With the Phoebe release, to be published on November 4th, we are going to improve the relative value of Data Sites, add valuable information to structures in deadspace sites that might spawn an Expedition when being destroyed, and streamline the Career Agent mission descriptions.

Additionally to those improvements we are also going to fix defects associated with Expeditions.

Read all about those changes and improvements in CCP RedDawn's most recent blog All That Is Gold Does Not Glitter - Data Sites, Expeditions!

I think this should be added to the game

The most important, increase the value of all overseer box's by 200%
Add new dead spade items (damage mods, ECCm's, Sebos, Tracking computers Etc. etc.)
Boost officers mods to require only 1 pg and 1 cpu to fit, to balance the things out.

Give plexes small chance to drop loot from only other lower tier plex, (10/10 have chance to drop any faction/dead space item from it's faction loot table)

To be honest, I think they should just re-value them in a very simple fashion.

1st Tier - 2.5 mill
2nd Tier - 5 mill
3rd Tier - 7.5 mill
4th Tier - 10 mill
5th tier - 15 mill

10th Tier - 50 mill
20th Tier - 150 mill

or something or other. But the lower tier stuff is really, REALLY worthless

While you're messing with the loot drops could you rebalance these NPC's to be sufficiently challenging and "boss like". Some of these are just terribly weak to fight against. I want to have a real boss fight with these guys. And the "bosses" that are structures should really shoot back like the hive mother drone thingy does which is a real PITA to kill. Very boss like.

We are getting quite close to release now and unfortunately, I have yet to conquer my need to sleep at least 6 hours a night ;) I will keep this in mind though, we have a lot of NPCs that could use a rebalance not just these boss ones. However, my team are working on improving our NPC authoring tools at the moment and hopefully in the near future we can take on a bigger rebalance task.

some nice new mission scripts would be good .. with random storylines .. probably a set number structure based missions but with the details always being random .. and the random mission maps too go with it..

T3's need to be versatile so no rigs are necessary ... they should not have OP dps and tank

ABC's should be T2, remove drone assist, separate HAM's and Torps range, -3 HS for droneboats

Nerf web strength, Make the blaster Eagle worth using

You conquer it or completely loose your mind. I think I went somewhere in the middle. The best part is when you reach day 4 or 5 (like you know what ******* day it is by then) and you start talking to people who aren't even there.

So the faction sites in WH space?

Will it be randomized which faction site appears? As WH's have no geographic location (to define they are in angel space etc)

Will the rats in these sites be faction NPC's or sleepers?

Is any lore being added to explain why NPC's are setting up facilities in WH space?

Did anyone see an answer to these Q's?
I just went through ad couldn't see any further details.

Only Data and Relic sites in Class1, 2 and 3 w-space. NO COMBAT SITES.

On SiSi: Angel/Serpetis/Guristas Data/Relic sites in a single system, sharing space happily ever after.

NO RATS damnit! ;)

No word on the Lore as of yet. Hopefully something will come because this, as it seems to be right now, is pretty much ******** as far as immersion goes.

*EDIT: uh, the commonly-used-in-slang word for intellectual disability (a disorder characterized by significantly impaired cognitive functioning and deficits in adaptive behaviors, starting with R- and ending in -ed) is apparently a bad word. Oh my.

instead of changing how cloaking works for every one why not jut focus on bombers and how bombs work

What if bombers can keep cloaking as is but they have to lock a target before launching a bomb.

Lock target launch bomb warp away. If they are warp stabbed fitted it will slow down lock time.

Bombs travels in the direction of locked item . Fire and forget system

You can also increase range of bombs. make them twice as fast and twice the range.

Make bombs lockable so they can goo off pre mature.

A bomber launhes a bomb and a fast lock hits the bomb and bombs damages or kills the bombing ship and bombs. a chain reaction of sorts

A bomb launch from as far as 60 k out . Bombs travel 60 k and then goo off. Any thing can happen to it as it travels Taking 10 seconds to travel that distance. how ever increase it damage distance form 15 to 20. more reward and rick for bombers. A bomb should do more damage to a capital, pos and stations then a battleship. not just max out at 8000

Plenty of time for ships to fight bombers and or warp away if they are prepared.

Also create T 2 bombs that do more damage, higher range and speed
