I don't think CCP understands the concept of Decision Fatigue like, at all. Not even in the absolute slightest.

I've looked this up* and apparently to offset the "can only fit one"-issue, CCP made the WCS three times as strong. So, as long you didn't want to fit more than 3 stabs, your heavily stabbed DSTs are still safe. Only the ones using 4+ are truly hosed.  *Someone on the official forums claimed

Cpt Soban posted:It is all they can do when it comes to designing gameplay for PVE. Repetitive mind numbing activities that involve waiting for half the time (waiting for your mining barge to be full, waiting for your ship to kill the next rat). And you need to repeat that again and again and again to get any decent income. I dabble in Elite Dangerous, and for the longest time I avoided mining in it due to how terrible it is in EVE. Turns out core mining is kind of fun. Find the rock with the stuff you want via a pulse scanner, plant explosive charges on weak points, get a satisfying explosion, and then you have little drones fly out and scoop up the stuff. I know EVE doesn't have actual flying of your ships, but there has to be a better way than just "set mining laser on rock, wait until rock poofs, start on new rock". Hacking used to be just activating a module and waiting, and that got changed.

ECM's golden age is still the most fun I've ever had in this game and I hope that someday I get to dust off all those skillpoints I dumped into it. I actually fit out a Scorpion that I'll bring out the next time I happen to be drunk on a non-full Baltec fleet

Rather than try and get the two azbels that were anchoring this afternoon in 3-D online passpi pivoted to an undefended INIT azbel in Catch and formed 800 for the kill, and they are incredibly salty that we didn't defend it, and as such are continuing looking for more undefended targets of opportunity in Catch rather than Delve

i've always wondered why they don't just anchor hundreds of structures all over our space simultaneously, and then i realize it's because they probably can't come up with enough hulls these two at a time pansy poo poo drops are probably the sum of their manufacturing capacity

MrTargetPractice posted:With these changes it woyld mean you'll 100% get caught without a cloak if both sides of a gate are bubbled. I wouldn't call that 'choices' Good. Unlimited safe travel without using jump clones was loving stupid and it neutered entire tactics revolving around blackops style gameplay. In 2014 before we actively went to war we had kept the economic and military hub in Delve permanently snipped unless you jump cloned. Judging just from forums porn alone this sent a LOT of their players back to the safety of highsec or the relative safety of provi-bloc.

I guess a fair bit of that output ends up in Jita, though - https://zkillboard.com/kill/92781188/

Good on whichever shark-eating cabal is at the helm of the game for following up on their dislike of heterogeneous ship classes and turning the game into Modules Online. Soon the fit-craft will be reduced to a single lore-friendly alien ship with a plethora of slots for active/passive modules that wholly control the inherent properties and bonuses of a ship. Want a nullified armor nano scouting battleship with some dank mining bonus that looks nothing like what its design entails, that's  improving the gameplay for you.

I remember a time when ship and balance changes would happen and the general reaction was, "This is a good change." It's been a loooooong loving time though.
