De'Veldrin, thanks to your sig I learned today what 'corollary' means.

Now, basic set for unruly mob member (1 pitchfork + 1 torch), please.

That will be 1 hundred billion ISK. Station trades only, I'm too short on ISK to make a contract. Blink

Also, thank to your post, I realized I'd been spelling corollary wrong in my signature. /faceplam

6 weeks after the Crius release is too soon to get this amount of work done. However it will be before the end of the year.

I'm very... very... happy about more accessories. also this mysterious new mission. I'm wondering what's gotten into you, and whether you left something for next time (!)

Dear CCP,

Since Gallentians are getting their see-through garbs back, may I get back some of my metallic facial features from my earlier picture?

Thanks.

New L4 look interesting, I just hope it won't boil down to 'dps speed tank him to death' - go make a sandwitch, all done when you come back. EWAR could complicate things but then it's not such a problem to fit ECCMs. Pitchforks aside, I would love to see that dev blog more than 3 days before Hyperion rolls out...

Also, no new ship models? Well **** this **** and excuse my caldari Big smileBig smileBig smile

Which year?

I believe in being Pro-Active as Opposed to Reactive. Reactive tends to be more costly in time and money.

If that turns out to be possible, in all honesty I'll start making ganking fits to "drop by" when someone actually thinks he can go and make a sandwich while doing his L4 AFK.

A cursory search through Youtube for 'Robin Hood Men in Tights Dance' would pretty much sum up CCP reasoning.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Even though there's not much detail yet, the lvl4 change is the most promising to me. Any signs of life for the stale mission system is a good thing IMHO. The existing missions are ~10 years old, give or take ... most of us don't drive cars that old ... yet they're one of the most visible systems in the game to noobs and vets alike.

Small nimble ships with semi-disposable fits (instead of the blingy bling bling that many guys run for lvl4's) might make PVE fun again.

Anyway, a guy can hope.

I think this is an excellent idea, and we'll probably also discuss the plan and concepts for module tiericide on the Alliance Tournament stream over the next four weekends.

Could you record/publish those discussions for all of us who work weekends or live in alternate time zones (or both) and are therefore unable to follow those streams live?

Initially I was really excited about the new level 4 missions, as a more PVP-like way to make ISK would be nice. However, after thinking about it a bit, I have no real hopes for it being done well. I don't see how they plan to balance missions doable in frigates; either the rewards will be terrible, or you're basically getting an ISK printing machine that can be done in a ship that's worth under 10 mil. Neither option sounds like a good thing. I guess they could design them to require a blinged frigate, but that would suck too because they're just be alpha thrasher magnets. Bleh, guess I'll wait for the dev blog, but I'm not really feeling optimistic at this point.
