You should add a short clip of the interceptor warping from yesterday's stream to the blog. |

There are TII freighters already which are both faster and more durable. |

Octoven wrote:Nice changes, though if you were to ask someone who never played eve what they expect warp to be. I imagine the response would be, "Deceleration = to acceleration...not slower than." Could you imagine how much faster warp would be for all ships if the deceleration curve was the same rate as acceleration? lol
It used to be faster on Sisi. Let me run you through what was happening:
Tick one, you see a dictor on d-scan.
Tick two, you are enveloped in a warp disruption bubble.
Tick three, dictor appears on your overview.
Yes, in this order.
The EVE physics engine enforces a hard cap on how fast ships can drop from warp before stupid things start happening. |

The overall idea is to spread out the warp speed spectrum so that small ships warp significantly faster than big ships. I don't see anyone disagreeing with this general idea. Unfortunately due to physics constraints the spectrum can't be entirely shifted downwards. Therefore large ships have to warp slower than now. EVE isn't built on the fact that it takes X minutes to get a freighter from Jita to Amarr. So what if it takes X*1.5 now?
If anything, the freighter change specifically encourages outsourcing hauling to 3rd party companies, which promotes player interaction.
I fly freighters, JFs and caps frequently and I am fine with losing a little for a change that will benefit the whole game. |
