EVE General Discussion

The way CCP works, it may end up being something along the lines of someone with no knowledge of how it was intended to work happened upon the code and said to self:

"Wait. What is this? This isn't working right! I'd better fix it right now."

ROFLMAO

either they knew and lied knowing that the big alliances would figure it out fairly quickly - look realy silly

or

Forgot to change code to allow it OR discovered they couldn't get it to work that way and said nothing - ROFLMAO

either way how can any response NOT make them look idiotic? It was a KEY feature of the release FFS.

Talk about timing as well, they have a a twitch stream due to tell us the new niceness in Hyperion, this really instills confidence

I lost confidence in CCP a long time ago. It was about the time they moved John Lander (CCP Unifex) sideways to a dead end job.

It's not in patch notes. So it didn't make it in. That's the best indication that their intent changed. Tough nuggets.

Almost, yeah.

I did not read the entire thread, too much 'grrr goons' and too long. But as a bitter vet, go me, I can post anywhere so here goes, I want to address this:




The econ warrior;s post is asking about alchemy, as in why is this not going to effect alchemy. He gets a response that this is the basic model and they will look at alchemy later. That's it. That's all that linked post says. Nothing more.

The Dev post on the other hand, is hard to descypher without context. He is etiehr saying that they know it shows up in the api, or he is talking about they they will hide it in the api, i'm unsure.

The question, and if this was answered I did not look for it, is when was this discovered. If it was in from day one and reposrted and CCP said meh, then its not a problem. If this happened after the kronos changes, then there could be a glitch. IDK. I just find it funny that everyone thinks ccp bows to goons, when a few years ago everyone thought ccp bows to bob. You all are insane.

The point is, report it. if ccp says its an exploit then it is. If they say not to worry, then its intended. Simple as that.

API coverage of hostile siphon activities for starters. You really do make this too easy.

Here. Join James in the dunk bin. \_/

I like this "I'm right because I'm right" thing you've got going.

It's about as good as "we're right because we say we are" from the other side of the argument...

We are supposed to assume their design direction changed when something is not working as it was previously described? So for example it should of been accepted as correct for worm drones to keep their bonus when going from a ship to another since nobody from CCP said the drone should have it's value reset?

You are basically saying every single bug in the game should be used because CCP obviously never mentioned a mechanic was not supposed to work that way and even if they did, then it gets a free pass because they somehow might have changed their mind? What's the point of asking people to report bug when they think there might be one if the course of action is to effectively use it because it might be intended even if it makes no sense at all to be this way?
