I personally disagree with the reasoning behind nerfing the shuttle. If anything, it needs a boost. In all my time playing EVE, I do't think anyone has attempted to mae use of a shuttle in a fleet engagment, that I have been in.
Even though it has the highest base speed in the EVE Universe, it's lack of medium or low slots means that we shuttle pilots are unable to improve upon that base speed, so the slower interceptors are in reality much faster.
In addition to its lack of a medium or low slot, it also lacks a valuable highslot. We can't very well arm my shuttle with an arbalast cruise launcher without such a slot, and with out the use of a BCU in the low slot, the cruise launcher in the high slot could hardly be considered to be operating at peak efficiancy.
As a third point, we would like to bring to the attention of the EVE community and the esteemed CCP developers at CCP the the shuttle is impossible to tank. The Caldari shuttle, for example, lacks the ample shield that would allow me to properly tank in Caldari fasion. In addition to my earlier grievence against the lack of a mid slot, it becomes quite aparent that a shield tank will be impossible. Also, take note of my priar statement addressing the absence of the low slot that would normally allow armor tanking. And as a final point to the shuttle's distinct inability to tank is that combined, the cavity formed by both the mid and low slots prevents the surprise structure tank. Without these, it isn't even nescisary to bring to the for the insultingly small capacitor with which we disenfranchised shuttle pilots must cope with, which only adds to our inability to pull off a proper tank.
As a fourth, and perhaps final note, we will bring to your educated attention the diminutive cargohold with which we must accomplish our duties. Had we been able to manage a way to fit a weapon turret on the shuttle, which you are no doubt aware of by now to be impossible, we would hardly be capable of storing the nescisary amunition to keep it running for any kind of an extended period of time. This problem leaves me with lasers as the alternative, but for the same reason that the limited capacitor charge prevents tanking in our shuttle, we are unable to use lasers. This limited transpor capacity also limits the post combat duties of "looting" for lack of a better and similarly concise word. With only 10M^3, we shuttle pilots are unable to perform this task with asgreat an efficiancy as say, a Badger, whos combat presence is also far superior to that of the shuttle.
To fix thes problems, it would be advisable that the shuttle's base speed remain unaltered, but add a middle and lowslot for improved speed and handling. Secondly, the addition of 2-3 Highslots for the apropriate weaponry acording to race be added with CPU an powergrid adjusted to accomidate the needs of the new weaponry. As a third measure of the solution, the dignified developers should see to it that the shuttle gain the apropriate medium and low slots for tanking, in addition to a capacitor boost. As an example, the Caldari shuttle would require a minimum of two more slots, coupled with the one mentioned earlier for speed modificatios, to allow for shield boosting and hardening. Lastly, the cargo should be extended to a generous 450M^3 to allow for a ore efficiant gathering of the remaining intact parts that combat leaves behind.
However, not all things are as cripled as the shuttle. The capsule is by far the most overballanced vessel in he game. Bare in mand that it is an escape pod, and as such its facilities should be limited. It should have no shield what-so-ever, and it is rediculous to belive that an emergency vessel of such limited proportions should have a warp drive. If it were up to me, it would remain drifting in the same speed an direction as the ship that once bore the pod and pilot through combat.
ps This thread and those that posted in it gave me some of the best lau...Curses! Out of characters!

I can't believe someone actually starting a topic concerning shuttles, omg. Can't even believe i am posting this. Who wants to kill shuttles anyway? Maybe you should stop sniping and actually start pvp'ing.

Instead of nerfing shuttles, I think we need to remove all pods from the game. It is hard enuff to kill a ship, and then I have to kill the pod on top of that...
Also a pod allows pilots to escape and therefore they have no incentive to worry about about their ships because they know they are safe.

Am I doing this right?

Wow. Just SO many people who can't see when someone is posting tongue-in-cheek. After reading idiotic threads with people whining about stupid stuff, coming back to this one gives me a nice chuckle.

We should remove pods also..
Oh and what is this I hear about high-slots on BSs? If they can have them why can't shuttles? Thank you CCP for nerfing the one ane only beautyful ship ..that being the shuttle!

Yesterday a gaggle of shuttles attacked me in XZH. I could warp out with 2% structure. Know i am alienate about the new danger of EVE. I will never undock again, if CCP will not nerf the shuttles. Advanced Spaceship Command Level 5 should the minium requirement to use them.
See you in Yulai.

Shuttles make great ninja miners, just use the nose to break off the ore from the asteroid surface.

dude, i totally agree. shuttles are INVINCIBLE. they warp off as fast as a pod, BUT have a cargo hold. either nerf the cargo or the agility PLEASE.
Kinda funny your sig contains a kill-board of a shuttle and your saying they are invincible?

Just thought I'd say that shuttles are really useful. Especially when you need to get through lots of 0.0 systems quickly. 30+ plus 0.0 jumps without using instas is no problem.
Shuttles are also great for hauling blue prints.
CCP - don't mess with shuttles

This thread is absolutely hillarious!!!! hahahahahah
I can't believe how seriously the anti-thread people are taking it! Personally had you not obviously been a pirate I would have thought it a **** take.
(BTW: CCP will never make changes like these so I don't see the point in arguing over it...)
