Does this mean my interceptor now has a 100% chance to tackle a mining ship in nullsec/lowsec before they can enter warp?
Don't need to probe to find their anomalies, and if what i'm hearing is correct, interceptor's will be nullified and enter warp super fast! I wonder if null-sec miner's are just going to give up or they'll come up with a way of countering this.

No they will just adapt and keep playing. Just because it got some nice changes won't make it the perfect tackler. It tank will be light as always. Nothing a few drones could kill off. If the gate is bubbled the tackles gets through but what about the rest.They said as well the fitting will be hard for people to slap on a cyno so no hot drops.

No. As soon as you appear on Local they are already warping away. Good luck though.

This announcement for the WINTER expansion that falls right in the middle of FALL was the biggest let down ever. FFS NOTHING WAS REVEALED BUT MORE SPECULATION.

I fear for EVE. I really do. EA guys are really ******* things up.

Maybe we didn't see the same stream. Loads of stuff was revealed, and I'm positively surprised on the evolution of EVE. Smile
