EVE Information Portal

thinking about how players use the game, and facilitating them. this is good

there was a feedback request a while ago regarding margin trading scams, and i remember some posts (some were mine) saying 'provide more information, make the market mechanics less opaque, and the problem can sort itself out'. hoping some of the tooltips here'll help that?

i don't like missions in eve because i'm convinced the repetitive solo gameplay drives away newbies, and i don't think you're blind to that. (besides being really boring for those who stay) looking forwards to seeing where you're headed with this, and if pve can be a bit more interesting.

what? oh, uh. sure. will afterburners ever be worth fitting?

sig tanking

Glass helmets are the most important part of this patch. People asked for them since their removal in Incarna. I wouldn't be surprised if *the door* will be opened couple patches later (and that actually can make me play EVE instead of 4 other spaceship MMOs I'm playing).

I'm actually intrigued at these level 4 frigate missions, especially if they are tailored to be done in PVP fit frigates (i.e. you need a scram, and both active and buffer tanks are viable options).

If I were designing them, there'd be a small number of these agents in highsec, many more in low (and null if the storyline would allow; I'm assuming these are Empire-only for lore reasons), and the agents would only offer you one per day, so those that just want to dabble in them can stay in highsec if they want, but those that actively want to farm them can fight over the right to farm them in low.


100mn MWDs costing less cap is going to be hilarious fun. I'm not sure if this is a good change, a bad change, or (as I suspect) a good change that goes a little too far, but meh, it will be fun.


I'm also concerned at the faster incursion respawns in highsec. Incursions in high simply offer better ISK/hour than running incursions outside highsec and this is only going to get worse.

as a person with multiple gallente female characters (including a 180m SP main), THANK GOD!

First the hair pieces, second, the totally see-through plastic tops--right? RIGHT!? I HAD ONE! i want it back!

Blue hair, like, REALLY blue, needs to come back too... i had blue hair as a gallente! we NEED it!

... oh, and the overview thing is fantastic. I will no longer have a legit excuse to shoot blues. UGH.

good stuff. Instar needs more nerf.

We already have a new "kind" of level 4's doable in a bombers - they're called (caldari & Minmatar) FW missions... using a cut and paste?
Clothes.... sigh.
Tinkering with WHs.... don't care.
Tinkering with a few ships... because it adds a few lines

Only real improvement to the game looks like the linkable overview settings and remote PLEXing..... Oh joy.

Uhm, no they can't. If you wan't to be an ******* and don't care for efficiency, you can just make sure your commandcenter is connected to your PI-network. Then you can simply use your commandcenter to slowly get at your PI in 500m³ increments.

By the way, if you don't use your own commandcenter, someone can also close you out by just closing you out. I experienced that myself while doing PI in W-Space. 100% taxes weren't enough for some people, they just denied me access outright.

Which is why I'm including those commandcenter "failsafes" now. If someone tries to stop me now, I can just avoid their taxes entirely, out of spite.

No Invention overhaul? Was it not supposed to come right after the industry overhaul? Or is this supposed to come in 18 months Soon(TM).

Not especially...

It would be nice if you fixed the stuff you broke in the last patch, and the previous one, and not just leave it fester away in its broken state.

More new stuff = more broken stuff that never gets fixed.

Holy crap I love these new releases!
