that when you click to start a training step the server calculates a completion date/time and points. Think of that as a post-it note in the char info in the database. It's an out-of-game waiting period. It just means you won't be able to use the new skill level until after that date/time. If nothing changes your attributes there is no processing involved once the completion has been calculated and stored. If you remain offline or your account expires, obviously nothing can change your attributes, so there is still no processing. The completion date/time just waits to be discovered when you log in again. Of course you can't log in if your account has expired, until you reactivate it. The longer version is that things can happen to "pause" training or change your attributes, thus changing the completion date/time, but only if you are online. You could get podkilled, for example, losing implants, possibly losing skills. Losing implants or Learning skills could affect your attributes. In these cases a function has to retrieve the currently training skill and recalculate the completion date/time and store it back. After that there is again no ongoing processing. Notice I didn't mention plugging in a new implant or unplugging an existing one. That's because the recalculation function is NOT called; instead you are required to pause any training before changing implants. That's what some of us in programming would call a "programming 101 cop-out." They make you go through extra steps so they can avoid a small amount of programming to recalculate the current training. When you pause a training step in the normal course of your char management, it results in the date/time and possibly points being removed from the "current training" variables, the current state of that step calculated, and then stored in the skill inventory for your char along with other inactive skill steps, any of which may be partial or complete. For the nerf they had to add a call to this "pause" functionality to the char disablement at account expiration to forcibly put a currently training skill into the paused state. When you resume a training step in the normal course of events, it results in the stored skill step being fetched from the inventory, a new completion date/time and possibly points being calculated on the basis of your current attributes, and set into the current training variables in the char info. No further processing ensues unless and until your client prompts the server to detect completion or an attribute change forces a recalculation or you pause the training step. When you log in, the current server date/time is subtracted from the active skill completion date/time, if any, to detect a possible completed skill. If completed, you see the familiar popup advising you of the completion. When you open the Char Sheet, your Eve client uses info retrieved from the database to construct an elaborate illusion of training as an ongoing process complete with a countdown of remaining time. The servers don't know or care anything about this, as there is no ongoing process. Only the client is involved in creating this illusion.
Procurator Ultio	Posted - 2008.10.23 06:23:00 - [41] Originally by: Tara Yang What is the average IQ of CCP higher ups? Can't be that high since you removed unsubbed training and stealing money out of your own pocket. And what is the IQ of Torifrans? I've been wondering about that myself. They nerfed one of the powerful addictive aspects of Eve -- the draw to get us to reactivate lapsed accounts to enjoy training completions. Even a slight drop or delay in reactivations will cost CCP money. Any thought they may have had of forcing people to keep accounts active to train was pure fantasy. The irony is that I have been completely aware of the almost diabolical mechanisms Eve has used to draw us in, keep us in, and keep us coming back, and I have never resented them as long as I enjoyed the game and had at least a tiny bit of respect for CCP. But since the nerf of unsubbed training, which I had thought was an extremely clever way to draw us back in, and the manner in which they handled it, I no longer enjoy the game and have lost that last litle bit of respect for CCP. Thank you, CCP, for freeing me from that compulsive cycle of always coming back to Eve!

Merin Ryskin Peregrine Industries	Posted - 2008.10.23 08:00:00 - [48] Edited by: Merin Ryskin on 23/10/2008 08:01:35 Just one very, very simple question. I know you aren't going to answer it, but I might as well ask: Why the are you ignoring the vast piles of player feedback on your upcoming gameplay changes? There is overwhelming agreement that you are doing things completely wrong. We understand (and most of us agree) that there were some problem speed setups, but the rest of the game was pretty well balanced. Why have you ignored all of the proposals for a more limited and focused nerf that would only hurt the problem ships, instead of the following list: 1) Blaster ships, especially battleships. Too slow to get in range, seriously hurt by the web nerf. 2) Missile ships. AB/MWD alone are NOT tank mods, and should not give ANY damage reduction without overdrives/nanos/etc. This is an across-the-board nerf to missile dps, even against non-speed-tanking ships of the same size class. 3) Interceptors. These are now suicide tacklers, little better than a T1 frigate for many times the cost. 4) Interdictors. As if they were not slow enough as it is, now they're really suicide. 5) Locus rigs. I guess it was just not acceptable having a useful rig besides trimarks/extenders/CCCs? Remember how nobody ever used them until you un-stacking-nerfed them? Yeah, that's what we're going back to. I suspect you wanted to nerf pulse lasers, but you've also killed off Minmatar and Gallente snipers, while doing some serious damage to the Caldari railboats. 6) Drone ships. You've said you're going to nerf medium drones, and judging by your record so far, we can only imagine how bad this is going to be... None of these ships are a problem on TQ. Nobody has been complaining about them. So why are you nerfing them?

Jmarr Hyrgund Imperial Shipment	Posted - 2008.10.23 09:00:00 - [53] Personally, I just want to know that everyone at CCP is ok, in light of the current economic situation in Iceland. It must be very stressful working there at the moment. Not only do you have various projects on the go with deadlines looming, a rabid pack of ungrateful players screaming blue murder at you because they can no longer take advantage of an exploit which basically let them play for free, but you have the economy falling down around your ears. It can't be very pleasant. Let us know your ok, your are human beings and have human needs. Is there anything we can do? Can those of us coming to Fanfest bring any essentials which you can't get in Iceland (I hear Marmite is hard to come by) I know there are lots of things that need fixed, and lots of things that need building, but if the people doing the fixing and building are getting to the point where they no longer want to do any fixing or building then its time to take a time out. I would like to make a suggestion. Give everyone at CCP Reykjavik a month after Quantum Rise drops where they can do what they like. No deadlines, no pressure, they don't even have to come into work if they don't want to. I'd rather be paying for game made out of love than for a game made to appease the shreiking of a minority of players. These are people trying to run a business and while some of the things they do to try and make that business a success may anger some of us, I'm sure we all agree that our world would be a poorer place without EVE in it. To everyone at CCP: Keep it up, don't get discouraged, and good luck. Fly safe and good hunting. "I can't afford to 0wn, is it possible to r3nt?"

