THE LITTLE THINGS
Continued development towards raising accessibility without removing functionality will bring dozens of changes to player-owned starbases, game UI and beyond


Here's to POS update iteration part 1? Yes please?!?!

I'll take that bet.

Either I make 10m isk

Someone on TMC.com's post about this linked a bunch of pics from PAX-E, some of which are nothing new, but this one caught my eye right away... Cool Pic ...I'm guessing/hoping we're looking at a glimpse of the new Discover Scanner.

Looks shiny. Pirate

Another interesting/controversial pic... Here

That one with pics of tags, incursions, ice mining and moon minerals is confusing. How do those things even fit together?

Hell knows... that's why I said it was interesting/controversial... It's a psychological jump, but perhaps we're supposed to Ice mine for moon minerals, inside Gurista Incursion sites... Who knows??? It'd certainly balance risk/reward, I'd imagine.

One has a inspace gametag. It showed up in one of CCP's older videos ( aesthetics mostly).

Looking at the main picture, 2 scanning ships and a stealth bomber, with what looks like a wormhole at the end.. yea has something to do with wormhole space, really exploration as a whole.

We all already know that the pirate factions will turn into more of a playable role, possibly turning some of the pirate area's into a type of highsec, allowing people to have a 10 jump area they can function in, while being surrounded by low and null (already exists with the highsec islands).

I am just happy they will at least address some of the MASSIVELY glaring issues with POS's, the interface and the broken roles.

My guess is moon resources will become dynamic. Drying up on one moon while new veins will spawn (be discovered) on moons elsewhere. Thus further pursuing a fundamental truth to Eve they realized when they removed static farmable assets everywhere else. (edit: that could just be my bias showing as I've been asking why moons were left static for years)

And for all that scanning? A new streamlines scan system. Of course this will also come into play for lots of other new-to-be-discovered sites spawning all over.

The tags and such are likely part of the faction LP stores that will open for pirates and other groups (save them Serp tags for some nice tracking comps!)

"Ring belts' have long been rumored so that may be coming too.

"Ice asteroids will now drop pirate tags when defeated which can be traded for Promethium at CONCORD stations throughout highsec. To balance this all ice belts will be patrolled by Sansha motherships"

it all fits

A nice realistic theory.

Sounds like it'll be a great expansion.

I'd love to see more things in space (I know it sounds funny).

More than just stargates, the sun, stations, and belts.

More things.

Well right there it says new ships! That is great! Oh and was that a ship sitting docked that can look out into space before undocking!!! Very cool! Or maybe not, but at least it looks like stations are getting V3.

lol, nice one.

On the other hand... perhaps we're finally getting Tags-for-Sec-Status...?

I'm still quite confused why the scanning mechanism needs to be changed, but I think there is either a T2 or Navy Myrmidon in one of those pics.

In the linked pics. The quality is bad, but that Myrm still looks greener than normal I think.

The thumbnail pics to the right of the main pics that he posted above. It just seems like in the distance if you zoom in you can see a Domi, Megathron, and another myrm.
