Just came back to EVE after a 1 year hiatus, and wanted to let CCP know how much I appreciate the new features.

Safe logoff, nebula paths / constellations, safety firing mode, and more, all this stuff is awesome!

I also appreciate that you haven't altered the nature of the game too much, and have presereved the hostile nature of EVE while giving it's interface and gameplay elements some much needed love.

Can't wait to (hopefully) see a UI redesign soon, along with some actual WIS gameplay. Keep it up Cool

As I was on a year long break, some differences were more noticeable to me. I especially like everything they added and redid with the UI. The navigation, mission handling and inventory management has greatly improved.

EVE is going somewhere. Which is always better than stagnation.

Maybe mining next? Or the science and industry interface? Please?

Then you can spend the next five years re-doing sovereignty properly, making low-sec a real place and balance the whole lot with high-sec and w-space.

I'm really looking forward to what happens with the industry and corp UI's, once these are updates, I recon POS's and other corp/alliance managed things wouldn't be far behind.

The "safety" options seems out of place to me, but eh not a biggy.

Still waiting on POSs or AT LEAST a logout to character screen option.

Also the auto pilot route showing in space is neat.

My latest discovery, though I have not been away nor do I know how old it is, is the Copy Contract feature. If you ever had to create tens and more identical contracts then you will know how tedious it is to enter the same values over and over again. With Copy Contract does one create a first contract and then uses it as the template for the next ones. Very sweet.

Where to find the option.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

Are you for real?!?

I gave up selling pre-fitted ships to my alliance, because I hated to set up all those contracts again and again.
I feel kinda stupid now...

The biggest change for me in the last year has been definately the FW changes plus the new stargates in the minmatar-amarr FW area. From one day to another our little quiet lowsec pocket became part of the FW front, with all the added traffic, targets, problems but profits, too.

Between the FW changes, the Tiericide that made frigates and cruisers good, and a lot of little combat UI improvements, I'm finding the pvp way way easier to get into. Its still daunting, but not quite the learning cliff it was before.

I thank CCP for the Ferox buff, the Thorax revamp, and the fixing of PG issues on Medium lasers.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?
