BEST FRIGATE IN THE GAME EDITION

>Can I make enough ISK to PLEX during the trial?
If you have to ask, you can't do it.

>I just started, what should I do?
Do the Opportunities then all the Career Agent missions; they give you ISK, ships, skillbooks and teach you basics. Talk to players and try to find a corp. The game is only as boring as you are.

>Is it too late to start playing EVE?
No.

if the +x% scan strength doesn't mean you can probe in fewer cycles, it isn't getting it done faster

yes it does.
it could mean the difference between 2 scans or 3, between having to look at the dot, move it, shrink it and scanning again.

Now multiply it by 100 or whatever many shit you'll be scanning and it literally means getting extra scans for free.

you just missed the ever only try eve for free in steam I've ever seen by like a week.

your best bet is to buy the starting edition with wallet and then buy the plex.

then convert the steam account a real account so you can log in normally through the launcher without using steam, but you will be still able to buy plex, aur and subscribe that account through steam if you want.

>>153793481
Which is the reason they should be price balanced.
>>
>>153793481
You mean they'd get on par with other frigates.
>>
>>153793608
No, because they have resists, range, and other benefits.

T3Ds are too cheap, or AFs are too expensive. With cruisers about 10M, I'd say it's the latter.
>>
>AFs

why do so many people give a shit about this class
>>
>>153793597
well for 30m+ I can get a cruiser to do everything that the AF can do and better. AF's are terrible in their speed, agility, cap, fitting and pretty much everything.

They got balanced way back in 2009 and were never touched again
>>
>>153793814
afs are better at damage mitigation, but damage mitigation is a joke in eve

>>153793754
It's a t2 hull. All of them are expensive. It has the same price as ceptors or covops.
>>
>>153793928
ceptors and covops have huge demand and speciic niches

AFs don't
>>
>>153793972
It's a T2 hull. It needs moonshit. Moonshit costs money.
>>
>>153794054
There's no place for them with cruisers and T3Ds existing at their prices.
>>
>why not just delete frigs because cruisers exist lol xD
>>
>>153793782
>why do people that play this game care about this 8 ships in the game that are completely worthless?

what ships do you like?
what if I buff everything around the type of ship you like to fly and leave them like that for 6 years to rot in mediocrity?

And even if you don't fly them, you should care that the game is kept updated on every aspect, or you risk having the devs stop giving a shit and having it all over the place with outdated modules.
>>
>>153794223
The suggestion was either lowering their price or increasing t3ds'.
>>
>>153794229
why do you like a set of frigates that have always been shittily designed trash?

what particularly about very slow frigates with fitting and cap problems appeals to you

I just pretend this class doesn't exist, it doesn't matter. they have never been essential for anything
>>
>>153794292
I've always been down to increasing the costs of materials needed to build T3Ds.
Even as a fag that flies them a lot.
Killing one and losing one should mean more, right now its too much effort and firepower needed to take down a decent fit and piloted one just to be worth 80mil on average.
>>
>>153794292
You can't just increase the price because you want to. And even if you did put them on the same pricelevel as navy frigs, they'd still be inferior. Comet and slicer totally outclass the assfrigs in every single way. Hookbill is dank as fuck, althought people use harpies for some long range memeing. Firetail is somewhere inbetween i guess.
>>
>>153794445
>always
except that's not true, they were widely used and were very popular before T3Ds shat all over them, just because you didn't play back then does not mean that time didn't exist.
pretending things don't exist is dodging a problem, like I said, once it happens to something you like and remember liking, you'll regret ignoring the past issues.
>>
Would there be something bad about AF's being better then other frigates for actually fighting? I mean, covops go stealthmode, cepters are super fucking fast and bubble immune (i.e. great for tackling)...I don't really see anything wrong with AF's being legitimately better in a straight up fight. Honestly they should pretty much just has the same speeds as T1 frigs but be more combat capable, and see if they can't drop the hull price from 40m or whatever it is now to like 20m.

Not really sure how AF's and dessies should compare to each other though. Perhaps a rock-paper-scissors thing where AF's are good at killing cruisers (in 2-3man gangs), cruisers are good at killing dessies, and dessies are good at killing AF's/other frigates?
>>

>>
>>153794551
Frigates have speed, so there's no place for a subclass that just tops them in DPS and EHP, not to mention range..

Dessies having awful speed is a problem also, for fun.

