Eve Online Crucible patch notes released

The Eve Online winter expansion, Crucible, will be released tomorrow - Tuesday, 29th November.

The full download client is 5GB for Windows. On Mac, that file is 5.8GB.

Updating Eve Online from Incarna version 1.1.3 to Crucible requires a 1.2GB download if using Windows, and a 1.6GB download if using Mac.

The full, exhausting list of Crucible changes is below. See you on the other side.

Critical

• As part of the migration of the Cerberus localization tool we have had to re-translate the entire UI, Notifications and Messages in-game. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, a small part of the UI, as well as content that has been developed by the feature teams for this release, will be in English for the German and Russian client on the initial launch date. Further details on the Cerberus project can be found in the blog Introducing Cerberus by CCP Shiny and CCP Ronin.

• We will be monitoring the overview settings during extreme scenarios, such as a massive fleet engagement, tensure that the overview will display properly in all cases. Should you notice any unusual behavior, we would appreciate if you could send a detailed bug report.
• Window settings on Tranquility have been reset as part of the changes to UI and UI scaling. We are sorry for the inconvenience that this will cause to saved windows.

Features

• Stunning new visuals have been added to Eve Online. New nebulas throughout space will now provide players with a feeling of real immersion and allow for a better sense of scale and location in the universe. As a result of these new vistas, we have adjusted every stargate on Tranquility to align correctly to their destinations allowing for players to experience a graceful transition while piloting. Players should be aware that due to the alignment of stargates that instawarp locations, or locations created close to an object at a stargate may now cause bumping into that object. You can read full details about these changes in the blog Introducing new nebulae into Eve by CCP torfifrans.
• The system map background nebula has been replaced with a darker more sci-fi background.
• Star fields have been greatly enhanced to provide a more immersive feeling of being in space. Actual stars from neighboring solar systems will be displayed and the newly rotated stargates will aim at them, making them visible if they are close enough. Further details can be found in the blog Asking for directions by CCP Mannapi.
• New art assets have been created for the Oracle, Tornado, Naga and Talos. Our thanks go to Alexey M, dreamwa1ker (Pattern Clarc), David L and Michael S who submitted the original designs in the Deviant Art 'Design a Starship' competition. May your designs cause death, destruction and sweet, sweet tears for many years to come.

• In an effort to keep tremendously large fleet engagements fun, the universe will slow down time in order to keep up with the strain of simulating many hundreds of ships.
• Read more about the details and motivations in CCP Veritas' devblog Introducing Time Dilation and watch him demit in the Time Dilation Video Demo.
• Due to the dangerous nature of altering the fabric of spacetime in such ways, the feature will be turned on at a slightly later date. This is to provide isolation from other fundamental alterations to the machinations of the universe in order to reduce the chances of total protonic reversal.

• New Captains Quarters have been added for the Amarr, Caldari and Gallente. Full details can be found in the blog Introducing racial Captains Quarters by CCP torfifrans
• Added Captain's Quarters functionality:
• You can now drag and drop your ship from my ships list anywhere on the CQ environment to activate that ship.
• The floating ship now has the same functionality as in the Ship Hangar view, you can double click to open cargand right click to open contextual menu.
• Avatar camera and zoom have been refined.
• Station services window again shows the owner of the station.
• The 'Load Station Environments' option in the ESC Menu has changed slightly:
• OFF: You can't enter Captains Quarter's and you have a static background image when in the Ship Hangar, hence unable to spin your ship.
• ON: You can spin your ship in the Ship Hangar and can freely switch between Captains Quarter's and the Ship Hangar. Note that if you do not go into the Captains Quarter's, nothing extra is loaded when in the ship hangar.

