What ever happened to bookmarks in the overview? That was a "coming soon feature" that seemed to never appeared!

Disagree with ships leaving the SMA with shields fully recharged.

Will just result in shield tanking always been the way to go, set-up large buffer tank, instead of having to wait for it to recharge, warp to POS, put in SMA, take out SMA, job done. Shield recharged at ultra speed. Massive bonus for shield tankers over everyone else. Armour doesn't auto-regen in SMAs so why should shields?

You could also have a shield booster fitted if this really gets to you..... or have a logi friend rep you up. Many other options which won't make shield tanking the only way to go in WH.

PS. For the record I'm a dedicated shield tanker, so this change would benefit me, I still think its unfair on armour tankers however.

Excellent point, i wonder if there's a workaround possible, but probably not

You make a great point.

How about the shield ships leave the SMA at the same level the entered with? This would be equivalent. I'm not for eliminating shield recharge, just eliminating it while the ship is unpiloted.

Currently, I don't often bother with shield ships because of this major handi-cap, unless I have the possibility of fighting in a pulsar.

The mechanics are heavily in favor of armor ships and it wouldn't make sense to swing it heavily in favor of shields. But implementing a solution like I have proposed to your observation should make things a bit more balanced.



Regarding T3 subs and Lady PimpStar's statement that all wh corps make so much isk that they don't need this change because they can afford to have so many t3's that this isn't needed; if we really had this much isk, we wouldn't bother asking for it.

In this case our current CSM representation does not really represent the rest of us. People may have the mistaken impression that WH corps are so rich because of the most vocal or visible worm holers seem to give this impression and do make a ton of isk. But that's honestly a minority of the wh corps.

I believe I listened to a podcast that Two-step did and he said he didn't really care about reconfiguring subs at a POS because he could afford so many t3's it didn't matter. That's not us by any means and it disappoints me that he would in this case feel it's not important because it doesn't apply to him. So, if that is where you got that idea, you've been mislead.

So in a nutshell: not all of us are rolling in isk.

We repeatedly ask for these 3 main things, because it is important to us and would have a huge impact on gameplay and to alleviate game mechanic frustrations, as well as alleviate frustrations across all new eden space as many have pointed out.

They don't give wormholers an unfair advantage over anyone else. Everyone benefits from these changes and it would only make the game more enjoyable to play for the entire player-base.

As nice it would be to convert your DPS ship to a ewar ship to have a better strike on a enemy your gonna take by surpise anyway is just two much power to have inside wormspace. I vote no on this change..



Being able to swap out fittings - subsystems in this case - on a ship is too much power? Are you kidding me? Next you'll be telling me we should not be able to change out ANY fittings at a pos.

That's just plain silly, no offence. Find a better argument.

Besides, if your concerned about power, just look at all the capital ships and dreads built inside wormhole space... many to never leave.

Armor doesn't auto-regen ANYWHERE. Big smile Always rather irritated me that when I dock in my armor ship I have to pay to have my armor regenerated, but when I dock in my shield ships I can instantly undock back at full tank. (Of course, my armor ship can just sit outside a station and rep itself with local rep if fit).

I have fit a shield booster then refit to prefered mod before, in order to fast regen my shields. I've used logi mates/alts also. But both aren't always feasible... regardless, those are good and valid points. In my armor ships, I use local repper.

I like the idea posted above about having shields remain at the level they were stored at. That seems like a nice and fair compromise.

The BM fix as described would be fantastic.

Now if nobody starts whining about anything what am I going to do with this cheese?

I would gladly take that off your hands. If you want I can share some wine... I think I have a few old bottles around:

If you would like to try a newer one:
"Why does station spinning move my overview around?"

Or if you prefer the older vintages:
"Why do people come try and blow me up when I'm minding my own business trying to make a living? CCP fix it!"

My personal favorite, aged three years in a dark celler:
"ABC ore should be nullsec only, and wormholes are not nullsec!"

These issues have indeed been raised by CSM in the past; I'll see if I can get you more information on their status.

any news? Smile

That is why I said I was optimistic that at least one of your issues would be fixed :)

Now back to work on getting the others in...

It seems right now only directors can remove bookmarks? This probably need to be bound to a different role.

It is obviously an early development version and will be changed. All we need to do is provide the right feedback!
(look at the PI change thread, CCP actualy listens to the suggestions)

+1.

I would hope this can be tied to some kind of new "navigator" role, because in w-space the ability to update BMs is something almost everyone needs to be able to do. The lay of the land changes so quickly that waiting for a director to become available would make this largely useless.

At the same time, I know the pain our directors suffer with the corp interface, and I would really rather this not get rolled (pun not intended) into something like accountant or whatever, because the ability to alter bookmarks is important but you don't want to give everyone the keys to the lambo...

First thing I thought of...

"Bring it out to WH space... We'll take it off your hands..."


"Involuntarily, of course..."


CCP: am I going to have to revise my *bitter*? I cannot say how *AWESOME* this change will be, nor how well received. I'm at work and posting from a friends computer, can't get on Sisi until tonight...

Thank You CCP.

That's all you need to know.
