EVE General Discussion

Ok, this is the information we have in hand, and I'm tired of people cross posting about it in several threads, so time to consolidate.

Note: these are not all 'my' concerns, they're a list of what people voice as serious concerns.

1) Everything will be destructible.

I personally do not see this happening. It would be effectively the end of high sec, if not Eve. But in order to be able to both build and destroy 'everything', then, well...


2) Freighters are being changed in a manner which would allow cap ships to be brought into high sec.

Based on what we know this *is* the case. Several people have suggested that there will be a stealth nerf of some sort to prevent this, but it dovetails too neatly with number 1 for my taste, so we have to consider that they're going to change the rules about cap ships in high sec.

[EDIT: Stealth Nerf it is. Fozzie (and CSM confirms) states that they're going to increase packaged sizes, though under the new system freighters will, in fact, be able to carry more than they currently do (despite a heavy nerfing, rigs will allow more cargo space). Which makes me wonder WTF they were talking about when they said they couldn't do that all those years ago when we suggested it in the first place? Interestingly, the F&I crowd have come up with about a dozen much better ways to control 'caps in high sec' while at the same time, improving the market, if any devs reading this would care to stroll over there.]


3) More new content per year.

I'm not opposed to this in the least, but as an IT professional, I have to call into question how effective QA can be with this sort of time table. Let's be honest, CCP has trouble with game breaking bugs with just two major content releases a year. Firing off new content like a machinegun strikes me as being a bit foolhardy in that context.

4) the Dust debacle

Frankly this worries me. There's real potential to damage CCPs reputation in this, and real negative repercussions might even be felt here in EvE.

5) [new] The Freighter changes will make freighters even more easily ganked by suicides.

I have to admit that.... I can see this. The changes as outlined so far *seem* to offer a tank nerf no matter what rigs you put in it, or a small cargohold buff.

6) Breaking research and upgrading everyone ME 10 BPOs to perfect.

I don't see this as a problem, as they explained how it wouldn't be... sort of.

7)Infinite S&I slots. It seems there were lots and lots of things not thought about, like able to produce all the components for a titan, in a single component assembly array, in a couple hours.

This I can sort of see as being an issue.

I like Cheese.

I've had too many MMOs go belly up around me because the idea fairy got loose in the dev office

Did he really say two MAJOR Releases a year?

I quite like you. +1

It's always funny when people come around and say "As a..." and don't supply any proof of the claimed credentials as if their word alone means anything on the internet. I'm sure that it's somewhere on the fallacy list.

CCP did what needed to be done, now Legion could be quite possbily the EVE FPS that the community praises NOT the one that it laughs at. CCP made a good call on this and if people spent $100's of dollars on a game that's platform was near the end of it's lifespan than it's your own damn fault simply as that. #ERAofthePChasreturned

Am utterly rubbish at this.

Lemme try anyways.

The only thing that has been nerfed is reprocessing. I feel for the noobs here.

That's it.

Everything else has been given an opportunity to try and affect your market. Also - my Rifter is still a bit ****. I still fly them but I die a bit less.

Could I get a buff to Breachers as I reckon they should be more quick.

Also - while I am at it - I need a buff to the Moa since as you are shitting up it's natural good looks it should be better.

And could I get a Ten...oh whatever.....

I do C++ if I can help. I also run a SQL (Squirrel noob) sanctuary.
