Fleet Warp Changes not being added with Vanguard release

September 7, 2015

In a post by CCP Larrikin on the eve online forums here he announced the following:

 

Hi Internet Space Pilots,

We’re not releasing the proposed fleet warp changes with the Vanguard release. The implementation of the fleet-based bookmarks is more technically costly that we had hoped. We’re not prepared to release this version of the warp changes without the fleet bookmark system.

Regarding fleet warps, we’re going to look at alternative design solutions. We would like to incentivize players rather than remove existing functionality.
Regarding bookmarks, there are very early plans for a technical redesign. This should lead to many advantages, including (but not limited too) fleet bookmarks.

We appreciate the passionate feedback from the community regarding this issue.

Cheers,
CCP Larrikin

 

CCP has opted to hold off on their changes regarding fleet warps. The proposed changes made it so that a fleet commander could only fleet warp to celestials, not bookmarks nor probed targets. There had been some complaints from the nullsec community. Even more so the wormhole community who rely on bookmarks more so than any other group. CCP is showing that they are willing to listen to player input, recognize the issues and adapt their policies to represent that.
