Edited by: Annowyn on 29/10/2007 12:42:20 IIRC. 5 drones and it must launch 5 fighters, assign them, then launch 5 more and continue assigning. It can no longer launch all of it's fighters and BBQ whatever is unlucky enough to find it.
If ya want the real deal use the search box, top right. There are 2314681568 threads regarding this.

Correct, no more than 5 drones MAX, but 5 fighters + up to 10 more assigned (or 15 assigned if you wish).
And remember you can't assign fighters in 0.4 so, max 5 in 0.4 systems no matter if you are in a gang or not. ---

Ok Mr. Alt... Care to elaborate? In 3 months time (as stated, not the next patch).. This will be happening... Extra modules are being released but it is.. ---

I must admit I was under the impression that how carriers will be changed is not yet set, this is a possible way to change it, but probably not the only one.

So what happens if you've got 15 fighters all assigned to other people, and the other people get blown up? The fighters can't all return to your control any more... do they just go AWOL?

Another nerf that seems to be on the test server - that ships in the corp hanger array will not be able to have cargo inside them. Is this part of the 3 month patch? Will it be better for me to honour tank a dread and haul than use a carrier?

Their idea is that they return to your bay, modules depending. That part hasn't been decided yet, as they said, they scrapped the all out killing of drones for a modules approach so you can increase your ability to field with some module or other. But essentially you are nerfed.. Not in Trinity but the one after (3 months).
Its all in the last dev blog (redux). Personally I only fly my chimera with backup fleet so is not a major issue to me as I can re-assign them and lag out, but what is annoying is the drones assignment is not allowed. ---

What has been said is pretty much what they plan to change.
IMO I agree with the change. It's a support class ship in every way, and this nerf is just solidifying that goal.

I wonder though... how many carrier/mothership pilots assign fighters to wingmen anyways because they don't want to have to concentrate on them?
Oh, and do assigned fighters still get the damage bonus from the carrier pilot? ------------------------------ One more soldier off to war... And one Velator in my hangars. |

1) Very little, its kinda hard to say "Sure here is about 75 mil in Fighters-- try not to get them killed."
2) Only the 5 fighters that the carrier pilot controls, afaik [told to me by a carrier pilot who fooled around on the test server]
