And so shall they fall, all who bear our mark. No matter who they are, no rank, nor title, nor power shall shield them. When the mark finds them, their time is nigh.

Confirmation: Jumpdrive-generated jumpholes will also have their simultaneous ship jump limit increased from 1 to 4.

Just curious, the introduction of the Deep Omegas systems also mean no more new Uncharted systems?

Uncharteds are unrelated to all the other work, as they exist in their own bubble. While it is true that working on other projects such as Deep Omegas means Uncharteds receive less attention, we are not done with polishing the existing or adding new Uncharteds in the future.

Appreciate the feedback, everyone.

Dear friend, the Mini Razor was my favorite gun. It's very dysfunctional now. Could you please restore it too? This is very important to me. I don't enjoy fighting like this.

The history of human thought recalls the swinging of a pendulum which takes centuries to swing. After a long period of slumber comes a moment of awakening. Then thought frees herself from the chains with which those interested — rulers, lawyers, clerics — have carefully enwound her.
She shatters the chains. She subjects to severe criticism all that has been taught her, and lays bare the emptiness of the religious political, legal, and social prejudices amid which she has vegetated. She starts research in new paths, enriches our knowledge with new discoveries, creates new sciences.
But the inveterate enemies of thought — the government, the lawgiver, and the priest — soon recover from their defeat. By degrees they gather together their scattered forces, and remodel their faith and their code of laws to adapt them to the new needs.

Sorry pal, that’s more Balance department territory than Systems. Hopefully this is another reason to make a balance dev diary @Haste.

Confirmation: Jumpdrive-generated jumpholes will also have their simultaneous ship jump limit increased from 1 to 4.

How's the jump limit going to factor into this? let's assume a situation where a person uses JD2 to jump to a different system, but they have three more goblins around them and the JD user said that they can take one more. goblins can't decide which one of them is going to go so they all press F3 simultaneously after the JD user. what's going to happen then? is the goblin that presses F3 the fastest going to jump and lock the jump hole out for others? or will the other unfortunate goblins be stuck in a docking animation after the fastest of them jumps through the hole?

Jump limit will be enforced same as now, the moment you F3 and you enter the now-nonexistant docking queue successfully, you already count towards the limit. So yeah, if a hole has 1 person left and multiple press F3, first one gets the pass, rest are left stranded.

This will only affect the JD are capable of multiple ship jump...right? ... i mean, if i have a single use JD, and i need to escape my pursuers in a fashionable way, i will be able to do it without them actually...reaching to me because of this qwp?

In light of the recent patch last saturday, no changes mentioned in this diary made it into the patch except one - the jumphole ship limit increase. Jumpholes on live should now take 4 ships simultaneously. The rest is coming in the big 5.3 update, still scheduled for April.

I asked Aingar about Jump Gates, did they also receive this change?
