EVE General Discussion

take a broken mechanic, fix the broken part, break the not broken part, there you have CCP

Nothing important has changed really, except for the better. For those miners who pay attention to the various intel tools available for you, ranging from local if in kspace to the new overlay which automagically shows you any and all newly spawning signatures (aka the wormholes where the boogeymen come) as well as old tools such as dscan, probe picketing and audio picketing at holes, mining has never been easier nor safer. For those who refuse to pay any attention whatsoever, they deserve to get ganked.

Adapt or die.

Set up a bubble in front of the entrance maybe? I don't know for sure but wouldn't it be kinda suicide if you were to gank miners and fly blindly and warp to zero on a ore site.

Ofcourse there are cyno droppers, but they would stil come no matter what. Not to mention they hide in cloak all day in your system.

If alliances were smart they would make counter traps. But people are to arsed busy these days. Roams outside their own system is more important.

I totally agree Sov payments, ihub upgrades and now there a free for all. Seems to me that CCP are not getting enough money through there doors. In my honest opinion there killing the game and don`t even realize it.

Gravimetric site`s are generated by the hard work of miners battling it out for countless hours on hard asteroids to obtain such sites. And CCP have just made them an insta warp in for all. Well i have toons and i have been playing for 6 years i originally projected to play for ten. But if CCP feel that this is the way they will generate money through the doors. I think they need to re-think.

I guess that CCP will not be getting my £1200 a year to play there game any more. And if i`m not the only one that thinks this way then i`m sure they will drum up some other ways to try to exploit money from the unwitting.

Enough is enough unless they give the Gravimetric sites back to the sov owners you won`t see me back at the end of this month.

Seriously dissapointed in this change, I might ad there are some nice features. But this is only going to draw in short term interest in the game. The game was built on longevity and the bean counters @ CCP and the Dev`s as far as i see it only watch the $$

If you think this is wrong Bump me don`t troll.

Remember it`s your game people without you they don`t have a product to sell.

I don't mine. At all. Period. It bores the living **** out of me. I am the type to shoot miners. But I too believe this is a terrible change and will only serve to lower the amount of miners in low/nullsec even more.

I love it. Grav sites were an underutilized waste of space that were merely in the way of explorers.

I understand why miners don't like it but, meh - peasant concerns.

CCP sadly just doesn't listen. This is fact.

CCP decided to roll out the new forums a few years ago. Anyone here remember that? They asked us to beta-test it for a few months and send in our feedback, tons of people sent in tons of suggestions for improvement, but also warnings about security holes in the code. Yet the new forums were released virtually unchanged. It wasn't until a user exploited those security holes and demonstrated that he could do whatever he wanted with them (and humiliated CCP in the process) that the new forums were taken down and revamped for many months.

There are many other examples like this, where new stuff is put up on SiSi and CCP asks us to go have a look and give our feedback, only to promptly ignore all of it and roll out the new stuff unchanged. This will happen again. At least CCP Rise has been doing great work with his army of stickies down in the Features & Discussions thread, where it seems that player feedback is appreciated and noted.

In this particular case, it is possible that CCP has ulterior motives, but they sure aren't sharing that with us.

I would like to keep my +1 in this thread, because I also do not like new status of Ore sites.
I think what null miners with infrastructure hub must have a choice, by new hub upgrade module or something like this, to hide back their ore sites from neutral eyes.
I also think what previously it was possible, for extreme (or role play) miners to dig stones in low sec gravimetrics, but now low sec ore sites also visible and....

Every expansion for last two years was meet very warm by meet, but Odessey is first which I do not understand. Like one man said: hidden signatures was hidden, now nothing hidden left. Sad, CCP.

its even saver now in null sec to mine in the normal ore belts then in the grav sites