No they weren't, AF's were already superceded by T1 buffs in 2010 and 2013 expansions. Same with cruisers vs AF's Frigs and Cruisers got good rebalances but AF's haven't been touched since 2009.

wow nice, unlike t1 ships who do not shoot things. great t2 role you thought up there bro

and yes, mwd sig reduction is a kiting bonus. if you spend more than a very small % of the fight burning around with mwd on in a short range ship, you've lost. you aim to mwd as little as possible, and the sig bonus is infinitely less useful for you than on a kiting ship

Essentially AF's should be good at killing T1 cruisers in 2-3 man gangs, T1 cruisers should be good at killing dessies (which are slower and bigger), and dessies should be good at killing AF's.

Alright, AF idea:
>Keep tank roughly the same
>MWD sig reduction bonus stays
>Speed is actually OK if you're hunting for cruisers, speedcreep is bad and we don't need another fucking class of 3000m/s+ ships flying around
>Fitting reduction and damage to medium guns (a la attack BC's), Hawk/Veng get HAMs, Ishkur gets med drones
>Range reduction to medium guns to around 8k optimal 5k falloff (so you have to skirmish-brawl and also can't ownzone other frigs while sitting on a gate)
>Low sensor strength to increase lock times against other frigs and increase susceptibility to EWAR (Same reason as above + counterplay)
>Low capacitor amounts, high cap regen rate so that they are more vulnerable to being capped out by medium neuts (counterplay again).

Honestly I don't think we really need 8 of these bloody things in the game, and it would probably be OK if we got rid of half of them.

Well the speed is seriously lacking, some of these ships especially the armor ones can't get above 2km/s with a MWD so its seriously lacking. This is due in part to their ridiculously high mass and low agility.

I think their cap has to be higher and comporable, medium shield and armor reps eat a lot of cap and if you get below a certain threshold you're gonna cap out no matter how good your regen is. They need cap thats better than T1 frigs because a lot of them now have explicitly worse cap than T1 frigs.

>low sensor strength to increase lock times
you mean scan res, sensor strength is for resisting jams and probing.

I don't really like the AF medium weapon thing. It seems disingenuous, just stick to small guns and give them enough fitting to fit the high end weapon systems like Focused Beams, Light Neutron Blasters and 200mm guns.

if the recharge is high enough you can still creep under the neuts and keep the tank/guns rolling

>>
>>153801563
>if the recharge is high enough you can still creep under the neuts and keep the tank/guns rolling
Not really

Low cap capacitance means even if one of your modules draws under the 33% threshold you'll cap out extremely quick. Its better to have large capacitance and slightly lesser regen rate. Even then don't fuck with the capacitor beyond making it better than T1 frigs, theres no need for a gimmick, 2 cycles of a medium neut will cap out any frig super easy.

You're getting the first part of this review wrong. #1 mistake: This game isn't about mining. Mining is just a result of people needing to get that building material in order to build that thing so they can A) sell it for profit or B) use it to kill other players. In the end B is the only alternative, but if you can make a profit on the way, it's even better. People who mine just to mine aren't dumb, however. Some people get a lot of I. meditation out of it, and there's actually a pretty cool element of II. socialization in it. So yeah, to preemptively sum of this comment about mining: The best ship in EVE is the friendship, and that's why this game has endured for so long.
>>
>>153808045
Great review but your dig at miners wasn't necessary. I know some miners. Some of them run huge operations, and they enjoy it. They do it wqhile they pay attention to their families at night. I knew a guy who mined while he drove cross country. The mining community is very social. They like that they can hang with their friends, keep it casual and still progress in the game. This is what eve gets right, it's a sand box, people make of it what they will.

Step 1. Find an active or passive shield repper, preferably passive
Step 2. Engage at 3km.
Step 3. Wear him down past peak regen or until his boosters run out, if RLML or RHML fit just laugh as you run 1 repper during the 30s he can't shoot.

They use less cpu and aren't especially expensive. Avg price is 18mil, to protect a 200mil mining barge 40mil in specialised hardeners isn't a terrible investment.

>>153834526
I went with pic related instead. It can rep 2000+ against EM, over 1000 against hybrids or 1300+ against pure explosive. This is with a standard exile of course (remember kids winners do drugs) and the reasoning for this is because of the adaptive hardener being so strong on this kind of ship.

