EVE Information Portal

It looks like plastic, I preferred the old model.

Lol, so it turns out that not only can you put a bounty on anyone you want to now, but you can also put one on yourself - I just put 100,000 on my own head for ***** and giggles.

Come n' get it, kiddies

EDIT: I have to add, as an afterthought, and having never had a bounty on me before...

is receiving an EVE-mail telling you WHO placed the bounty a new thing or has it always been there?

Yeah cuz it's not like there's nothing else new in the game AT ALL is it. They were relying one hundred per cent on salvage drones being a game changer.

PVP
1. All Heavy Missile ships are now obsolete
2. Drake is worst battlecruiser for pvp
3. Hurricane got nerfed so it is kinda useless now
4. Tengu now sucks compared to other t-3's




With all this in mind I thought the plan was to Balance the ships not make ships useless to use
since the Caldari ships have take not 5% but a 40 to 50 hit on range and 12 to 15 % hit on damage and the boost to the size is negated by the reduction. How is that making ships fair or complareable please explain..

I guess the CCP wants to loose money as most of its players were Caldari cause in Jita alone on any given day was in around 2000 people.

In the past year there have been big changes that are really causing me to rethink my playing eve in the long run your 10 more a month you made some drastic changes that might make the game to hard to do level 4's . I love the game but with these changes i just do not know if i can see this as a game i am willing to put money on every two months... i was just begining to be able to do the Level 4 missions on my own now that seems it may not be my best plan... I was realling begining to love this game....

Ships are only as useless as the players that can't figure out how to use them effectively. Seriously, even a Velator can be useful.

The changes just mean you have to rethink your fits. When you consider how many ships have been buffed as well as nerfed, don't start whining just because your personal favourites took a hit.

You didn't 'reduce' heavy missle range, you cut it by over 25%

Stayed on grid, launched drones directly from the combat ship (I thought about that leave and return scenario, too). "Intermittent" may be the appropriate word. Trying everything I can imagine to get them to start chain-salvaging on their own, but nothing. Will try logging off and taking another mission.

My feedback,

New sounds:
Menu to shut the ones we dislike off is badly needed.
Skill complete sound sounds like my doorbell. Might be a bit of a laugh, but really, it doesn't fit the whole space-ship feel.
Most sounds seem to lack a connection with what they represent or sound far too similar to one another.
Also unnecessary sounds are unnecessary. Many feel like they didn't need to be added and are gimmicky.

Targeting/UI "Improvements":
Options to chose between the old and new would be nice. Personally have no issue with the new, however this depends on your favored layout/monitor size.

New ships/models:
Nice. Very nice. Especially enjoy the new mining frigate.

New rat AI:
Haven't had them shoot drones much myself, as I rarely use them, but I understand the frustration of drone users. Perhaps upload a tutorial on how to safely use them and slap it on the news feed.
Group aggro is currently messed up. This may not be an issue for people such as myself who use a well tanked ship for missions, however I can see it being a death sentence for many younger players or those who favor different approaches to pve.

Missile/Drake changes:
This is the second missile alteration I´ve seen in my time playing, and to be fair, medium artillery or rails have a far superior range to the heavy missiles of today. Claiming they are all "medium" range is inaccurate when you consider the range you can get off of other systems. Maybe define medium range more clearly.
Drake spam may be an annoyance, however my opinion is that the fault doesn't lie with the ship or the weapons, but with a lack of alternatives.

Crime watch:
Fine and good, but while I don't care much for pvp myself, adding a sort of "duel" option to be able to 1v1 pvp in high sec would be an idea.
Bounty on everyone and how it's implemented is alright, but we´ll soon see those tags on everyone's face, make them smaller or give us an icon of some sort for it instead before the server looks like the inside of a sheriff's office.

General statements:
EVE is neither fully about pve or pvp. It's more about being able to do what you like in whatever way you like. What many seem to forget is how dull EVE would get without all those others who don't play the game the same way you do.
While making game changes is much like politics in that regardless what decisions you make someone will always be unhappy, try and keep an open mind on what effects each choice will have on different types of players.
Some parts of this expansion feel rather biased against elements of the community who don't have the time/devotion to join larger alliances (eg: loners who just log in after a day of work to go have some small scale pvp fun or grind missions or do whatever else they enjoy doing), while others seem based at discouraging alliances from fielding certain ships which sort of spoils the feeling that we´re playing a sandbox game.

Sometimes change done just for the sake of change isn't for the best, where new content always seems welcome.

Ambient sounds missing from Captain's Quarters. I miss hearing the overhead speaker voice and clanking sounds that made it feel like you were in a space station and not a plastic bubble. it's too quiet now and ruins the immersion.

Bad patch is bad. The only thing worth a damn in this patch are the new dessies, and some of the cruiser/frig tweaks.
