I Been work on a idea for a new update in eve online I'll like some feed back

My feedback is in three parts:

  • If you want people to read your stuff, learn to English.
  • Nobody cares about the summary of a glimmer of a notion you got ChatGPT to write for you.
  • CCP doesn’t read or care about your ideas either, they barely have enough time to wreck their own.

If that seems a bit harsh, rest assured… my first thoughts were harsher.

Damn, how many of these “Hey I got AI to do my homework for me!” posts do we have to endure? Is there somebody we can sue for inflicting this on us?

I’m guessing you didn’t read it

It shows a lot of promise with some decent ideas. ofc like anything it’d have to be play tested and polished before general release.

There’s no need to guess, of course I didn’t waste my time reading it. Let’s start with the thread title:
“I Been work on a idea for a new update in eve online I’ll like some feed back”

OK, I’ll allow a certain leeway in English usage for non-English speakers. But seriously, a title that mangled promises little in the way of meaningful communication. Strike one.

Then a glance at the doc shows it was written for you by an AI tool. So strike two.

A slighter longer glance at the first two pages and then check the scroll bar… yes it’s SIXTY PAGES long tells me that nothing in here has the slightest chance of gaining any traction whatsoever. Not with the player base, not with CCP. Strike three. Over and out.

Take it out back and bury it before it starts to stink up the place.

It’s nice that you cared enough to try. If you’re really interested, pick one core idea from that mini-novel and try to promote that. Otherwise forget about it.

So you’re just being a dickhead alright

The best way to never get your unsolicited ideas implemented is to write them down in such detail that it would be impossible to implement by the developer due to copyright. Also no thanks on 7% bonus to anything. We only do 5% or 10%.

I think Kezrai is just being brutally honest. She’s right, no one is going to read a sixty page proposal, and she’s not alone in being tired of AI-generated garbage foisted on the EVE forums. I myself have a policy of adding posters of AI spew to my ignore list—because reading that stuff is never worth my time.

If you have an idea for the game, firstly don’t post it in General Discussion. We have a sub-forum for that. Secondly, boil your idea down to its core points and merits and try to keep the word count under 1000 to respect other people’s time. Perhaps then, you will get some useful (or not) feedback.

EDIT: I’ve flagged this post to have it moved.

moved to EVE Technology and Research Center > Player Features & Ideas

How is this ai i took like 4 days to come up with this :confused:

Fine, you wrote it yourself. Now go back, spend a day, and boil down your sixty pages to something brief and cogent that a reader can digest in about a minute. Post that (in an actual post, not a link to a Google doc), and people might actually read it.

Or not. Do what you want.

Tech 3 battleships would be ridiculously OP. Your idea for drones to repair your own ship won’t work because you can’t target yourself. Your idea for being able to field 6 to 8 drones isn’t going to fly either.

Blockquote
Instantly teleports all loot from wrecks within range directly to cargo hold

No. Just…no.

I didn’t bother reading beyond that.

ok so there a section on the drone a i clear state that it one * Auto-targets the deploying Bastille (cannot manually target other ships) as well as

  • Initiates repair cycles immediately upon deployment without requiring manual activation

why not with the mtu like do you not like getting your loot faster or something

I’ll pass.

A brief of synopsis your idea would have served you better to see it even flys would be better than wasting time on 60 pages.

there a new post for that if you like to take a look at it