Loving the exploration thing too as roughly a month old, subbed early on to get cloak and not worrying about plex is definitely good, especially as you can use your isk to inject.

>>153851187
>>153850727
A shield nag is probably better 99% of the time,
but you take the load off the tackle by using this moros because once you land at 0 on the carrier you can assrape him the whole way because it's just not possible for him to get under your guns at 25m/s. So it predicates a few things, getting the drop on the enemies capital assets or in a situation where you want to limit yourself to one capital in a hotdrop then a double web moros can defend itself much better than a nag which will have 0 chance to hit anything smaller than a space station near it, and wont be providing any measurable benefit to its support fleet with its presence unlike scram/web moros because scram/web is always useful for trash disposal.

This is just the same argument we've always seen with shield vs armour tanking, shield is really easy to push in to massive performance but you lose all EWAR in the process.

API is literally nothing but statistics and data about your in-game doings/assets/mail etc

Its literally like plugging one of those heart monitors on your phone when you go out running and then giving the information to some random stranger, he doesn't magically get control of your body, he can't infiltrate your home by knowing your bpm or burned calories.

Noob here, I'm thinking about buying a plex, selling it, and getting a couple skill injectors. Is this a good idea?

I have about 3 million SP right now, and a general set of mainly fighting/fitting skills right now. I have all race's cruisers trained to level 3 (no battlecruisers or above, though).

If I get a couple skill injectors, what should I use them on?

Should I max out my drone skills?
Should I get a bunch of manufacturing/research skills (or should I make a highsec alt for that?)
Should I do various specialization skills to fly T2 stuff?

Any tips about "highly important" skills to max out for a beginner?
>>
>>153862316
>Noob here, I'm thinking about buying a plex, selling it, and getting a couple skill injectors. Is this a good idea?
Yea you could do this

How many SP do you have right now?

Also what you choose to spend that SP on is up to you, what do you like to do?
>>
>>153862316
>Any tips about "highly important" skills to max out for a beginner?
advanced weapon upgrades 5
>>
>>153862769
>How many SP do you have right now?
3 million or so

>what do you like to do?
I'm still thinking about it, there are a lot of things that are interesting to me

I am in a nullsec corp, and I like to pvp in small groups (i fly light tackle and never get any killmails, only lossmails but it's still pretty fun)

I want to get started in manufacturing and researching bpo's, but I will need all level 5 skills to even consider that, otherwise the big, established guys will undercut me out of the market. I am currently getting a Venture bpo to time efficiency 10, not sure if that will be useful later or not.

For money, I'm right now ratting in asteroid belts, getting the bounty and reprocessing the loot.

I've heard incursions pay massive ISK, but I don't have skills for that, right now.

>>153862918
That's a good idea, thanks.
I only have weapon upgrades at level 4 right now

you might afford 2 injectors with one plex right now, MAYBE, if you sell the plex well and buy the injectors well.

I would get all basic fitting skills at least to IV
get a frigate and small weapon system to V and then light drones/drones to V and supports to IV

don't bother flying T2 shit, pirate shit or battlecruisers yet.
T1 cruisers are alright but you won't get good fights regularly on your own compared to T1 frigs, because you get to choose your fights without a problem as a frigate and they are extremely cheap, dying means nothing, which means you get to learn faster.

I would recommend Gallente for T1 cruisers and frigs.


Just in general, nav skills, targeting skills, tackle skills you want them all at III mandatory, and only get them to IV when they unlock something you need, for now.

Don't train for manufactring, research or anything not PVP related on a PVP pilot.
Get a new pilot for that if you really want, but be aware that its hard to turn a steady profit with manufacturing and research right now if you are new.

In short, keep flying T1 ships for a while while you learn but try to learn T2 modules for those ships.
Weapon and tanking modules come to mind as first to get.
>>
>>153862918
why would you recommend that to a new player?
it unlocks nothing worthwhile for him and it its a 1,5mil sp skill to V
The small bonus of pg it gives is not worth it compared to all the other skills available.
>>
>>153863394
>I want to get started in manufacturing and researching bpo's,
Thats usually an expensive endeavor because it takes a lot of money to get BPO's people want.

You really don't need to take it so personally. Because they don't, either.
>>
>>153863835
All the races are fine but Gallente has some top tier ships like Vexor, Thorax, Tristan, Atron, Maulus, Celestis, Fed Navy Comet, Catalyst, Algos, VNI and all of their battlecruisers.

