The new numbers are much better. I have no doubts that further tweaks will follow through either patches or in the next update.
The Time of The Rorqnaught is upon us. If it is done right, then the "revisiting" that CCP has mentioned will be towards more combat and less whatever the heck it is supposed to do now. Give it the ability to team up into a triad of spider tanked Rorqs and field a decent wing of both miners and combat ships.
It was supposed to be some sort of deep-space mothership, so let's make it one. Rip through some belts, then reload the ships and be gone into jump. One Rorq with mining links and the other(s) with combat command links. Indi AND combat ship bays. Concurrent users to 20.
More fitting variety. Teams of Rorqs reach a synergy with the escorts and miners, as well as increased security for those expensive hulls.
The revisted Rorq... Not quite a Carrier.
Back on topic...
Will be fun to see just how quickly the creative ones find a way to make these changes work. Moving ships INSIDE JFs to be re-assembled, fitted, and then given to pilots... yeah, that will be an easy process.
The early gate battles are going to be bloody.
Shield-tanked, low-mass Wspace-traversing fleets may increase. Why risk the Titan bridge way the hell and gone from home when with 6 wspace transits the fleet is at the target? Rokhs become useful.
Dispersion of super-cap pilots. Predators always achieve a natural balance of hunting territory. Why get tired humping all those jumps when you can just live near the action? New corps that are aligned with old alliances, with pockets all over to spread the wealth, pilot alts, and supers.
Some pilots may even transition to newer entities to assist them in securing holdings. Nothing makes for pew-pew like being the new kids on the block.
Being a big fish in a small pond may begin to have meaning when the batphone cannot ring. Three of four Titans and a supporting fleet may mean something.
Going to be fun to observe...
Already hilarious that pilots would unsub then resu |
