Who thinks they should do a limited edition Replicated Earth Colony Ship as a cargo ship or some sort?

a good idea, or not?

Why?




Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

We already have 32 of cargo ships (skins included). That doesn't include Orca, Rorqual, Primae and Noctis.

Because Terran tech in the fuff means you'd have an industrial that could solo entire cap fleets.

I think this pretty much sums things up.

People are already getting rig slots for freighters.

Just put cargo rigs on.

What happens if you make a fleet of Terran ships? That could obviously be destroyed only by a greater fleet of Terran ships.

We already have that... They are called supers.Cool

A wrecked one as a landmark in one of the systems close to the Eve Gate would be a nice idea.

Just go sit by the wrecks of them in relic sites and pretend you are flying it.

Just another collector's item. Like the Primae. Utterly useless but people still buy them.

It's the latest Star Trek movie all over again, that Romulan Mining Vessel that decimates the entirety of the Federations fleet

Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week. Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person."

*pictures goonswarm being wiped out by a single mining barge in the hands of a carebear.*

That would be... deeply ironic.

Also by definition, impossible.

A Carebear would never put guns on their barge. If they did and took on a fleet, then they aren't a Carebear at all.

In the fluff they can cause every ship in ranges shields to invert and crush the ships, without fitting, you know, a gun.

I think they should give me my very own, one-of-a-kind BS, with 10/10/10 slots and 5 rigs slots. Doesn't mean it's going to happen... just saying. Roll

The irony would if the person was just randomly activating modules and thinking what does this do as another ship explodes.

LOL having them pass out Jovian battleships, eh? Remember those, 8 of each slot?

The Primae still has a use. It allows players on trial accounts to set up their 1 PI command center.

You can argue the value of that use all you like, but you can't deny that it is a use.

I think it would be a very nice skin to put onto an existing indy ship. Provided it was purely cosmetic. It would seem no one understands that by "Replicated" you mean in appearance. It's really a shame they all jump to the silly assumption that you think we should get Terran tech.

At the beginning of the EVE game, we capsuleers had access to tech one ships, modules, etc. Then came tech two ships, modules, etc. With the discovery of wormholes and sleepers came the tech three cruisers and their subsystems. It is rumored that Terrans are at tech ten when compared on that scale with the Jovians being five I think.

Correct me if I'm wrong.
