e.g.
Core X-Type MWD
Pithum A Adaptive Invul
Shadow Serpentis Tracking Computers

etc etc

Just wanted to try out some bling fits and can't find anything in Jita...

This will never happen. I'm surprised though Haven't seen one of these threads in forever.

but yeah, CCP doesn't need them tested so they don't get seeded, simple as that.

Everything else is seeded (inducing faction ammo) for player convenience.

Also Jita literally gets bought out in the first 30min of every new mirror :)

Yeah I saw some of the other threads. Just wanted to re-ignite the discussion.

Shame really.

I understand if CCP want it to just be testing the server itself, but surely having a few more people hopping on and testing some Deadspace fits? Can't be that detrimental surely.

Can understand Jita being cleared out... I'd go elsewhere if it was possible to get the stuff tbh Big smile

Something to do with if they seeded it then everyone would be flying around with full officer / deadspace / faction fitted stuff and it wouldn't be a fair representation.

There are a lot of arguments both for and against them however its unlikely they'll actually start to re-seed them unless they need to (i.e they make changes to how they work etc)

even when they change them they don't seed, look at faction omnis / sebo recent change, or the armor repairer a few updates ago, they never were seeded

yup, this is eactly why we endup on TQ with broken faction omnis right know, because CCP just copy pasted, and noone was able to test it.....


i understand why CCP doesn't seed them, but when they change their attributes, they should at least seed them for the short period required before the update go live.

now we will have to wait probably years before they fix them, if they ever get fixed Evil

Last mirror I was able to pick up plenty of faction and deadspace modules by visiting the far corners of the galaxy.

You know, places that aren't trade hubs and don't see much traffic.

Yeah I've found the odd thing here or there... nothing big though... just a rather time consuming way of doing it really.

Well if CCP not seeding faction/dead/officer why the hell did they seed faction towers?
I havent been reading up patch notes, is there something i missed. Or they just get seeded cuz?

Seeding of faction towers was probably my mistake, when I updated the seeding script. I might remove them again for the next iteration / mirror, but it is no high priority (I personally don't care if faction towers are seeded or not).

Can you personally not care if faction mods are seeded too?

No , server becomes a total mess and whats the point of testing out "bling fits" when everyone else is "bling fit" as well. Last time all mods were seeded server devovled into a lesser primate .It would be nice if storyline modules could be seeded since they are easy on cpu and pg for fitting purposes.

I remember the last time they seeded deadspace AND supers AND some officers! Great fun...Sort of...
Every fight in 6-c became x-type titans VS x-type titans, killed 1 titan and 3 came in its place. It got quite boring after 8 titans...
Every fight in PVH(sub-cap system) became x-type fit ships, wasn't too bad but T2 was rarely seen anymore. It delivered some fun fights(full deadspace freki ftw) but proper "testing" went straight out of the window.

I would love to see it again, but having experienced it myself...I can't say it was that awesome for CCP to test changes.

so could you then, seed them but ONLY when the update is altering them (and maybe only the affected mods)?

i understand it might be some work, but this would at least prevent some broken mods to end up on TQ, like factions omnis current status, wich is STILL NOT FIXED, and will probably remains broken for months if not years.....

Because we need capitals, vindicators, and bhaalgorns crapping up all of the CAs with faction and deadspace gear.
