So, Rorq info?

I know everyone is foaming at the mouth about the Alpha clone thing, but it is not really an issue to me, as I have no intention of ever using an Alpha account, my main concern is regarding the Rorq.
Given that they are putting a T2 Indy Core into play, my hopes of them removing the thing have been dashed.
I am, however, still holding out hope that they will remove the movement restrictions on the Core use, or at the very least, reduce the cycle time on it, would that even factor into CCP's vision of the Rorq?
Will the PANIC button effect other Rorq's, or only barge/exhumers? What will the cooldown time be?
What are the changes going to be to the hull bonus's? It was said on the o7 show that the Rorq would be able to tank like a FAX (correct me if im wrong) what would that entail?
Also, given that we are going to get mining fighters, we are turning it into a mining carrier, can the cost of building the hull be brought into line with the combat carriers? Seeing as they are going to be sat, immobile, in an anom for hours, I dont think thats much of an ask.
When are the next DevBlogs going to be available regarding all this?

I would gladly wait, but with everyone going nuts about the Alpha Clone thing and putting their attention on that, I dont want CCP to screw the changes to the rorq up.

List is way to huge to be handled by regular computer to be compiled. We got to wait for quantum computer before we can list all of them

They already announced in the first dev blog that they would be announcing the changes to the Orca, the Rorqual and the new ship, the Porpoise, in an upcoming dev blog about the changes to gang links.

Wait for the damned dev blog. FFS, they're not coming til November, I don't think a day or three between blogs is going to kill anyone.

Do you honestly think that this hasn't been thought out by now? All these changes were basically set in stone weeks, if not months ago. So yes, I would like to know whats going on.

Yes, it's a conspiracy. You got that right.
It's all set in stone long ago and they simply have malicious reasons not to tell anyone...
... especially those who are fully entitled to know everything and anything as soon as they want to.

I mean, how dare they not tell you, now that you demand to know!

And you will, once they publish the dev blog. I fail to see your problem.

They haven't told us anything new about the Rorqual except the name of the super weapon - everything else was announced at Fanfest. There is no doubt they have been working on this for a while. Anything that requires a change to the code is likely baked in but a lot can be changed with parameter adjustments and those are not baked in.

I expect (and hope) that the next devblog will cover Industrial Arrays and the second devblog on fleet boosts will be after the CSM summit and probably after the coronation of the new Amarr empress.

i hope ccp increase the jump range of the rorqual to the same as a jf at 10LY. mine used to be handy for a cheap jf. the fact it had to be loaded in low/null sec was a fair penalty for the ability to jump out alot of stuff from low sec to null
