I do not understand how CCP could overlook the very fact why the Reinforced Bulkheads were not used more.
I believe it has something to do with the fact that they reduce cargohold size....
So now Freighters have got their cargohold size reduced, only to fit a module that reduces said cargohold size even more??

Expanded cargoholds reduce hull hp amounts and increase cargohold amount.
Reinforced bulkheads reduce cargohold amount and raise hull HP.
Everything seems fine.

NO, everything is not fine.
If they want to add 3 low slots and help freighters to "tank" better, that item it should be a Damage Control II, and let the 2 other slots for cargo expanders or the new modules for warp speed.

The hull HP was reduced by CCP:
Now you can increase it to a level not as high as before Kronos, while at the same time getting your
already reduced cargo size reduced even more
If there is logic in that formula somewhere.........I don`t see it
(btw, each t2 cargohold expander, when fitted, reduces hull HP by 20%, ie 60% less hull HP, if 3 are fitted) |

So you want to an across-the-board buff with no rationale? Yeah no. |

It wouldn't be the first ship to get an across-the-board buff. I think the rationale is they are pretty easy gank. When a ship of that size and cost is taking a chance carrying 2B in cargo, you can expect whining.
The DCU has a significant downside that IMO justifies the buff that it would give: it's active, so no afk flying.
Did freighters really need a nerf?

The fact that a DCU is an active module qualifies as a "significant downside"? Wow.... |

actually 2 freighters made it out of the changes rly fine. They are Obelisk and Providence. Reason they r ******* armor tanked so fit 1 adaptive nano plate 2 cargohold expanders and u pretty much have the old hull. Now charon give me a shield resistence mod like adaptive nano plating for low and i will say the changes were great. Or give the Charon a far bigger cargohold or the ability to fit a DC as i said in the official freighter rebalance thread.
(Fenrir same case just not as bad as charon) |

Freighters didn't get a nerf, thay got a balance. You wanted fitting choices... now make them. |

Anyone who says this, has no idea what they are talking about.
Pressing F1 is easy, yes, but finding the target and organizing a bunch of belligerents to work as a cohesive unit is the hard part.

The new freighters have larger cargos, larger tanks, and can warp and travel much faster than the old ones... Just not all at the same time.

But is there a fit which is no slower (agility and velocity), with as many EHP and as much cargo as a pre-Kronos freighter?
If so then there is no nerf, it's merely a matter of fitting choice.
In reality the impossibility of this task means that the "customisation options" are at teh expense of a significant nerf.
Of particular note, prior to the change from righs to lowslots, freighters would have been the only ships ever to suffer modification to allow for rig addition - imaging the rage if every battleship had had their shield, armour, structure, speed and weapon hardpoints reduced to allow for the possibility of rigging... |

I find it difficult to believe but from statements like this I have to assume that you don't fly other ships.
Allow me to enlighten you. Every ship in the game, made more extreme by each balance pass, is forced to choose between tank, raw dps, dps application, utility, speed/agility, stealth, or cargo... but never more than two of any of those aspects at the same time and only with any particular strength in one.
The only exception has been freighters. That glaring exception has been resolved. I hope you have enjoyed your ride on the fitting gravy train but from now on you must slog through the mud with the rest of us.

Do you even multiply? I mean, seriously. Almost everything in EVE is multiplicative, not additive. How do retards continue to get this **** wrong? It's 47.8% less hull HP, dumbass. Each reduces the hull HP by 20% which means that after it's been reduced by 20% to 80% it gets reduced by 20% of 80% to 64%. Then from there it loses 20% of 64% and drops to 51.2%.
Learn basic game mechanics and simple math before you even try to discuss balance. If you don't understand things, you can't possibly understand if it's balanced or not. Ignorant fool. |

Just because you don't like the bonuses and what they do, doesn't make it illogical.
