Querns GBS Logistics and Fives Support Goonswarm Federation 2206	Posted - 2015.10.26 16:37:28 - [31] - Quote CCP Ytterbium wrote: Querns wrote: I'm glad to see citadels moving forward. The market speculation should be very nice, as a bonus. I, of course, have to ask again -- has there been any discussion on how legacy outposts will be handled at their end of life? It would be nice to know, so we can act in the short term. So far, the plan is the same that the one shown during the first dev blog on structures. The interesting part however is that Outposts can be depreciated faster than Starbases, since they don't offer reactions. More details as we get them. Any idea on how reimbursement for outposts and upgrades will occur?

Sacrificing a freighter to get that medium structure seems like small potatoes when it comes to wormholes" "A Medium structure hull may be deployed from an Industrial, Large and X-Large require a freighter" Dev Blog So a Medium can be done from a DST. Freighter does Large (and then can dock) Reading w/o panic is hard.

Rek Seven Hidden Agenda Deep Space Engineering 2077	Posted - 2015.10.26 16:43:00 - [34] - Quote I'm pretty disappointed with the list of fittings. I was hoping that we would be able to do something cool like cloak the structure or at least making it invisible to D-scan, so we could have a secret base somewhere... I may have missed it but will XL Citadels be deployable in wormhole space? Dear eve players, please try and use the word "content" less and instead, be specific. Thanks

Medium, Large and X-Large structures will use a version of the Sovereignty capture mechanic, which means they will only be attacked through the use of the Entosis module. What information in here is reliable and what is not? Clearly it's not up to date. Outdated. They use HP, pew pew and a maximum DPS cap.

Can't seem to find anything online to clarify those units. Seconds. If those were in minutes you would be waiting 1805 days to manufacture a X-L Citadel . As Aryth pointed out this basically means that when you buy a 700b bpo, you make copies every 5 days (before bonuses). That means a single BPO will effectively flood the market with copies. It means that anyone buying a bpo will have more copies than they can possibly use, which they'll sell in jita...driving down the cost of a bpc to miniscule prices on your 700b bpo. It means it's a really dumb purchase and it's hard to even justify as a means to ensure you always have the ability to build an XL, or to make a profit, or really any reason. Its especially odd how much less time it is to copy these things than a titan bpo, which requires copies to be usable, and which costs 1/10th of what this costs. It puts these bpos in a really awkward spot for a 700b investment that just doesn't seem to make a lot of sense. You don't get exclusivity, you don't have any hope of a profit, I'm not sure why anyone would buy one instead of waiting around for someone to not do the math.

Those capitals have a purpose, and are useful for a lot of things. Its not about the cost, its about the usefulness. A freighter that can't leave is only useful for one thing, deploying large and XL citadels. Why would they make us build a ship that is entirely and completely useless out of deploying large structures? What's wrong with POCO type gantries? And if you want to look at cost, consider that currently, you can store your capitals at a tower with an XL SMA for less then a billion ISK. With these changes, you need to invest in a 7+ billion isk structure, and then another 2 billion isk to build the freighter whose only job is to drop off the citadel. I could have used that isk to build more capitals! Fear and Loathing in Internet Spaceships

The price of T2 salvage will go so high no one will ever be able to afford T2 rigs for anything ever again. thats my biggest concern here as rigs are usually a fair chunk of a fully fitted ship as it is, surely there are enough worthless salvage components that could be used as the bulk for the new rigs instead. T3's need to be versatile not have T2 resists, OP dps and tank obsoleting T2 ships entirely.

And you're putting the BPO price at 6B instead of 500 millions for a Large POS (250 for a Medium, 125 for a Small.) Nice way to tell part of the players "Get the **** out.", taking what we already have and demanding 6B (plus the prod cost \o/) to get it back. Citadels are not the only structure type that will replace starbases. Starbases will also not be removed from the game until their functionality is fully replaced.

EvilweaselSA GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 1174	Posted - 2015.10.26 17:08:40 - [53] - Quote CCP Ytterbium wrote: We can always tweak copy times around, those numbers aren't final, just a first draft. Which number would you have in mind? Copy time or cost probably should be changed - I think copy time is the big outlier here. You have some idea of how many of these structures you expect will exist but my guess is a few dozen at most in the first year. You shouldn't be able to make many more bpcs than structures intended to be deployed. You need a bpc market of course - not every null alliance can be expected to put up 700b to get their foot in the door - but you've got to have it so the bpcs any one bpo can produce are some fraction of expected demand. With a base build time of 30 days, I'd set copy time to at least 30 days and probably much more - unlike supercapitals, there is no need for you to copy this bpo to produce with it safely. You can produce in-station off the bpo itself so copy time can be a freebie for when the bpo is not in use and can be longer than the production time, even several multiples of it without it being a big problem for the market. The bpo cost of these is 10x what a titan bpo costs, the bpc copy time is ~1/6th of a titan bpo copy time, and most titan bpcs are pretty cheap. Leviathans are the only one where the bpo isn't glutted but even those run only 1-2b each. I'd probably make it a several month base copy time so that you get people buying the bpos initially so they can get a leg up on deploying them and use of the bpo is tilted more towards manufacturing than copying. At a minimum producing them and copying them should be roughly the same time or at a minimum at the ratio of t2 bpos. Copying in 1/6th of the time to build it seems way, way off.

Captain StringfellowHawk Forsaken Reavers Goonswarm Federation 257	Posted - 2015.10.26 17:11:06 - [56] - Quote If racial fuel is being moved away from in caps, and now in citadels with the removals of POS's, just make one two of ice needed and jack the amounts on it up. It's goto be easier converting one of the current ice types that are generic to each area vs making bpos or convention kits for nullsec. What is being done besides the Structure fuel with the rest of the racial ice? If its not being repurposed its sitting in bellt a wastes system resources. Make some story line lore about a new mining technique that extracts some new element from the ice and that makes the fuel. This element is found in all racial ices, so it just gets added to the table and reuse some image for it in cargo. That has to be easier then making conversion tables for each fuel type?
Querns GBS Logistics and Fives Support Goonswarm Federation 2206	Posted - 2015.10.26 17:11:33 - [57] - Quote Regarding freighter requirements in wormholes, remember that, with sufficient trust, you only need one freighter for an unlimited number of deployed citadels. It also puts a measure of security for your wormhole, as enemies attempting to set up inside your hole will have to anchor a medium to build their OWN freighter.