Krimishkev	Posted - 2008.10.23 10:06:00 - [56] MAIN Q: WILL THE SPEED REBALANCE BE INCLUDED IN THE NEXT PATCH? Q: What will be done to compensate the Rapier for its loss in webifier power? This ship relies on its webs to be able to survive, since it has a paper tank. Q: What new graphics will be included in the next patch? Q: Why do you feel it was needed to adjust the entire spectrum of ships so harshly? Q: Why not just provide adjustments of the ships that currently reach LUDICROUS speeds in relationship to their size? Q: Why make stacking changes to all modules involving speed? Why not just make changes to the problem ships themselves. FINAL Q: Is there a possibility of T2 versions of the DRAKE, MYRMIDON, HURRICANE, HARBINGER in the NEAR FUTURE? A Thukker Mix Hurricane would be nice :) Say maybe a class of Elite Battlecruiser to bring some love back into the aspect of SOLO PVP.
Zadren Radek Gallente Ghost in the Machine Tygris Alliance	Posted - 2008.10.23 10:09:00 - [57] My questions: 1. What steps are being taken to ensure that blaster ships remain viable in light of the upcoming speed changes? 2. Can you release any solid plans on the future of the Black Ops battleships, other than to say that they are getting a fuel bay? More jump range? Ability to jump a fair sized cloaking gang a reasonable distance, ignoring cyno jammers and to also have a useful combat role in their own right? 3. Can you please reduce the price of bombs to a level that is line with other ammunition? 4. Ships such as the Arazu were hit very hard with the nerf to sensor damps. Are there any changes planned to restore there usefulness, perhaps with a boosting of the ship bonus, or even the addition of a module similar to signal distortion amps for dampers? 5. What reason can you give for the inability of Stealth Bombers to warp cloaked? Is there any scope for this to be changed?

Helison Gallente GREY COUNCIL Imorral Dragons	Posted - 2008.10.23 10:56:00 - [60] 1) Question specially for Mindstar (but Zulupark can also answer): Why don¦t we get any transcripts of LiveDevBlogs? For the last ones, we didn¦t even get a recording! This is humiliating for all, who don¦t have time to listen to the LiveDevBlog or who don¦t know English as well to understand them. 2) Is there any chance for more open discussions with players on new game designs? Several new features (FW, Certificates, ...) could have been much more powerful, if some concepts would have been changed a bit from the beginning. But at the time, when players get to see them it¦s much too late to change any of the fundamental concepts. 3) profit/risk, specially in regards of the mission system: Currently the high-sec still has the activity, which combines one of the highest profits with a very low risk: lvl 4 missions. Till now all attempts to change this were not really succesful. In low-sec and 0.0 the best activity are still high-end moons, but they are quite rare. Nearly nothing else (except cosmos radar plexes, if they still work) has a better profit/time rate than lvl-4 missions with a much higher risk. What are your ideas to change this, or is this fine for you that highsec has all the cookies? 3a) Are there any plans to improve lowsec, like a viceroy-system to reduce the risk there? 3b) Any plans to improve 0.0? Like making a common solar-system more profitabel? Make it more difficult to hold a large area of space (multiple regions)? 4) Moving asteroid-belts to the exploration system? When? 5) Complete redesign of Sov/POS Warfare. When? 6) Complete redesign of Scanning, Local and Cloaking? When? 7) Is there any redesign of the NPC loot-system on the way? (like removing T1 items from loot...)

Mr Daytrading	Posted - 2008.10.23 11:34:00 - [65] Edited by: Mr Daytrading on 23/10/2008 11:41:01 I have a few questions about stealth bombers, i like the potential of these ships and the idea behind it. But as they now are they arnt usefull. Most people that think about the stealth bomber are thinking about cruise missiles. But im interested in the bomb part of those ships. As how they now are its a total failiur. So i have a few questions: why cant a stealth bomber use cov op cloak? (maybe only cov op cloak when bomb launcher fitted? Or u can only fit 1 of those 2, cruise or bomb and only cov op with bomb launcher fitted?) why do bombs such little damage if u concider, speed, signature ratius and transversal velosity of small ships? Why are bombs soo slow? (to slow u cant catch anything with it that has a MWD) isnt there a way to give the stealth bomber a 100% damage resistence against bombs? Being in 0.0 is fun, but when u are newly in a corp they dont want to give out pos corp hanger rights becasue u can anchor the whole pos. So basicly u are stuck in systhems with npc stations in them. Leads to my next question: why isnt it possible to give pos hanger rights to someone without he being able to unachor mods/tower? Final question for me: Does my questions inspire CCP to look at the Stealth bomber design and change/modify something in relation with bombs?

argolighthand	Posted - 2008.10.23 11:46:00 - [67] I seriously doubt anyone will recieve a transcript of anything as it would require ,a commitment from ccp, and the only commitment ive seen anywhere in forums is "if you dont like it quit". Rest assured the above commitment is in effect! What use is new content when the content we have now is either totaly useless, or inoperative, ie. elite drone ais, tom, **** n harry dna not to mention zors. At this time i believe the proper attitude concerning eve is, Who cares? In a recent event a player deposited 10 mil in trit to his stock pile it poofed! The player contacted a gm thru the marvelous petition system and was in structed to,"clear your cache" which removed all game logs. Once the player accomplished this he was instructed to produce proof that he had the 10 mil in trit to begin with, as customer service couldnt find anywhere evidence that he had it to begin with. No the person was no me! I happen to be privy to the situation. I guess what im trying to say is Dev Blog? who cares? If you cant put it in writing for all eve players to read, then all you are doing is wasting space and the time of those who thirst for meaningful changes in eve and content that works. Please excuse any typos or bad grammer, truth is im like ccp who cares i sure don't im busy stockpiling worthless dna and elite drone ais, as well as other meaningless items.