• All Caldari State sub-capital ships have had their shaders updated to the V3 shader set.
• All Gallente State sub-capital ships have had their shaders updated to the V3 shader set.
• The Apocalypse and Impairor have had their shaders updated to the V3 shader set.
• Four new battlecruisers, designed to inflict massive damage at the expense of survivability, have been released. Each of the four main factions has a new ship that will bring devastation everywhere it goes. The details of these new ships are as follows:

• The Naga was designed in YC 109 by the Corporate Police Force as an anti-Guristas ship, sacrificing the usual robust Caldari Navy standards in favor of supporting battleship-class weaponry. It was rejected by Hyasyoda management for being overspecialized. The Naga design remained in the Hyasyoda archives, forgotten (save for a camein the Gallente holo-series CPF Blue). In YC 113 the Caldari Navy entertained contracts for a new tier of gunboat battlecruiser. Hyasyoda quickly submitted and won with the Naga, underbidding both Kaalakiota and Ishukone.
• Battlecruiser skill bonus per level
• 5% bonus to Large Hybrid Turret damage
• 10% bonus to Large Hybrid Turret optimal range
• Role bonus
• 95% reduction in the powergrid need of Large Hybrid Turrets
• 50% reduction in the CPU need of Large Hybrid Turrets
• 50% reduction in the capacitor need of Large Hybrid Turrets
  

• In YC 113 Empress Jamyl Sarum I challenged Amarr ship manufacturers to build a new battlecruiser that would break the stalemate of the Empyrean War. Deviating from the doctrine of brute-force and heavy armor, the engineers at Viziam took inspiration from Caldari history. During the Gallente-Caldari War, the Caldari developed light, maneuverable ships to counter the slow ships of the Gallente Federation. This philosophy, along with a cutting-edge powertrain and ultra-light alloy armor plating, led to the Oracle. The Empire immediately ordered the ship into production. The Empress personally congratulated Viziam Chief Researcher Parud Vakirokiki, calling the ship 'a work of Divine Grace for the Empire, and retribution to our enemies.'
• Battlecruiser Skill bonus per level:
• 10% bonus to Large Energy Turret capacitor use.
• 5% bonus to Large Energy Turret damage
• Role bonus
• 95% reduction in the powergrid need of Large Energy Turrets
• 50% reduction in the CPU need of Large Energy Turrets
• 50% reduction in the capacitor need of Large Energy Turrets

• The Talos began in YC 110 as a R&D concept by ORE. Conceived as a patrol craft for mining operations in lawless space, the Talos would have been abandoned completely were it not adopted by the Black Eagles, a black-ops branch of the Gallente government. The Black Eagles stripped the Talos of non-essential systems and bolted on battleship-class weapons, creating a quick-strike craft ideal for guerilla action. The Talos remained a military secret until YC 113, when it was introduced into wider circulation as a third tier battlecruiser. Today the Talos is manufactured by Duvolle Labs, who modified the original ORE designs to bring it in line with Gallente standards.
• Battlecruiser Skill bonus per level:
• 5% bonus to Large Hybrid Turret damage
• 7.5% bonus to Large Hybrid Turret tracking speed
• Role bonus
• 95% reduction in the powergrid need of Large Hybrid Turrets
• 50% reduction in the CPU need of Large Hybrid Turrets
• 50% reduction in the capacitor need of Large Hybrid Turrets

• In YC 113 Republic Security Services learned the Amarr Empire was building a new battlecruiser capable of supporting battleship-class weapons. Determined to not lose their technological edge to their adversaries, Republic Fleet commissioned Boundless Creation to construct a gunboat to match. What they designed was the Tornado. Developed in record time and total secrecy, the Tornado is a testament to Minmatar engineering. Modeled loosely off of flying-wing designs of ancient planetary bombers, the Tornado supports multiple large projectile turrets, dealing massive damage while maintaining a small signature radius.
• Battlecruiser Skill bonus per level
• 5% bonus to Large Projectile Turret rate of fire
• 5% bonus to Large Projectile Turret falloff
• Role bonus
• 95% reduction in the powergrid need of Large Projectile Turrets
