I like the distance-from-hole change. Those who don't like it should propose an alternative (and the status quo doesn't cut it as an alternative imo.)

You obviously was not at the meeting. There was an excellent proposed alternative by the masses and by corbexx, one that would bring with it a posibility of new doctrines and more fights. Inverting the Mass / Distance spawn.

If they were to do this, it would bring in the ability to possibly use kiting ships as a doctrine, fast ships could be used instead of the current slow armour doctrines that dominate hole fights.

This change would also allow combat rolling as a continued valid tactic for small groups to maintain hole control and fight outnumbered.

This proposed alternative was mentioned several times by several people and was met with the majority of people agreeing. This is a fair and honest alternative that has been issued in feedback threads.

Perhaps you should read through some of these threads and / or listen to the townhall before stating we haven't offered valid alternatives...

Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week. Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person."

So, would randomly exploding asteroids or gates make the game more fun for you?
Seems to be that CCP believes we all feel that this new design philosophy could make everyone happy?

I demand that when I jump a gate in k space that I be in range to jump back, and not ~12km from the gate. This is an outrage that I am unable to immediately run away from any danger that may await me on the other side. #ccplease

There is good and bad in the patch like many patches. The manufacturing changes are mixed at best. This patch will be viewed in a similar light.

That said...if CCP spent more time on how to generate a better new player retention rate and fixing things that are really broken we might get a better player experience.

Nothing will generate more content or "mix it up" in the game like new players with new ideas and things actually working.

Some of the worst code in the game is the POS code but what does CCP do.....they encourage more of them and let everyone anchor them and make it easier to have one rather than actually fix the code.

All I see from CCP is a continual loop looking for the low hanging fruit to maintain the existing base because they can't generate new players fast enough.

CCP will not change until you stop re-upping your accounts.

Where is the reward?

The reward is the ISK-printing machine provided by WH sites. Highest ISK per hour in the game (as far as shooting red crosses goes) and in complete isolation from the rest of Eve (and therefore in complete safety) if done correctly.

In response all of the major wormhole entities and many of the minor ones are banding together in protest.

"If on August 26th when Hyperion is launched we will be taking our T3s to highsec to destroy every single incursion Mothership until we get what we want. I want to make this very clear for everyone listening out there: this is not about pissing off incursion runners, or getting paid for the Mothership site (sorry incursioners, no tears if you get the payout for the sites), this is about protesting the wormhole changes." -Noobman (Hard Knocks CEO)

Having a town hall and forums does not mean they're automatically going to implement everything people ask for. That's not how anything works. If it did, this game would be unplayable. Forums are for discussion. CCP is discussing the issue, and they happen to disagree with players on this one.

Also, good luck with this 'protest' idea of yours. Not entirely sure what you think it will accomplish, but best of luck regardless.

inb4 "ccp apologist", "ccp alt", "asskisser" or whatever cute little insult you think will make you feel better.

The only safe place in EVE is inside a station. Wormholes are too safe if you can cut off access to them so easily. Adapt or die. Or go back to WoW. Or whatever. You won't be missed.

All i'm seeing here is:

"Waaa, we can't run sites in peace, waaa we cant deny people fights unless we can win them, waaa unknown space might be unknown and dangerous"

Just because every Wormholer in the game wants it, doesn't mean you get it, it's a change that makes jumping Wh's dangerous for once, Get used to it because i really hope it sticks.

No?


wat?

So jumping through a hole and every ship ending up scattered across a large sphere, different distances from the hole, and people dying 100% due to luck is ok, but dying randomly with no opportunity to affect ones survival is not ok in Null?

Why should they stop with wormholes, after all dying to random luck is such fun, isn't it?

Or have you just not been paying attention and think it is just about whiney wormholers?

This is about the direction they are choosing for all of us.

wow, this thread. sorta funny but yet sad. its funny to think that wormhole people can actually kill an incursion and sad that they just want to be able to close hostile holes quicker so they can make tons of ISK in peace.

Wow, the mountains laboured and produced a mouse, send some people on a world tour, let them experience all the delights, visit wise men, and return after twenty years.

And when asked what they gained from all the wisdom, all the experience, and all the travels, and they come out with the immortal words
