Lots of new and rebalanced ships.

Love the tags for sec status. Its nice improvement for low sec to boot.

I really can't believe the complaints about moving the undock button. Roll Seriously how did you people make it past the eve learning cliff? It's not impossible to undock.

Make faction war occupancy pvp instead of pve https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=53815&#post53815

Ship spinning not removed?

Odyssey: Repacking in POS hangars for modules +1,  but please for other stuff too, especially containers. Make containers openable in POS hangars.

i wasn't excited about anything other than the new jump animation and the navy harbinger, the rest didn't really affect me or i couldn't care about it.

i love the new jump animation and hate the navy hardinger so for me its a boring patch but not a bad one

4. Good.

Alot of tweaking and polishing, but also some new content. Low Sec is a little happier, ships have been rebalanced and the Deaf, Dumb and Stupid can find anoms by tripping over them.

Navy/Fleet BC's are awesome. Cool

Specifically, however, the resource balancing was long overdue but appears to be well underway -- with the bonus of some juicy tears. Always a plus.

Because I'm never happy or satisfied, when the job is done there's always something that could have been done better.

1-warp effect: shiny, superb if you jump occasionally, when you have to do 20/30 jumps and are not lucky enough to get killed it's again 20/30 back and this animation with camera rotation on top is quite annoying.
Is it a well done effect?-of course, it looks really awesome but not when you have to do it repeatedly.

2-exploration: clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky clicky

-> and when it's done all you have to do is:

click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click click clickclick click click click click click click click click click click click click click clickclick click click click click click

Lol

3-Navy BC's are basically good, price however needs a huge nerf stick. Market reasons and mineral prices are diving those to the state of hangar queens and rage threads about to come when some will get blown up like any other pixels shite around.

4-Megathron capacitor/role: way too much nerf/not in line with what it should bring to be a better ship, just a big Talos for giggles

Its almost pointless to scan anything in highsec what you find in the new hack and scan sites is pathetic my avg per site is like 20k isk per site not per thing in site. So far i have ran 6 of them and havnt a single usable thing out of them and yes i have been going for the right mini cons.

It's a pretty thin update relative to Apocrypha. Other than that all good, useful, and interesting changes. I think this is a good patch. It's just a little thin...

I like it as I think the patch makes people who were playing eve online on easy mode adapt. People now have to work at hacking and adapt for DED 3/4's (no more T3's allowed). Why does everything have to be to make things easier for people or maintain the status quo.

The best part of the changes are that it makes exploration accessable for new players and older players who didn't understand it. The new transition sequences (undocking/jumping) will make the game look so much smoother to anyone who signs up now. Its much more seemless.

Getting new players into the game is essential if you want to maintain it as a massive multiplayer universe rather than a smaller one. Oh one negative: I do agree though it's not got too many major changes in it - definitely more a mini-expansion and redesign of some poor game systems.

I dislike the changes to scanning, but the other things are all good imo.

LOVE the new navy BC's!

Apocrypha was my all time favorite, but this is definitely my favorite patch since the hillmar apology. The rebalancing is spectacular (I say that as much because they're taking the time to polish pass already buffed things like T1 cruisers as balancing new ships) and the push into lowsec and nullsec the various exploration, mining, ice, industry, and resource redistribution represents while maintaining additions to high sec and solo game play just has it all for me.

Moving the undock button? Some poor U. I. choices in the scanner? Just minutia compared to the aforementioned improvements.

Maybe I'm the only fanboy but, compared to Incarna, this expansion seems incredibly positive

Edit: Just wanted to stick a 10 in there for Fozzie and Rise. Best stuff to come out of CCP in 4 expansions. I LOVE you guys and you are the top reason I play the game (since you do spaceships, and I'm all about spaceships)

Beyond that can't say much I joined in a day or 2 after the patch and it seemed to have went pretty smoothly compared to others.

So a 3, nothing excites me really but it went smoothly.

Id give it a 2 just for the bugs with the scanner but the patch was quite disappointing and should have been held back until the bugs were fixed. I say this because I have heard that the bugs were reported while the patch was live on the test server.

But at least the new Apoc model looks bad ass.

Mixed bag, New Exploration too easy. Make sure local is safe, hack away. decrpytor prices will crash soon.

Good
more ships, tiercide , easier for someone new to progress.
Ice reduction. helps push people out of high .

Mixed
Exploration is now too easy. its like being hand held. Data/Relics have a 100%drop rate now esp decryptors. bad thing is well with so much supply , prices will probably crash soon.
Probes don't decloak cloaked ships now - AFK Cloaker BUFF
all grav sites are now anoms , exploration nerf/buff depending on how you look at it.

Bad.

Eve Online goes My little Pony. Easy mode for the masses which are not about to come, crap animations, lol probing system.
I am disappointed.
