queeb posted:i go tmyself to 1dq, joined a fleet in my newbie frigate, we all died horribly. Just got re-authed and flew a heron from Jita today to 1DQ while I was WFH (I realize I could have just podded down but I wanted to take the scenic route). I was expecting to get popped by a gatecamp or something but no, flew there just fine.

Coming back after 12 years, my immediate impressions have been that the UI is much improved and how ops are run is way better. To expand on the ops part, it's been great to get in a fleet, wait maybe 5 minutes for numbers, and then go to wherever we're going and do it. In the old days, it would be more like an hour before it started moving. The organization and tempo of things is so much improved.

I (overall) like the new UI and I think the skill training queue adjustments are good. I found the old UI a bit hard to read given typical station backgrounds much less another window open in the background. I like the colors a lot better. That said, the new one is missing functional stuff like: * how many SP you have trained in a skill * how much SP and time to the next skill level * SP/hour for that skill * SP/hour given current training plan They really ought to let you have that information with a mousehover and the average SP/hour be displayed below current training time Also, just being able to buy skills with a big red button is going to result in a lot of inadvertent skill purchases. It ought to have a confirmation window.

TheWeedNumber posted:How this was so commonplace I’ll never understand. back in 2008 or so we were deployed somewhere north to evict someone and I just started messaging people in local telling them I'd move their stuff out of the station. One guy contracted me a hangar full of his ratting gear and loot. This was after like 3 lines of text between us. It really doesn't take much some times.

RL analogy: no one was doing that much with coal until coal became much cheaper and could be supplied in gigantic volumes, if they remove the WH gas requirement entirely (it is a dumb requirement) and make PI more productive and deliverable (and make caps need less of it), then that would create a situation where a huge volume in PI is consumed in production of caps

I tried to multibox yesterday and even just using my one guy in a covops to set up a warpin for my other guy in caracal was not really workable doing it from my work laptop + second monitor. Chugged too much. This was in 1DQ so maybe it's better in a quieter spot. What's kinda needed is an actual desktop computer with 2 monitors.

stackofflapjacks posted:I am also looking for this if you find it? I just started in Waffe it seems there is lots going on in peacetime but it's been hard to crack where it will come from? I've just been taking cool sounding pings and finding people who FC fun filament suicide runs or whatever(tetrakill does this semi-regularly) seems like there are lots of bomber fleets randomly hunting enemy capitals. I've tried finding anything about actual sigs doing small gang and the ones that are doing cool poo poo seem to be the higher SP specialized groups. I'd like to get skills to try out pathfinders and I think Genesis squad is a parallel second WH group? Hard to gauge their intra group activity from quiet goonfleet.com threads. I'm involved in pathfinders and it's thing is scanning wormholes for reasons. For my role with pathfinders, I try to avoid pvp entirely. I have had one death there early on there there when I warped my heron to 0 at a wormhole (which uncloaked it) and then went afk. I actually find it really fun though to fly a covops and evade wormhole guys trying to keep people out of their C5. They'll have hictors at the hole with cans scatter around in line from other holes. It's its own sort of fun. I know almost nothing about Genesis because I'm not really interested in basing in jspace for the moment.

Feliday Melody posted:After nearly 4 hours of fighting across 6 systems, we held military superiority of the TZ and could pretty much fly around and do whatever we wanted. Which we used to finish some strat objectives. I was there for the big fight for TR07 on Saturday but couldn't be there this morning. It was the first time I had been playing for a big contested ihub fight. It was quite action packed in the jackdaw fleet - we were constantly warping around trying to put out fires around the constellation. Good job goons. Glad to see it.

But it will certainly lead to more POS explosions. the structure changes seems like it should make it faster to clear out undefended athanors and astras from undefended regions. forts and keeps would still have 3 timers. So, less pos shotting to clear out Omist but the same amount of pos explosions

The 0.01 isk thing is a good market improvement, I would prefer though if they drastically decreased the sales and brokerage taxes. I think the velocity of isk being higher would be better for the game.

We had a dread fight last night (that we lost). Subcaps in baltecs. The initial subcap warpin was hosed up and stuck people in this raitaru's structure but once we were clear of that, it was the best fight (as a logi) that I had ever been in. Honestly incredible fun and I noticed I had the shakes afterwards.