What id like to know is, are there any plans (not talking about the mythical Orca) to make Industry a little more interesting? Maybe make people use probes to scan down ALL asteroid belts (which would totally frack the macro miners)? I just feel that there could be alot more to industry (in the way of excavation, not the research/T2 part)? Also....are there any plans to 'enhance' or make the engineering side, (I.E. ship fitting and configuration) a little more 'IN DEPTH' things like manually adjusting power to different modules etc...? fanks for watching.

Trinneth	Posted - 2008.10.23 12:44:00 - [73] I'm a realtively new player, there's never been an alliance tournament since I joined, but I very much enjoyed watching the old ones, are there any plans to hold another any time soon? Ghost training I think some acknowledgement that the change could have been better handled would be appreciated by a lot of us. Buried deep within the thousands of comments on the issue are quite a few suggestions for ways CCP could provide ghost training for those who want it either with a reduced cost subscription which would only allow training, or with an optional fee on resubscribing to have ghost trained skills added to your character. Has there been any discussion of implementing these or similar features? Please can we have skill queues now? The upcoming UI changes are most welcome, what're your plans for future improvements to the UI system.
Saladin Minmatar Eternity INC.	Posted - 2008.10.23 12:44:00 - [74] 1. When will we see ambulation? Ballpark would be nice since many thought it was coming in Midas 2. Will Midas remove material penalties for specific POS arrays (e.g. component assembly array, ammunition assembly array)? Does CCP see POS's as a way to relieve manufacturing slot congestion in high traffic areas, or is it not on their radar at all? 3. Will we ever be able to run reactions (reactions, not moon mining) in High Security space? 4. Will the change to webifiers in the nano-nerf affect people's ability to use webbing to make freighters enter warp quicker? 5. Given all the nerfs that super-caps have gone through and given that they are far more vulnerable (especially moms) than they were on initial release, is there any intention to allow them to dock? 6. When will CCP develop a jump planner tool similar to whats is available on EvE-ICSC. Why has CCP out-sourced this kind of functionality to its customers when it should be available in-game? 7. Will CCP develop a secure method for trading ships that cannot dock, e.g. Moms and Titans? 8. Secondary markets: When will EvE have a formal stock market trading system?
Hugo Rune Minmatar Ministry of Serendipity	Posted - 2008.10.23 12:48:00 - [75] When are we going to see - Changes to blasterships to compensate for the webifier and speed changes? They are completely hopeless on Sisi, unable to track targets up close or (obviously) reachthem further away, and are struggling to get in range and hold down targets. - Black ops boosts? - The actual "content" to Quantum Rise? Like new ships, game mechanics, t3? manufacturable implants?, stuff like that! Stuff that changes the game for everyone in a positive way, rather than yet-to-be-balanced nerfs? -Some boosts for balanced ships like the Huginn and Rapier which are going to be obsolete?

Aikhiko Somotho Caldari Imperium Galactica	Posted - 2008.10.23 13:15:00 - [77] CCP staff pointed out that you didn't know about Ghost Training was listed as feature, and were surprised by reaction from community. Fixing a bug and removing a feature that was a major selling point seems different. Bug abuse is unfair, using an advertised feature that was kept in game intentionally and was advertised is fair, so the change that was planned to be a "fairness patch" became unfair to many players. Do you consider releasing a "fairness patch" with compensation in the near future? Do you plan to include skill queues in them? Do you plan to reduce skill training times with it? Learning skills became a major annoyance for new players and new alts, and somehow reducing the gap between new and old players are essential for keeping new players beyound the 7 months mark. Gradually reduced skill training times (10% / year since release of Eve), removal of learning skill (and boosting attributes to allow faster learning) would be better for the game. What do you think about this? At "removal" if learning skills: I would turn them into teaching skills. When a character a teaches someone (for free or for ISK) a skill he knows, the bonuses of these "teaching" skills would add to the attributes of the students. The basic education skill would provide education slot, the attribute affecting skills would give a boost to the student who learns a skill. What do you think about this idea? I think if learning skills as is are recognized as a problem these proposed changes would make the game better on the long run.

Mr LaboratoryRat	Posted - 2008.10.23 13:45:00 - [79] One thing i really really hate is the downtime time. Its not a issue that the server go's down its a issue when it go's down. Im living in GMT +1 timezone and the server always go's down at 1 o'clock in the afternoon till 2. Lately i have seen a few extended downtimes (half hour-45 min later) Its then alreaddy half past 3 or 3 o'cloak. Normal dinner time is 5. So in 1 afternoon i can play 2 hours, i find it redicules and very innoing, so my question is cant downtime become another time? like 3 hours earlyer or 13 hours later?

