We know you scan with combats, we saw you a couple of daya ago.

Bob Artis, you will be missed.

Given how slow your tengus' scan anything smaller than a dreadnought in a site, I don't see the issue. Yes, you can scan anything with combats. Is it smart? No.

Both combat and core probes have the same strength, it only appears to be different because they have different "base scan ranges". You might want to check that out ...

EDIT: well, except you're using RSS probes ...

I haven't shout, or insulted Fozzie as its counter productive in the long run. I have said no one in w space will scan uncloaked and that if it happens no one in w space will use them.

Ooh its not my idea.

Next in CCP's basket of bad ideas and ****** surprises:

  • cloaks that work only while uncloaked
  • probes that only find stargates
  • a prop mod that prevents you from getting doubletapped
  • micro-micro jump drives (100km drone teleport for Ishtars)
  • security status hits for buying something for 50% below market average to balance out market PVP
  • Actually policing racist comments in public channels!
  • Special pink colourtags on characters owned by IRL womens, so you can all be sexist douches on purpose!
  • Brown colourtags for furries, so you know who to primary
  • Komodo fighters, that do omni damage, fly faster than other fighters and have an optimal range of, i dunno, 75km and whose statistics are made to be balanced by an as-yet unreleased update. What could go wrong?
  • EANM's now an active module!
  • The Impel. Nuff said.
  • Armour plates auto turn off when you jump through a wormhole
  • Some kind of exploration battleship with a wonky-ass mass, carebear-aligned traits, which will cost a bomb and be as useful as ducks with landmines for feet. Owait.

I only await the next dev pos that will read "Hey we discovered your local chat appears to be broken, we are insisting it is fixed we will hear you out and then when enough farmers post we will change it."

I fully endorse this product.



On a more serious note.... Really CCP? Active scanning modules? Please don't.

yes, I too would like my armour subcaps to be even more better than shield ships.
this change would be great for armour caps but would break subcaps something awful.

There is no Bob.

Pretty sure he didn't mention active eanms getting a resist buff lol. Well I suppose they would then be called adaptive hardeners.So you would actually be losing out as the compensation skills would no longer affect them. Though you could overheat I suppose. *end troll*

Are the midslot scan modules more effective as an active module on the test server?

You know what they say about assumptions and common sense.

I don't see what the problem is with scanning modules being active, You can scan without them, and Scanners actually dying would be nice.

No, this change would only help people scanning inside their force for the static to close and the sites to run, and it says, with big red letters, **** you to the ones out there creating content.

I wonder how sisipee is going to **** us in the anus with the nrxt micro patch thingy they want to implement.

Bob Artis, you will be missed.

Can you confirm that the previous csm did support this like fozzie alludes to (by csm i mean the wh csm) considering in conversations with the previous wh csm's this never came up or was mentioned as a problem.

before you say ask them myself its simple, chitsa left ssc, james is a different tz, and both dont want to be bothered with this crap any more

also you are the new wh csm so deal with it :P (hugs really)

Do you guys really think I could have convinced ccp to add in this new thing in a week? we haven't even finished our intro meetings yet. Seriously, think about it for a moment.
