What's this I hear of a new mod?

Can not find a single thing about it.

They have previously said that it would allow you to jump forward 100km. Don't know what design changes they've made since then.

thanks,

Warp 100km - kinda like someone going to 155km out and warping to them @ 50km....

I would have preferred an all in one mod that disrupts warp scramble / disruption and warps you out within 3 seconds to avoid the lame blob tactics.

thats just me.

or is that the tech 2 version ;)

I honestly don't understand the need for this module myself...but...I won't complain about it. Maybe I will actually use it someday.

Bounties for all! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=2279821#post2279821

Modular Work

New modules are much less of a focus this time around for team Super Friends, but there are a few things here we’re doing:


  • Adjust the ASB to be more reasonable. The ASB is a little on the strong side right now. We want to adjust that while maintaining the overall functionality of the module.
  • Micro Jump Drive. The classic ‘blink’ ability, allowing ships to maneuver around the battlefield in a new way (with some hefty limitations of course) . We’ll try to get this out on a test server as soon as we can. It’s still some weeks away, but stay tuned.
  • Salvage Drone. As the name implies, this is a drone. That salvages. Need I say more? Ok, a bit. This is a small drone. It’s a bit worse at salvaging than the modules, but has the advantage of course of having longer range while saving precious slot. Again, we’ll get this out on a test server as soon as it is ready.



In other words, wait, patience, drool or cry. But wait.

Hey from what I remember from talk a few months ago, it was being developed as a BS-only module, it had a spool-up timer, you couldn't use it while disrupted, it jumped directly forwards 100km and there was talk of a new type of bubble the MJD wouldn't be able to jump into. It's likely to be very different now, of course.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

The last time it was in development, this was exactly what it was like. Except rather than jumping directly, it did a miniature warp. When we have finished putting some kind of base numbers on the new version, it will be available on the test server for some feedback. Keep your eyes on the Test Server Feedback forum post 19th October.

The reason you decided to not finish MJD before was because it caused everyone to jump around randomly on the test server wasn't it? :D