Zeroskills Endgame.	Posted - 2008.10.23 15:22:00 - [82] Edited by: Zeroskills on 23/10/2008 15:31:05 Two questions: 1. "Nerf Scalpel" Is there any possibility that CCP could address simple "easy fix" balance issues on a faster time scale? Perhaps something like the Guild Wars model, which implemented incremental stat-oriented balance tweaks on a regular basis. It seems that significant developer resources go into major balance-related design changes (e.g. the speed rebalance , changes to Nosferatu modules, reduction in unbonused EWAR effectiveness, implementation of turret tracking, torpedo redesign, etc.). Comparatively few developer resources appear dedicated to smaller statistical tweaks (e.g. battlecruiser shield regen, caldari capital CPU, siege torp HP, autocannon RoF, etc.) -- an understandable consequence of a long development pipeline full of major projects. A faster implementation of incremental balance changes would be useful given the coming speed rebalance. The complex knock-on effects of these sweeping changes guarantee that Sisi testing won't uncover every resulting balance problem. Once problems reveal themselves on TQ, I want to measure CCP's response time in months, rather than quarters or years. Silly things like the Typhoon having less ArmorHP than ShieldHP and T2 ammo being either amazing (sniper ammo) or underpowered (close range high damage) makes it hard to have confidence in timely fixes. Would CCP consider creating a small team of devs dedicated to quickly identifying balance issues and implementing fixes, perhaps on a monthly basis? Perhaps you can call them "Balance Ninjas" and give them cool t-shirts. But someone at CCP needs to "own" the fine tuning of ships and modules -- the nerf scalpel, rather than nerf bat. CCP needs to replace its haphazard approach to "little fixes" with something systemic -- the laudable, but overdue, Citadel Torp HP boost got attention after a dev stumbled onto a 50 page thread and took the initiative. Lastly, the nerdiest and less ideological members of EVE's player base, as well as recent CCP hires therefrom, could be a great resource for data and ideas. 2. A New UI Is a completely redesigned UI currently in the pipeline? EVE's current UI compares very poorly to those in MMOs of the last several years. Specific issues that need to be addressed: - color blindness usability (ARRRGHH! WHY ALWAYS RED AND GREEN?!) - remappable hot keys - customizable buttons (I shouldn't need a drop down menu to change orbit from 15km to 20km) - much less busy module display (those poor little buttons are overfilled with module activation, heat activation, heat damage, ammo, and now cycle timers and weapon linking) - sharable overview and bracket settings - less reliance, generally, on drop down menus and mouse clicks -- more keybinds and buttons - no more random window movement, resizing, snap-to neighbors, etc.

No other MMO allows the player to gain XP while inactive, but EVE is not any other MMO. EVE requires real time training, some of which takes over a month to do. Many people used this time to take a break or recharge or take vacations or deployments for military people. Now it's gone and many are angry. What are CCP's plans to ease the sting if any?

Cyprus Black Caldari School of Applied Knowledge	Posted - 2008.10.23 16:46:00 - [100] As a new player just under one month old, I'm struggling ingame. Vet players griefing newbies, tutorials just as confusing as the game itself, and a lack of fun content. Hell, I don't even really play anymore. Just log in, train another skill, and log out to go play something else. Will there be anything coming down the pipeline for us newbies? All day long it's mining, ratting, missions, and one sided PvP encounters. I tried taking a look at FW, but the drawbacks of joining seem not worth the hassle.

Nicoli Malthus Caldari The First Somerset Strikers	Posted - 2008.10.23 16:47:00 - [102] In regards to the speed nerf. Why havn't you just looked into putting a speed cap on all ships, relative to their size? This would be the simplest fix, and require the least amount of work on all fronts. Plus it would be the best way to avoid all the 100+ pages and several threads on why US the customers have expressed tons of unhappiness towards how this whole fiasco is being handled. Thanks for your time.

Qahina Minmatar Huang Yinglong	Posted - 2008.10.23 17:09:00 - [107] Hi every one! I have a question concerning the speed changes. It seems to me that most of the intended changes are to rebalance PvP encounters, but what about PvE? How moch exactly is my battleship becoming slower? It could sereously hurt the ability to do missions if a battleships speed is cut by 30%. Are the ships base speeds are going to be cut down or only the way modules affect them?
Borgholio Minmatar Quantum Industries RAZOR Alliance	Posted - 2008.10.23 17:13:00 - [108] 1. Please tell us about the Orca. What will it do, how does it compare to the existing Rorqual? 2.

Quagnar	Posted - 2008.10.23 17:16:00 - [109] I would suggest that comets appear in different systems randomly and that if found can be mined to make money, also stars should go nova at least once a year. Notice can be given to the occupants of that system like a month in advance so everyone can move out. Insurance can be bought for lost items and bases. Its the natural thing to do, then new systems can replace the ones destroyed. Also in space you are really not limited to spped as you are in the game. for instance as long as you have thrust you will gain speed slowley, so I don't think ship speed should be so limited except for acceleration.

Darcha Dark Production Industries	Posted - 2008.10.23 17:28:00 - [115] what's the future bringing for old useless content such as: defender missiles, reinforced bulkheads, mines, melted snowballs. when are we gonna get a new eve introduction movie like "eve never fades", rather then just release movies. when are we gonna get a new eve intro movie (ingame movie) why is the range on t2 heavy precision missiles so ridiculous, it omits the whole "short range weapon" thingy. Certificates are an excellent idea for obvious reasons, but offcourse this is not easy. a vagabond for instance looks by slot layout like an armor tanker, but probably not 1% of the vagabond pilots flies it armortanked, almost everyone has a shield tank. To avoid issues like that and eve not being a "hold the player by the hand" game like some MMORPGs, why not stick to tech1 ships with certificates. ECM is a thing which has never seemed to work correctly. first they were underpowered, then overpowered, then underpowered again and now they are massively overpowered on specific ecm ships like the rook and the falcon. It cannot be intentional that a falcon can perma-jam a ship with 3 eccm fitted. But rather then more tinkering with the ecm strenght number, why aren't u looking at the actual % chance-to-jam calculator ? or rather why not implement an actual counter. (fi, if jam chance is 50% on 1 ecm module, that's 1/2 so opponent gets jammed, and then the ecm module cannot be re-used until 2 activation-cycles are gone, making the jammer work exactely 50% of the time. if jam chance is 10%, then target gets jammed first cycle and then the module cannot be used for 9 cycles (making a total of 10 cycles) ) chrs, Darcha ______________________________________ "There are NO bugs in EVE, just oversights" ----- Oveur and TomB, EvE fanfest 2006

