Filed UnderPatches PC

A new Eve patch has gone live and it’s a big one. CCP’s aim has been to re-balance all the current tier one ships within the game, 9 have been changed in this patch. Modules also get a makeover in the user interface department and some balancing as well. A new skill named “Armor Honeycombing” has been added which “This skill reduces the mass penalty of all armor plates by 5% per level.” with the requirements of  “Rank 3 Intelligence / Memory skill and requires Mechanics 3 to train.”

Full patch notes below: 

Features

Info Panels – Dev blog

  • All Info Panels are now split into separate panels with their own identity icon
  • Each Panel can be customized into 3 different states:
    • Collapsed – By clicking the Icon in the top left corner
      • Panels that are collapsed can still be used by hovering the icon of each tab in their collapsed state. This allows players to interact with the full content of the tab in a tooltip
    • Normal – Normal state showing all content of the panel
    • Compact – Only showing the header of the panel with essential information
  • The order of the Panels can be customized by dragging the icons at the top of the screen
  • Panel setup and order is unique to each view state. These view states are:
    • Docked in stations (Captain’s Quarters and Ship Hangar)
    • In space
    • Star map
    • Solar system map
    • Planetary interaction
  • Each view state has a predefined default set up for the Info Panels and their order. These can be customized and will persist between game sessions.
  • Moved all Route Settings for Autopilot into the Autopilot Panel
  • Added an Autopilot Route Visualizer into the space scene. This option is turned on by default but can be turned off in the Autopilot Route settings utility menu
  • Updated the Incursion Panel to make it consistent with other panels regarding visual style of icons, fonts and colors
  • Updated the Factional Warfare Panel to make it consistent with other panels regarding visual style of icons, fonts and colors

Modules

  • The new Ancillary Armor Repairer (AAR) module has been added to the game to provide more options for active armor tanking.
    • The AAR always uses the same cap as a normal (T1/T2/Named) Armor Repper.
    • When not loaded with Nanite Repair Paste, the AAR has 3/4 the rep amount as a T1 Armor Repairer.
    • When loaded with Nanite Repair Paste, the AAR triples the rep amount (repairs 2.25x a T1 repairer when loaded).
    • The AAR has the same cycle time and fittings as T1 reps.
    • The Small AAR uses 1 paste per cycle, Medium AAR 4 and Large AAR 8. The AAR can hold 8 cycles worth of paste at a time. Reload time is 1 minute just like an ASB, but the longer cycle time of armor reps means it goes longer between reloads.
    • Limited to one per ship.

Skills

  • New skill Armor Honeycombing has been added.
    • This skill reduces the mass penalty of all armor plates by 5% per level.
    • It is a Rank 3 Intelligence / Memory skill and requires Mechanics 3 to train.

Art

  • Old, classic legacy code was removed.
  • Optimized Shaders are introduced for V3 materials.
  • V3 materials now support multiple glow areas.
  • V3 Materials now support mipmaps for blurred reflection.
  • The Tempest, Vargur, Stabber and Vagabond now use extra glow areas for engine effect.

Miscellaneous

  • Crimewatch: Dueling – Dev blog, In-development video
    • In High/Low security space, pairs of characters can agree to flag themselves to each other in a Limited Engagement, so they may legally fight each other.
    • To issue a duel challenge, both characters must be located in the same location (either the same station or the same solarsystem space).
    • Adding a character as a Blocked contact will automatically prevent that character from challenging you.
    • Duel challenges can be globally blocked in the ESC menu by checking the “Dueling – Auto Reject Invitation” option. This setting is per-character and is saved on the server.

CHANGES

Miscellaneous

  • Shooting a wormhole will no longer display the “Proceed with this dangerous act?” dialog.
  • A Limited Engagement is now triggered whenever anyone attacks a global target (suspect/criminal/outlaw) who is otherwise not a legal target. Previously global targets could legally attack each other without a Limited Engagement being created.
  • The notification when a capsuleer attempts to place items into a freight container has been updated to be more accurate.
  • Added ~230 new module tooltips in order to make sure all active modules have useful tooltips.
  • Module tooltips have been added to the fitting window.
  • The Log no longer clears after session changes such as jumping/docking etc.
  • Ship is now included in the folder created when a fitting is dragged onto the Market Quickbar.
  • The windows to modify corporation and alliance details windows are no longer modal, allowing links to be included in the description.
  • More options have been added to customize the combat messages in space.

New Corporation Recruitment Management

  • New Statuses so that applications can be tracked easier and lend greater control to applicants throughout the recruitment process
    • Unprocessed – Application has been sent to the corporation for review
    • Invited to join – Application was accepted by the corporation and an invitation has been extended to the player allowing them to join
    • Rejected – Application was rejected by the corporation
    • Accepted – Player has accepted an invitation to join the corporation and has joined it
    • Withdrawn – Player has withdrawn the application, which can be done at any time
    • Welcome Mails are a new addition which can be customized and are sent automatically to new corporation members on joining
    • Added “Bounty Hunting” as an activity for adverts and search.

Ships – Dev blog The formerly Tier 1 and Tier 2 Battlecruisers have been rebalanced and rebranded as Combat Battlecruisers as part of the Tiericide Initiative. They have had their attributes and fittings adjusted to ensure that they all have viable and balanced roles. As a part of these changes, extra materials have been added to the build requirements of several Battlecruisers. These extra materials do not return when the ships are reprocessed.
