If this is the same art department that has neglected the Moa model for all these years would you kindly go smack them over the head with a rolled up newspaper for me? I would do it myself but I'm not sure if I will be able to make it to the next fanfest. |

We know that we were very unhappy with their balance, especially in light of the skill requirement changes, so there isn't anything premature about the balance we're giving the 8 base ships. Also there's no reason that dealing with the main group restricts our ability to come back to the others.
Honestly if the choice is leaving a handful of hulls behind or asking art to make more haulers then I think you guys have made the right choice.
I could nit-pick for days over which hull should do which job but when it comes down to it T1 haulers really are just a cheep way to move crap from one place to another. As long as I have the ability to slap a basic tank on and can move a decent amount of junk then at the end of the day I'm a happy camper. |

Special purpose bays - This will be for Hoarder, Iteron Mark II, III, and IV. We wanted to do this originally, but held back because of concerns about racial inequality. Based on feedback I'm now hoping you guys will be fine with this inequality, as long as it isn't so favored towards Gallente that no one would ever train another race for hauling. Just curious but are you guys aware that you actually have at least 3 hauler models for at least 3 races right? The caldari bustard is uniquely modeled from the badger mk2 and could easily be re-skinned to serve as another of these special purpose ships. The Amarr would be stuck with only 2 hauler models unless art wanted to be extra super duper awesome and give them a 3rd hauler model to play with, but it is at least something for you guys to consider when creating these ships.

Very cool of you guys to do this, the stuff you initially put on the table - while good - was lacking imagination.
Gonna throw one last suggestion at the wall to see what stick but, you could have ORE buy the rights to one of the haulers, say the Iteron Mark IV, give it an ORE paint job to go with the specialised bay and change the skill requirement from Gal Indy 1 to ORE indy 1. |
