CCP, Keep up the damn good work

I ******* love you.

I've been asking for roaming sleepers (sleepers that camp wormholes) to be added to wormholes, and when CCP finally ad there they're for k-space only?!

To be honest, I'll admit that that reaction and post was impulsive and not as thought out as usual for me. It is quite a trivial detail, even more so having never suffered the consequence of failing to upgrade my clones. Nonetheless, over all these years, I've come to realize and depend on all the minor trivial details because summed up they make the biggest difference to the mergence of lore and game mechanics into a unique blend that pretty much spells the soul of the entire EVE universe and concept. Like the saying goes, it's the little things that matter.

Likewise, after more time to think about it, it really is such a trivial thing and it's removal take little away from the actual experience. That, and reducing the amount of "ragequits" due to negligence by subscribers therefore more money for CCP, and everybody's happy!

On another note.... Tech 3 Destroyers! Awesomeness!! Ever since I discovered the excellency of the Tengu-class cruiser, I've been dreaming of and desiring more T3. Whether more new subsystem/hull components or actual complete starships. And, killing 2 birds with one missile, we get a destroyer class out of the deal - a ship type I'd always considered lacking in variety and needing more T1 teirs or advanced variants (like a command destroyer to serve in similar capacity of a command ship battlecruiser but more applicable to the FW battlespace).

I really wish I could get the new Naglfar skin without having to rip the rigs off the one I already have.

Maybe I can make a deal with someone in this regard.

CCP Has on numerous occasions hinted that this is just the beginning of a series of changes to the clone system. One that stands out very specifically was Pokethulhu's presentation in regards to EVE, Valkyrie, and Dust/Legion clones (possibly) becoming interchangeable and that you'd have a clone for each game all tied to one character. Rest assured, CCP has plans for clones.

EDIT: Some examples from Fanfest 2014 and EVE Vegas 2013

will they be rebalanced at the same time ? and when would this be?

I'm excited to see the new changes, hopefully we'll get a nice preview next weekend at EDU.

I'm also hoping *really, really* hoping we'll be able to use a window mode of the star map. Would be great if window vs fullscreen was optional.

The same would go for the ISIS browser, i.e. ability to quickly place a ship on a mental map of how dangerous / can I attack it. Being an old but returned player, with several hundred ships in the game I find it too hard to quickly learn of a new ship's capabilities at the moment.

Now this is what i call a proper expansion, i love all of it.

T3 rebalancing and work to get them into the PBR world are not coupled to each other. As for questions about ship rebalancing schedule, that's not my area and I'm not sure what's been planned or announced.



There have been a couple significant steps toward changing EVE's lighting model, including linear lighting, which is a prerequisite for PBR and came earlier in the year. PBR is the latest and probably the most dramatic.

Yes, PBR is the final step to make Amarr ships look like ivory and gold, as the design intended. You can see that in the PBR preview from CCP Seagull's dev blog:

A couple Amarr PBR examples

Wasn't in this expansion the supposed based occupancy systems in null modification.

All in all seems good modifications .
