Uninspiring, bland and quite functionally pointless balance pass so far.
You are removing choice in the name of ... choice? And yet when your game is on the verge of having a fight to the death with TWO major competitors you dumb it down. Other games tried this, it cost them upwards of 50% of their subscriptions. Heed well the story of the NGE.
What is happening here is simple and easy to see, you ****** up invention making it too easy and accessible and you need to drive T2 sales to keep the invention monkeys happy. So you reduce the effectiveness of meta, you run faction/deadspace up in price by making modules that currently are useless usable (therefore making the nullbears on the CSM happy) and **** the newbie.
You also use balance on weapon systems to hide the complete **** up you are making of Interceptors. Like the Drake, you take the easy route instead of admitting your failure (another trait of a failing corporate structure by the way) and dealing with the problem.

So it appears Fozzie has gone into "**** the customer, I'm hiding in a box under my desk" mode. TL;DR for any dev who has the misfortune to have to try and DCU this mess.
1) Rebalance - meh whatever
2) Naming convention - What did you suddenly employ an ex Blizzard idiot and give him the ability to name ****? Seriously this is a SPACE game, not ******* PANDALAND.
3) No we do not want Panda suits available in the "Fund Fozzie's eventual move to Riot" Fund |

My only though now is that Capacitor Flux Coil, as it's going to be, will probably weaken active shield tanking as such fits usually use these modules (bigger drawback, but bigger regen). But... as I don't have EFT to check it, we'll see :]
No
That has been done before and fail basically because CCP are so arrogant they think they have a unique product in the market and can do whatever the hell they want. The fact it is a Dev Blog and not an F+I post basically means CCP are saying "**** you players, this is what will happen."
The CSM once more shows its complete uselessness at defending the Game from interference from Devs who are basically the #%$@ that is left at the bottom of the bowl after those who have the capability and drive to succeed left.
This is just the tip of the iceberg people, unless the message is sent loud and clear that persistent dumbfuckication of the game has to stop.

Amarrian modules Upgraded/Ample - Amarr Constructions Scoped - Imperial Armaments Compact - Zoar and Sons Enduring - Carthum Restrained - Viziam
Caldarian modules Upgraded/Ample - Caldari Constructions Scoped - Caldari Steel Restrained - Perkone Enduring - Rapid Assembly Compact - Top Down
Gallentean modules Upgraded/Ample - Allotek Compact - Chemal Restrained - CreoDron Enduring - Duvolle Scoped - Roden
Minmatarian modules Upgraded/Ample - Core Complexion Enduring - Freedom Extension Compact - Boundless Creation Restrained - Eifyr Scoped - Six Kin
The modules would get a name based on what race it belongs to (same as invention interfaces)
As example here are the devblog items: Allotek Co-Processor Zoar and Sons Reactor Control Unit Zoar and Sons Micro Auxiliary Power Core Top Down Light Missile Launcher Caldari Constructions Light Missile Launcher Freedom Extension Cargo Scanner Six Kin Cargo Scanner
Unfortunately that naming convention will confuse all those spoon fed WoW kiddies CCP seems to think will actually have the attention span to play EVE.
Stop pandering to might be's, pay attention to just barley have.

This is not a discussion. If it was this post would have been in the F+I section and made at least the week before thesuper dooper video of what we are doing is awesome that CCP released for the gaming industry monkeys.
This is basically the way CCP does business now, nothing we have said in this thread will make the damndest difference to their approach. |

That's the point they don't want to talk about it. Fozzie in the o7 video more or less stated that we will grow to love the changes. Which sounds something that a kidnapper would say to his victim, which might explain the grinning and chuckles given when they talked about using the word ample as a mod name in the video. *shudders* If they wanted to talk about the changes this thread would be in Ideas and Features a couple weeks ago. Not here.
Greed is Good!!!!!
They tried this, it failed due to REAL player action. |

CCP Fozzie wrote:Hey guys. Thanks for the feedback so far.
We're doing some discussion internally about the concerns some people have expressed about the naming. I will say that we absolutely reject any argument that attempts to claim that obscure name memorization should somehow be a requirement to play EVE. It's not "dumbing down the game" to make systems more easily understandable. However some of the concerns about the lore and flavour have merit and we're talking about what we might change to better address those concerns. Nothing related to this will be changing for Oceanus, but everything can be iterated upon.
Also, if you've read the patch notes or dev blog today you'll have seen that we made an adjustment to the Restrained Cap Flux Coil stats. We had some wires crossed internally and thanks to your feedback we've cleared up the erroneous stats. The Restrained Cap Flux Coil will indeed have reduced drawback instead of increased drawback. It will have a capacitor pool penalty of -10% and a recharge speed bonus of 28%.
Thanks.
Fine we get it. You will NOT change direction with the tiericide. Okay that one is on you.
However FOR THE LOVE OF ANY DEITY YOU CHOOSE, look at what you wrote, step back to 2003 and ask yourself does it fit. Restrained, Impaired, .... whats next changing pirate implants to " Crippled Implant of Speed" (Low Grade Snake) or "Very Good Implant of Shield Boosting" (High Grade Crystal).
This is where this naming convention is going, you are going to rip the heart out of EVE and turn it into yet another WoW in space clone. If new players find actual intelligence requirements and being able to READ an issue perhaps this is not the game for them.

Well, CCP stayed true to form and totally ignored customer feedback.
Congratulations Fozzie, you continue to destroy the foundations that make this game not another clone. |
