Dear developers.

New interface matter nothing, if there is no information behind. Half of new features haven't "read more" link, so there is nothing to get from that empty pictures. Price of zydrine and megacite rised up at middle of March, far before patch changes gone public. Some gamers know more then others and no one nice picture will change it. Old patch notes was more comfortable for me anyway. Empty ambitions to be cool.

New map is not bad. Gathering intel from it is. We still need flat, dotlan like, map for that.

Bigger feature? New exploration sites? Is it just an example what can you do with new release dates?

Dear developers,

May I, please, wonder why the "New Damage Control Module Icon" is considered a UI improvement feature?
If my memory serves me well, I cannot remember hundreds of capsullers demands in "Features and Ideas"
wowing to change the old brifcase icon.
Was this only because the new expansion required this or that number of "new features", or how do we benefit
from this new icon? This is not sarcastic, but sincere interest, I still don't get it. Do you plan to change the module effects?

Sorry for being this straighforward, but that said improvement is still beyond my udnerstanding: If it ain't broke, don't fix it

Thanks

You tell someone not to forget a suitcase, and they instantly know what you're talking about. Isn't that the kind of recognization an icon should have? Cerulean Ice, Professor, E-UNI

According to the patch notes just released for Mosaic:

Quote:
Standard containers in space are now also cleaned up during some downtimes, same as other space junk.

Fair enough. I use standard containers in some POS's as storage for certain purposes. They are free floating (not anchored) but inside an active POS forcefield. Will these be affected?

Thank you for your time!

Why has nobody from CCP commented on this?

I only got to read the patch notes for Mosaic today and ... surprise ! :

Science & Industry:

The Zydrine and Megacyte consumption of almost all blueprints have been doubled.

I had been wondering why prices had shot up without apparent reason - seems some people knew already - anyone feel able to clarify why ?

Great work on EvE Updates - very impressive site Smile

One quality-of-life addition would be a jump-list at the top that will take you straight to a given update rather than having to scroll in search of it. Also, for me personally it makes more sense to sort the page in the other direction with the most recent release at the top, but I can see the difficulty since you seem to have listed more than one update ahead of the current time. In either case the jump-list would help a great deal here. You could make it expandable much like the filters button, which would also prevent it from iterfering with the latter.

A more minor thing would be an improvement for those returning from a hiatus as mentioned in the blog: being able to set the page to start on a given date?

Finally, I was under the impression from the dev-blog that all updates will be featured on the site, but having thought it a little quiet, I looked at F&I and found 4 upcoming features on there that aren't mentioned on the updates site, (Sentry Drone adjustments, two of the excellent module tiericide threads and the Jackdaw), all of which seem quite important and in keeping with the previous posts on the updates site? Or is the site is only aimed at examining the updates post-hoc?