Shalmaneser ili Caldari Gemeinschaft interstellarer Soeldner	Posted - 2008.10.23 17:29:00 - [117] When the CSM brought up the topic of Black Ops in its meetings with the developers, it was made one of the top priorities of the issues needing focus/change. Suggestions were made to give Black Ops a separate fuel bay and to allow Deep Space Transports to use covert portals for refueling purposes. What can you let us know about your view on these ideas? And more importantly, will we see any changes to Black Ops in Quantum Rise? A yes/no would do. Also, considering the overall lower speeds we will experience in Quantum Rise, will the speed bonus of the Panther be adjusted accordingly, or rather be replaced since a battleship cannot act like a Vagabond?

Inquisitor Berthez the oNe Penal Colony	Posted - 2008.10.23 17:36:00 - [119] I'm sure not many of you have noticed this, and I'm not sure if there is already a topic on this, but DEVS PLEASE UPDATE THE NPC CORPS! There are many EVE chronicles/stories and now there is even a book! Now since this whole "Empyrean Age" is based on power changes inside NPC corps such as the Ishukone and Caldari Contructions CEO being DEAD, and the rise of the new Amarr empress etc. none of this has been reflected inside the game. Look up the CEO of the Emperor Family: It's still Doriam KorAzor. Wasn't he dead/missing for some time now? I not a hardcore roleplayer like some might be, but please update the game according to what you guys write. Otherwise the stories leave little impact, as they don't effect the game. PS - Another idea: It would also be very cool if us capsuleers could experience ingame events as well. (coronation of Sarum anyone? I would love to see 20+ Amarr titans in formation at the Amarr station) Original: Reflect NPC Corp changes ingame

Copy Cath	Posted - 2008.10.23 17:49:00 - [123] In light of the devblog on weapon grouping i have this question: How can i tell how many of my guns are ready to fire another volley? Or do they all fire, no matter how many guns it takes to kill the target? Here is an example: I fire all my guns on a cruiser, it will take two volleys (EXACTLY 16 shots total, 2 for each of my 8 turrets) to pop him. Then i fire on 4 frigates. Each frigate takes 2 shots (1 shot from 2 turrets), thus i can instapop the four frigates with my eight guns really quickly. So how is the frigate scenario handled? Will all eight guns shoot the ONE frigate i target and the excess damage left in void? If that is the case, then weapon grouping is just another not so thought through feature and i will still use F1-F8.

We train and train to get these ships and then their nerfed to crap because most players are to (Insert comment of your choice: Lazy, ignorant, bored, drunk, whine to much) get these ships and fly them adequately. Instead of breaking out the nerf bat why not add new mods, skills, ships, to counterbalance adverse effects. We are happy cause we have new content to play around with making the game even more fun, and our for instance say 300M nanotars, blaster boats etc dont become a pile of junk

Since this wont be read I'm pulling no punches. 1)Medals & badges.I listened in on the devblog on this subject and found it to be a trivial and meaningless bunch of insignificant babbling that wont have a single meaningful impact. 2)Similar topic: New content:If it doesn't have an impact on the game who cares?Certainly NOT CCP as you are the people putting this junk in. 3)More ships.who cares what the planets look like or what badges and medals they dont have when they own every ship and module they feel they need?If it doesnt have an impact it doesn't mean ANYTHING. 4)Hmmm,more on ships....Just how hard would it be for you to drop in programming that has no gameplay effect....oh say ship logo's or paint-jobs.....not hard at all considering the work you put into other useless improvements... 5)At the very least give us a vauge idea of what the orca is and does other than saying it's a high-sec mining cap ship. 6)Ambulation......A real nice tease...if it doesn't come out soon well then eve will no longer interest me enough to play...mid-summer...any later and goobye. 7)For the sake of a decent game,for the sake of the hopeful players,for the sake of your own wallets......COMMIT TO SOMETHING....ANYTHING.... just the rantings of a disgruntled player......

Also any chance of non-lethal combat in ambulation someday?[/quote The idea of planetary combat is a great idea, would add a lot of possibility to a game that I hate to is becoming very stale. In my opinion if you want to make this game more desirable to the masses you need to offer more content, and I'm not talking about more ships or equipment. People are going to get bored very easily if all they have to look forward to is mining/building and mission running day in and day out. Sure there is pvp but what new player has the skill or the isk to throw away on destroyed ships and equipment? I know some will have a problem with the idea of being able to go to planets because they say " this is a space game ". Well there are planets in space !

