GM Week 2026 - Call for Questions!

Greetings, space friends!

GM Week is coming up, and we wanted to do a community Q&A segment, as it’s been a while since the last one. The idea is to gather up a bunch of questions and answer them in a relaxed manner, so I would like to ask you guys to leave any questions you have for the PX team or the Game Masters in this thread. Big or small, spicy or mild!

We will then gather the best ones and answer them, hopefully in a way that you find both informative and amusing.

The biggest golden question.

Is ganking an intended mechanic in this game? Most of us know the answer…but some want confirmation on this.

Please be as specific as you wish.

Hey guys, you’re doing a fantastic job, thank you.

Are there any plans to upgrade and/or add new content to missions across high/low/null sec?

Considering Burner Missions were added with the Hyperion Expansion in 2014 I feel like it’s time for a change.

To start: Thank you all for the hard work you do for this community.

Question 1: What do you all consider to be the biggest successes, and biggest failures, over the years in Eve regarding changes made to game mechanics?

Question 2: Has the team been looking at past promises made to the community with an eye to fulfill them, even if that would come much later than originally intended, and why or why not?

The bounty system was removed in November of 2019, and is expected to return by January 2020. We haven’t received any updates since. Do you think it will be returning? In the past, people asked if they can get a refund on bounties, and were told there is no need as the bounty system will be returning.

What is the status on this?

Is this still the official forums? Or will people have to re-post the questions on Reddit to get answers? Maybe it’s a silly question, but the amount of official feedback on here can be quite sparse.

Which is funny enough, somewhat illustrated by the “welcome back” banner shown above your opening post: :laughing:

Welcome back though. And I hope FCCP will improve their communication, understanding and relationship with players. :grinning_face: Threads like this is a step in the right direction asking players for questions and feedback… which will hopefully be taken into consideration.

EMOO raised a good point.

Why do the developers prefer Reddit over their own forums?

Why is the system for deciding what is and isnt an offensive character/corp name completely arbitrary and seems to be based entirely on the GMs subjective personal opinions?

How does the system for ship reimbursements work exactly and why do GM’s no longer specify the reason why a ship was reimbursed or not, just some standard answer. Back in like 2015 or so, when you sent a reinbursement ticket, a GM would actually explain to you why it was rejected. Why is this no longer the case today?

Why did only one person from the GM team show up for the last local Reykjavík meetup?

Also, what kebab place does the GM team prefer?

What is the formal policy on reimbursing skill points where a person maintains an active account with no skill queue for a prolonged period? Many many years ago (like 10+ at this point) I forgot I had a 12 month sub running, and was generously reimbursed some flat rate of SP for that time when I asked. I have always felt bad asking for it again, or on my other accounts.

Could you clarify if there is a specific internal policy on this?

Question 1: Will EDENCOM ship tree ever get new ships or is it finished?

Question 2: Will the EDENCOM ships ever get buffed, or get changes to make them more viable?

Are you guys going to change poverty level in Eve? I want to get rich in 20 minutes of playtime then go do something else. I want t2 blueprints to sell for plex, make my $$ more valuable. You can make them available in the new eden store.

How can poverty in Eve be addressed, so our newbies don’t get distressed?

I imagine myself doing industry then jumping into an industrial ship and running industry missions. Why, I want a bonus that comes 1 in 3 missions that gives good amounts of planetary, or moon commodities. With t2 blueprints being sold, the demand will go up for these goods.

Make lowsec great again. Yeah, I get FW, and it’s cool and all, but it’s too easy to bypass lowsec, and this is kinda makes it irrelevant. Do something like XL WH lowsec/null only. Filaments can drop you in lowsec also. Key PI or Ore only in lowsec.

Q: When will Citadels finally get a good design? Because actually they are like 2/10…

Q: When will hotdropping get nerfed so people can actually have good small-to-medsize fights again? Yeah, thats the “power projection” you promised to adress…

Q: At which point would you consider the visible and growing mass-multiboxing (not talking about people with one main and 1-2 supporter chars, but 5+ of the same, just scaling power) a problem for the balance and ultimately the health of your game?
