?'s you may or may not know the answer to:

How long (estimate) will all race dropsuits? Would CCP be down for another optional respec for classes that have missing suits?
Did the office explode when all the bug reports and balance issues came in? Are features being pushed back to work on fixing stuff or is CCP working on both?

SoxFour!!!

That's exactly the right balance, good to see you never went full short socks on that.

Couple questions:

- When can we expect to see these fixes take effect? In the mean time no serious corp is taking new players into their ranks. Not sure if this is how devs want the newplayer experience to be. Want to take part in PC as a new guy? Not gonna happen.

- Is there a time frame on when EVE players can contract DUST mercs? ( Soon = 3-5 months away, not Soon = 6 + months ) and can you give us any idea on how that will work?

- The issue of latency issues in PC, have you guys figured the problem out or are still looking at it?

- How soon will there be 24v24 player lobbies in PC? If at all. Will map size dictate this?

This doesn't solve the issue at all. Put some damn Director Roles in already.

Lag is the 1st concern for PC not AWOXing, well that is what I believe.

there is a lot more you need to Fix with planetary conquest then that

Edit: Holy blue posts batman, foxfour beat me to it

It would be seriously uncool if you let this quickfix become all you do for us.

I'd rather you did nothing now and just continued forward on proper roles.

FC for taking contracts and kicking players from matches.

Squad Leader for someone that CAN pull people into matches.

I assume this only applies to Dust side directors and CEOs and not EVE directors and CEOs?

I hope it isn't a kick but a ban.

So you don't have to kick them then they just join again and again and again until the battle starts.
And the squad you want in can't join because they bad guys use up the space.

Any news on FW stuff (specifically incentives to play)?

Is it a technical or design decision which means that the kick-and-ban can only be applied whilst waiting in the warbarge? Because I a can already think of a work around to ensure I get a sleeper agent into the match to cause havoc (not posting it for obvious reasons).

So I guess that means I should get a CPM to rely the dirty method so you can reconsider the limitation you've put in place?

That, or start a blog.

District state upon capture
With the release of planetary conquest when you conquered a district it would immediately be locked and you would have to wait 24 hours before you could do anything. There were several reasons for this including helping deal with the release of all the empty districts and giving the people who just lost the district a bit of a better chance to attack back; the purpose being generating more battles.

Upon monitoring how you guys use the system since release however you have proven there are ways to avoid the second reason and the first reason is... well not much of a concern now.

So we will be changing it so that when you take a district it is in an unlocked and online state instead of locked and online.

I didn't even get any love from you FoxFour.

Anyway, is there at least a rough timeline we can expect the director roles to become implemented in? The "hotfix" is not something that should stay longer than a very short amount of time. I can't imagine that taking the way director roles work in EVE and translating them to DUST is that hard save for a few areas.

Also CCP why you refuse to blue up my "Tools to Succeed" thread? It's because I'm Minmatar isn't it?

Has the hot fix for awoxing been implemented (kicking)? If not can we get a time frame of when it will?
