|
|
So, we've had a couple of days to play with the new stuff and lament the loss of Nano's. I wondered what peoples initial thought were.
Pro's
I like the stacking mods thing
My fast ships are still pretty fast to be honest, certainly when compared with others.
Certificates just has to be the CCP version of a Derek option
I'll get to fly other ships than a Vaga/Huginn!
All the lvl4 carebears whining is delicious, although my second account does that very thing to make isk for my main and I don't see the problem to be honest.
Con's
Messed up my hardwirings configuration which I'm pissed off about, now 3 implants I use all go in the same slot
Vaga's are 15mil cheaper than Muninn's in Jita sign of the times but i will find a solution for my favourite ship.
And I absolutely hate that new graphic on mods, its annoying, distracting and pretty pointless imo.
I'll likely edit when I've had more time to fiddle. _________________ Duty |

| what puzzles me is that they admited in one of the fanfest presentations that the UI a resource hog par excellence and yet they add another "feature" the activation timey thing to it. |

Agreed with you up until that. It's something CCP should have done a long time ago. And it helps immensely with PVP. You can stack neuts and stuff properly now. Best change in the patch tbfh. _________________

I highly doubt the timer makes the situation any worse but it is a fantastic feature. |

| I've found the timer useful when doing cynos and I'm sure titan pilots and dread/carrier pilots with siege of triage modules will find it useful. |

I don't know tbh. I'd have to go with nano tears though because of TRI/PL.  _________________

Did not think about things like siege and cynos, its a nice little feature, i found it handy with my heavy dictor yesturday as well.
But it should be a feature you can turn on and off.
On the whole the patch seems alright, had a fight with a vaga yesturday, it still seemed to be doing ok. But my missiles from my Onyx did hit quite well most of the time. on the whole, as expansions go, this one can really be classed as "meh" at best. _________________

dont get me wrong. nothing against the timer but they were talking about redoing the whole UI because it was putting such a huge load on CPU and GPU.
i find it weird that they dont hold back with that timer feature until they do the new UI. |

What changes to level 4s were made that everyone is crying about?
I can't get on Eve O from here and haven't been online since the patch. _________________

Yes. They do, after all, make the best anti-virus. |

Probably because it's an easy feature and rewriting the UI will take a bloody long time, knowing CCP. |
