When CCP say "Winter Release" the amount of vagueness inherent in that particular choice of temporal locus, strikes me as being rather generous.

Winter where I am lasts until may. June sometimes.

So Just to clear things up a little - winter 2011 or early 2012?

They have stated that the winter expansion will be coming "well before Christmas".

Expect it in the next 4-6 weeks.

I'm not sure if anyone noticed it (searching through forums seems to a bit weird), but I have noticed on the current sisi build a dps meter in fitting window with a new category Offence...


And here is a screenshot (well, picture of it Smile ) http://download.nightstalkers.cz/misc/dps.jpg

Another cool addition to winter expansion? I hope so! P

OR....Miners could go and mine somewhere else.

I know, it might be strange for some peoples but hey.

If you don't want to tank your ship/organize/do something clever/watch your overview, then you can also mine ice in Minmatar space or Amarr space. Low risk, low reward. Isn't that how it was before the Ice Interdiction ?

CCP, you're doing AN AWESOME JOB right now. Like, you wouldn't believe how hard it is to wait right now :D

Battlefield 3 will help us all to take a deep breath before going balls deep in some hybrid, slowmotion action :D

8 turrets, 8 launchers (holy crap)
Role bonuses to fitting and capacitor usage for large hybrid turrets and siege launchers (torpedoes)
Range (10/lv) and tracking speed (7.5/lv) bonuses to large hybrid turrets, and torpedo velocity (10/lv) and explosion-velocity (5/lv)

Devs, can this same design philosophy be applied to the Minmatar ships with split weapons systems? I am looking at the Typhoon and Huginn here.

No.

They already took those extra bonuses off of the Naga anyway.

I would really hope some thought is given to the current ore / ice compression mechanics of the rorqual, specifically how dreadful it is to navigate through the windows and dance with lines that don't update within the manufacturing install window.

And how you can't compress via cargo bay
And how you cannot have default job location start in the rorqual

etc..

Few things Ive found

1 Bug Reporting ingame streamlined to upload current logs and make quicker snap shots. Sisi only but I wished it hits TQ
2 View Market Button on any buyable module information window
3 New Wallet option to only show your priamry corporate wallet division for a tooltip
4 All active and assembeled ships delcare if they've have insurance or not by thier name when you look them up under information.
5 New Graphic Option, Interior Shadow Quality
6 New Bookmark Option - Choose Folder
7 HP bars removed from all ship information pages
8 Fitting window now includes DPS offensive section which breaks down the DPS amounts by source.
9 Fitting window reworked to have more information in less space, For example Effective HP is now located on the same Bar as Defense heading. Max Speed on the same bar as Navigation, Max Lock Range on the same one as electronics.
10 Show Full Body is now avialable on character lookups
11 Phobos has been significantly updated
12 Various other tech 2 ships seemed to have gained additional do-dads but unable to confirm. This was noted to be broken atm though.

Dust 514's CPM 1 Iron Wolf Saber Eve mail me about Dust 514 issues.

So many nice small fixes that have been a thorn in our sides for the past 2+ years... very much looking forward to the winter expansion.

Sure, there probably won't be anything ground shaking like Incursions or w-space introduced, but just the fact that bugs are getting stomped, small balancing is being done, and little improvements are being made to the UI makes this bitter-vet rather happy.

is it just me but have they removed the agent lvl info from the agents tab.. or has that been gone for a while? (the station I miss out of only has one agent so i don't look that closely.)

Yes, CCP is working on reversioning their textures and models on all old ships, partially just to look cool and partially to pave the way for corporate logos and ship decals.

Edit: I'm seriously running out of space again :(

I pared down a ton of unnecessary stuff again, and streamlined the items a bit; I've now got about 350 characters to play with. You don't know until you try!

So what are the Jovian CQ going to look like?

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!
