I just have three requests (pleas) that I ask you to consider:
1) If your intention is to degrade the logistics capability of 00 empires, then there has to be a gray area between what is proposed and the status quo. Provide jump freighters with some additional range and/or capacity so they actually have a purpose. As it stands, they become virtually useless for sov holding alliances with an escorted freighter becoming superior in almost every way. I would rather have the full fatigue apply to jump freighters than the full range reduction proposed. The resulting impact to the Eve economy cannot be understated.
2) If your intention is to force regional play and regional economies, then look at the underlying industry and infrastructure first to make sure that is supports that vision. Amarr medium towers need to be able to support a simple reaction (3x silos + 1x simple reactor). Currently that's impossible and forces anyone living in Amarr flavored 00 space to import ice products to run reactions, or operate simple reactions at a significant financial loss. Also, moon mineral distribution does not support T2 production within each region. As it stands, Delve provides materials that are used in Gallente ship production, but has Amarr ice and Amarr flavored relic/data sites. Moon minerals need to be redistributed in order to support regional T2 production that corresponds to the racial technology available in that area. Even if an alliance doesn't hold an entire region, it should be able to trade with others in that region to facilitate this. They should not be forced to source product from the other side of the galaxy.
3) The Rorqual's role was marginalized in Crius with the addition of compression arrays. We were told leading up to Crius that a role change for Rorquals was coming soon(tm). We are now going into our second release since Crius without any further communication on this. If there is a role change for the Rorqual forthcoming, then let's hear it and make sure the jump drive changes make sense given the new role. Our angle is that we care about objective game balance, regardless of who it benefits or hurts.-á -Goonswarm 2014 |