Xenomorphea Gallente	Posted - 2008.10.23 19:44:00 - [157] Speed Nerf, and Nerfs in General. While I perfectly understand the necessity of game rebalancing, I sometimes fail to follow the philosophy behind the actual nerfs and how CCP carries them out. It appears to me that some obvious factors are not taken into account. SPEED NERF The problem we had is that some HACs can do more than 8 km/sec, and inties are so fast that no weapon type can effectively hit them ... unless they are webbed and their MWD is shut down by a neutralizer (see, the answer is in fact already there). Then fix the problem changing stats/bonus on these ship types, and maybe reducing the bonus of overpowered rigs like the Polycarbons, to reduce the speed about 20-30%. Also, you can increase the speed on the type of weapons supposed to hit them (light drones, etc.). And anyway, valid counters were available (Rapiers/Huginns, and heavy neutralizers), so what is the big fuss about anyway. Why change the speed balance of ALL other ships instead? You are opening a can of worms. - Blasterships will become nearly to useless, they are too slow, and accelerate even worse, cannot get in range fast enough to be effective. Amarr will be the new FOTM (yes, I already started cross-training a couple of months ago) - Due to web changes (60%, are you kidding me? Domination web just 50%?!?) it is absolutely impossible for a blaster BS to even hit a close orbiting AND webbed cruiser, frigates are not even an option. Even worse, they cannot hit a cruise even at optimal. - the MWD reactivation delay is a horrible idea, as is the warp scrambler that can shut a MWD down. Close range fights will see even less mobility = boring. - 28+ pages of arguments on Bellum Eternus thread on the ideas and suggestions forum, and as far as I know no reply and no valid argument to support why you want to carry out this nerf this way -> the wrong way. Again: you are completely changing the balance and combat characteristics of full classes of ships nobody ever complained about. The problem was too fast Vagabonds, Ishtars and Interceptors. Fix those (or even do not fix them, I really do not care). Leave the blasterboats alone, please. Your implementation of this nerf will make solo-pirating close to impossible (as it was almost only possible on that class of ships), and reducing the freedom of players in the game is a bad, bad idea. ECM - Falcons Can't you see it is friggin overpowered? I am starting seeing gangs with just 6-7 ships, 3 of which are falcons. That cannot be right. No cruise class ship should be able to perma-neutralize 3 BS class enemy ships, period. Also, ECM needs to be completey rethinked, as it is the only sort of "weapon" you cannot really counter with any module (ECCM is not enough), and that renders you useless when jammed. Fighting with ECM is lame, and boring. Some comment about these concerns, which I share with many other players, would be greatly appreciated. Cheers, -Xeno

eldeago	Posted - 2008.10.23 20:04:00 - [160] You need Concord to gain more control over High Sectors like 1.0-5. You have no control over rogue players that start stuff with new players, like ore thieves messing with the Containers of a miner. They flash red weather they take it or not, and they bully new players into fights they can't win, this almost drove me away from the came. I'm sure it has made many a beginner quit EVE. Their is so much for a new player to learn and so much time involved in learning, to have some power happy idiot take it away. You still ore from a miner in High Sec, should be a crime that alerts Concord and the gate guns. After all the ISK must flow, so like it or not miner's are the back bone of EVE.

ByFstugan Big Shadows Atlas Alliance	Posted - 2008.10.23 20:09:00 - [166] QUESTION TO DEV-BLOG: I really like the look of this coming ship the Orca, the tractorbeam bonus and the passive gang-bonus. What I lack is a real cargo for it to be a "mini-freighter", as I understood U want it to be. But I guess you don't want it to compete with regular freighters, so here comes a suggestion/question: Could the Orca not be given a ROLE-bonus that ore takes 50% to 75% less space in it's cargo. Then a piece of Arkonor would fill 4-8 m3 instead of 16 m3 when placed in Orca, and this ship would fill it's role as it should and where it should. *It would be a temporary/passive compress bonus, similar to the Rorqual, only that it's only as long as the ore is placed in the cargo of the Orca. PS. I posted this in another thread, but dunno if it was wrong so here we go again. DS. _______________________________ The wise knows what he knows not.

Vanderie Amarr Athanasius Inc.	Posted - 2008.10.23 20:28:00 - [199] No offense, but how do you think blaster ships will be better? Let's take the essential blaster ship, the Megathron for example. Now with the web changes, it will be nigh-impossible to keep a target A) pinned down and B) track smaller targets. You can fit a scrambler if you want to so that you can cut off MWDs, but then you are killing the ability of the Megathron as a solo ship (not that it is much of one now) as your effective tackling radius is (with a t2 scrambler) ~11km. The other fun bit is that if you get scrambled in turn, you now have no way to move closer to the target due to not being able to MWD. Therefore, you turn into a lead weight which can only die while other ships orbit outside of your range or under your tracking speed. You could say that you now have to fit a scrambler as well as the standard tackling gear (warp disruptor and web), but then you realize you only have 2 mids left, and they are used by the injector and MWD. If you get rid of the MWD, you might as well reprocess your thron for the good it will do you; if you get rid of the booster, you will cap out in under a minute and a half due to the huge cap requirements of the blasters. So, Zulupark, how do you think blaster ships will be better off due to these changes? -Vanderie

Inquisitor Berthez the oNe Penal Colony	Posted - 2008.10.23 20:37:00 - [249] Please a quick reply on this: There are many EVE chronicles/stories and now there is even a book! Now since this whole "Empyrean Age" is based on power changes inside NPC corps such as the Ishukone and Caldari Contructions CEO being DEAD, and the rise of the new Amarr empress etc. none of this has been reflected inside the game. Look up the CEO of the Emperor Family: It's still Doriam KorAzor. Wasn't he dead/missing for some time now? I not a hardcore roleplayer like some might be, but please update the game according to what you guys write. Otherwise the stories leave little impact, as they don't effect the game.

