EVE Online Dev Tracker

I post less than I lurk. I agree with the sentiment that “players just want fun”, but fun/thrill is very closely tied to intrinsic/perceived value of the ships. That was the battle. We are optimistic that the we can completely turn our attention over to the things you mention, meta, fw, structures and high risk, high attention and high reward challenges.

Thank you very much @David_Davaham!!!

Hello everyone,

We are saying goodbye to an old friend that is the EveSkillboard which has kindly served us for many years in the Bazaar and in other places. It is unfortunately, being discontinued and is no longer supported as well as it’s service has been disabled.

Not to fear, we are fortunate enough to have it’s replacement which will now help us in all our Bazaar needs and for our general use in all things skills related.

Please welcome Skillboard.Evie

Cheers to our gracious developer of this service ...

I agree with the sentiment here, the value creation is now done by more players, through gas, PI, which are not as easily scalable as raw ore. In some way, the economy is moving from a 19th century “raw resources” focus over to manufactured goods, logistics and specialization, i.e. globalized trade, which should be a good thing in an economic simulation.

This is a very accurate description of what the thought process and execution was, including the reaction.

There was a problem, we can’t go back in time even though the feedback was valid at the time, and the only way forward is tackle the problem and move on.

I just replied in general terms because I can’t divulge any specific goals because that would influence the whole ecosystem. Anyone can study the relationships and macro time-series and try to understand when a part of the game was healthier than at another time and come up with their own definitions.

Wrongfully quoting or falsely attributing to a dev is not helping your argument

I have raised issues with COSMOS missions before. I do not expect them to be fixed anytime soon.

My “working perfectly” comment was a joke, as I’ve been complaining that these have been broken for a while now.

Hey folks o7

The latest Community Beat is out!

CCP Swift is going to be sad if I don’t add that the the Community Beat comes to you from us here at the EVE Online Community Team to shine a spotlight on things that are going on in the EVE Online Community - both in-game and out. Our aim is to help you discover new parts of the community that you may not have been aware of before.

I know a lot of you were asking for updates on the Japanese 2v2 tournament. We’ll try to add the entire retro once that concludes but the second part of it takes place this weekend on Thunderdome.

Hope you enjoy.

We are currently working on better logging due to Quasar, https://forums.eveonline.com/t/introducing-quasar/, allowing much more granularity for analytical events.

Same goes with our ship data warehouse.

I think there is a lot potential in both using some of that data inside the client (popular fittings) and as well having fun with digging into the data for players.

@CCP_Larrikin is the fellow to thank, I’ll make sure to pass it along!

I believe we specified resources mined - if you look at the rest of the graphs you can see an uptick in mining for moon ore, ice, and gas as well. Notably (and intentionally) absent is event-resources mined for the duration of the Winter Nexus event.

Yeah, we definitely read them and take notes, but don’t necessarily comment on every post.

The updated MER data is up and available here

Please continue all discussion in the new discussion thread.

Thank you!

May take a few moments to update, but I assure you that it is there.

o7 Econ experts!

The updated MER for Decemeber 2021 is here! The Economic teams & our data scientists have corrected the issues present in the November and Decemeber MER as it pertains to mining values. In so doing, they’ve also added eight new graphs to better deliver and visualize the information.

Thank you again for your patience and understanding, these additional graphs will continue to be made for upcoming Economic Reports.

As always, the raw data can be ...

It’s hard/impossible to say “this number should be equal to X” and that’s healthy.

Going through the MER and studying trends can help define “healthy” relationships and boundaries.

Production outpacing Destruction, may be because of stockpiling of expensive ships but fighting with cheap ships.

We should also strive for a healthy distribution of activities, Looting vs Bounty vs Mining and their geographical locations.

A strong economy is built on solid foundations, previously we mostly had bounty and ore mining, but now PI and Gas play a bigger part. Its the same with Fishing/Tourism real world analogies. Bounties are no longer dominant compared to Looting (in ISK market value) and this needs to be balanced carefully. but also from a “per character” perspective.

Diversity is key, resource, activity, ships flown. Everytime an economy starts relying to heavily on one thing, it is at risk of breaking down.

I have relayed this to the team - I’ll update you as soon as I know anything.

Edit: Looks like Outuni was just stubborn and needed an extra day. I’ve been monitoring it and it has been acting properly

Wrong topic for this I think, but so you’re aware - you need to activate the nullifier before initiating warp, otherwise it won’t stop bubbles from catching you.
