Remember what you always tell Goon, its not quantity that matters, its quality.

You killed a bunch of drakes, we killed lokis tengus and a nyx. Sorry you can't replace them as fast as the drakes get replaced, maybe soon you'll ease up on the straw and get with the program.


yeah thats why this noobs still killed 100b more ;)

and talking of quality while shadoo fcs drakefleets is kinda ironic :D


Shadoo hasn't fc'd a drake fleet in days, you're dying to DBRB and DurrHurrDurr.


Let that sink in for a bit.

Assumably nanotechnology is beyond you. It is theoretically possible to turn anything into anything else.

nanotechnology involves precision molecular fabrication. Creating elements from other elements is something we've been doing since the 1940s (uranium into neptunium into plutonium, two hydrogen atoms into one helium, etc). Manufacturing elements is just energy intensive to do, yet nowhere near the level of energy consumption that lots of fundamental EVE technology uses constantly (wormholes, cynos, warp drives, lasers).

its pretty cool because of our new understanding of the higss boson we might be able to reduce the mass of your ego a bit... which would be awesome considering the state of these forums...

so it's a price check to make sure tech doesn't go above more than double what is now? I guess that's a fair step, but I'm pretty sure the effects won't be seen on the game at all? like this will change nothing right? it's better to sell what you have, and buy tech off the market.

why would use this new system? whats the goal? I still like the dev blog, but I feel confused as to it's effect.

I'm not sure how you intend to convince anyone of your perspective when your writing is so horrible. At any rate, this has nothing to do with the changes described in the Devblog.

I'm now of the belief that these changes will change nothing.

So one semi-passive income is just replaced by another one and tech moons will keep in norther hands.

What's the deal?

Again I'm surprised why CCP hasn't chosen the most obvious solution. Wasn't CCP looking for more active income such as mining? Imo planetary ring mining and a new moon resource redistribution would be a much more appropriate solution.

How suprising that the market was brought out of Cobalt 2 months ago....probably the only way this new Dev was allowed to start playing with Tech, giving Goons the heads up before....
Funny how the CSM had their Newcastle, UK reach-around with CCP Unifex and friends ~2 months ago... call it a conspiracy or the delusions of the paranoid, but the CSM and Devs are only human. One thing leads to another, a hand-job is given and sekret game design information is the reward...


Huh? The CSM summit was in Reykjavik, there was a player meet (open to the public) in Newcastle, UK a month or so ago. The CSM hasn't even known about this change for longer than a month, and only got the specific changes in the last few weeks, so perhaps your tinfoil hats need adjusting?

Also, I would also like to point out that just like CCP devs, the CSM is monitored by CCP's Internal Affairs department. I know for a fact that some CSM members had piles of tech that they were unable to sell before this blog went public because of this policy.

If you have a specific complaint, by all means post it here or send it to internalaffairs@ccpgames.com.


For what its worth, as stated we really just got the details recently. I can tell you I've been waiting for it to go public as at the start of the goon wars against us they called in a favor and super-capped our towers to oblivion. I was in the process of sorting out where we should put replacements and have deliberately stopped thinking about it until this was public so I wouldn't gain advantage. Funny thing is even before this was the case I was thinking about a cobalt moon because it is a big part of Gallente T2. Last time I looked though we found a lot of unoccupied cobalt moons but cadmium was elusive. I guess we can expect another rush to ignored moons now!

So anyways, I didn't see any signs of insider information advantage from this and lets face it, having a tech moon is still better than alchemy. Until we get ring mining I think we still have a moon mining problem.
