EVE General Discussion

I want to see exhumers become useful and public labs fixed.

Seconded.

"Thirded"

Agree with the lack of content afforded to the industrial focus.

Not so sure of the "death star" approach to mining, problems afoot with that kind of answer.

And unfortunatley as you request, according to existing news features, the next update theme is focussing on the War processes in game it seems.

Despite that CCP would do wise to start considering the down trodden and defunctly underpaid useless as most people try to keep reminding about the role. It is possibly one of the professions in game that has been negleted and held back the longest.

Mind I don't want it to stop the focus elsewhere as a preferential priority either as those other aspects fo the game are equally as important. If not more so in my view as the many broken aspects of conflict mechanics seem to be causing a few people to lose their heads atm. Which may be more important features to get right. Potentially of apparent interest to the industrials affected by them.

…if only.

The funny thing is that the best thing that could happen to industrialists would probably be the exact opposite of what they tend to propose.

… and the minerals I mine myself are free!

T3 mining ships with the same yields as Hulks but better resists, sound fine to me.

You'd get better resists if you tanked your hulk properly rather than going for the highest ore yield possible but that's the price you pay

An important part of suggesting any changes to an MMO is to suggest what outcome you expect to achieve: perhaps something is broken, or you want to provide some new ways for players to interact.

Diving straight into a feature suggestion without indicating what the purpose the feature serves, is what programmers refer to as "code smell."

Just suggesting a new mining ship that allows all miners to mine more ore in the expectation of making more ISK is displaying a grievous misunderstanding of economics and capitalism. As supply of materials goes up, the value goes down. This will be especially true for people who mine the easily accessible materials: everyone is mining more of it, the price collapses.



How much fuel does this defensive bubble require? How mobile is the ship projecting the bubble? Do you understand bumping mechanics? How do you intend to make a profit while using this ship? Can you see how such a ship would be incredibly useful in PvP?

Mining ships are fine, teh idea is that you have guards to defend you of you are worried about being attacked. People seem to forget that ratrher conveniently.

POS's need an overhaul (see flogging teh dead horse for modular starbases) and maybe some more and exciting other indy stuff for teh lads and laddettes who enjoy it.
