CCP Games has faced a problem with the last couple of EVE Online expansions. After the goodies accompanying the launch of an expansion end, so does the attention of many players. The developers have come up with a unique solution. Once the login rewards and free game time run out, drop more free content. And so, I woke up this morning to find a mini-expansion's worth of patch notes waiting on the launcher along with a dev blog. After a quick read, I think the mashup might prove useful. So here's part four of the effort covering the Little Things updates introduced in today's patch.
The Little Things features are something that originated over a decade ago. At a certain point the developers discovered players don't just demand Jesus features. Making our lives easier gets applause also. The dev blog noted:
Today's release also ushers in a few Little Things to improve quality of life. While some Little Things are bigger than others, these are some of our favorite changes to make. If you have any QoL suggestions, head on over to the EVE Online Forums where we'd love to hear from you.
I'm not sure which change is better, making information in contracts more visible or being able to buy from more than one sell order at a time. I'll let you judge.
