Special Presentation - CCP

GAMEBREAKER had a sit-down with CCP for a special presentation about EVE and Dust.  Watch it below:



The forums went crazy and picked the video dry. Here's a quick summary of the basic issues that were touched upon.

• UI Imrovements
  
• Weapon range system improvements
  
• New dropsuit roles - Pilot (vehicle bonus) & Commando (dual light weapon weilding heavy)
  
• Two new terrian texture sets
  
• Engine performance upgrades
  
• Once-a-month "Rapid Fire Updates"
  
• Welcome screen added
  
• "Daily Bonus"
  
• Progression updates (mail alerts, corp battles, etc. upon login)
  
• New battle finder screen
  
• Matchmaking - Greater focus on team balance (gear as a criteria)
  
• Prioritize matchmaking with friends
  
• New vehicle roles ("Destroyers" were given as one example - anti-air HAV with faster tracking / RoF)
  
• New Infrastructure (Research, Production)
  

Do you think we really need an anti-air specific HAV when Derpships aren't even an effective asset?  Also, how long until everyone makes a crazy anti-infantry fit using these Destroyers faster track and RoF?

Commando dropsuit sounds amazing. <3 Lol. Any idea when this should all be released?

Sadly no, the next patch is rumored to be early July, but no one knows how much of whats mentioned will be in it.
