I hope these stupid hangar floor decals and plate decals are not there intentionally. This looks ugly, half-assed and even worse quality than the already bad textures in the hangar.
I have to say, as a former developer, that it is harder to avoid re-introducing old bugs than it seems like it would be⌠Itâs kind of a âtoo many chefsâ problem. Itâs called a âregressionâ and is a major category QA people focus on. Really big software companies often have whole teams of people who just spend all day every day going through and retesting for all previously fixed bugs to make sure they donât reappear, but for smaller companies, it is kind of a tough problem (even though it sounds like it shouldnât be).

@CCP_Dopamine Would be nice if you sent out an ingame notification about this new exploit so that people actually see it.

I love this game, but with the new font, I just cannot play it for longer than 30 minutes. I feel sad.
CCP should also feel sad as they ferked up and refuse to revert to the old font., but they probably donât care one bit.

I actually like the change, so it would be nice if there was a method to choose which one you want, maybe like an option, as it used to be for people that wanted to try the new map or other new things that have been added. I find the new font easier to read for me. So, CCP find a happy place for everyone.
About the wormhole ore sites, I have to say that you really missed the mark. At the very least, you could have substitutted the banned roids with the aproved ones and kept the ammount of roids per ore site. As it is right now⌠anyone can mine them in 30mins⌠its really a poor design change. You want more destruction and mining ships destroyed, but at the same time, mostly for the WH people, you have taken out all the good reasons to be mining in them, so the result is less content for the WH hunters. Moon ore sucks, as it is in 0.5, so noone mines them anymore. But now, you remove a lot of roids that at least had some value. Cmon, its a small and stupid change, remove the banned roids, fine, but keep the ore site size and ammount of roids. Show us that your brains work as they should, or you will keep losing people.

To all Devs:
âThere is a lotâ âplayersâ âneed to discover on their ownâ
YA?? How about DONâT EVER call game mechanics an âExploit!â Example: If your drone stations are giving standings then until developers remove it, THAT IS SIMPLY PART OF THE GAME! And thanks to diligence and attention for paying off. I get so SICK of hearing about these âexploits.â If a âGAME MECHANICâ needs to be changed IN YOUR OPINION⌠DONâT BLAME THE PLAYERS with such terminology!!!
And btw, it may be a sandbox to the DEVELOPERS⌠and the EPD (Eve Police Department if youâre slow), but to imply it is a sandbox for us is slightly off. She skills frigates, I lose cruisers, he collects titans and weâre all on different teams⌠Still not sandbox to us if players are responsible for the insertion of such âEXPLOITS.â In other words, have a little ownership in your choice of words.
DONâT DISPLACE BLAME ONTO PLAYERS.

As one of the âold livesâ (by a considerable margin) I have to say that I find the new font much easier to read and, no, it doesnât give me a headache.
So, question.
How does one get enough standings with the Triglavians so you fly through highsec in something larger than an interceptor? We now have no idea where the Triglavian âhunting groundsâ are. Youâve essentially killed highsec logistics.

New font design does not look good for me, just logged out as it was giving me a headache trying to focus on it. Have played around with the sizes but still hard for me to use.
Very bad choice to force things like this when there could easily be an option for us that have been playing for a long time to retain the old font.

Have tried again this evening and still having issueâs with it hurting my eyes. Which in turn is going to give me an headache.
Itâs like everything is in Bold. This is probably the issue for many who is struggling.

Lucky you, everything is sharp in the environment , ships, stations ⌠and that stupid text is blurred. I have to force my eyes to change focus everytime i want to read something, itâs tiresome. And the issue is not my hardware, i use a pair of Eizo flexscan 32â and everything was just fine until that stupid update.

I must say that the new font is much easier to read for me. I donât own giant monitors and I always had difficulties reading the menus on a 24" screen. Thats gone now, I am happy.
Maybe the font should be user-selectable to fit all.

I canât follow you fully⌠I mined after work today just like last week. Didnât notice more than usual gankers or less than usual ore. Used 6 toons only as I unsubbed 10 of my 16 mining chars because of the ice changes.

The font rendering is terrible. Normal font is indistinguishable from bold.
CCP Convict strike again, making grind standing hell once again.
Thank you Convict for be such an interesting devs that, totaliy, have the best interest for the player
And not the money that Pearl Abyssal give you, right ?
Itâs ok, we in cas have found the solution to the font issue, you just need to type in caps and ideally make it BOLD & ITALIC.
I have to agree here. Since CCP branded it an exploit the Rogue Drone / Trig / Edencom standing connection has obviously had unintended consequences from CCPs perspective (seriously, how could you not see this coming? Are the devs unaware that there are Rogue Drones outside of Trig space?).
While the game landscape changes seem not fleshed out too much to me (it looks like Trig space would be too easy to control and â â â â everyone who didnât log off there and wanted to check it out now) I can live with it and see it as spicing up the game.
The fontchanges prevent me from playing, since I get headaches, but again I can interpret it as badly tested changes from overeager people to change things.
But branding a game mechanic that the devs fâed up âexploitâ and implying possible bans with that while nothing insides the game clues you in that it is unintended gives CCP a really bad look. As in âfk my customers, Iâm always right, banhammer goes brrrrrâ kind of bad look.

Is it a coincidence that the special offer to buy 3 months Omega & Multi skill ended just before this patch that has many people thinking about quitting the game?

Iâd like to report something.
Iâve started shooting EDENCOM ships,
which hung out at the gate into the site.
A Muninn and two claws. My hurricane defeated them pretty easily,
I gotta admit that, but the 0.003 standings increase really isnât worth the time invested.
This makes zero sense. EDENCOM is -10 towards the triglavians,
compared to -5 to the Drones, yet one gains far more by doing the even easier drone sites.
Do we actually still gain standings from running these sites properly,
as CCP SledgeHammer said they should be run?
Edit: Half an hour later and no standings increase from the drone site.
Iâm going to try one moreâŚ
