Ok today i woke up to Phoebe version of eve where it seems that once again. CCP has decided to screw with the sandbox
and Nerf the jumprange of carriers, dreads and rorquals to 2.5 Light years.
as i only use carriers and the rorqual for transport this is a devastateing blow to me personaly.

I am sick and tired and fed up with CCP contantly changeing the game when things dont suit them,
this has cost me billions in time, work and effort to build these ships which are now useless from what
their role has been.

Ok so now we can jump through gates to travel. Now that for a capital would be suicide to try and run through gate
camps without massive fleet support.. I dont what kind of drugs ccp is on but clearly its not helping with your thought processs.

I have 12 accounts in this game and pay thousands a year to play.
this is the last straw. after all the changes and things that ccp has taken away from me over the years
ive reached the final point.
I will be letting my subscriptions on all accounts lapse, and just go and find something better to do than waste
more time, effort and money on game that is clearly no longer a open sandbox.

I am not the only one that will be quitting either. i know several freinds in the same position that already said they where
finishing up before the patch for the same reasons.

I may be a bitter Vet. but god dam it i have good reason to be.

Afaik, from reading the patch notes, max range should be 5 LY (after skills taken into account)

Hm, 12 accounts...I have 11, of which 10 are active atm Cool

I suggest you sell your rorqs and carriers like anyone of any intelligence would and get a bunch of jump freighters.

Or, delete your account. If you don't want to adapt, you don't want to play Eve anyways.

There were multiple threads on these changes for quite a bit now on the information portal.

The ORIGINAL nerf plan was much worse, but CCP revised it to what went live today after 400 pages of player feedback. You can get your max jump distance to 5LY with JDC 5.

Also be sure to watch your jump fatigue. ;)

I feel your pain, I also hate my ships being exposed to danger when jumping through gates.

I have a strong emotional bond to my Dominix.

Thank you for your participation in this fine game. I'm sure I speak for everyone here when I say it'll be less fun without you and your friends.

Now, if you and your friends could please convert all assets into PLEX and contract to me, I'll be in my hangar waiting.

But the great masses pleaded to CCP. Oh great devs hear our cries. Power projection needs to be brought under control. So with a mighty swing the nerf hammer was swung smiting all pilots that used capital ships or jump bridges.

You'd think that between yourself and all your fiends (who will be quitting in solidarity) and your corp and alliance mates that one of you could have frakking been bothered to read some Dev blogs or one of the many threads or articles posted all over the Meatverse about this.

You didn't want to fly capitals anyway.

I shall also take your stuff.

As said... there was dev blogs and post and tweets and player blogs and podcast and news radio talks and forum post and facebok post and.. you get the drift.

Your failure to read stuff is not an emergency on my or ccp's part. You should know better. Reported for redunant

This just in: latest release includes changes to game.

In an unprecedented move developer CCP, creators of EVE General Discussion, have released an update for their spinoff game EVE Online which updates the game. The release, part of CCP's new six-weekly release cycle, took the gaming world by surprise by being released six weeks after the preceding release. We asked CCP for an interview regarding the new release cycle, and were obliged by CCP TheRideNeverEnds who had the following to say: "We made the decision to switch to six weekly game updates that update the game every six weeks after observing that, even after a decade, six monthly expansions that expanded the game every six months still caused bewilderment and terror among the playerbase. Our hope was that on a six weekly cycle, players would not get used to long periods of non-updates that don't update anything, and so be less surprised by updates which update things. We are also continuing our Dev Outreach Programme, whereby developers go to the players house in person to direct the player's web browser to the dev blogs. However, limited staff numbers means we cannot visit every player, and physically pointing the players' eyes at the screen while the dev blog is on it is tricky work, so some players remain uninformed as to upcoming changes."

We'll update you on this story as it unfolds - be warned that the update may contain updates.
