I too love the changes, BUT
I feel that the 4 haulers that are cargo bay specific should be made into ORE ships where you use the ORE Industrial skill.
Also they can be different versions/colors of the Noctis to seperate them.

We talked about doing a POS fueler (and I expect this to be the most legit complaint) but it just isn't possible atm. I can't go into specifics but please trust me here =/
Renaming strikes me as messy, but I'll bring it up with our story department and see what their opinion is. Please don't rename them, or any ship for that matter.
The current names suits them more than before I think, with a focus on iterations on roles than just cargo/hp etc. This is a good thing. Don't change it please. |

Ooh, a mystery.
I'm guessing it's the way fuel blocks are categorized in the database. -á |

Someone pointed out that the ammo bay should be accessible in space like a fleet hangar; that would push this whole thing from 99% to 101% WIN I think.

I see no reason for anyone to train anything other than Gallente industrials if this goes through. Why use any other races if Gallente can do the same plus much more. |

First impression: Better ideas. Except ammo bay which seems largely useless; we need a T1 ship bay relocation ship for moving fitted ships without contract madness.
Second impression: Holy crap, the Itty 3 is coming out of mothballs and I'm training Gal Ind above 1.
Third impression: OK the ammo bay could be useful for bomber wings but you'd need to make it Blopsable.
Looking forward to the EFT crowd postings. Author of Interstellar Privateer Shattered Planets, Wormholes and Game Commentary |

I'm guessing it has to do with this mysterious "industrial work" that's mysteriously "coming down" the mysterious "pipe" that CCP Rise alluded to in previous posts. |

For hauling needs outside of the special bays you will generally get better performance from options other than Gallente. |

Better, but with comments/questions.
Iteron Mark II and IV's description of what it can haul is a little cryptic, can they be clarified. Specifically:
1) Can the Iteron Mark IV haul compressed ore 2) Which can haul refined ore (Tritanium, Isogen, etc). The description is slightly cryptic. 3) Which can haul melted ice products (isotopes, heavy water, strontium, Ozone) 4) Can the new bays be expandable through use of rigs and/or cargo expanders? 5) Can any (or all of them), be set to given the ability to haul pure fuel (actual fuel blocks). If not all of them, which one? 6) Can or will the Iteron Mark III be permitted to haul in POS batteries (Such as Gun Turrets, Sensor Dampening Modules, Resistance Batteries, etc). Reason I ask, is that it seems the most "fit" to do that.
Comment:
The Iteron Mark II and Iteron Mark IV seem to overlap a bit (one being a Mineral Hauler, the Other one a Ore Hauler), Couldn't the "Mineral" and "Ore Hauler" role be combined into 1 ship? and the extra ship be repurposed (they just seem to do the same thing, but would require jumping into an entirely new ship after dumping the ore/ice/gas into the processor for processing.
Other than that, long as the 5% per level applies to those bays, seems the haulers will be improved.

There's definately more reason now that there was before, don't you think? E.g. now if you want maximum general hold, you go for Bestower. It's definately more role destinction now than before. In fact I see people actually crosstraining indies now. |

Does ammo bay include cap charges?
If not, maybe it should. In fact it maybe should include everything that falls under the "charges" category in the market window. |

Im not sure if a solution for this has been mentioned anywhere, if so, ive missed it, but as this is going to bring in another batch of BPOs with extra materials on the build requirements, I think 1 of CCPs biggest aims should be to find a way to get these extras gradually worked into the normal requirements. The current plethora of BPOs with these extra materials is now reaching a stupid level and is making a mockery of ME research. Yes i appreciate why its done, but delegating these as EM is not the final solution and I would hope CCP dont see it as that. |

The ammunition bay seems like an avenue for considerable abuse; you can fit quite a few hoarders inside of a carrier's ship maintenance bay, and each of those hoarders can be filled to the brim with ammunition for mineral compression purposes. |

Not sure why people have problems cross-training, since it takes 13 minutes(?). 13 minutes and you get all gallente ships, what's the big deal? And since itty 5 is now going to be about 2500 or so less than a GSC Bestower, people have a reason to cross-train into that as well.
With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

I think this would be actually be good role for DSTs.
Industrials for general hauling. Blockade Runners for smuggling, being speedy, and avoiding potential combat at all cost. Deep Space Transports for aiding fleets as relief and resupply. Fleet Ammunition Hangar, Fleet Drone Hangar, Fleet Fuel Hangar... and I actually can't think of a fourth. Hrm. |

I looked through this thread but didn't see any references to other industrial work. What are you referring to?

I really like new industrials. Only reservation is that many of them don't have sufficient PWG to fit MWD and PCD to do MWD trick. This is necessity of survival in low sec, and quite helpful in 0.0, and highsec during wardecks.
Minimal PWG that someone noobish with Engineering at lvl 4 can fit mwd+pcd is ~130, so consider upgrading PWG of all industrials that are below that threshold.

I should be more careful about making vague references to future development. Basically, our extremely high level direction for the next while is focused towards building things - we have no idea what will fall out of this specifically, but the overall direction may lead to new potential uses for indie ships, which is why I felt fine leaving 4 of them more or less open to change down the road. Please don't read into this, there's nothing particular that I know of relative to these ships coming in the near future.
As far as the the abuse of the hoarder ammo bay for compression - the difference in potential capacity and unpacked volume between it and the old Iteron V isn't enormous. Not different enough to create a new kind of abuse, though obviously would make for more efficiency. I'll make sure we talk about if we are happy with this and if not we can adjust the unpacked volume on the Hoarder accordingly. |
