I'm now officially a bittervet, since I got discomfort from reading this.

I mean, those two remaps would really help me out, but now I'm stuck training things I'm not really going to use for the next 7 months or so. I knew this day would come, the day where I'm still new enough to the game that changes aimed towards new players would be very good for me, yet I'd have played for long enough that I'd be exempt from receiving these benefits. Tisk tisk.


You know what would be completely unnecessary,
but actually really good crowd control?


Everyone receives a free remap ... FOR FREE! ;)



Personally I'd totally be against this, because we shouldn't acknowledge whining with a present ...
... but that's just my personal opinion. It'd be a good way to control the crowd.


Well, this is just a giant **** you from CCP to everyone that has been playing since 2011-2012 or so.

I have about the same SP as you and I'm not bothered by not getting bonus remaps now.

You can either learn skills faster and be limited to only a certain area of skills, or learn bit slower and learn any skill.

I like how you prove my first post in this thread absolutely right.


OTOH at the moment I am unable to tell if you're just trolling ...
... or really are that way. I don't want to bother looking through your posting history.



You deserve nothing.


I hereby sentence you to death by snoosnoo. (what's the spellnig again?)

Dismissed.

This thread sums up well every thread this OP has ever posted.

Why should I be mad? Sounds like a good idea.

Agreed. Attribute remaps are overrated and only cater to OCD game players like the OP. Who then inflict whinging post after whinging post about how this that or the other is all so unfair.

Yeah, there was no official dev post even suggesting that they would remove attributes. It was a lone dev from the art deparment repeatedly posting in a thread that he personally sorta maybe liked the idea and was asking to relevant devs about it at lunch or wherever. It took a while, but his boss probably finally told him, in a non workplace violence appropriate fashion, to STFU

Anyway, OP, your tears . . .

CCP, there are off buttons for ship explosions, missile effects, turret effects, etc. "Immersion" does not seem to be harmed by those. So, [u]please[/u] give us a persisting off button for the jump gate and autoscan visuals.

And here I thought we'd make it full week without one of this OP's beautifully constructed, reasonable, and worthwhile threads.

Whew. Dodged that bullet.

Just like the choice of training learning skills and gaining SP at a faster rate, or not training these skills and gaining it slower, right? Roll

Who cares about remaps. And please, new players (not alts) probably don't even know/use this feature. It only helps older accounts with those pesky LvL 5 books needing completed (obviously by increasing the points to that book's primary and secondary attribute).

Well, isn't that the purpose of character attributes? To enhance your character's abilities whether you are going for a arcane ranger in D&D or training skill XYZ to 5 in EVE?

If character attributes is by your definition a "unneeded level of complexity", I strongly advise you taking some math classes.

I'd love to have extra bonus remaps to concentrate on skill sets like drones, navigation, leadership, trade, etc. that don't require a year to train.

Actually, I'd rather have regular remaps available every 6-12 months instead of 1 year since last remap.

So I guess you would be ok with it, if attributes would be dropped and you could train with same speed as you currently can with a flat point distribution

Nobody asked me to stop posting, I just felt the discussion had run its course. I normally don't post on matters that don't have to do with art and graphics, but in this instance I'd been talking about these questions with the folks on the team and they were fine with me diving into the forum thread.

Anyway, as far as I understand, there's nothing new to add to the Winter CSM minutes on the possibility of changes to or removal of attributes, other than that the game development team did read all the back-and-forth in that earlier thread. And, I can't really offer you any insight into the additional remap question.

I just find that it's ****ing hilarious that this thread was started by someone in an alliance that greatly benefits from pulling in new people.

Fake edit: And for Pete's sake, OP: unless you're still kicking it all chill in the parking lot after school on your sweet Moto Razr, you have a full keyboard in front of you and no text limit. Proper. English.

If CCP removes attributes then all the pedantic, obsessive compulsive, bean counting accountant types might up and quit. That's like 97.68512% of the player base.

This really just seems like a band aid to help new players while they work on their plan to remove attributes....

I'm not sure why so many people are leaping to conclusions.

Um we kinda have to when major changes are implemented and NOONE from CCP bothers to tell us about it, let alone why
