"Amateurs talk about tactics, but professionals study logistics."

I don't know why people are all riled up about the current super capital changes that CCP Tallest has proposed while ignoring the fundamental problem with EVE Online right now: Jump Freighters

Jump Freighters are the "I win" button of logistics, it's unfair that a Jump Freighter can move so much mat+¬riel without a support fleet. I propose this "superfreighter" should be limited in the type of items it can carry, perhaps the ability to carry ships (packaged or unpackaged) should be removed to shift the role of hauling ships back to the carrier.

There currently is no way to move more stuff than a Jump Freighter without using more Jump Freighters or using a Titan and a Freighter, which doesn't have nearly the range. Having to use a Titan in the first place puts a strain on any small alliance wanting to get into nullsec. Jump Freighters are completely unbalanced. And no, "because they cost 5b isk" is not a valid reason for them to be so good.

I'm sure there are better changes that can be made to bring the Jump Freighter back into balance, but the heart of the matter is whoever has more Jump Freighters can move more stuff faster and without a support fleet than any other combination of ship types.

Thank you.

Compelling argument, my friend. But by reducing the ability to move finished goods to nullsec it will force production to be shifted from Empire to nullsec. This will boost regional industry and lead to more dynamic game play.

Instead of just recruiting "elite Jump Freighter" pilots alliances will be forced to get a broad spectrum of players encouraging growth in their space.

So you're telling me that Jump Freighters can jump directly from high sec (where they can't be attacked)

So they die, what's your point?

Nanoships also died, but they were still game breaking.
