From the little bit a certain teasing CSM gave out, supercaps are still going to be good ships, but are also going to be much more vulnerables.

I really want it to be an immunity to be remote (cap, armor and shield). That would force them to fit more cap mods and active tanking mods, and reduce drastically their EHP. Not that they still wouldn't have multiple millions of EHP, but they wouldn't reach obcenes 50M+ amounts of it anymore. And suiciding a subcap fleet to take out one of them among a supercap blob might be a working proposition.

With the words from the CEO I hope you plan to listen to what the vast majority of people in nullsec want which is not what a small group of people wanting free ganks want.

One thing that has to be a priority in Winter 2011 gameplay wise is removing the immunity AFK Cloakers have to cause chaos in nullsec without actively being at a computer or taking any risk at all. The fact that many afk cloakers suggest removing local as a solution shows they are not serious about offering a solution to this serious issue and ought to be discarded as such. Realistic alternatives have been proposed and I hope you will read back through and consider them for Winter 2011.

Let me make it clear again tho. People suggesting removing local or changing it from anything from being able to glance and see a hostile in system want free ganks and that is it in my opinion. I have talked with more than a few people that will not only leave lowsec but leave the game in the event that the only chance to respond to a threat in local is once he has you locked down. You understand now that people will unsub this game and leave so I hope you will take proposals for fixing nullsec in the future seriously and not try to push things that will cause chaos and ghosttowns of nullsec to please solo pvpers. PVP ought to be in groups in EVE and things like TIme dilation will cause Group battles to be better instead of the lagfests they were in the past.

Edit: Any suggestions on changing local to "delayed mode" are also just those wanting free ganks in my opinion and ought to be discounted as the resulting chaos will result in many leaving the game and many leaving upon "discovering it" in nullsec.

No it will just cause many people (Including me and most of my corp) To give up. Stop living in a fantasy land where miners target paint themselves just for your lovely ammo to hit them. The risk in 00 is enough already and if you want to go have some excitement then go join a PVP group and oust the enemy from their systems. Now with time dilation the excuse of not going on large scare PVP due to lag will evaporate. There is no excuse to cause many to leave to please a few solo pvpers looking for free ganks.

WH space is the way it is for a reason. It is a CHOICE to go there. Making 00 like WH space will just cause the same thing as WH space. Small corps/alliances being ousted by big giant ones that are able to charge insane rents to people in select systems with caps while the rest of nullsec becomes a wasteland of crap that only pirates inhabit.

IE we quit. And even worse it will reinforce the idea that CCP is making doing things less valuable to drive up the will to use PLEX. There are already enough reasons to suspect this. There is no need for another.

Ya it will fix the AFK cloak issue alright. Because nobody will want to AFK cloak an empty 0.2 nullsec system for weeks.

Anything but a direct replacement for local or leaving it alone will ruin small corps and alliances. So this needs to be noted.

Well there are some other modules like the drone improvement modules (Omidirectional Tracking Link, Navigational Computer) that don't have T2 counterparts yet. Though there are some Faction variations since one or two expansions ago (only available via Fleet Warfare LP store).
I do hope those modules are included in the new T2 module part of the promise!

Also if it is T2 XL guns, I hope they don't introduce any limits to ship types like you propose, as no other primary weapon system has it's T2 variation limited to specific ship types. If alone for this reason I doubt they'll limit XL guns that way (if they truly come)...

*dusts off Megathron*

MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!

... so no view for the Missile launchers? damn, all other guns got a 3d view and can be looked at on the ship, no love for caldari ? xD

Changing missile launchers is a pretty large undertaking since it requires redesigns of every ship that has a launcher slot, and a complete reworking of the missile graphics on top of coming up with designs for a whole slew of modules that have previously not had any kind of 3D representation.

Things must be really desperate if Zulu played the 'fix hubrids' card....

Yes I do reaise they can just say it proved too hard for this expansion and blah blah blah but still.... putting the intention on paper... scawwwwyyyy...

I bet they had to drop Nescafe Gold Blend for regular or some such deprivation at CCP HQ.

Why omg!! WHY no improvements in GRAPHICS!! (read special effects) More color on E-War, missiles, explosions, etc etc.

I sure do hope all this is serious.

If not, I'm going to be really dissapointed. Yay for faction warfare changes! YAY for hybrid fix!

This may be a grand moment for eve.
