Upcoming Feature and Change Feedback Center

but i had to fly a rifter uphill through snow to get to school so all of the new players should have to as well

Very good change. Made no sense that all new player fits had to be limited by PG usage due to the length in training WU V.

Love it. I'd personally say go farther and split the skills so they arnt dependent on each other. Probably have the change the name and some requirements but it wouldn't cut down training time too much except for the newest of players.

Yes.

If I had to train it to level 5, so does everyone else.

I hope it's only a start of a good way.

There are plenty of skills with useless prereqs.
I want even see all the prereqs for T2 ships to be reduced. i.e. newbie would fly an assault frigate with racial frigate IV and assault frigate IV.
It's now pointless to have bonuses per racial basic ship for these hulls as they are requiered to be at five. These skills still would be trained at five for bonuses provided by hulls, but entrance level for newbies will be lowered for sure.

Current system are so inconsistent. Sometimes we need lvl5 skill to proceed to the next, sometimes we don't.

Look at Jump Drive Operation and Jump Drive Calibration.
The first one is capacitor usage, the second is jump range "i.e. power skill".

For jam, damp and other e-war we can only train "capacitor usage" at 4, and then we can train "power skill" (for example, Sensor Linking (IV) -> Signal Suppression). But Jump Calibration still have a ~60 day of prereq for some reason (none). Nice starting way for BO for sure.

The same applies for Advanced Spaceship Command, which is terrible skill itself. The time when there were enough skills, this is one is just created to be there. It has only lvl1/lvl4/lvl5 proceeds. The skill itself designed to help with warp-out of capital ships. But instead we have to train to V to even sit on capitals.
Some skills (like, Freighter, Jump Freighter) can be trained al lower levels of ASC, but what the point of this, if every capital itself have prereq ASC V? We can just delete this skill and add 25% agility for every capital instead.
I wont continue the list of trash skills right now, but it is actually super-huge, literally almost every skillgroup has some.

It's just unbelievable how badly designed some of them.

Jump Drive Operation and Jump Drive Calibration are just as different from each other (as Danetta already seems to have pointed out above me).

No CCP, NO!

Lowering skillrequirements
Daily mission for exp...
No new skills for faxes....


Stop turning eve into WoW.

All the changes you are making to the game to make it more accesible for new players or the larger crowd is killing the flair the game had before.

(a) they shouldn't optimize the game around the assumption that people will inject

(b) having essential skills with V prereqs from almost unrelated skills means that every character is trained the same and the task is one of discovery and waiting and not one of optimally choosing levels of skills to get best performance at intermediate ages.

(c) imo waiting on long skills probably doesn't increase the average length of sub, nor is likely to convert trials.

it's comments like this that diminish the validity of the actual concerns whith some of the changes ccp makes
