Any idea when we're going to see an announcement with respect to Oceanus? Any new ships, modules, custom ship painting, etc. I am currently away, traveling through time and will be returning last week. |

I was excited to see the Overview Changes... and even happier to see a States Filter.
After playing with the settings... I see a problem. Maybe it was intended, but not thought out thuroughly. The States Filter, moved to "Filtered Out" Removes any Pilot that satisfies that states Condition... overriding, what you may want to see, having kept a State in "Not Filtered Out."
There should be a toggle or the whole thing better scripted, to set a "Show if State is Met"
A pilot can have many different State Conditions at the same time. So Filtering becomes near pointless.
Say You create a Tab with Everything filtered out except War Targets. You'd expect that to work just fine... But, Your Wartargets can also satisfy many other conditions at the same time... Example, While being your War Target, they may have a Bounty on them... They're mostly like have no Standings from your Corp/Alliance, unless you like being redundant. Maybe they have a -5 Sec status. At any rate, because a pilot may fall under a number of these conditions, if you want to see all your War Targets... You now have to include all those different conditions... Like showing No Standings... What then is the point of having a filter then?
CCP should have done it the other way around... so that ANY "Not Filtered" State Conditions that are met by a pilot make them show up on Overview, showing that State Condition. This makes waay more sense.
I should be able to select states that I ONLY WANT TO SEE.
Com'on CCP, this should have been a no brainer! |

Com'on CCP, this should have been a no brainer! that just so happens to be exactly how the states filter has worked for at least 5 years now, it has always AFAIK been an exclusion instead of the normal method of inclusion filter. It's a very strange way of doing it IMHO that I also think isn't the greatest but meh. |

I'm just enjoying the Holer rage in here. you don't like it, leave, otherwise, Adapt, like the ton of Holers who are. Fact is, MMOs change.
you're like those people who whine on the forums when stuff we get for FREE from CCP doesn't do things you want it to.
also, FYI... Goons have a bit less pull in CCP. the dev that was one is one again, and no longer an CCP enmployee.... and also before you whine about that again, consider the sheer number of players that are part of CFC. for those of you that haven't paid attention to Nullsec Sov... they do own like HALF of it currently.
Y'all are like the CODE tournament team that ragequit because Catalysts were banned. |

Burner missions are useless. Period.
Totally not worth running them solo, for the rewards in them don't justify the risks. If you run a pair of alts, fine. I would suggest tweaking the odds of a faction loot drop in them once you see how little they get run after the first couple months. early on, people will be doing them to find out if they're good or not. If you see a steady downward trend in their acceptance, you'll know why. the rest of the release ... meh. Really nothing much to interest me. the overview changes are subtle, but good though.
Hoping for more interesting stuff in the next release. |

perhaps some alt posters here should read the thread, and the isd warning on trolling.
point is again not that there was change, its the wrong kind, as far as CCP giving us stuff for free, i still say we are paying customers.
overall the wormholers are concerned these changes as they are now are detrimental to the overall survival of w-space.
the leaving of the smaller corps, ie. making it harder and way more risk vs the reward, leads to empty space, which in turn will make the pvp groups leave. etc etc.

If they are incurtion runners, not much, maybe a few implants, meta cap mods, but not much in the whole scheme of things. Lowsec/nullsec you have your capitals. capitals are quite cheap these days (depending on the exact ship of course) and thats mostly down to the blue donut. Highsec you have all your T1/T2 stuff and all your LP store stuff (Think navy hulls linked to faction war)
SO what does this have to do with WHs? Well they are the sole provider of T3s. Now if the changes ot WHs make only extrmely large alliances/coalitions possible in WH space, that means an enterprising group like, say the Goon (just thinking out loud here) can come in and take control of large parts of it. Lets face it, nullsec don't have anything better to do (points at blue donut and botlord, etc.). The goons have a proud history of making the market their pet (Hulkgeddon, that ice thing they did, now nullsec industry) so I don't think they will go easy on the ribbon market.
Granted this is not the way I personally would have solved the 'super hard to scan down offgrid boosting T3 problem' but if you suck at coding and make them cost 2bill each then their use will diminish somewhat to only the very rich, or whoever controls the supply, be that Goons or another sov block.
I'll check back in 6months to see the PvP crying.
ps. I have(had) an off grid boosting alt but he cant fly T3s, only Command ships. This character cant use links but can fly a loki. Make of that what you will.

