I was expecting a C&P thread about the keynote - this will certainly add a complicating dimension to ganking. It's about time we can rig the buggers though. Zappity's Adventures for a taste of lowsec. |

The idiots who stuff 10 billion into a Freighter and autopilot it through Uedama now are going to be the idiots who cargo rig it so they can fit 15 billion after the patch. |

Sigh. I hope that we'll get a way to scan rigs. New player resources: http://wiki.eveuniversity.org/Main_Page - General information http://www.evealtruist.com/p/know-your-enemy.html - Learn to PvP http://belligerentundesirables.com/ - Safaris, Awoxes, Ganking and Griefing-á |

Umm, not sure how your ship scanner works but mine tells me what rigs they have.

Yeah, the math has never been particularly challenging. It certainly raises the bar on profitable ganking. Zappity's Adventures for a taste of lowsec. |

I like the idea of more 'customizable' freighters, giving the freighter pilots a choice between warp speed rigs, cargo space rigs and hull rigs (are the numbers published or not yet?). It will certainly make freighter bumpers fit ship scanners in addition to the cargo scanners.
But... considering the number of untanked Orcas lost daily, I don't think we will see many hull rigged freighters. |

I refer you to post #2, ganks dont happen to people that understand the game, it happens to those who don't or think they do. So in essence it may have changed the equation but has lowered the bar. Kinda like when they "buffed" T1 haulers. "PvE in EVE is a trap to turn you into PvP content, don't confuse it for actual gameplay." Lipbite |

Here's my predictions.
Freighter pilots have the opportunity to substantially increase their EHP, many don't and choose to increase their capacity instead, then whine when they die.
People still AP the damn things through choke-points and whine when they die, despite any hull rigs.
Some people will never accept that the best tank against a gank is being an unattractive target, and actually being there to prevent it.

Warp speed rigs are going to make freight work substantially faster. I wear my goggles at night.

I agree with this. This is one of the better stealth trolls by CCP

This.
Ganking squads will now require intel on rig selection too. Set the universe on fire - then sell the survivors ash. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=238931 - an idea for a new form of hybrid PVE/PVP content. If you want to mine in highsec, read www.minerbumping.com. |

I'm waiting for a Charon Cargo rigged with another Charon inside of it to be ganked. GÇ£Die tryingGÇ¥ is the proudest human thing. |

And that day will be glorious. Everything in EVE is a trap. And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:) You want to know what immorality in EVE Online looks like? Look no further than Ripard "Jester" Teg.

i am quite sure they will lower the base cargo capacity enough so that with rigs it will bring it back to what it is now and without it will be lower than now.
We will never be able to transport caps in a frieghter - unless they are allowing them in hisec again. |

They're actually just increasing capital packaged sizes to be above max charon capacity. GÇ£Die tryingGÇ¥ is the proudest human thing. |

Even better if the rest of the cargohold is filled with Carbon. Set the universe on fire - then sell the survivors ash. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=238931 - an idea for a new form of hybrid PVE/PVP content. If you want to mine in highsec, read www.minerbumping.com. |

This won't change a thing in the long run, but I applaud the slight push for thoughts by CCP. |
