Lubaduba	Posted - 2007.02.25 00:57:00 - [1] Mmm. so frigs have the 1mn, cruisers the 10mn, BS the 100 mn..........are the battlecruisers the slowboats of EvE or what? my tempest flies faster than my nano fitted battlecruiser. that just cant be right. WTB 50 mn microwarpdrive!
Imechal Ravpeim International Multi-Player Consortium Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.02.25 01:02:00 - [2] Battlecruisers are heavy cruisers. Frigs weigh 1mill kg Cruisers 10mill kg Battleships 100mill kg Battlecruisers are something like 13 or 14 mill... So they only get a small boost from AB/MWDs
Lubaduba	Posted - 2007.02.25 01:04:00 - [3] thats what i mean - i cant believe that in a hightech world like eve the ingeneers didnt invent a microwarpdrive that coudl fasten BCs like all the other type of ships

NeoNeTiC SniggWaffe Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2007.02.25 01:53:00 - [6] 10MN MWDs are enough on a BC. Try to fit named Inertial Stabilizers, works like a charm. Nano-BS going faster than nano-BCs are another story though. Smaller ships under same fitting conditions should be faster/more agile imho. Let's see what CCP comes up with. And asking to give BCs modules which render cruisers obsolete in every term is just wrong, sorry. NeoNeTiC EVE-Speed-Labs
PredatorPT New Dawn Corp	Posted - 2007.02.25 01:58:00 - [7] How about 1000mn microwarp drives while we're at it? Nano-avatars FTW!!
mazzilliu Caldari Sniggerdly Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2007.02.25 02:20:00 - [8] i want a 5MN mwd for my sabre so i can go 5 times as fast ______________________ go away

They want to avoid people sticking 5mn mwds on inties and have them go at silly speeds and other such nonsense. Or even using 5mn ABs on inties and having an effect similar to a 1mn MWD. ------------------- "There is one rule for the industrialist and that is: Make the best quality of goods possible at the lowest cost possible, paying the highest wages possible."

All they have to do is give said modules some INSANE fitting requirements and then do what they do with gang mods and strip miners etc. Ie, something like 50% reduced fitting reqs when put on the appropriate ship type

hotgirl933	Posted - 2007.02.25 08:54:00 - [13] gisti and factional ABs and MWDs should fit the bill nickley
Max Hardcase Art of War Cult of War	Posted - 2007.02.25 09:00:00 - [14] Edited by: Max Hardcase on 25/02/2007 09:03:11 Edited by: Max Hardcase on 25/02/2007 09:00:22 Not quite...they still give the baseline thrust boost thats used in the final speed calculations. But for fairness's sake there should be 2mn and 15 mn boosters. Their problems are easily solved with the role bonus to fitting requirements. A second solution could be a thrust role bonus on the right sized booster class for BC's and Dessies. ( think 25% ish ) On the other hand I wouldnt mind some code to make it possible to only fit the "right" sized module to a ship, would mean they could make rigs with fewer required components for smaller ships.
Reggie Stoneloader eXceed Inc. INVICTUS.	Posted - 2007.02.25 09:27:00 - [15] No, destroyers and battlecruisers are "in-between" ship classes, they should be awkward. If a battlecruiser was just a cruiser with more HP and weapon hardpoints, what good would a cruiser be? They should be slow and clumsy, like a battleship, but back cruiser-sized guns. The fact that battleships aren't currently slow and clumsy is, in my opinion, an oversight that should be remedied.

You would then need to specify a lot of areas for that. My Cyclone runs a Large Shield Booster 2. Not a module that easily goes on a Cruiser (if you want to fit much else). Battlecruisers in naval terms, were ships that had BS type attributes (gun size or armour amount) but were a lot faster than Battleship class vessels. Many navies went down the more bigger guns route, and the Germans went down the more armour with Cruiser size guns route. BC shouldn't replace Cruiser but compliment it, adding damage and tank but losing out on speed and agility. Pretty much as they do now. Akkarin <3 - Immy
Max Hardcase Art of War Cult of War	Posted - 2007.02.25 11:50:00 - [17] I'm all for choice but if the DEV's worries are such that we wont get decently effective boosters for Dessies and BC's ( acceleration is bad with the undersized boost amount) I'm not against that mechanism, and as I said, we can only hope for cruiser/frigate rigs. Presently I'm not going to stick a rig that requires 300 odd comps on a cruiser or smaller.

The fact that battleships aren't currently slow and clumsy is, in my opinion, an oversight that should be remedied. I also think there should be more difference between BS <> cruisers + BC <> frigates and destroyers in moving between the battlefields ( warpspeed ).
Malashek Vatrii Caldari	Posted - 2007.02.25 13:20:00 - [19] Originally by: PredatorPT How about 1000mn microwarp drives while we're at it? Nano-avatars FTW!! What the hell would that be used for.. ramming stations? * * * * Moo.
