"The old Neocom has been replaced by a younger, prettier model"
You jelly old neocom?

And even tho I never cared about FW I really wonder how the community is gonna react to:
"...but we’re working on Factional Warfare. In other news, a flying pig just passed my window."

Thank you! Was looking for this, and was assured yesterday there would be a dev blog or 2 coming out about it, and hey presto! Another great update guys (and girls) well done.

Edit: When are you going to be releasing specific changes? Like, what exactly has been changed on the AFs?

when i click on comments it just goes back to the blog and not the comments

I think you're taking the "Die in a FIre" thing a bit too personally.


Other than that, awesome.


On faction warfare changes, can we have a discussion on how to not adversely affect "independent" and non-faction oriented organizations in low sec?

There needs to be some method of allowing not militia groups to also have opportunities in and perhaps THROUGH the militia without being part of it.

Faction Citizens is what I'm thinking.


Where you can pledge allegiance to a faction, and become similar to shooting a friendly militia member, but don't get the perks of being able to shoot people on gates or shoot back. Offering partial protection/coordination with a militia but not being a full blown target.


Ultimately though... Faction Warfare needs to be for NEW PLAYERS and focus on giving them the experiences and opportunities for them to learn PVP. I have seen my share of first day militia guys in rifters end up 20 jumps from "home" and being locked up and scrammed by me on their militia mission. I'm pretty forgiving and usually try and get them away from the Militia by recruiting them or point them in another direction - because I know the Militia is only going to get them frustrated in EVE with the "Spy Paranoia" totally blocking any and all brand new militia members from most established corporations and the inability to find a fight that doesn't involve a Rifter vs a Flavor Of The Month Faction Frigate.


There should be somethings to cater to Veteran Faction Warfare pilots - but you really need to build up the New PVP Player avenue. (Hint: Shooting NPCs doesn't count).

At first I was like "WTF!? Team BFF is gone? RAAAAAAGE!", but then I read the good news and all was better. Great stuff!

That was pretty much my reaction back in December when we did the team shuffle. RIP BFF, Hello Five 0.

I nervously wait for this patch, I suspect that I will thoroughly enjoy Crucible 1.1

More cool things. Good Job CCP!!

I'd also like to congratulate CCP Soundwave on the amusement and Quality that his blogs provide (as well as being very informative) XD

Posting in a thread about a devblog full of win

HOLY TITDICK, YES!!!

When are we going to see the details of said changes?

*In between posting this and posting the edit, I learned to read. Changes are coming out with patch notes which are coming out soon.