Apolion	Posted - 2008.10.23 20:53:00 - [327] Thanks for the great game guys! Thoroughly enjoying it. Just because people are complaining about this..."SHOOT THE DAMN MACRO MINNERS" Solution to corp. standing hit CCP please make call for corp. assistance button that requires intelligence to activate that canÆt be "macroed". BUMP UP "SKILL QUEUE" Bombs for stealth bombers should be triggered/set to explode at a distance or set for proximity. Most of this should be client controlled. Skill for packing ships with Riggs. THIS PART IS the STAR TREK MMO KILLER UPGRADE [b]Possible uses for Ambulation/b] "Real Space Pirating" Capability to invade enemy ships with the intention to steal the ship or rob it of goods. This would require targeting specific module targeting do disable ships without destroying it. Boarding and hand to hand combat. Multiplayer ships Possible roles for players in multiplayer ships engineering to allow module overcharging and replacements/swapping. Gang linking to aide fellow pilots with transfers of shields, caps and other war complications. Ship tractor beams for towing captured ships. Sequestering pilots Any pilot can commit suicide if the kidnapping becomes boring but of course will loose his implants. Alliances or corps/ gang that have sequestered pilots can ask for ransomed or expect to have an invading force come to save their team mate. and or other station mischief. Weapons inside stations can be filtered by anti weapon turrets, if some level of civility is desired. "Would like" Station windows to lounge out while I drink my bear. Planet and moon ambulation and construction and activities. Maybe giving the capabilities of bonus manufacturing for specific Items if there is a need to de-blob the universe this may be a means. Of course this will require "SOME' substantial hardware resources to offload the EVE-servers. Please forgive the grammar and spelling errors. I just learned to walk yesterday :)

How many times do they have to shaft the community before people realise THEY DON'T GIVE A DAMN! Pay up and accept that they will do whatever the hell they like, and treat everyone like fools OVER and OVER again... ...or stop paying (which is the only real option if you want to have any chance of things changing). THEY DON'T CARE! ...I don't know why they don't care. Seems utterly stupid to alienate their playerbase like this, but I'm now utterly convinced that they don't care. Will they care in a few months time? I suspect so, but the snowflakes are already piling up. The avalanche/exodus of discontented players is going to be very difficult to stop once it gathers its full momentum.
catherda Gallente Hoist The Colors. Pirate Coalition	Posted - 2008.10.23 21:10:00 - [332] I listened to some the blog which I usually avoid. Especially the last part. Here is an interesting question and please keep in mind i am a budding programmer and aware of the process it takes to develop code and everything.Can you guys care even less about what everyone is saying or the questions that are being asked. have you even considered the consideration for your player base. i got the impression you guys careless and even don't give a flying sh*t about who you are making the improvements for. With every patch the improvements that are needed are often overshadowed with the stuff you screw up. Lets take sensor damps which yes might have needed a slight adjustment that you improved to utterly useless. Now not only are you planning to improve speed but now you gonna not improve the blasters and railguns that would have been a simple fix to the speed issue. As well as the simple issue of improving some of the bigger ships ie battle ships and capitals making the more able to maneuver easily and possibly make faster. No instead we are gonna break everything. Oh yeah in the process totally invalidate several months of skill training that everyone has paid months for. Hmmm maybe you need to fired the idiots and get new people in and get fresh set of programming eyes to improve the game instead of breaking the game. I for the most part also see the need to get more nodes to handle the ever increasing player base or wait is it your plan to lose money while your player base is building by losing those players who been faithful for over 3 years plus who have been nothing but patient. I also find it amazing how inept with how you guys are taking so long to make walking avatars when there about 50 million sources of code available to enable to do that. So in short keep the solutions less complicated because the more complicated you are getting the more you are breaking the game. Second quit trying to interfere with the bob goon war and concentrate on the whole player base. you will influence the war better that way then what you are doing. Yes there is a pattern with the patches in which you enforce and yes people have picked up on it.

So you whiners just adapt or die, everything is changing even games... besides you can use whatever argument you like but 6km/s going battleships are sick! omg go back to kindergarten and learn to spell or at least use spell check. i wasn't whiny i was pointing out in a intelligent way what makes the speed nerf idiotic and also I pointed out that the devs came off that they don't care about their player base and pretty much blew off everyone in the blog. I even pointed out how not improving the stuff that needs to change is breaking the game. Its obvious you really haven't spent the money and time to spec anything to understand why everyone is complaining but that's ok we all know you are a carebear.

So you whiners just adapt or die, everything is changing even games... besides you can use whatever argument you like but 6km/s going battleships are sick! Alright Alex, I'll bite. I am not whining about the whole nano issue except of what it'll do Interceptors, Interdictors, and death-traps like those. My main concern is the lack of consideration that CCP is putting into ships that rely on stasis webifiers, micro-warp-drives, and the like (IE: Blasters). The Deimos was a death-trap before this patch. If we didn't land on top of our enemy, we'd be hurting by the time we got into range. It's problematic at best with the current nerf and no changes to blasters. CCP didn't listen to the thread in Game Development. 27+ pages detailing (with mathematical and statistical support) how this patch would be the final nail in the coffin for small blaster boats (Deimos, Astarte) and how it would kill ships like the infamous Gank Megathron. CCP doesn't listen to their player-base, obviously pointed out to everyone who didn't know, by todays dev-blog. *** ~Solo Hoist The Colors. (CEO) Pirate Coalition (Yar?)

Yes Solomon, if you put it this way I can agree, it would be really bad if ceptors especially would be renderd useless, still i hope CCP will not let it happen. As you said blasters have their limits now and after speed nerf its going to be even worse... but i can understand CCPs position i belive - lets try how the new system would behave and then make some improvements. But tbh i dont have much about blasters so feel free to flame me:))

Also with the speed nerf those ships built on the basis to provide a ship that can tackle with the speed and accuracy that a tech 1 frigate can't provide is now totally useless therefore knocking those ships out of the game. by refusing to improve the blaster it then knocks out several more ships that required more specialization in skills. more lost time and money. most the changes to the game that the devs come up with creates it so that in battles the bigger blob wins. Instead of making so that a smaller group could win against a bigger group by using specialized tacklers and cruisers or other specialized equipment operators. to put it in care bear speak if you run missions with 3 and a blob of 10 people came in to your mission you can't run away because your ship is too slow and you wont be able to use blasters cause they could out do your guns.

