- Fixed an issue where players could install a Medical Clone in a Station or Structure without an active Clone Bay Service.
This isn’t a useful fix for players. Sometimes unintended functionality is ingame for so long that it becomes a norm. Players must’ve set thousands of deathclones to non-bay NPC stations over the years. I suspect Jita 4-4 alone had that many.
Perhaps consider reverting this fix? Or reintroducing the functionality? Please!

A quick note that there was an error in the patch notes and there was no change to how Ice Belts are spawned. Instead, we adjusted the rules for spawning Ice Anomalies which are:
Sorry for the unnecessary confusion, everyone!
i live in an ice system. if i clear the belt it can spawn 20 jumps away in a system that someone else lives in. or did i misunderstand your clarification? which, btw didnt indicate whether the spawn would even be in the same region.
Give them time. Everyone knows there will be a following unf’up patch of some kind.
some of the idiots in here seem to think that we walk away from our machines and rat the day away . initiating aggro to direct drones to attack is interacting with the client and with no auto aggro you do that for each and every target you engage. Not allowing assist function requires additional screens or alt tabs etc. to tell each client to target and shoot. highly tedious. no apparent reason other than to slow ratting even further and make people drop secondary ratting accounts. Assist needs to be fixed, if working as intended just tell us (and not in some obscure way)
I also ranted when CCP nerf those defensive modules but I realized ranting Doesn’t work. Now, I just consider CCP as an alliance in sisi that will mess up your game. I want to win this game whatever they throw at it. 
Quite unhappy by the fact that CCP dumbed down drones in PvE to the point that there is not much reason for me to fly drone boats as “conventional” weapons like guns/missiles etc. are way better and simplier in micromanaging such menial tasks as targeting & firing. Current PvE drone behavior now is perfectly describes “PASSIVE” setting as they wont do anything at all until you notice every little frigate around you, target them & hit your “F” key to honor each & every little bugger around.
I guess it’s good to have some break and go easier on gaming before focusing on training other weapon skills instead as drone platforms are obviously becoming inferior in PvE, especially for older folks or those who dislikes too much micromanagement.
And probes stacking up by themselves onse pulled up is cool feature. Seriously.
this is something i have used throughout my 4 years playing the game, im not sure why CCP would even think that removing it was a good idea.
Ballace after 10 Months actively biting with Myrmidons in Nullsec
Myrmidons expended: ca 200
average kills per week: 50
Engagement profile: 99% PVP ships
average net Profit per day: 150 million ISK
Ballance after two months in wormholes
Ratting ships lost: 0
total kills: 15
Engagement profile: 95% crabs ganked, 5% bushido honor 1v1
average net Profit per day: 1 billion ISK
Nice to see CCP got the risk vs reward formula down to a science and does everything they can to promote a healthy environment for economically viable PVP playstyles.
atleast the drone bunny should work in my opinion, now my 4 ishtar alts are completly uselss, cant even actively rat

You are the customer and ultimately that always means, YOU ARE THE BOSS.
Resist or Submit. Those are your ONLY options. Stand and fight or bend the knee.
If you dislike this nerf and other nerfs CCP clearly values, much more than they value YOU,
If you are sick of CCP nerfing everything in sight, often clearly either not knowing or not caring what the ultimate consequences are.
If you are fed up with CCP TRASHING time and effort YOU have chosen to INVEST in skills,
playstyles and activities YOU enjoy or USED to enjoy, for your own reasons:
Allow ALL your accounts to AT LEAST lapse to Alpha unless you completely unsub and next,
LEAVE them Alpha or Unsubbed until CCP not only either cancels the drone nerfs, AS WELL
AS OTHER CRIPPLING NERFS they have already enacted.
Ranting in this forum will do nothing.
Lapsing/cancelling/unsubbing will.
Arguing with CCP fanbois will do nothing
Lapsing/cancelling/unsubbing will.
Submitting like a sheep, absolutely will do nothing.
Lapsing/cancelling/unsubbing will.
CCP doesn’t care what you think or how you feel. The ONLY thing they will respond to is what
you do or do not.
Resist or submit.

This might just get censored, so if YOU believe, copy and re-post and spread the word, here
and elsewhere.
Now, any fanbois or sycophants who are tempted to argue, insult, meme or snark, don’t waste
your time because I don’t care about arguing, insults, memes or snark.
U, brainless, give back drone afk ratting!
well CCP could, they just have to make 1 unsavory example…pick an entire alliance with many botters in it…and instaban the entire thing and every player account in it.
In a totally unsurprising move, standings you gain (and gained in invasions Chapter 3) by killing Triglavians still only have downsides.
Yeah, I alone have set deathclones to non-bay stations hundreds of times over the last half-decade, for:
I half-suspect somebody thought that deathcloning to the more numerous non-bay NPC stations was too convenient and so it had to go. In which case: insert various colorful expletives here.
This is something special. Other games update to make players feel more comfortable, but feels that CCP is trying to make players miserable with most of their updates, I must say they definitely have a great design and executive team!
I tried logging in today did some PVE in Highsec. Ctrl, left click, spam F, Spam V so that Shardani’s mates won’t catch Me un attentive doesn’t hurt. It just made you more active which is exciting for me.
Wow, those implants. Can you visit us in highsec.?lol.
A healthy economic environment where players can find opportunities by making interesting choices is the goal. One of the key pillars of EVE is that loss has meaning and a state is being reached where loss is not meaningful anymore for veteran players. It is imperative, both for EVE’s success and for the well-being of its inhabitants, that the economy resides within a healthy state." Makes’ sense. Now I understand what CCP wants to do.
