to all the guys BITCHING about this guy bringing up a perfectly valid complaint...care to explain to me HOW it daily opportunities would change if it was switched from a 22-hour cooldown to a reset at daily reset once per day deal.

the fact is, functionally...there would be little change


If it would be little change, then why even bother?

because quality of life changes don't have to be big to improve something.

What did carebears ever do to deserve 20% more SP than wormhole dwellers, is the question.

Highsec is owned by players now. Systems 0.5-1.0 are New Order Territory. All miners and other residents of Highsec must obey The Code. Mining without a permit is dangerous and harmful to the EVE community. See www.MinerBumping.com

I for one am pleased that CCP has brought this to the game. However I do agree that the current mechanic should be changed to a simple "reset after downtime" thing. Smile

They completed the opportunity objectives while the wormhole dweller didn't.

I agree with this exactly. This is Eve. We don't need dailies. Dailies are for WoW and games like that. Eve is a sandbox. A virtual life. The worst part is, I get the sense more are coming Cry

That being said, if we must have this, once per downtime would seem to make much more sense than every 22 hours.

Also, WH dwellers, I noticed that you get the SP bonus for killing sleepers or guns protecting sites.

Just to point out, CCP got rid of the whole alarm clocking training for a reason, this log in for your SP boost every day is a return to the bad old days of gotta log in to get mah SP.

Having spent a fair bit of time in Austria and drowning in Germany I do feel somewhat disadvantaged although at this point losing several weeks of this bonus matters little to me given that amount of SP I have. I can see it sucking for low SP people though who would feel punished.

You know i was flying around in a PVP fit force reacon looking to see if anyone put up any citadels yet and didn't shoot a damn thing. I need to remember to fly through a belt and one volly a rat when passing through a system once a day.

So i was logged in and didnt evem bother lol. Im just skilling stuff for something to do though so it doesn't matter much to me, but ive dealt with timers for years that force me to let things sit idle longer then I want just because it finishes when im at work or whatever. Nothing new. Try running a decent sized T2 production line all tje way to market alone some time and this will seem like nothing to you.