This post is mostly offtopic by purpose. Ill reposted it in a sepatare thread in General Discussion subforum were it belongs.
I've posted it here because what I have to say may throw some light to the community of the reasons of let's say poor quality Eve expansions of CCP in last 2 years or so.
Don't get me wrong, I like most of recent changes to game mechanic, visuals, UI etc. but for a long time I have a feeling that Eve is spinning around not being able to go at any direction.
CCP have to make another milestone in Eve development of a scale of Apocrypa imo because we all get bored and irritated of that infinite bug fixing (bug creating?) fest we are given for last 2 years.
I play Eve for almost 6 years witout even a single day break in subscription time, firstly with 2 account from a begining and for last 2 years with 3 running.
I've done some digging in sh*t to see if Ill be able to get some info what the hell is going inside CCP at the moment.
First if you dont already know, CCP office in San Fran was closed and all employees from that location were dumped due to huge income dive this year ( CCP lost almost 23 mill USD $$$ on World of Darkness project which was shut down this year ).
This is what one of former CCP employee in San Fran location had to say about that:
"No focus or direction for business, products, or people. It was run more like a big boys' playground than a business. Expenditures in hiring, parties, travel, and global conferences that could not possibly be sustained based on revenues and loss of investment dollars. Simple math could project the last couple of years' lay-offs and end of WoD. WoD was used for 7 plus years to scam investors out of money to be funneled to EVE and to Icelandic leaders' hubris. The most fortunate thing about the closing the ATL office was that it happened before the illegal workplace activities were uncovered and claims were made. It may have been fun for some, but it was gender & sexually hostile and things went on there that no one should have to be subject to in the workplace."
A bit embarassing I have to say.
Let's go a little futher.
Most CCP's employees are complaying bout its Management lack of clue and lack of competence:
"Idealism (inside CCP ) needs to be tempered with realism and discipline. Immature processes and failure to measure twice, cut once has led to millions of wasted dollars, countless wasted hours and many layoffs that could be avoided. Too many smart people without discipline and process creates an over empowered peanut gallery. Everyone thinks they are an expert in everything and feels entitled to offer their opinion, even when they have insufficient experience, incomplete information, and are not stakeholders. Many of the old guard employees are complacent and overly comfortable, taking a nearly academic approach and more interested in their vacations, perks, and selves."
"An ego-inflating, can't-look-himself-in-the-mirror CEO. Seriously, after so many layoffs in the past couple of years and stagnant revenue growth, why is the CEO still on the job? He would've been fired already if this were a public company. I guess the board is just as clueless."
"Management doesn't have a clue. With 5-6 layoffs now in the past 3 years, and one disastrous decision after another, you can't believe a word they say. There's zero job security and moral is at an all time worst."
"There is a culture of fear currently present within the CCP offices, and unless your job level is "Manager" or above you live in constant fear of being deemed "unnecessary". Some of the brightest flames at CCP, some of the most dedicated and passionate people have been fired. Gutting developers and support staff whilst leaving the lackluster management team largely unscathed is a horrendous business decision, the failing money situation should land SQUARELY on the shoulders of the CEO and his management team and they should take the proper steps and resign instead of continuing to gut and destroy the wonderful EVE team."
Well, its a sad picture of CCP at it's current state, but it explains why Eve looks as it is with untested patches, bug fixes that creates more bugs than fixes etc.
PS. All CCP employees expressions were quoted. All information above are publicly avaible and are not Company ( CCP ) trade secret nor internal use only.

I have removed some rule breaking posts.
The Rules: 5. Trolling is prohibited.
Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.

Is this the reason we are getting ****** around coupled with plex price!?
Microtransaction man Sean Decker hired by ccp this time last year.
I.e. player cannot make enought isk due to patches ******* their income.
Plex price through the roof making it harder tobuy in game plex.
Less people buying plex in general for irl money.
Gateway for microtransaction marked.
Also game ****** but idiot at the top gets his business model implemented.... |

I imagine that you are already aware of this, but there has been a big increase over the last few days in the number of disconnects I've been experiencing. Each time, I check Eve Offline, and it's clear there has been a momentary server crash that has dumped 20k+ pilots out of the system.
I'm sure it's even more annoying for you than it is for me, what with all the petitions, but please fix it. Stability of the server should always be highest priority.
Thank you, Newt
