I came in during Revelations and found the same pattern after every expansion:

Weeks and weeks of "WHAAAA!!! This is now broke, that is now broke. I'm going to emo-rage quit. Things where better back in 1920s ...etc."

Followed by: patch update 0.1, patch update 0.2 ..... patch update 3.5 etc.

It has been an established pattern


Play eve for long enough and you can tell what month it is simply by noting the pitch of the whine on the forums. Last patch was a particularly notable vintage with a strong laggy aftertaste, we'll have to wait till harvest time to see if this patch produces a classic vintage of whine but the vines have been well watered with emo tears and fertilized with extra nerd manure so I'm hopeful of a good crop.

WTB link to insurance changes :(

Also why am I convinced this was (assuming it is) done purely because of suicide ganking?


dev blog with insurance changes

Suicide ganking with free battleships was a symptom of screwed up mineral supply, static insurance is essentially an NPC mineral buy order that creates a fake mineral price floor. The change is a shot in the arm to free market economics not a ganking nerf, anyone with a brain and production efficiency 5 should still be able to make money from suicide ganking.

I see Tyrannis as laying foundation. Eve Gate has a -lot- of cool potential.

OK, so sue me, but I love that you talk about it like a connoisseur about teh "whine". Vintage and all that being "Dominion Whine", Apocrypha and so on.
It is a good way to tl;dr sum up the moaning.

I look forward to the updates and expansions. For the first time in a very long time, I am excited to be a carebear (yeah yeah, tears tears). It is fun to me (for now) starting the path of production, learning the ways of the market "force", and generally exploring the game anew.

All in all, I know it is not as content rich, but the EVE-Gate will give me the chance to make deals while away from my PC, allowing us to atleast communicate. The management of the queue is handy, but the communication is much better than posting here, and being ridiculed openly. I think it fun, but what do I know Very Happy

*Alienware keyboard integration*


Really ? Who the hell has an alienware that play's eve ?

Maybe a few of you have the keyboard but i would comfortably say less than 100 people playing eve have a full blown alienware that isn't 10 years old.

The inevitable question is Why did ccp add this feature ?

I am betting alienware paid CCP to add this feature,

PS: My pc is far better than most alienware and half the price, trying to pimp alienware products in a DX 9 game is kind of silly I can run like 5 accounts at once on my pc, unless you have plans to make Eve DX10 or DX11 but then I would say less than 20% of the players here could play.

Again thank you its free, would I buy this expansion for 40 bucks no way in hell.

If you revamped all the ships like the scorp I would buy it but one ship and a mini RTS isn't worthy of a paid expansion. I dont blame you we are getting what we paid for.

Can;t wait for the next expansion Very Happy

And stop blamming all the fleet lag problem at CCP, it could be ur dam internet connection or computer that can;t handle it. My computer can handle it all.

Nice job CCP, keep the contents rolling in and hopefully the Walking In Station feature added soon.

I'm really looking forward to the expansion even though I have no industry skills. Its setting up Dust along with making suicide ganking harder. I'm sure CCP will take a look at the Scorpion and learn from it as more and more ships are retextured in the future. Guessing the next expansion will feature at least a half dozen retextures.

Nice job CCP!
