Exploration & Deadspace
GÇó Some DED 3/10 sites allowed battleships to enter, now they cannot
Was the intention to not allow Battlecruisers too ?
e.g
Angel repurposed outpost will now not allow a hurricane, yet it willl allow a loki or tengu and other strategic cruisers.
Seems pretty silly TBH |

Seems pretty silly TBH Assuming the old DED size limits are still in place, a 3/10 should at maximum allow cruiser sized ships, 4/10s allow BCs and 5/10s allows BSs. So it might be a case of working as intended and is certainly one of the reasons why T3's are so popular in exploration.
Fair point although as I say it seems a bit silly, been allowed since i came back to game 5and a half months ago. Would also be nice if it had been included in patch notes which as i have quoted only mentions battleships, so those of us that dont fly tech 3s could prepare and now not be disadvantaged. |

Is it possible for a dev to answer this so we know if this is a bug or is it intended so all non tech3 explorers know whats happening Thx |

As I'm sure we can all agree, letting Loki's in but not Hurricane's makes no sense!
Thank you very much for your reply and clarification,
It just seemed a pretty hard nerf for non tech 3 pilots in high sec exploration and as it only mentioned battleships in the patch notes it gave us no warning to alter skill training toward tech 3 ( for me 1 months worth of training).
On a side note tech 3 seemed massively overused compared to other ships and can now imagine it being even more so given that other ships now seem to be massively disadvantaged and tech 3 seem to be a one size fit nearly every situation.

As I'm sure we can all agree, letting Loki's in but not Hurricane's makes no sense! Loki being CRUISER hull why shouldn't be able to go there?
So a Hurricane isnt a cruiser hull then ?
(Battle) Cruiser (Strategic) Cruiser
You tell me why a Hurricane should be disallowed then.
I raised the point because I could see the potential for a mistake to be made in the coding as the original intention according to the patch notes was to exclude battle ships.
If it was only to allow plain vanilla cruisers or below to enter then that would have been fine. As it is, I feel that now we have been left with an uneven field of play.
All I was asking for was a bit of parity/ consistency, which at the moment i don't feel we have and wont have until it is addressed in a future patch which we have no timescale for so the disparity could continue for many months maybe more. |