Also just because you can use T2 modules does not mean you want to fit everything T2 on your T1 ship, sometimes being cheap is the smart choice and the advantage.
Having high risk tackle atrons for your corp be as cheap as possible that cost less than 2mil is smarter than losing 8mil atrons back to back.
And only use your solo T2 atrons for actual combat where you need every bit of damage and tank.

When you decide to fly cruisers, active fits are very hard for new players to fly properly, brick tanking or nano passive is the smarter choices (brick being the easiest)

Gallente also has really good ships to PvE btw
>>
>implying all those ships are top tier
>>
>>153846783
It's the exact same thing without a prop. The myrm can null dda for bulkheads.
>>
>>153867010
I can drop 2 bulkheads, have more tank than you a shit more damage, your myrm only has a MJD as well
>>
>>153867009
only the maulus and celestis are not technically top tier, but they are good ships for a newbie to have as his disposal to use with his corp

Whats a good way to start using a stratios if I'm used to using a covert ops frigate?

I don't want to try it and grossly over/underestimate its abilities.
>>
>>153868492
for scanning?
no reason to ever upgrade from a astro or Helios
>>
>>153868620
or buzzard
>>
>>153868620
umm I'm getting used to/pretty good at exploring in a covert ops and I want to expand my versatility when I explore.

Like my Helios is super awesome if I just want to hack/scan shit. But I'd also like to be able to go on long trips through wormholes and shit and creep on people while they are ratting and stuff. Carry a mobile depot and refit for PvP from exploring/scanning.

I'm falling in love with a longer view of exploring, not just getting loot and getting out, but setting up wormhole chains and information having sites pre scanned down and stuff.

I could also use a tengu but I'm not sure if thats what I want.

Then basically the Stratios is a VNI with more tank and pg/cpu but no tracking bonus.
You just hug people, neut them to offline and be done with it.
Nothing complicated about it, just don't use guns.
Consider investing into augmented drones for the max dps combo drone squad.
Bring tons of cap boosters, and container trick to fit as many as possible.

If you have a session timer (e.g. your cyno ship just exploded, you left a fleet, etc), you have to wait it out. Other than that, landing at 0 guarantees you get in. It's the whole reason JFs are said to be unkillable if you aren't retarded.

>>153908689
I think 2 years is long enough to form an opinion based on all the facts available to a significant play period, rather than some scrub doing 2 weeks and getting fed up and having only a shallow impression of how it is. It's very rare to see someone new to a thing walk in, walk out and give an accurate review of what they just did or saw, I'm not one of those people I needed a longer time to realise what WH are. They are pre-supercapitals EVE online dynamics, if T3C mass was nerfed you'd see an even greater variety of fleets in WH and probably see more brawling HAC/CS fleets like days gone by.

are people that pay to win normall inclined to spend that much? not to mention the fact that if they're inexperience they'll lose everything if they make the slightest mistake. it just doesn't seem appropriate to call eve pay to win considering the learning curve and cost of using cash to get that far ahead. you could always pay to win from the beginning by buying characters anyway, skill injectors and plex just make it easier for sellers, really.

You made a definitive statement. I disproved said statement. You then changed your argument to imply that the mmo in question has to have a certain level of popularity to disprove your argument. That's the very definition of the fallacy in question.

Either way, there are several other MMOs, many more popular than DCU, that have survived after going F2P, such as SWTOR. Any way you slice it your original statement is objectively incorrect.

I'm so excited to play a game where you have massive restrictions unless you pay. And you can't grind SP but you still have to grind to pay for your equipment that you lose when someone without restrictions ganks you. So it's like if you just don't log in then you won't lose anything and can still level up. Which is super appealing to me.
I'm reading the tutorials right now to get ready for some epic gameplay.

>Probably the clearest point to emerge so far has been a request to limit simultaneous log on for Alphas. The concern here is obviously justified as swarms of free alts could potentially have any number of negative effects on the game. That said, there’s significant complexity here, especially on the technical side. We are exploring options to address this and also consulting our security and customer support team, as most of the negative behavior would depend on multi-plexing or automation, both of which are big no-no's. But, when you guys say you will find ways to break it we believe you, so, we’re looking at our options and will update you when we settle on an approach.

You're all forgetting one major thing about EVE going f2p.

