From the perspective if a relatively new player (1.5 months) . . .

LOVE the new toop tip for the modules, really helps me figure out the range of my guns

I understand how older players whom have already learned my heart all this stuff would find that ennoying, but don,t remove it just add the option to hide or something. . .

Mining Barges +10

I can now effectively mine in my Retreiver and not be lighyears behind the HULK. I can even attempt to mine in Low Sec or even Null Sec using a procurer and have a (relatively) better chance of getting out of there with the skin of my back . . . Thanks


New "Agent Missions" tab bellow the auto-pilot route. NICE

However there is one (small) function I'd like to have added to this. When click on it you have the option to warp to / gate to a station. Why is there not the "align to" option there, (either in the context menu or in the main menu). I'd just like the ability to align to the station I must dock at while I wait for my drones to be recalled . . . I know its a small thing but it would be usefull (for me anyway) .


Everyone please understand that whenever someone designs or (god forbid) changes a UI. For every 1 person that complains about it there is atleast 1 (or more) that loves it but says nothing. (I myself like the Unified Inventory, while I haven't used the old one I can honestly say that I have not had any issues with moving my stuff from one container to an other (and I honeslty prefer not having 20 trillian windows pop-up).

+1
They promised when 2200 new hate pages generated from Uninv . They tried to playing with time,they think about it maybe we will forget that.
But no, we wont forget this crap inventory tree system. We want those changes.

Explain to me....
1) How removing a skill and replacing it with something completely unrelated (other than the corporation aspect) is a balancing issue? Those are your words. Balancing would be about bringing two or more things into intended comparative relations with each other. I fail to see how a multi-racial population restriction and the cost of hiring allies in war are comparable.

2) How removing Ethnic Relations and its function is different than the removal of the entire Learning category of skills and their functions. Sounds the same to me yet you treat them differently, and then talk about a "long-standing policy".

Allow tooltips to be disabled. After my first 6 months of playing EVE I've rarely found them useful and quite often found them in the way.


Also please:

- fix the Tactical Overlay so it always displays properly after jumping systems with it on.
- fix player standings so they always display properly. For example, when I log in and see many players in local as neutral when they aren't neutral and after players jump systems and appear to me as neutral when they aren't neutral. (The second one is is rather good at producing unreimbursable losses)
- allow us to move or disable the view blocking display of notifications top center on the client while still allowing these notifications to be shown in the Log.
- allow Strategic Cruisers to have their cargo bay opened when they are not in use.
- fix the fleet window so it displays correct information and doesn't become broken requiring the fleet members to form a new fleet so they can receive leadership bonuses.
- allow background graphics such as the sun and nebula clouds to be disabled. The stars are fine and don't hinder game play.

Thank you

When you do, I would like to ask that the "Active" pop-up be revived.

For those of us on scout duty, covertly looking at targets/gates/whs it is comforting to know (by hovering) that the cloak is on. I know it's supposed to glow but in some cases it's not clearly visible (at least to a color impaired noob like me). I prefer to look at my targets than my ship to make sure it's safe...

Define "better". If you mean largest ore hold, then yes, Mackinaw is better. If you mean yield, Hulk is still king of all mining.

Actually, I'm expecting they'll release the ORE mining frigate when the current mining frigates get revamped later this fall. See this DevBlog for more info.

In chat the morning of the patch, the Devs said "winter" for the ORE frigate.

Thank you for responding CCP Greyscale. I decided to go back through the old patch notes and see how many times a skill has been removed and/or replaced, while characters were forced to take a new unrelated skill. I wanted to see if there was a precedent, and to be absolutely sure that I'm not not talking out of my ... well, here's what I found:

This seems to be the first time in the history of eve that one skill magically became a different unrelated skill. I'm not sure the *policy* should apply. I do think that it is a better method of handling it than letting the unusable skill exist only as a collectors item; however, the removal of the learning skills and modifications to connection skills seem to have set a precedent.

The wall of text below are the similar changes found in old patch notes, displayed to illustrate my point.

###

Build 3364:
The following skills have had their bonuses changed to capacitor need reduction: Electronic Warfare, Sensor Linking, Weapon Disruption, Propulsion Jamming.

Surely the propulsion jamming skill still effected propulsion jamming modules.

Build 31460:
The Salvage Drone Operation skill was incorrectly added to TQ as a mission reward, and has been removed.

I don't know the impact of this. Were characters able to train the skill before it was removed, or was the listed mission reward simply incorrect? It's not mentioned in the forum thread linked from the patch notes.

Build 3680:
The skill Astronautic Engineering has been taken off the NPC market

Build 69477:
The Chief Financial Officer skill book has been removed from the market.

Build 213149:
All learning skills were removed from characters, and the skill points were reimbursed.

Build 259851:
Accompanying the changes to Agent Divisions, seven ‘Connection’ skills will be removed. The skill books of the old connection skills will be replaced with their new equivalents which are listed below. Players who have the old skills already trained will have those skills removed and receive replacement skillbooks in the hangar of their home station and have the skillpoints reimbursed.

Inferno 1.2:
Ethnic Relations skill changed into Diplomatic Relations. The old effect of segregating corporations by races is gone, so all corporations can have all races, always. The skill now reduces the cost to hire allies in war. The skill will not be reimbursed as it is not being removed, but changed.

Im pretty Sure Ravenclaw is a troll trying to get miners Ire. Ignore Ravenclaw.

Any one who tries to appear that they have such little understanding of english grammar and spelling is trolling.
