It wasn't really a question. It was a demonstration that what you're asking for is pretty much already in the game.

No, what he did was showed that the word orca existed in my post. What it didn't do was show anything else.

And I would agree with your assessment if nothing were changing. But things change, and with change old things don't hold up anymore.
With the proposed nerfs fozzie is proposing your progression chart doesn't hold up anymore. My point was merely that if we must have change for the sake of it, it would create far less fuss to create a pre-nerfed ship than it would to nerf an existing one to give it false choices. |

Your argument was that I was whining about what an orca could and could not do. My response was that you were wrong and I never mentioned the orca. My point still stands. I never did mention the orca. Someone else brought it up and I corrected them. |

They hold up even more now since there's a lot more variation in the ships that fill out any gaps that existed before.
While there may be variation there is no functional way to achieve the same stats of the ship you had before. If you chose to buff one to get back to where you were you also nerf your ship in another way even more. |

One upside to this: I'll be able to get my Obelisk up to 1.93 AU/sec, which reduces the worst part of freighting. Sure I lose a third of my cargo capacity, but who moves big volumes of stuff with a freighter anyway?
I can't wait to see what Black Frog will be doing with this. I feel bad for the folks there who will have to come up with the new load limits. |

I wanted to reply to this thread. Thank you Fozzie for spending time on your weekend responding.
I really feel betrayed with this change. I first heard "rigs on freighters!" And my reaction was like a lot of other people "no, because you will nerf them down so they NEED rigs to be like they are now. " That is not giving us choice. That is making us spend more on rigs for no reason other then making them the same as pre nerf.
Here is an idea, your own idea actually from the Transport ship changes. Give them a "bay". Make the bay the same size as they are now, and only let skill change how big the size is. Then give us rigs.
Now rigs are not competing for cargo size, they are an added utility. Faster? Use a rig. More tank? Use a rig. Use less fuel for a JF? Maybe a rig (I posted a proposal about these rigs) All rigs already have a draw back.
Also, you won't get the dreaded power creep. We won't be able to haul more then we currently do. No need to change re packaged cap ships.
TL; DR: Keep it as simple as you can.
Unless there are more changes you are trying to accomplish. If you are trying to decrease logistical ability, please state that. |

I didn't mention them, you and others did as a false equivalency to what I was fighting for. I was responding to what you posted which is not the same as mentioning them. |

No I didn't.
Think of it like the Clinton scandal.
How do you define the word sex? His view was that oral was not "sex". IE there was no insertion into something that could make children.
I didn't mention orca because there was no need to bring them up. Someone else mentioned them and I responded to their comments. Once you mention something it can be re-mentioned. |

I can see some of these reductions are needed to compensate for the boost from rigs. But even with rigs, a freighter cannot be brought up to the same performance level it has right now. If you rig for cargo, the tank is less. If you rig for tank, the cargo is less. If you rig a bit for both, both are less. There is no combination of rigs that return a freighter to where it is right now.
Please reconsider the degree of the reductions to cargo and tank. http://vincentoneve.wordpress.com/ |

it's not meant to be "where it is right now" that's the point of the change. the idea is you pick 1 attribute, and make it better at the cost of the others.
if freighters were to be rigged to "where it is right now" it would totally defeat the point of the change. |

A freighter right now is pretty much safe if he have between 1b and 2b of goods in his cargohold. Cargohold expander decrease armor hp, does it make the freigther fragile enough to be a target even with only 1b to 2b of goods in his cargohold (assuming he have freighter at IV and rigs at IV)? |

I'm not. His accusation was that my posts over a two page history were wines about the orca's capabilites. I'm arguing that I couldn't be whining about something I didn't even bring up and could care less about since they aren't getting any changes.
What I'm saying is that if you change the word "orca" with the word "they" it functionally changes nothing, the meaning stays the same, and I am still not the one that brought it up or "mentioned it".
aka: "Because orca's have 500k m3?" is the same as: "Because they have 500k m3?" because there is context there since I quoted the full posts of everyone. Just because I used the word orca doesnt mean that I'm the one that mentioned it. |

1st off I own multiple JF and Freighters and I never asked for any rigs or any changes at all. I only made posts where I was happy they were adding rigs..but that was before Saturdays massive nerf post. I take it all back.
I think we need to realize (and God help us agree) the JF and Freighter really have different roles.
And the JF is T2. But as many pointed out..those I think also fly them..cargo is king on them. I was trained on and owned Gal Freighters but switched to Rhea just to get a little bit extra cargo on my Jump Trips. Fuel is expensive (4 cynos 100 mil fuel cost round trip atm before changes) and every little bit helps.
So I am against any cargo nerf at all. if they want to add rigs fine..but cough cough the goons guy's idea is better. 3 low slots. but I still think a JF should get M and H because it its T2 after all. And if you keep its capacity and let the slots or rigs add to it..then it deserves its price tag. Other wise the cost to make it should be in line with the reduction in base cargo capacity. They have modified the build cost of caps before based on changes..this should be no different.
The fact is JF's were fine. More capacity is always nice..but fine. I still want 500k capacity with T2 rigs. I see no harm in that gameplay wise. God forbid I spend a few less hours hauling and a few more hours on fun stuff.
Changing normal freighters I totally like if I can get more tank and such. but again I like the slots also.
What you don't all get is that anything added to a freighter doesn't need to be balanced with a nerf. It's NOT A COMBAT SHIP. It doesn't effect game play. If I need to move 5 Mil m3's around in Null. More or less capacity wont change anything. Its station to station jumps, dock in 5 secs. Just more or less time. High sec is a whole different ball game. Believe it or not, there is no ganking in Null. Its kill or be killed. You are safe or you aren't. there is no in between. Will he kill me? Hell yes he will kill you. Ha!
High Sec's want options to offset the increased DPS of ships that has made freighters so vulnerable the last couple years. And with Isk inflation hauling 1 bil is hardly practical....well to avoid gank you would need to haul no more then the cost of a gank. If a 50% drop rate no more then 2x the cost of a gank. If that is 300mil..then 600mil. That isn't crap to a hauler. That is silly. They should cost at least as much to gank as the value of the ship. So their reward is picking one with decent cargo. |

if it took one of each rig to bring it back to the norm, i could fit 3x cargo rigs and get an overpowered capacity.
like in all the threads before, u have to nerf it to a point that extreme fittings arent over powered. so the nerf has to be pretty hard, and it really could have been much worse than this. But i think u can rig for speed and tank and have them both exceed previous levels, though im not 100% sure, it just comes at the expense of capacity.

64 pages, and 61 of those from just three toons 
Just a quick observation (as I note freighter prices are already falling) where highsec main freighters are involved - I plan to actually purchase a second freighter post patch. One I will trimark up, the other will be max cargo space. When its quiet and I need to move a high volume / low cost load I will use the cargo rigged freighter - when its busy or I need to move a high value load I will use the trimarked freighter.
Just mentioning it as you are not just tied to having a single freighter you know - plus those that speculate might want to watch the prices of freighters post patch as I am sure I won't be the only one who buys a couple extra to fit specific roles.
Appreciate jump freighters are a totally different ball game - think I'll be mothballing mine and concentrating on local 00 production, which I think is the intended idea |