Literally no one gives a shit about this game outside the preexisting autist community.

It had a free weekend on steam and the login numbers weren't even noticeable. It's been on banner ads all over the place for over a decade.

999/1000 people who would actually care have already tried it or are playing it.

What matters is the ways in which existing neckbeards will abuse the new system.

You mean CCP abusing it by automatically making millions of "active" zombie accounts overnight. All the bridge jumping, wristing cutting broadcast4reps victims being resurrected to pad sub figures. The final prophecy of Greyscale has come to pass, truly it is the end of days.

And going F2P is not going to change that, at all.

There is still no good player tutorial in place (lol opportunities), which seems like the bare fucking minimum when you're going to open up your game to the masses.

No, the game is still as complex as ever. Most F2P kiddies are still not going to be able to cope with it just because they can now play Eve for free. They will get blown up by some rats or in lowsec, blame "muh spreadsheet simulator" and fuck off back to the next F2P mmo on the list that's actually mildly entertaining in their eyes.

The only way they are going to appeal to F2P players is by dumbing the game down.
>>
>>153945940

That's my point

99% of that 900m people are retards and won't play it
>>
>>153945732

then why are they doing it?

oh right, the cash shop thats incoming
>>
>>153946072

I think most players are just put off by the fundamentals of the game. Like clicking in space.

Unless they change the game to be practically unrecognisable from what it is now, it's not going to get new players.

No doubt CCP will try to just dumb it down though

That means dead people will be active subs again. Also note the Alpha and Omega symbolism. CCP is literally resurrecting accounts because it's the end of days. lmfao
>>
>>153946080
>eve will have 9 active million players
I'll believe it when I see it.

that being said, f2p will increase player numbers with returning players that don't want to or can't pay (or play enough) to keep their account subbed 100% of the time.
>>
>>153946308
Well, they tried implementing WASD flying. Of course it's utter garbage because this engine wasn't designed for that kinda shit (>muh 1 second ticks)

Short of creating an entire new game, the way you interact with your ship will never fundamentally change.
>>
So what happens when my for example 15M char runs our of sub? It reverts to 5M?
>>
>>153946503
>they tried implementing WASD flying

mostly just to shut people up who won't stop asking for it for 10 years without realising that it's pointless
>>
>>153946490

99% of them wouldn't like it, that doesn't mean 100% will try.

More like 100k will try it and we'll get 100 new players.

>>153946503

And thus it will never attract most people they're going for with this move. I think the biggest potential growth is returning players having a taste and then resubbing like addicts (me)
>>
>>153946612
any skills you have trained that aren't a part of the available skills for your race's alpha state will be "grayed out". they will be disabled, but you still have them and they will be reactivated when your account is subbed and becomes "omega".

>>153947270
No, letting you use skills you trained doesn't give you more reasons to sub. Make a gallente alt, it's free after all.
>>
>>153947451
you can train the skills within the alpha restrictions that you may have skipped. this is mainly a way to give people more time to decide if they like the game and it gives former players more incentive to come back. the demand for plex will go up because of this, which means the people that buy the plex for cash are going to buy more to satisfy the market. the price of plex will probably go up too, which may give players that play purely on plex more incentive to sub since it will be harder to get the plex.
>>
>>153947879

Don't take memes so seriously

It seems like nobody here knows why the game isn't popular. Sub fee, WASD, overview commands, SP -- whatever your argument, has CCP stated any of this? IIRC, the only neg they've made at their design philosphy is that they provide external rewards where there should be an internal drive to play and master the game.
>>
>>153948009
I already have everything alpha's can train.

I mean, who doesn't. Half of the skills are support skills and they cap at like 3 or 4 so they're quick to train.

Of course, that's not to say they aren't pissing most of this money away. Their failed projects like dust and WoD for example, but that's on CCP. That's got nothing to do with how profitable eve itself is.

>>153948970
Do you seriously think that alpha characters are worth multiboxing?

>>153949018
What an insane advantage.
>>
>>153949161
It's literally free gank alts
>>
>>153948864
Multibox a ton of miners

Multibox half a freighter gank fleet with completely disposable alts. No more need for tags/dealing with faction police

Put alts in every wormhole. Doesn't expire so you'll always have an entrance to whatever hole you want, completely free.

Massive amounts of disposable cruiser alts to blob whatever you want. Tackled while ratting? Warp in your shitfit RLML caracals to clear your 2 billion isk ratter.

