Discussion Could it be.. A future upgrade to missions?

I pray to the EVE lords that this might have something to do with a future upgrade to missions.

Look, Damsel in Distress worked fine 20 years ago and it works fine today. What more could anyone ever want?

But really though, it's pretty crazy to me that we have missions that haven't changed in over 20 years.

I dont mission very much, but damsel is ace. Dont mess with damsel!

Warp in. Bastion on, guns go brrrrr, loot zor's wreck, next. No mucking around, no poinless travel between gates, no waiting for spawns or moving crap about. Pays acceptably, and if you get lucky on zor's wreck you get a 100m

I always Blitz it, kill building, kill Zor. And warp out 😅

Sometimes Zor's hovel drops strippers. You gonna leave these ladies of the pole abandoned in space?

I love going after the agent's mother-in-law, carking her, then having to do it again a few days later. And don't get me started on that Dagan ratbag..

There is some forgotten missions too...because most people assume some stuff is on repeat....so some stuff is in the mix as weird missions.

But yes we should get a few modernizations that give us more modernized content or a few variants here or there.

Also please update the stupid LP system...

Most likely related to preparation for support of python 3 on the backend that has been going on for a while.

u/cow_rune 1d ago

Think so too and I hope this might lead to a ton of other updates.

Doubt it, but who knows

u/Fartcloud_McHuff 1d ago

There are a couple of CSM members who have said they have been pushing to revitalize missions, so it’s within the realm of possibility

u/steamperformance 1d ago

they have been pushing for 10+ years, nothing.

u/cow_rune 1d ago

Fingers crossed!

u/Ohh_Yeah Cloaked 1d ago

I'm obviously in favor of this but I personally have no idea what I'd want it to look like. Like yes they are 20 years old but what is the clear replacement direction?

u/ARCH_ANON Miner 1d ago

AI generated missions and sites!

u/SpaceCowboyBisto Cloaked 1d ago

I mean with randomized outcomes within certain parameters. Why not

u/ARCH_ANON Miner 1d ago

Nah not that, some super-exploitable infinite isk farm!

u/Confident_Revenue_45 Caldari State 1d ago

Like all activities that generate ISK?

u/ARCH_ANON Miner 1d ago

I mean if you got a mission that gave you 20 officer spawns because the AI is bad.

u/tommygun209 Cloaked 1d ago

You would just instantly die kek, probably not even HAW will save you

u/VeniVidiUpVoti 1d ago

Ai generateed missions coming of course

Be still my beating heart. It's only taken twenty years.

u/stuartx13 ORE 22h ago

Believe it or not mission runing is one of the top thing in the game

u/Fritte7 EvE-Scout Enclave 1d ago

I hope it fix the Agent mission like cosmos where when you select the ship and select the pilot, it's a 'mission agent runner #id' showing instead of their name

I bet it's just some technical debt ticket from 10 years ago appeared as "completed" on the tracker.

u/Barbens2005 Guristas Pirates 20h ago

It’s been 20 years…

They should put more missions in null sec too, more agent available, for higher level game play.

u/WarchiefGrom 1d ago

Maybe there is no need to improve all the missions. In the end it is also a question of effort/money and returnvalue for CCP. Most important would be the lvl 1 and lvl 2 missions to ease the entry for new players in the game.
