Furry Commander Furry Armada 2	Posted - 2012.09.19 23:03:00 - [1] - Quote I like the concept, but if the bonuses are identicle and the fitting attributes fairly similar it leads to a lot of racial homogenization. that seems to be the unfortunate side effect of all the wonderfull buffs, retools, and improvements being made of late. The wierd, quirky bonuses that werent really all that useful frequently were what made the ships feel more unique. I understand some of them are being integrated into the hulls themselves, but it still kinda feels like many of the ships are getting "roled" into being too similar. additionally, i don't know if you were planning on looking into tweaking rigs at all, but the hacking/archeology/scanning rigs are pretty steep on calibration costs and i feel rigs in general could use some tweaking, but i will reserve that for another thread. why not do something like this to help keep some of the racial flavor and make the ships perform a little better. i will italicize my changes for ease of reading Magnate: Frigate skill bonuses: 7.5% increase to scan strength of probes 5% bonus to Codebreaker, Analyzer and Salvager cycle time 10% bonus to Small Energy Turret optimal range Role Bonus: 50% reduction to Electronics Rigs calibration cost Slot layout: 3 H (+1), 3 M (+2), 4 L (+1), 2 turrets, 2 launchers (+2) Fittings: 26 PWG (+4), 230 CPU (+20) Defense (shields / armor / hull) : 250(+90) / 350(-36) / 250(+6) Capacitor (amount / recharge rate / cap per second): 325 (+168.75)/ 180s (+62.8s)/ 1.8056 (+0.47) Mobility (max velocity / agility / mass / align time): 350 (+54) / 3.8 (-0.32) / 1072000 / 3.81s (-0.32s) Drones (bandwidth / bay): 15(+5) / 40(+30) Targeting (max targeting range / Scan Resolution / Max Locked targets): 34km / 445 / 4 Sensor strength: 10 Radar Signature radius: 39 (-4) Cargo capacity: 400 (+243.75) Heron: Frigate skill bonuses: 7.5% increase to scan strength of probes 5% bonus to Codebreaker, Analyzer and Salvager cycle time !0% Bonus to missile velocity Role Bonus: 50% Reduction to Electronics Rigs calibration cost Slot layout: 3 H (+1), 5 M (+2), 2 L (+1), 2 turrets (+1), 2 launchers Fittings: 24 PWG (+4), 260 CPU (+10) Defense (shields / armor / hull) : 400(+126) / 200(-58) / 200(-26) Capacitor (amount / recharge rate / cap per second): 245 (+88.75)/ 135s (+17.8s)/ 1.814 (+0.48) Mobility (max velocity / agility / mass / align time): 340 (+20) / 3.57 (+0.04) / 1150000 / 3.84s (+0.04s) Drones (bandwidth / bay): 15(+10) / 35(+25) Targeting (max targeting range / Scan Resolution / Max Locked targets): 37.5km / 430 / 4 Sensor strength: 12 Gravimetric Signature radius: 40 (-8) Cargo capacity: 400 (+243.75) Imicus: Frigate skill bonuses: 7.5% increase to scan strength of probes 5% bonus to Codebreaker, Analyzer and Salvager cycle time 5% Bonus to drone tracking speed Role Bonus: 50% Reduction to Electronics Rigs calibration cost Slot layout: 3 H (+1), 4 M (+2), 3 L (+1), 1 turrets (-1) Fittings: 21 PWG (+1), 250 CPU (+20) Defense (shields / armor / hull) : 275(+50) / 325(-19) / 275(-14) Capacitor (amount / recharge rate / cap per second): 270 (+113.75)/ 135s (+32.8s)/ 1.8 (+0.47) Mobility (max velocity / agility / mass / align time): 330 (+52) / 4.15 (-0.04) / 997000 / 3.87s (+0.04s) Drones (bandwidth / bay): 20(+5) / 40(+25) Targeting (max targeting range / Scan Resolution / Max Locked targets): 35km / 450 / 4 Sensor strength: 11 Magnetometric Signature radius: 41 (-4) Cargo capacity: 400 (+80) Probe: Frigate skill bonuses: 7.5% increase to scan strength of probes 5% bonus to Codebreaker, Analyzer and Salvager cycle time 10% Bonus to Small Projectile Turret falloff Role Bonus: 50% Reduction to Electronics Rigs calibration cost Slot layout: 3 H (+1), 4 M (+2), 3 L (+1), 2 turrets, 2 launchers (+2) Fittings: 25 PWG (+5), 240 CPU (+20) Defense (shields / armor / hull) : 300(+105) / 300(+26) / 225(-49) Capacitor (amount / recharge rate / cap per second): 235 (+78.75)/ 130s (+12.8s)/ 1.8 (+0.47) Mobility (max velocity / agility / mass / align time): 360 (+26) / 3.58 / 1123000 / 3.76s Drones (bandwidth / bay): 15(+5) / 35(+25) Targeting (max targeting range / Scan Resolution / Max Locked targets): 32.5km / 465 / 4 Sensor strength: 9 Ladar Signature radius: 38 (-3) Cargo capacity: 400 (+80)
