Title: Vegas Dev Chat Post by: Kail on March 16, 2006, 12:01:01 PM Didn't see this listed anywhere, but there's a lot of very interesting stuff being said on the EVE Dev Chat broadcast. A few things that jumped out at me: -Apparently they're going to implement victory conditions for wars, now, somehow, which promises to be interesting. -One of the devs claims that there's a secret entrance to Jove space somewhere in the north that nobody has found yet. Sounds like something interesting to hunt around for, though allegedly they haven't done anything with Jove space.

Probably doesn't show up in the rightclick menu, so you'd have to drop a deep-space probe in every northern 0.0 system and compare the stargates found against the visible list. Ech. Not surprised people haven't found it.

Title: Re: Vegas Dev Chat Post by: Furiously on March 16, 2006, 02:12:53 PM I've wondered if there are other "hidden" gates for shortcuts.
Title: Re: Vegas Dev Chat Post by: 5150 on March 17, 2006, 12:09:41 PM I'v read numerous times on the forums of 'hidden' roid belts, one player this last week also mentioned hidden complexes
Title: Re: Vegas Dev Chat Post by: Yoru on March 17, 2006, 12:49:07 PM From what I understand, they used to be all over, but now are mostly in 0.0, as another 'lure' to move out there.

Sounds like something interesting to hunt around for, though allegedly they haven't done anything with Jove space. If there is, someone should be able to find out using the data dumps. The solar systems and their connections are in there.Title: Re: Vegas Dev Chat Post by: SpaceDrake on March 22, 2006, 11:34:36 AM Actually, given the amount of giggling involved in that answer (the Jovian one), I'm not too sure that was really serious...
Anyway, I'm trying to find links to the devchat (it's three files, each an hour long), but I'm being defeated by the forces of evil. I've got the files on my hard drive, but I lack hosting. Could an F13 member step up to the plate, perhaps? Title: Re: Vegas Dev Chat Post by: TripleDES on March 23, 2006, 11:06:20 AM I loaded the data exports into my SQL Server and did tons of joined queries to find jumps between player and Jove space. And there was exactly zero of them. If there would be indeed a hidden gate, it's probably implemented purely in code.

I will try to remember to turn on my ftp server and you can send them to me, after which I will put on my web site. It would help to remind me if you sent an email to my Gmail acct.
