CCP deserves much more credit for this amazing expansion

I'm happy with this expansion bar 2 things; the font and the fact that the Gallente buff wasn't enough. I do hope that CCP gets fearless enough to actually tackle the real problems in the game; Projectiles, lasers, bridging. All those those need a good nerf.

Excellence is not a skill, it's an attitude.

Considering the amount of work that has been put into this expansion in the 6 week time frame that was given, I'm sure the teams gave it their all and are very tired now, only for them to see a lot of negative feedback only on a few points, I really hope they haven't overshadowed the few who has given positive feedback


i like what they have done with the patch,but...

Lol 6 weeks ,can,t believe that .
They must have been working longer on this then 6 weeks
but rushed it into this big patch with a few new ships and background.

Credit granted for this patch but It's no real expansion IMHO.

Nice to see alot of tiny things moving. Still I await CCP addresses more of the daily pain in Eve. The list is so long.

I's love to see CCP becoming more agile: Deploying more small features in shorter cycles, like every month. Complete expansions can come every 6-9 months, don't mind. But it's more than annoying to wait for small changes(Anchor times for pos modules, yay!) for over half a year and more.

Odyssey: Repacking in POS hangars for modules +1,  but please for other stuff too, especially containers. Make containers openable in POS hangars.

I'm worried the next expansion will be more of the same.

Useless cosmetic changes (that often hurt more than help), more buffs to mega-RMT-alliances, more nerfs to small groups. I miss the days of running a medium sized alliance and actually believing there was a point to it all, that there was some achievable goal worth pursuing.

In fact, I'd like to know summer plans sooner rather than later, for the sake of decision making.


Forgive me if I misread your post, but seems your one complaint has to do with the social organization, and while the game can provide some mechanics to manage this, it's largely up to the sandbox how these alliances/coalitions evolve and largely out of the hands of CCP. It's been said and argued before, I know for a fact, but the terms of how our own social organizations evolve are pretty much in our hands and to some extent a reflection of the people that play this excellent game..

I think the lack of posts is just evidence it was a great patch

But yeah, the whole game feels new. the cyno effects make you feel like a boss. The warp tunnel (especily going through planets) is awesome. The new logout rules have been needed for ages. Just all-round awesome improvement. The new tier3's are going to be a ton of fun too. And the new texture update.... the CQ screen reflections... outside all the textures look so crisp.... so awesome =D

One suggestion: let me drag/drop the Destination UI into chat (so i can link it like i can the current system) =D

No, they deserve credit for turning the ship back in the right direction.

Now let's watch what they do and not listen to what they say with the next one....

You'll enjoy reading this http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&nbid=3211, best part for the future of eve

I have been critical of CCP in the past, so yes it is only fairly to let them know when I like what they are doing. And I like this release.

Please keep up the good work.

I do like the new expansion overall and if they did this in 6 weeks I hope that with 6 months before the next one they will finally top Apocrypha which has been the best expansion for me so far.

EVE has lots of potential for new things not just improvement and I hope to see lots of both next year.

Well done CCP but don't drop the ball.

I chimed in on the font thread because I have problems with the new font (for some sections it is actually better, but for other parts it is really bad) so I will chime in on this thread too because I absolutely agree, even though there are a few bugs and the new font has problems overall the new patch is great.
