mala: I see; so we wont just be getting megathron mk2 or rifter mk2 but new and different ships as well?
Tomb: Yes, about the so called megathron 2k ... new ships will be specialized. But there will be more than just megathron 2k, we have 4 variant ships for each type currently which went in with a patch in May if my mind recalls correctly. They all have a unique look, you have probably heard about them or perhaps seen one. And they will all have unique abilities
Will this mean tech 2 ships will be realesed May 2004?? if so Iam out of here! i cant wait that long for better gameplay =s iam bored i want action i want something new!!! I love eve but i hate the way its going...

Um no it seems from reading it like these ships are in the code already, but are not in game. It said "went in" and "if I recall" so it seems pretty clearly past tense.

There was a patch in May large enough to contain the ships designs of 4x4 races?

Thanks to EVEGATE (and TomB :) ) for this interview. I'm interested that he hasn't answered exactly when we'll see the bulk of tech II hit the streets. I'm also interested to see we'll be hearing some details about tech III (talk about replacing one carrot with another :P).

No new info imho... and still no eta's... or what steps stuff will be introduced in ... and i think the "don't want to spoil it to the community" is really annoying... we know nothing... we get nothing... i am getting fed up

If they've been in since May, WHY CAN'T WE HAVE THEM?
Oh, that's right, because CCP is holding back the game artificially... they are making it boring on purpose.
/me goes back to playing Horizons while a level 5 skill trains in Eve...

... No; if i understand it, they are working on 4 variants for each ship and the 3d art and whatnot which is needed for them went in the game in May patch this year.
Which is pretty believeable, given those new ships are only slightly modified looks-wise:
"Malediction: black version of the executioner. Cheetah: camouflaged version of the Vigil with a big radar on top."
... i believe there was even some screenshots of them posted on the forum at some point...

This game was released in May. May 6th to be exact.
That would mean that they put in the designs for a totally new series of ships, including battleships and "specialty" ships in May, at best 3 weeks after game release, when everyone was still running around in frigates and cruisers.
Now 6 months later, that stuff would still be sitting there but not released even though everyone is screaming for something, anything to inject some life in the game.
And this is pretty believable?

"And this is pretty believable? "
*shrugs* I was thinking of technical aspect which is believable to me since i have some personal experience with it. That it doesn't make sense as far as game development goes... well, that's entirely different matter. But then again, it wouldn't be first strange decision the developers did, non?.. :s

Specially we want to get frigates more into play in bigger wars. We will be reducing the possibility of battleships or cruisers to track new close combat frigates, where as new ships called destroyers will be specialized to take them out. But we don't want to increase the price of new ships as new techs will. We don't want players to be afraid of taking their ship out for action, since PVP combat is mostly destroying the ship of your opponent and the loot is not that matters as much as the lost ship.
It¦s OK CCP keep teasing us with these friggin supercool ideas and concepts. Your customers are starving, looking for content. Don¦t talk about all the stuff, PUT IT IN!!

For the record, regarding the 4 different "versions" of ships, I think I've seen some of the BH people fly them on Chaos a long while ago... Like, what I saw, was a different version of an executioner... had extra engine pods and a light.
Maybe that's what he's talking about: they take a basic hull type, like say Kestrel, and make 4 extra versions out of it, each with its little quirk / feature. |

We need a new channel for threads like this:
"not fulfilled recurring nice ideas of what CCP would like this game to be and what really won't be in the next 6-12 months at least"

If we truly have to wait this long for Tech 2 items then we can forget it - whilst 6 months may not be that long in the real world it is an eternity in Eve.

Sounds fine to me  Remember a good deal of things are coming out apart from ship including a range of mobile refineries etc.
My only question is will the battleship originals, which cost over a billion ISK each, be able to be researched down the road to produce improved models? Should not the this be possible considering the initial price of the BPs? Also hope this first generation of BS don't just get obsolete.

Wow... hybrid and elite frigates, that's what I have been waiting for. I think I will trash my battleship colletion for it and place all those new frigates in my hanger. I hope they can take my large guns 
They should have put them in game as everyone was flying frigates, instead of forcing us to use them in "large battles" now.
I can't risk flying a frigate, because my head is worth a battleship.

Yes, why not?
The graphics for Titans as been in the game for a year or something...
A 3d model and a working ship is quite different things.
Anyway, nothing new in this interview :/
But nice anyway.
When are that stuff supposed to come out? :<
I mean there's only two months left of this year, and from start they said we would get stations and things this year?
And we don't even have tech 2 yet? :[