I really dont think ceptors will become useless, sure they will not be as effective as they used to be, but still they will be able to tackle sucessfully. To your wierd money calculation, i dont get it. Are you paying this game to be able to fly ceptor or to have some fun? To bring you an example i can use assault ships, which i know very good. Meny of you would consider them completly useless, but with decent fit and tactics iam quite succesful with them and i belive ceptors will be the same case. But ofc i can be wrong. Ad blasters: would you be happy to exchange their extra damage for greater range? Ad blobs: that is not CCP fault problem is none wants to lose the fight and the easiest thing to asure victory is to bring greater numbers...thats old as mankind itself...
tempora darkbone Gallente Ascendancy Project	Posted - 2008.10.23 22:32:00 - [342] ok have you guys ever thought of making it so that a corp can choose the color scheme to the ships in said corp? or making you so you can customize the colors of your ships? also when you make it so you can walk in stations you shuld make it so you can customize the look, size and so on of you character, as well as have like a gallery effect so you can see your ships and others ships as you walk around so yu can get the feel of the true immensity of the ships compared to a human

Destination SkillQueue Are We There Yet	Posted - 2008.10.24 12:38:00 - [359] Originally by: CCP Mindstar: Skill queue is popular idea. Is this something that's being looked into? Zulupark: This was something I was UNOFFICIALLY discussing with the lead game designer in purely speculative manner. Our feels were that you're kinda opening can of worms. We want people to play the game instead of just putting things in a queue and not play. This is is not official and we'll look into this better in near future. I'm sure I'm not totally objective about adding a skill queue, but you don't want it because of how you feel and it might cause issues. Are you kidding? Try to imagine what you would think when a player opposed your new idea(like the speed rebalance) with such deep and well thought out comments. The only real reason why it was a bad idea was ghost training made it a character farmers wet dream. I know this might be shocking news, but the current system doesn't prevent character farming either. Implementing a backup skill would not change things much compared how skilling work now, but it would remove much of the inconvenience and training time loss from the system. And again people log on to play EVE, not the skilltraining feature. I log on to play and try to plan my skills so that one will finish while playing, so I can minimize any inconvenience. If you interpret this in a way, that I logged and played just because of your skill system, you have got it backwards. Also take note that I have more than 1 account as have many others. Characters on these accounts are very different and I change between them according to how I feel like playing the game at the moment and to take advantage of their skill sets. Since I only play 1 character at a time, this means there are always characters that do nothing, but log on to change skills. This is a consequence of your players forced to have multiple accounts to master multiple aspects of the game at the same time. I have no problem with this since it forces people to specialize and maintains the value of that specialization, but it will increase the number of accounts that are not playing and only logging to change skills. Finally, simply because a change may cause some issues hasn't stopped you before from implementing new ideas. If you have concerns, lay them out in a blog and let people discuss ways to counter, minimize or eliminate those concerns. (Pro tip: charts and numbers always help) I know we are sometimes coughmostlycough a community of rude and whiny bastards, but we are also resourceful and clever people, that usually appreciate when we are treated as such. So if some huge undeniable obstacle comes up, I'm sure people will accept it even if grudgingly. Thats all I have to say for now. Thanks for bothering to read this.

What's the point? There's a 27+ page thread on how the speed nerf is going to ** with small-scale combat, and you ignore it. Blaster boats are going to be **ed to hell, and you say "I feel like the blaster ships are going to be better with the expansion." We rail against changes that are going to fundamentally change the game, making a number of ships worthless to fly, and you ignore it. What's the point in saying anything here? CCP is just going to ignore it.

CCP t0rfifrans started as Lead 3D Artist but is now the Senior Producer for EVE Online and will answer all your EVE related questions and as always the Live Dev Blog will be hosted by Mindstar. This event will take place on Thursday, 23rd October, in the in-game channel "Live Dev Blog". It starts at 20:00 GMT and lasts for about one hour. To ask your questions, please post them in this thread! Update: Unfortunately we just heard that CCP t0rfifrans is unable to make it for this Live Dev Blog. CCP Zulupark, Associate Producer and Content Director, will take his place. As CCP Zulupark reports directly to CCP t0rfifrans he will be able to answer all your questions just as well. Question: Why are you asking us to post questions if less then 1% is gonna be awnsered. If there is no time in the devblog, why not just sit down and write the awnsers. Yeah that is time consuming, but this dev blog was time consuming for us aswell.

Xayvius	Posted - 2008.10.30 11:54:00 - [380] Over the course of a year, the maximum population grows and declines between 30,000 to 45,000+ players online at peak times. The new 'Stackless' technology has had an over whelming effect for much more smoother and faster game play. A technology that has been in demand for some time. Does CCP hope that the new 'stackless' technology is a vital step to accommodating a rise of population figures for the near future? Are we about to see EVE online become more popular throughout the PC gaming community? - I would like to think so Regards Xayvius
ByFstugan Big Shadows Atlas Alliance	Posted - 2008.10.30 16:14:00 - [381] Could the Orca plz be given a passiv storage role-bonus to storage ore, so that ore only takes half or even 10% of it's natural size. As a way to indicate that it really is a mining-supportship. Since it got no jumpdrive as the Rorqual, and can't package ore (as it shouldn't be able to imo), it would need more cargostorage. And since it shouldn't compete with freighters the solution with a specilized storagebonus for ore is needed. This is a much better solution than have a seperate cargo for ore sometime in the future as I heard was a suggestion. That's just gonna be messy and every Orca-pilot that use cargo for ore will use both cargo's for ore, that just complicates things. _______________________________ The wise knows what he knows not.
