Upcoming Feature and Change Feedback Center

Yeah this is a terrible idea.

CPM Aeon Amadi here from Dust 514 side of things. Haven't played Eve with any real seriousness since 2012, so take what I say as a grain of salt, but coming from Dust 514 - which did have dailies - I'll weigh in on what I can.

Ultimately, I'm concerned as to why Dailies are necessary in Eve Online. It doesn't seem like the atmosphere would really support dailies without coming off as a gimmick. Does CCP feel that there isn't enough in-game activity going on? If not, surely there are other ways that can warrant greater activity. I feel like Eve's mission system has been severely lacking as of recent and while there are a lot of opportunities for players to engage in the game, the mission system is overly redundant and very boring. Burners are cool, but are very difficult and don't really apply to a greater margin of players.

If Dailies are inevitable, then they need to reflect diversity and be rewarding in a way that doesn't slight players that don't perform them. The rewards should be nice to have, but ultimately an afterthought. A player shouldn't feel as though they are going to fall behind if they don't log in and one of the primary benefits of Eve Online was that you still progressed even when you couldn't log in - something I've exploited to the fullest in my time playing Dust 514. Likewise, dailies shouldn't be "free stuff" for players just because they logged in. There should be some commitment involved and it should have variety to appeal to the players' normal in-game day.

For example: Allowing the player to select a single daily "mission" to complete out of a list of widely different activities EDIT: -rather than being able to or having to complete them all . Be it mining 20,000m3 worth of ore, killing 10 other players, or what have you. It should empower and encourage them to do what they were already going to do. They shouldn't feel as though they are being "nudged" toward a different playstyle that they don't care for. What this inevitably means is that you're going to have to consider how each and every player lives their in-game lives and account for them in unique, but interesting and enthralling ways.

Hope my feedback helps.

Gimmick, Feature or Bug??
I see the great idea behind this, You give players a reason to undock, which are a good thing for most players, but defenetly not all, and also you are making the "SP farmers" with 10+ accounts farming SP "work for it" in order to actually make it profitable.

However this is a big spit in the face to people who use a lot of their time in the game not undocking or metagameing. I think some of the reasons these play-styles exist in the game is because there are no dailies in EVE making these players not loose out on "progress" by playing this way. I'm of course talking about HR people who do interviews, "IT departments", Spais, Station traders, market analysts, alliance leaders and mega industrialists who sit 95% in Excel and 5% ingame. I feel this is a feature made for what you guys see as the "ideal player" with one account shooting red dots and sometime socialize and do stuff with his alliance. A lot of people find their niche in this game that does not fit into that role at all, me included. By forceing people into that playstyle you are essentially turning EVE Online into "just another space MMO". It will work nicely for getting a few new players in the first months, but it will tire out old and faithful players in the long run. After all, non-solo content in EVE is mostly created by older players. This might even lead to the death of EVE.

Also depending on how this is implemented it might be destructive for players that actually undock. If it is "any NPC" does that mean that as long as somone in your fleet kills a NPC you are good? Then its okay because then this just becomes the "obligatory gaterat" that must die when you take out a fleet as an FC. Reducing this feature to a annoying gimmick. If you have to do it solo, get a lasthit or take on specific rats it will drastically cut into an FC's time to take out fleets.

From my own perspective in the game: I am professional hauler in EVE, I therefore have 4 accounts with 3 "main" characters and a freighter condom. This account as my main PvP char, a contractor, a webber and a hauler. Where both the contractor and webber are often used for JF cynos. I do not care about the contractors sp, however the webber is on its way to become a link char. It will be easy to fulfill this on my main. But how the hell am I supposed to get this progress on my webber and hauler?? As it is right now they end their "hauling day" at some different random station in high sec every day, its not like I can have two ratting ships in every station in high-sec. Carrying them with me in my freighter will decimate the ability to take 845k m^3 contracts and still only useing 2 expanded cargoholds. When I am Jump Freighting its even more redicculus, try ratting in a PL nullsec staging area :P Professional hauling is already a high-risk, medium reward activity in eve. Don't make it worse!!

STOP THIS NOW. WORLD OF SPACE SHIPS #2016


You're acting like my ex girlfriend CCP "But he doesn't even call me every day! Awmihgawd! Stop. Clingy fk.

My suggestion for that idea CCP Rise:

YOU SHOULD LEAVE CCP and join Blizzard instead.

Why you wanna force ppl to do something in a game which based on freedom. This idea is so off-Eve that even the skill extractors sounds good against it. And even that idea was more for the toilet then good.

I actually like this idea. Here is how I would like to see it implemented: You get all these different possibilities to make "the daily grind" and they all count up until one is finished and then it is done. Hence, you don't have to think about them while you play, they will just fulfill naturally.
You should include (numbers are just a wiff in the air):
- write 50 comments in chat (Jita scammers and HR/Diplomat people will be happy)
- update 15 market orders (anyone who engages in trade)
- Do 15 jumps through gates or jumping once with a jumpdrive (webbing and cyno alts, personal and professional haulers and capital/JF pilots)
- Some industry/PI things (sorry, can't think of a good option here given that there are so many different types of industry)
- Kill a rat.
- Getting on a killmail, suicide gank included. (Logi needs to put on their whoring drones)
- mining 10,000 m^3 ore

- Be limited to only charcaters below a certain SP.

I don't write on the forums, I usually just lurk around but I can't with this one. I wasn't too much of a fan of the skill injectors in the beginning, but I didn't mind them that much either because in the end; The skills you get from them were trained by others, and then extracted. In fact, if you are over a certain amount of SP you don't get the full amount from the injectors which leads to some SP being lost to the void.

This new thing brings in SP that wasn't trained by anyone, but just instead gets rewarded out of thin air. We've had those occasions before where that has been the case. E.g. when servers have been down due to issues, preventing people to play. But to have them as rewards for simply just killing NPCs every 22 hours? It feels wrong, and I honestly don't like it.

I guess you could say that this makes up for the SP lost with the skill injectors, but I just don't like the idea of SP being "quest rewards". Again, the extractors/injectors are completely player driven, they don't appear on the market without someone having extracted already trained SP and placed them on there. This is just free SP waiting for someone to grab it.

I might just be someone who does not like change, but this is my opinion on it. I wouldn't want this in the game. If they have to implement something like this then they can do it with the 'opportunities' system already in-game, to encourage people to fulfill them and explore. That way new players would still get a boost to SP, but only for those opportunities and once they've done them, that's it.

Again, my opinions on the matter. If I have misunderstood this in some way then feel free to correct me, just make sure to be nice about. Also, English is not my primary language, so if there are any grammar mistakes etc. then I'm sorry.

I want 10,000 free SP each day just for playing.

I wish CCP hadn't put themselves in a place where this makes sense to them.

I hope this is not shot down and CCP starts giving love to PvE.


But frankly, I don't care at this moment.

NO !!! JUST NO !!!! look this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWtvrPTbQ_c

I know I should explain it, but I am so shocked, I only can say: Please no SP for Daily Things!!!! Please!
