GJ morons. Unsubbing and donating my funds to the RonUSMC Molok fund.
Seriously, you at CCP see a problem, and say to yourselves, how can we make this worse? Glad I don’t have to waste anymore time in this game.

So basically every knowhow explorer is going full pvp fit,less scan str, less hack str, newbies with wcs dying to a faction Scram. Forced scarcity in explo loot driving prices up. Loot tables on data/relic sites still broken. Crystal quarries broken af, half the cans empty or <1 mil, since 2 yrs alrdy. Why fix the problem when you can force an even bigger problem on top of it and have ppl think xplo loot is valuable again. 10/10.

No, but they are our voice, and the main issue is, most of the people on the CSM profit from botters which this patch buffs massively
Its something they should be publicly speaking out against, they are allowed to have opinions on changes once they have been pushed, the NDA doesn’t prevent that in the least, yet i don’t see any of them doing it, meaning the wrong people are on the CSM

Can anyone explain me the role of a deep space transporter?
Somehow I do not get it anymore…

@Brisc_Rubal Are you sure you want to be on the CSM next time round? It’s a thankless task, CCP will only keep changing things on us, scarcity, nullification, industrial. Where will it all end, what’s it going to be next week? I know you can only put 20 bubbles on a gate because that’s the kind of thinking we are getting from CCP atm. I shudder to think about what is next on the agenda.

Following my friends’ example and doing the sensible thing: cancelling my accounts, and moving on. I should have researched the changes to eve before re-subbing a couple months ago. That is my bad for not reviewing past changes (routes that now require 55 jumps vs 8 jumps a year ago) and planned changes (nullification and WC changes). Eve has grown into a game demanding too much tedium and effort (just keeping abreast of all the stupid changes is an effort), while delivering way too little ‘fun’ for the time/$$ invested. I’m sure many will disagree and that is ok. I’ve played off and on since 2006, I enjoyed the early game, but have no interest in ‘this version of Eve.’

If it was an existing fit, then it’s normal. The modules don’t get removed, but the game detects the invalid fit. Similar thing happens when the slots get changed on ships (mining ships for example): a module was fitted in a now non-existent slot, and you had to fix it before you could do anything with that ship.

I’m doing my damn job. Unfortunately, despite being as amazingly influential, good looking and smart as I am, the guys making these changes do not report to me, I do not sign their paychecks, and they do not have to do what I ask them to do, and often don’t. While I have been more successful than most in getting stuff done this year, I don’t run CCP and I can’t stop them from making changes they’re committed to changing.
No, they don’t and no, this patch does not buff botters, either.
I would be a liar if I hadn’t said to myself, especially on days like today, that I’m batshit insane for actively wanting to do this job. That being said, the CSM needs at least one person like me who will actually come here and talk to people, get poo flung at him, and still pass on quality feedback that CCP may miss if they aren’t paying close attention.

It’s a genius move. It forces scarcity by forcing more pvp in xploration, less scan/hack modules rigs, less loot found since everyone will aim for a pvp fit. Now the only ones using wcs will be 3day old alpha clones. Time to sell ur stacks of xplo loot at 150% and see sell orders vanish in 2 hours anyway.

Yell yea, imagine being able to explore and get some pvp at the same time, massive value and loot being worth more because the guys that want perfect safety are leaving the game.
Hell I ask for a cpu reduction on a salvager module so we can fit a proper pvp fit with a salvager for those solo frig pochven roams

Going to have to beg to differ, double bubbling of chokes reduces the speed at which hunters can move through systems, this is a direct buff to automated botting systems without doubt, the fact that you can’t see this speaks volumes

The very definition of a middle manager. Your braver than I Brisc. CCP with all these changes, should be rolled back because the player base is gonna get a lot smaller. Are CCP doing anything about ganking in high-sec?

Stabs only help with one form of warp disruption, DSTs were far from immune.

Spot on, Zoile. And not just exploring for fun. Who would want to do the Pirate Epic Arcs now, when that involves a lot of travel through Null to reach them. Heck, the new modules have a cooldown of 2.5 minutes !! I just cannot understand why CCP wants to discourage, as you say, harmless travel.
Lol after translating this, I couldn’t agree with you more
No, I won’t allow this assumption you and others keep making to go unchallenged. This rubbish, the way you talk about how more destruction is a good thing, as though it’s a given and it’s what we should all be striving for. NO!
Not everyone wants that, and my money is as good as yours. It’s always more difficult to create something than it is to destroy something, and this game has only made it harder still. No one is going to want to ever undock at this rate, and your precious boom boom will just have to stop too, because even you won’t be able to afford the losses anymore. Stop being so short sighted. Even gankers, whether they be at gates, or roaming have had it far too easy for far too long, and now the roamers get the WCS and the campers get the nullification nerfs. It’s too far, and needs to be rolled back, not pushed further.

CCP is Buffing … Bubbles, Null-Sec-Gate-Camps and Smartbomb-Camps … !!! … Further Strengthening Sov-Null defenses by Nurfing Small-Raids and Hunters … !!! … The only places that are still worth to play, explore and fight … is Low-Sec and Wormhole Space … !!! … Good Job CCP … good job … !!!
Well I did say “near-perfect” didn’t I? DSTs already get +2 (making them immune to a single scram). Shield DSTs could load their lows with WCSs and also have a significant tank, allowing them to basically move around with impunity in LowSec. Like, almost literally uncatchable, especially if you add the MWD/cloak trick stuff on top of it.
I mean you say “far from immune” but the facts don’t bear out that exaggerated way of phrasing it.
