True, but it’ll be fun to speculate…
This is an amazing change, It’s a pain in the ass but its a good idea… I do believe that sieged dreads and/or triage should be able to light cynos to tho.
я зато , чтобы Сynos был только для Прыжковых фрахтовщиков.
Пусть все капиталы и прочее ползают по воротам.
Premium Extra - allows you to equip a T1 module on a T1 ship… oh wait…
Its getting harder to convince people in other games Eve already isn’t pay to win I’m starting to think they are right.
They are.
Pretty much becoming Pay to Play (compete) which is a much better business model for companies than pure Pay To Win - encourages more Whales to stay and ‘breed’…
Why should we have to Pay 14.95 a month for a feature that has been in the game for 15 years

Is this how your trying to fix your tanking Players in the game metric or another quick cash grab before you bail from the company??
I hate to say it but I think I would rather it if Pearl Abyss just took over the Development of the game to.
Cynos have been on the Omega only side of the game since the introduction of Alpha state.
Alphas aren’t suddenly losing access to them.

But characters that have been able to use Cynos for the last 15 years, now can’t… and it’s not as if CCP has actually put any 'kin effort into the proposed change… No in depth look at consequences, no iteration on the modules themselves, no in depth look at ship capability
- this is a cheap ass change
How about some:
a) better wider choice of ships
b) new ships
c) re-purposing of existing ships
d) develop a range of cyno modules - ship types/cyno types/purpose specific.
It’s just damn awful knee jerk pathetic excuse for ‘development’ - need some proper game development devs, desperately
Not that changing cynos, so they need more effort, isn’t a bad thing, but this - god awful

I like the changes. Using capitals, imho, should require subcap support, and it should be difficult. Supercapital ratting should be dangerous to the point of stupidity.
Cheap corvette cynos is 100% abuse of current game mechanics, and interceptor cynos are 80% the same. I like that using cyno now requires much more SP in your alt.
Although, why did you give the cyno EXCLUSIVELY to ships that already have cynos (covert ones)? It makes those ships the only cyno capable ships in all the game and kinda mitigates their initial roles to mostly cynos.

Its bad game design, not an abuse - something that has been in game for 15 years and commonly (and widely) used by everyone with a capital is not an “abuse of current game mechanics” - it IS current game mechanics
Now, recognising it needs a change after 15 years may not be a bad thing, but could at least be done with a modicum of effort and thought

Enjoy
While changes are fine in a game to encourage difficulty for vets, there is another aspect of it that needs to be addressed. People have to pay to win to adjust. I disagree with the timing completely. We need to let people train into these naturally (within 71 days) so that they can train into a Force Recon.
Creating this change and rapidly not allocating time for people to naturally learn it suggests a deliberate cash grab as part of the motivation. It may not have been the intent, but the consequence is the same. It will require further real life expense and purchases of PLEX/injectors.

Yes! You’ve described my feelings better than I did myself. You are right.
Right now CCP has been taken over by a bunch of guys whose hands are literally made out of ham.
Pretty much confirms it as a cheap ass (low effort) change without sufficient thought process - distinct lack of understanding (or giving a damn about game play) comes through quite clearly, that and absolutely no effort into producing a better gaming experience for players.
