Papa said that since the new patch if you go to your agent witht a BS you are more likely to get a kill mission than a currier one.
I do missions in cruiser (an Osprey) and since Wednesday I been geeting a lot more of kill missions
I actually lost and implant oportunity cause my Agent gives implants with currier missions and on Wed the first mission i've got was an important-kill not and important-currier (aka implant) as I was getting before
Any one experiencing the same??
You know how to get get more currier missions (maybe with a frigate or and indy?)
(i don't like the kill ones because killing a 85K + 3 35K rats with and Osprey takes too much time  )
Thx

And what about all the new stuff that appeared on wednesday???
I mean I'm just asking (not complaining or anything like that) if that thing about the ship you are flying is not on....is maybe that my agent is smoking weird stuff again

Doubt that that is really the cause of you not getting an implant mission. I haven't seen an implant missions since Castor, and most of the time I do courier missions. However, each important mission is a important-kill. So even though my ship (a Vexor, by the way) seems to attract courier missions, I don't get important-courier missions but important-kill missions.

I complete kill missions in a KESTREL.
With cruise missles and sheild extenders.
And alot of distance.
Now I know I can take out 2 35k and a Thief in a Kestrel. Will my agent know this ?
I bet not .
Will I have to take a Juggernaut when the mini will do ?
I have all ship classes but will the agent know that ?
I bet not.
Hmmm will as ever have to wait and see.

Isn't that a whole lot of isk (or minerals if you have the BP) being vaporized when you only use cruise missiles?

Yup, but you can do the work quick and overall you get ahead money-wise due to the bonus payments and gear (plus there's always those courier missions)
Basically, doing missions in Kestrel is for fun rather than a way to get rich fast. (though again, there's always those courier missions ;)

It's true about the fun factor, at least. Using a frigate against bigger enemies is entertaining. Like my Incursus against a Serpentis Cheif Sentinel. It took a few minutes of plinking, but it never got me whitin blaster range. :)

This is a point I raised in the sticky patch thread above. It will give you missions based on what ship you have *active* at the time you talk to your agent. However you can always change ships once you have accepted a mission. What each ship is classified as is still a mystery to me though as no details were given.
I should imagine that each class of ship (cruiser/frig) will have a sub class attached to them for agent missions now. Since some cruisers make better cargo/miner ships than others that make better attack ships, and the same goes for a frigate, then I should imagine that it will be based on that. (Though you never know)
For example, Riffter=combat ship / Probe=courrier ship
OR
Exequror=courrier ship / Thorax=combat ship.
The problem is that any ship can do anything in eve, though some do it better than others. For example, many people use a thorax for mining due to the higher laser count than other cruisers and the big drone bay. Though ccp originally intended for this ship to be a combat ship.
What I would advise to CCP and the devs is that when the patch is out, they should include a full listing of these ship classes for agents in the patch notes so people don't go on their expectations that might be different.

Why not allow the player to ask for specific missions. Depending on standing the agent may or may not go with what the player asked for.
