The Gallente and Amarr changes seem to be going well from what I have seen. For a bit I was having trouble figuring out why somebody would take a megathron over a hyperion after the changes, but then I realized that the tracking bonus on the megathron makes a huge difference when fighting a smaller ship trying to kite you. The megathron probably could use 25 of its drone bay and bandwidth back; however, it the extra bandwidth isn't possible, it could do with just extra drone bay for a couple of spare drones.
The ewar bonus on the geddon is nice, but it might end up taking over the dominix's former role. |

Can we get some faction ships seeded in the test system? |

I did wish to make a comment about the whole "teiricide" stuff ...
I've been doing all these Amarr ship tests with max fitting skills, max cap skills, and Amarr BS 5 Realistically with the ability get into these ships with 1 battleship level most newer players getting into them aren't going to have level 5 skills in fitting and cap. I am seriously concerned that though I and a few of the other testers are able to fit them and make them atleast usable that these newer players to Amarr won't be able to. I'm just unsure with the extremely small amount of us actually testing these changes whether someone with level 3 or 4 fitting and cap skills are going to be viable in these ships. I would like to voice my plea for the dev team or the bughunters, if they have the ability and time, to test these ships with lower skills.

Do CCP Rise AKA kil2 understand the difference between online world, like EVE Online, and online game, like World of Tanks? Do CCP Rise AKA kil2 understand the importance of providing consistent gameplay environment for the players of the online world, that is EVE Online? Do Tonto Auri understand the purpose of this thread? To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

Caldari issues detected thus far:
Raven tank. It's bad. It's really, really bad. It has no staying power in a fight whatsoever and suffers in engagements where it may or may not be alone. It doesn't quite seem to have the right balance of damage and defense right now, it's base shield EHP nerf was unnecessary from the outset. Other than that, there are no real problems with the Raven; it's actually GOOD with cruise missiles in a PvP context, which is kind of surprising. Good job on that.
Caracal Navy Issue: Fitting.
It needs more grid. It runs out very fast with the six launchers and a MWD, leaving options for defense extremely limited (and ending up making it subpar in that respect to the Navy Osprey, although only slightly).
General problems:
Battleship MWD capacitor usage. It's far, far too high for current attack battleships to properly utilize their increased speed. It takes multiple cycles to reach top speed as is normal for larger ships, but the problem that battleships have that battlecruisers don't... Is that the Battlecruiser capacitor pool will last with the MWD on for 5+ minutes usually, whereas the Battleship gets around 2. This is kind of painful. |

That will not be the case. Given that ship balancing is one of the easiest code changes to make there is plenty of time to make changes before release. |

Why is no one on the test server? I remember large scores of individuals testing new content prior to previous releases. |

lame lame lame. largest balance pass in a large number of years and people are just ignoring a perfect opportunity to test stuff out. I figure it's easier to just plug the new ship values into eft and draw conclusions that way

Easier, yes, but also completely fails to address what's more important: How the ships actually fly. I will be on in a few minutes to further experiment with the new navy cruisers, most likely, at least. |

well, I tested out the Navy Omen in PvP, the Geddon, Apoc, and Pest in PvP, and both the Abaddon and the Apoc in PvE. If I haven't commented about it in this thread, then I don't see any real issues with it.
And if everyone is using Abaddon's with 1400s in alpha fleets to take advantage of their tank and yet avoid all it's cap issues instead of using Tachyons, Holy Crap! Maybe because there is something wrong with it's cap!
~Edit: Instead, we're going to nerf it's resists because this will stop them from doing so... ROFingL. Seriously, no, it won't, it will just make it slightly easier to kill, they will still fit it with 1400s because only a moron is going to set it up with Tachs when it can't support them properly. |

FYI on Duality Mjolnir Precision Cruise are dealing kinetic damage instead of EM. It's also dealing the Fury level of damage as well (525) instead of 375.
Also I haven't stayed up to date with the entire Cruise thread, but I notice the base flight time on Duality is 10.5s instead of 14s as advertised in the first post. So which ever one is wrong should be fixed. |

The stats you are referring to are for untrained cruise missiles and an untrained Raven. |

I'm not sure what you're getting at - you seem to be implying I've made a mistake. All the stats from CCP in the Cruise thread are base stats with no ship/skill modifiers, and so are the figures I've listed. I haven't compared stats with skills applied vs stats without. |

So much for being able to test these changes. moveme hasn't been working for several days, and at most there's 3-5 people online at any given time so you really can't do any testing.
These changes need to be put on Singularity. Module activation timers are buggy. CCP please fix. |

If it were a bit more advertised then yes. CSM certainly was, the way I see it you have to get the word out to your players in other means then just one forum thread. |

The devs will get cleaner data from fewer people this way and will be able to make some changes in isolation. When the rest of the features come to Duality some time soon we will get a larger group of players. That information will be pushed out more. The fact that duality is still open for those that want to test is a good sign. |

I login to the Duality server almost everyday but there is never anyone on to shoot at in random ships I want to test so I log off again.
If anyone wants to test some ships I will be on Duality at 10pm GMT. |

No one in Duality. Got a whole universe to myself xD The hot tub is cool now, but they poisoned it. Then they started clapping for the mad cow until someone sold him. When they died, they had him stuffed -like that water buffalo, stuffed-. |
