All I have to say is: Thanks for the >>>FREE<<< ship. I make use of it while I'm fine tuning my PI colonies, then file it away with the rest of my other ships that can't be produced. I now have a one of a kind industrial ship that will never be made ever again. The way I think of it, it's a collectors item that is themed for the current expansion. Be it a prototype or just a trinket I always welcome a new ship to my fleet. However I do hope that it will lead to a new industrial ship class with a similar role in mind in the future.

The time spent imputing its attributes into the game could have been spent fixing rockets. Which actually would be useful. ------------------ Fix Rockets. |

eeesh....and people wonder why the planet tries to shake half us fleas off it five times a cycle...
some random points:
*It's cool,
*It has function -albeit limited (can be handy for a lazy PI alt with no indy skills)
*It's a collectors item (10mil+ WTB's have already surfaced on contract system)
*Is Mostly Likely serving double duty as an idea-vetting-test-bed for a future, full blown ORE-gasmic PI ship in the pipeline. -based in part, on player suggestions in threads like these..(even from the ungrateful SOB's with zero imagination)
*Allows one to identify the most ungrateful sour grapes SOB's on the server..which in turn, makes you smile that much more when you pod them.
Lastly, -of course, it's free.
- -After 6+ years of playing Eve Online, I still see CCP as the model for which all other Companies would be fools not to follow, -in any industry.
In this day and age, it is rare to find an entity such as CCP that has not thrown both, it's clients and employees to the wolves in pursuit of power, control, "pie in the sky profits," -and flat out global conquest at any cost.
Eve-Online is and always will be, a living, breathing Art-Form unto itself.
Appreciate the vision and "escape to alternate realities" that the CCP Team has always worked very hard to provide us over the years.
For as it has always been in the Space of New Eden, -not all, is as it seems..
Many thanks CCP,
-ankanos

No it's not. You pay CCP 15 bucks a month. They could have spent artist time, dev time and testing time on something that would materially add to the game.
The Primae is not 'free' by any means.
It's a damn cool model and it's totally wasted on a nearly useless piece of art.
They could have unveiled a Sansha's Nation Dreadnought to tie in with the current metaplot. Or just made the Primae Mk II and spawn BPOs.

To all the people claiming it's free...
So what ? It's a gift that everyone thought that we would like, then it turned out to be WORTHLESS and USELESS.
I would rather have NOTHING than a waste of hangar space and a compleate waste of art/dev. time spent on a crap ship.
Before you claim its free again... even the cov ops frig we got was usefull, since sleepers wont attack it. It has a purpuse and has it's limited niche.
This ship has nothing than a FREE (if you run tuturials) industrial ship has. Its heavyer, cant fit cloak or cargo expanders (since they wont encrease the size of the PI bay's its pointless)
To sum it up - why waste the time and efford to make this crap - when a badger 1 is 100000 times more usefull for PI ?

Ninja yourself into NPC 0.0 space in a frig on a PI alt, then redeem the ship and sell your products to the market there. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- you seem determined to turn it into ******* Hollyoaks for neckbeards. |

I like - actually I love - the design of the ship model. ORE ships have this very distinct look to them and I'm glad we have been given this opportunity to see this look expressed in an exciting new form.
However, I can't help but feel the Primae could've been given slightly more functional capabilities to match the aesthetic ones - without compromising game balance.
I am optimistic though, as when I read the introductory blog I was given the impression that this ship will be player produced at a later date - or so I hope. If that is the case then "ORE" has time to optimize the Primae before widescale release.
If that isn't the case then so be it, though. The Primae is, at least, nice to look at.

I agree with others in that every ship should have some useful purpose. The Apotheosis works as "cool looking" shuttle, and that's exactly what I use it for. The Zephyr has it's purpose in exploring wormholes, but the Primae is absolutely useless. Why waste art developer time to create something that no one will use? It's time that could have been better used for something else in my opinion. If a ship does not serve a useful purpose, even if it's free... it's a waste of developer time.
End of story. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [GNSTR]

As others have said this ship / hull would be an excelent starting point for a T3 industrial. Base ship is free (no reason to overheat a salvager/cargobay or mining laser) so bonus per skill level is moot.
Then you train up Ore "X" systems for it's subsystem slots. Slap it up on the market with the addition of subsystem slots. Add skill books for the use of these subsystems and blue prints for the creation of them.

Hey, CCP just gave me 5 free days on my accounts which had been inactive for 6 months, AND this cool new ship.
Why do people have the gall to gripe about free stuff?
Thanks CCP, and I'm probably gonna resubscribe on at least 2 of my subs now.
I love this game, and it's developers! Sarcasm - Because i'm too far away to strangle you. |

I say, thats the only ORE ship I have, since Im combat focused, but well its kinda refreshing flying it for some PI.
Like it was said on the first pages, its a free gift from ORE for PI duties. Doesnt have to be top-of-line. Moreover storyline tells the ship wasnt even built for that purpose, it was a salvager that was repurposed. ---

Although I'm aware the ship is free and that you didn't want to devalue anyone owning an industrial ship; while allowing everyone new and old users to use the Primae, I think that there is a very strong concensus that everyone REALLY likes the look of the Primae.
Honestly I can't blame them, it is beauty to look at in-game and having exported it using TriExporter it is just as gorgeous "under the hood" so to speak. Absolutely beautiful modeling and material job.
Still I have a suggestion that I think everyone might like. How about the Primae we all currently have, which let's be honest has it's uses for those who just want to to tinker with Planetry Interaction and strip it down. Make it look like ORE have properly repurposed the hull by stripping out the main cargo leaving sort of scaffolding in the center with the sides looking like they're where you store your planetry commodities and equippment.
This would justify the size and keep it looking nice, but then release the Primae we currently have still with a focus on being a "Planetry Interaction" so keeping the seperate holds; but increase the main hold, give it some mining, salvaging and industrial bonus' as a ship for the general population via blueprints.
I mean we have the Orca and Rorqual, both are very effective industrial and great as mining foremans; why not have the Primae (current model) used as a Sub-Captial variation of that ship. As such not requiring as many skills but trade off is not having anywhere near the same sorta capacity or specialisation.

There's a lot of ratters and mission-runners who'd wet their pants over a dedicated salvage boat, especially one as good-looking as the Primae. I find that more interesting than a dedicated PI boat, since I can't think of anything a PI boat could do that a hauler couldn't. Either way, though, count me among those who'd like to see the Primae model reused for something besides a hangar queen.
Of course, a dedicated salvage boat would leave the poor destroyers even more neglected.
