I agree, the changes are like tearing off an old band-aid, painful now but ultimately good for the markets. I'm really glad to see the research prices for multiple runs weren't correct and the very flat manufacturing market of yesterday start to move. While all the changes aren't wonderful yet, I can see some light at the tunnel. Whether that light is the locomotive of the Pirhanna Express, I'm not sure yet.

Why does dragging and dropping blue prints work differently depending where the blue print is?

If its local you have to drag to the center of the circle.

If its at range you just have to drag to the upper window and it loads.

Being a member of our Alliance/Corp procurement, fitting and contracting team, I got all excited when I read about the fitting changes. Unfortunately still can’t fit the the majority of our doctrines - simply haven’t got the skill to jump into a hull to fit in the first place.

For us fitting guys and girls, wouldn't it have been better to enable us to fit hulls regardless, but disable the ability to un-dock from a station.

You might propably take a look into the balance of teams. I have noticed that most of the teams that provide bonuses for small class do also provide bonuses for large class and up plus speciliazation for caps and supercaps. For dedicated small class producers (AF, ceptors and alike) this makes teams practically unobtainable as 300 mln and up make a lot of sense for cap production but will not be viable for the production of e.g. AF.

I do like the added dynamic with teams and changing manufacturing costs a lot but currently I feel somehow excluded from the team auctions.

Overall I'm liking the changes that have gone on. The new UI certainly makes things quicker and easier, in my opinion.

One thing about it though is that when you hover over any of the materials required for any of the types of jobs, it tells you how many of each of the items you have compared to how many you need (very nice touch) All except for the Optional Items on the Invention tab. It would be really nice if I could see how many of a certain type of decryptor I have left, without having to go and check.

Way wrong. You just said that humans manage assembly lines nowadays. We're talking about the future, where humanoids are not needed to manage or maintain machinery. There is no legitimate reason why the ships / POS couldn't be maintained by robots, droids, nanobots, A.I., whatever. In WH space we fight Sleepers, ancient machines that have reconstructed and maintained themselves for millenia (thousands of years). We have collected their kibbles'n'bits for a good long while now. We have the technology, we can rebuild him.

CCP, I am talking to you now. To say that in the future all manufacturing must have a human component is unbelievable. I reject your premise and I take off my glove to slap the little nitwit that proposed the concept. I'm ashamed of the rest of you for going along with it. Go sit in the corner.

Wormhole space became my reason to continue paying two memberships for years now. Why? Because of the thing you are taking away now. It's not about the ISK for me, it's the principle of freedom. I destroyed your puny little Customs Offices and I thank you for letting me. You gave me FREEDOM.

Before Crius, I had no taxes in my system. Now, I have taxes in my system. I don't care if it's 0.0012%, I'm here to get away from that. We all have to live in that world all day - we're forced to. Please let us escape to the future. It's the only hope we have.

Let us believe in a future where man and woman can live free of government taxes and control by harvesting the land and making what we need, as our ancestors have always done.

Ore reprocessing interface suggestion: drag off

When reprocessing ores after mining, the drag-onto interface is good. Dragging works well if you want to add multiple ore types (e.g. Massive Scordite, Condensed Scordite). It is also nice to not having to scroll through a list of items if you want to reprocess ores in a station full of mission-junk.

However, removing item types from the reprocessing interface could be improved slightly by allowing them to be dragged off again. Currently you have to right-click, and then select remove from a drop down list. This feels clunky in comparison to dragging them on to add them.

I also like the change to what happens when you bring up the PI. The small planet selection panel can be kept open as you move from one planet to the next, without obscuring too much of the screen. This works better than the pre-Crius version.

YGTBFSM..... Really???

You don't have the skills to do your little niche job so the whole freakin concept of training for skills to improve your lot ingame should be just tossed out the window???

This what you get when you cater to noobs by wiping out exploration skills usefulness and major nerfing lots of others.

What's next? People are gonna want to anchor POS's without having to grind for months, spending lots of isk and/or REAL money in the process. Or maybe even, crazy as it sounds, they'll be expecting to jump in the game and within no time at all get BPO's researched to the same level as folks who spent many months getting their BPO's to Perfect.

WHAT!!!!!!!!!! They've already done that!!!!!!

No way! No smart business would take a dump on their long time loyal customer base like that. No way. Impossible..

Believe it or not I partially agree with you.






It is the best patch ever...for Goonswarm.

For many established Research and industry folks....not so good.

This is a pointless argument. "Paying humans to work" is backstory for a game play mechanic. The game mechanic is to pay for your jobs based on the cost of the type of job. It was simply too basic pre-Crius, and it makes more sense in the new methodology. You already paid these fictional humans to do the jobs pre-Crius. You just paid a flat rate for any job...big, small, simple, complex. Everything was paid the same.

It is more realistic now....the higher the cost of a set of inputs is a good way to measure the complexity of manufacturing an item, and a more complex process usually involves higher costs of production (not just the cost of the inputs, but the actual work involved in manufacturing).
