We're happy to annouce that patch notes for the Kronos release, which will be deployed on Tuesday, June 3rd, are now available.

Kronos brings a whole host of fresh additions to the EVE Universe, including a new line of Mordu's Legion ships, improved solar flare graphics, brand new audio customization options, many new fixes and improvements in the little things project, the new Tech II "Prospect" mining frigate from Outer Ring Excavations, balances to a huge number of ships, and a whole host of fixes and improvements for both graphics and gameplay.

You can find out more about what's coming with Kronos in the Dev Blogs linked above, and for a summary you can see Part I and Part II of CCP Seagull's "Coming In Kronos" Dev Blog.

Details of the downtime for the Kronos release will be forthcoming, for now, check out the Dev Blogs suggested, and take a first look at the patch notes here!

As detailed in this Dev Blog, we're making some adjustments to supercarriers in the Kronos release, set for deployment on June 3rd.

As part of these changes, we will be doubling the volume of Fighter Bomber class drones. During the deployment downtime, if your drone bay becomes overfull as a result of this change, all drones in your drone bay will be moved to your ship’s cargo bay. This can prevent your ship from warping or jumping if your cargo bay is overloaded, until they have been jettisoned or otherwise removed.

As such, we would suggest that you move any extra Fighter Bomber Drones out of your drone bay before the release is deployed, so that you're not left in space with no drones to deploy!

If you do find yourself in a situation whereby your ship is stuck with its cargo bay overloaded, you can jettison the drones and scoop them up to the ship’s corp hangar or fleet hangar, if there is space available.

If you do happen to run into problems and need assistance after Kronos has been deployed, please don’t hesitate to contact Customer Support by filing a ticket under the ‘Stuck Characters’ category and our friendly GM Team will do their best to help you out.