Probably tons more uses that aren't immediately apparant.
>>
>>153949315
As if people aren't ganking a shitton.

Alts that can't cloak, and scan awfully bad.

>>153949332
>Warp in your shitfit RLML caracals to clear your 2 billion isk ratter.

You overestimate people's capabilities for multiboxing.


Either way, I'm not saying that none of this is entirely implausible. But all these scenarios sound like they'll be very uncommon. It's not like people who want to multibox tend to be stopped by subscriptions as it is.

Did you miss the part where this is EVE, friend?

if something is exploitable, it is going to be exploited. Hilariously. To extremes none of us can comprehend.
>>
>>153949657
>But all these scenarios sound like they'll be very uncommon
The ganking alone will definitely see a huge increase.

You can start training accounts in batches so when you finally reach a low enough sec status you can switch to the next batch of alpha and just keep that shit rolling.

Incidentally I should invest in catalysts and thrasher BPOs.
>>
>>153949883
How is more ganking a bad thing
>>
>>153949657
The Eve community (or at least a good core of major autists) find extreme pleasure in exploiting the shit out of gameplay mechanics before they get nerfed.

They will likewise find a way to turn this in their favor in ways you cannot even imagine.

Remember when they completely fucked with the faction warfare system so they made literally trillions?
>>
>>153950019
It's not "because it's ganking".

You're giving an extreme buff to a certain playstyle and CCP doesn't even seem to realize it.

That's why they added trading SP? Because of how much they were trying to make EVE not change.

What if 4 years ago everyone bought 3 plex a month? And now nobody buys a plex a month? I know they have to keep track of this in their accounts but maybe the money for WoD and Dust wasn't so much pissed away money as it was pissing away the future of EVE.

You sound like you're new. Don't pretend to be an expert if you haven't played for more than a year.

>>153949883
Ganking is super rampant as it is.

>>153950114
There is a limit to how explotaible this is. It's gonna be a shitton of effort for minimum gains. Why bother with 300 gank thrashers with 600 alpha when you can just multibox 10 nados and still get a profit?

People have been buying characters on the bazaar for years. Skill injectors/extractors didn't add anything new in that regard.
>>
>>153950730
Rude
>>
>>153950463
No I'm saying if you bought 3 years worth of game time years ago. Then CCP says they are super successful and borrows based on that game time to develop a new game. The game is a flop and they lose the money. Now you might think oh hey who cares they still get $15 per month off me when I cash in the PLEX. I'm just saying maybe they already spent all the PLEX money and the stockpiles of PLEX in the game don't make them any money because they spent it already.
In that case they wouldn't be getting near 400k a month.
Of course I'm probably wrong I doubt Icelandic companies would do anything so reckless.
>>
>>153951449
Nobody does this anon.

Well, I'm sure a few autists have, but most people will not sub for longer than a year. I believe CCP has gone on record saying their 3 month subscription package is the most popular.

>>
>>153952545
Thing is, there is no win condition in eve.

In most other mmo's, you can finish the last raid, you can become the #1 in arena pvp or #1 guild or whatever the fuck.

In eve all that shit either doesn't exist or is completely meaningless.
>>
>>153952671
Eve university's wiki is pretty much the only eve resource right now.

There are occasionally good articles, blogs or youtube videos about a certain aspect of the game but nothing that comes close to Eve uni's wiki.

Except fittings. Fuck their fittings, you should completely ignore them.
>>
>>153952765

Rankings etc is only a result of p2w, not the primary problem. p2w in essence is players paying for items that give them better stats and an advantage over other players.

In eve, being able to buy skills, expensive ships and better modules is p2w. The difference is that those things are still available with isk, though getting more expensive and the gap between old and new players only grows because of inflation.
>>
>>153953186
Surely the difference between alpha and omega clones removes that final distinction. You HAVE to pay to compete which everyone who currently plays will think is fine but how many new players will think that's a good model. Or even how many vets are going to come back to fly t1 frigates with their 100m sp.
>>
>>153953881

But anon, T1 frigates are a lot of fun :)

Also like I said earlier, I really don't think there is going to be a large influx of new players. Returning vets will eve sub or remember why they left. The only actually new players will likely be friends of existing ones that never tried it out before.

