I'd say new systems, so EVE can grow indefinitely.

I was wondering why CCP Facebook was blowing up with comments. The demo showed gate construction? What else?

Hmm, new probe system, looks like it has been dumbed down to me.

Gate construction was just shown as a possible thing for the future. It won't be part of Odyssey.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

Jove space sounds more liklely, since they've said that they're going to open up that part of space.

They didn't show anything it was just something for the future.

The ability to start you 7 probes at once and store probe patterns isn't dumbing it down. It is just getting rid of annoying UI-restrictions/"gamplay".

Looks like some great changes to me. Formation and multiple probe deployment, better scanning result display.

All things that weren't cleverer, just repetetive in the current system.

Plus, the revamp centers more on the system scanner, showing these new sigs and sites. Changes to archeology and hacking sites are much better IMO - greater benefits for group expeditions (more ejected loot collected... *tangent* how soon till this beocmes known as ejaculoot?) (I'm coining it right now)

Way better than click drag click drag click drag click drag click drag click drag click drag click drag warp approach (maybe shooty shooty) target turn on salvager.... zzzzz

*edit*

forgot to say, it seems to me that system scanning still works like now - you can detect certain anomolies, but you'll still need to use probes and scanning for the juicier anomolies and sites

What if your sole reason for being is simply to serve as a warning to others?

My question is assuming stargates are going to make titans look like a cheap frig in terms of cost why would any alliance want to foot the bill so everyone else can use it?

Of course if you build the gate you also are the sole key keeper.

It was some magazine interview IIRC.

Also, the interesting part isn't stargate construction — it's what's required to make it a valuable addition: stargate destruction. If all you can do is build new ones, it'll be a one-time thing… Twisted

CCP Seagull said that the gate building would be in the winter expansion as part of the space colonization expansion. It will be very interesting how that will work out.

I really love the new stargate and station animations. I find it really adds a lot to the immersion of the game.

Arcosian; my guess is that if you build it, you can control who passes through-- though I assume there's also a possibility to hack 'em? Or depending on expense (it could be relatively cheaper to build, but need constant fueling), break blockades by building smuggler gates...?
