I like the fact that EVE, being 10 years old, is taking a nice revamp. With some luck, in a year or two, it'll actually be a completly different game, with only some ship hulls being the same, but ith mostly diferent abilities/capacities in play. That alone will be sufficient to shake up the entire universe.
I do hope a good job is done, and that variety is added by providing for player-specific needs in terms of preferred playstyles and combat approaches.
I especially like the new ORE frigate. :) |

This is an absolute outrage.
I just changed my desktop background to a picture of young ladies holding guns in their underpants,
and now you release a pic of this big exciting chunky yellow spaceship,
and the poor young ladies are sent back to C:/Users/Benny/My Pictures for a month while the spaceship sits on desktop.
I wish you'd consider the young ladies in their underpants before you did things like this. |

Moonaura wrote:They need to have at least some of the bonus that an interceptor gets (reduced MWD signature) to really be more useful. The Caldari Condor and it's T2 variants both need some speed increase, as they are by far the slowest of any race. That would be 'Fine' if they kept the Caldari ability to be agile and fast aligning... but they are no better than any other race, which would at least allow them to orbit faster, despite the reduced speed. Both the T1 and T2 Caldari fast frigates have significant issues with capacitor and fitting when using Hybrids, a Raptor for example is hard to make both fast, and cap stable with a warp disruptor and rails and comes in 2000 m/s slower than the Amarr Malediction and has identical align time with a speed fit. The Condor should act as a base for an eventual overhaul of their agility or speed. But anyway, keep up the good work I look forward to the changes and using these ships more in Faction Warfare
T1 inty hull class shipes dont have enough capacitors, thats important too. |

Oh wow ok I need to condense all of my pure amazement at this dev blog into one post.
1st off great changes to the mining lines! I don't fly these ships much but I'm blown away by the forward thinking in their design now. Great idea, I hope we see more of that moving forward. 2nd.
Quote:Since DUST514 is approaching and we want to forge both games into the same universe, they will receive some advantage for planetary bombardment
That's amazing. Making one of the cheaper ships a main tool in DUST 514 lowers the barrier for newer players to take part. I'm really impressed, this is cool.
Ok down to some real feed back.
Quote:Burst still is bit blurry at the moment GÇô considered roles are mobile artillery platform, drone boat or a mix of both.
Maybe this is a good time to have the artist do the burst redesign? You could have the art tailors for the role you want it to fit. Making it a series of platforms to hold long range artillery sounds pretty awesome. Send this memo to the art team, work with this, you have a rare chance to make a brand new minmatar ship, and no one , i repeat NO ONE will miss the old burst model.
This one is important to me.
Quote:Magnate, Heron, Imicus, Probe: strengthening current roles as support frigates. Which mainly means scanning and possibly mini-profession operations, like hacking and codebreaking as well.
I made a huge post in F&I on this and I hope you take it into account. Give these 4 ships heavy defense. the 5% to armor resistances per level skill. Then give them 3 weapon hardpoints each, but no combat bonuses.
This would give them one tiny role in combat when they aren't out scanning. Staying alive. Being able to scan down enemies is handy, but being able to last until your fleet shows up, that's the ticket. Plus you even describe the ships like they are hard to kill with super advanced defense systems. Just listen to the show into on the Probe.
"The Probe is large compared to most Minmatar frigates and is considered a good scout and cargo-runner. Uncharacteristically for a Minmatar ship, its hard outer coating makes it difficult to destroy, while the limited weapon hardpoints force it to rely on fighter assistance if engaged in combat."
It's like it's describing the 25% armor resistances allready! Why dust 514 is on Console and not PCBattle field 3 sales Xbox 360: 2.2 million PlayStation 3: 1.5 million PC: 500,000http://dl.eve-files.com/media/1206/scimi.jpg |

CCP,
Please realize that players with higher SP currently don't like flying destroyers and to a lesser degree frigates because of the clonecosts , for me it costs about 50-60 mil to replace my medical clone. The odds of getting podkilled in a light interdictor is quite high.
Having high skillpoints doesn't mean that the player also has a lot of isk or some way to make isk more efficiently than a lower skilled character. Sure, I don't deny that it helps but having 10 mil SP or 100mil SP doesn't really matter for the income of level 4 agent missions.
Thanks, Red

One technical note:
Damping - reducing an effect, or, in the world of controls, minimizing overshoot.
Dampening - getting something wet.
There, I've finally said it. This has been annoying me for a looooooong time.

This is good point. I like flying with small ships too, but prices of my clone is too costly to flight with them in 0.0. Repair in 0.0 is costfree, would be nice there the cost free clones or reduced costs such as at FW stations. |

If I was a girl, some of these things could legitimately be called dampeners, but I'm not, so please fix these:) |

Sounds promising so far.
But, why does it take so long? T1 frigates and mining ships done this *winter*. That still leaves:
actually fixing them afterwards Faction frigates Cruisers (t1, t2, faction, t3) Battlecruisers Battleships and so on
Are we really looking at several years to get that reasonably done? |

The changes in both combat and mining areas sound promising. The unclear bonus on the Burst didn't sound too great, but I think you can figure out some near way to make it both good and not too good. But all in all; I love the little ships, and I hope the tune to them (and later the big ships) works out great. One minor thing the frigates lack is a logistics frigate - ie: a frigate with some kind of remote repair/shield transfer/energy transfer bonus. Maybe you can find room for such from your plans, now or later.
In addition to your "Barge in on me" plans, maybe you could consider adding specializations to each ORE mining barge/exhumer. For example like below:
- Procuror: low-sec ores (low-sec miners could use the toughest mining barge)
- Retriever: high-sec ores (high-sec miners want the big ore hold)
- Covetor: null-sec ores (null-sec miners can arrange the best protection for their miners)
- Skiff: gas mining (there is no gas mining ship yet)
- Mackinaw: ice mining (Mack would remain the ice miner of choise)
- Hulk: Planet Ring mining? (Rumor has it Planet Ring mining is the 'incursions of mining' and thus a fleet operation)

You call this balance? This is the lowest hanging fruit, the easiest set of changes to please the most existing and new players? The most key elements to vastly improving this game? I'm also frustrated with the slow pace of this rebalance thing. I think they should have an entire team on ships and modules. But surely you cannot disagree with starting with the lowest hanging fruit?
Getting new players into ships that can make a difference is good for everyone. |

PLEASE CCP :
answer me this - what do you mean by -
Covetor/hulk: ore bay is identical to its current cargo hold, little to average EHP, but best mining output. Basically made for group operations when players have industrials and protection to back them up.
please explain WHAT protection you mean when you talk of this ? remote rep ? a low ehp ship? ever heard of alpha ? pretty please dear developer that is reading this explain what this protection could be in your eyes ? we need to understand what u think if you want us to give you feedback

What relevance does this even have to do with their rebalance of friggies and adding some more Destroyers? Just because we got pilots with over 100m SP we cant add anything smaller then battleships? Maybe you should post an idea about lowering clone cost.
On a personal note I like theese changes and additions, even as a pirate I really liked the mining barge changes and that friggie does look awesome, almost so awesome I must have one.

use photoshop or paint or something to resise the young ladies, their underwear and their guns into a decal and put it on the spaceship. There you will have fixed both your needs.