Stop spewing bullshit conspiracies based on no evidence. You can't even be bothered to look up more to back up your opinions, because if you did you'd see that the opposite is true.

On top of all that, most major releases that went f2p were developed by companies that have multiple titles or at least other major on-going projects. CCP has neither.

>so who would put ships in a carrier to bring them into combat
No one does this. Your idea makes the current system more complicated and does nothing.

Theres nothing wrong with bridging and theres nothing wrong with carriers. Removing bridging then "actively docking" inside a carrier solves nothing.

I know no one does this, because you cannot put piloted ships in a carrier, and because bridging exists. how dumb are you

so you think an unkillable titan teleporting people without exposing itself or teleporting itself is fine. you think just f1 teleporting a fleet around is ok

>>153970110
>I know no one does this, because you cannot put piloted ships in a carrier, and because bridging exists. how dumb are you
So your idea to a non-existent problem is to remove and rework the already working system just to put ships into a carrier so they can jump into battle because somehow you don't like bridging which works the same way, perfectly fine already? You're stupid.

>unkillable titan
yea because you don't know where that POS is right? You don't have any hunters or spies looking at moons or spying on fleets to know when they're bridging? Are you just pretending to be clueless?

>you just think F1 teleporting is ok
You've never used a bridge if you think you have to activate the bridge like a module via F1. And it is perfectly fine, they've already received heavy nerfs. Don't like people bridging to you? go blow up their POS, citadel, what ever.
>>

Umm yea, you're replacing the system that already works with the same shit that works a slightly different, more complicated way for no reason.

you can't think of a single reason why its bad because you chose not to invest time and effort into hunting down a super or titan's POS which is super easy as fuck if you had a clue.

>get a titan kill
you stop their bridging stupid ass

>they'll jump out
and you stop them from bridging on you. Thats how this works. To make a building tumble you kill its support beams, not break windows

Christ you're so totally against effort because you want to invent some complex method of doing something that already works because you're whining about a non-issue

the system does not work, and I'd be replacing it with a capital ship going into combat. the current system is a capital ship not going into combat. do you understand the difference here? with the current system, you are rewarded without taking any risk, which is not how eve is supposed to work. in a new and sensible system like piloted ships in carriers, or bridging ships being forced to jump, you would be taking risk

>you stop them bridging

nice, so you siege their pos in their home system with their most expensive asset in it, one of the most expensive ships in the game. you do all that and succeed, and out of it you get a 100 mil medium tower killmail, and you stop them bridging for a few hours. that's real great

I guess people are predicting that F2P shit is going to work. I can't imagine an alpha clone state new player ever making enough for a plex unless they do a shitload of exploration in their shitty T1 frig.

Yes it obviously does not because we've been using it working for the last 8 years

Why not remove pos bubbles and let everything float in space? Why not give everyone in alliance full access to everything?

Sleipnir is a Command Ship. It is able to carry warfare links that provide combat bonuses to fleet members. These ships are especially useful when doing missions in a fleet.

Hey guys, is mission running still decent income? Or is exploration THE thing now? I've got piss poor explo skills but I need isk
>>
>I'm too dumb to read what anyone says, so nobody can prove me wrong

>make up fake paradigms and problems that no one bitches about

show me on the kb where you got hotdropped

Why didn't you scout out the titan? Why don't you have spies? Why didn't you form a fleet to get good fights by shooting at their POS?
>>
>fake paradigms

what does this even mean

>Why didn't you scout out the titan?

so you have to do this all the time or get fucked, real balanced

Incursions will net you the most isk/hour in high sec PVE. Null and sometimes lowsec exploration can make you a shitload of money in a short amount of time if you're lucky but have fun running into a bubble if you don't multibox a scout.

LVL4 missions aren't horrible isk/hour if you have a decent ship with good skills but it's boring as fuck and doesn't come close to incursions.


Exploration for high risk high reward(exploring in hi-sec is for idiots or lottery ticket buyers)

Incursions for if you need dosh quickly

Missions for braindead steady income and LP rewards.

Burner missions for people with balls of steel.

Sorry you don't want to put in effort to find a titan POS and kill it, marking it, remembering that the enemy's Titan is in range of what systems which is super easy to plot thanks to dotlan.

When I do incursions I typically fly in shield fleets. I can fly a scimi or basilisk which is nice because logi is usually the most needed role. Gets you into groups quickly.

I have no idea what the armor fleet is called.
