so ccp (somewhat) recently came out with the new navy BCs, and imo, they are all pretty kickass.

my question to the community is: do you think ccp will come out with pirate BCs? maybe navy/pirate destroyers?

i personally think having both navy and pirate faction of all ship classes would be a pretty nifty idea and add moar content to the game

Navy BC's are pretty **** at the moment. I hope that CCP doesn't come out with pirate BC's because that means that rise would be balancing them, which can only end in more of a cluster **** for the current eve PvP landscape

It felt like they nerfed T1 BC, and restored them as 'Navy', for twice the cost.

The end result feels like eve went backwards.

Not opposed to the idea, just sayin' how it felt so far.

i havent used navy bc. i can just say what ive seen but u describe the cane. For the rest i think it was a neat addition. Personally i would like to see a navy version of every t1 hull. But to integrate that into eve would be a tough job. For the pirates it would be interesting to see a full line up including caps. Blink

Navy Destroyers would be nice as basically beefed up versions of the T1. Navy BCs aren't as bad as people make them out to be, most people who are disappointed in the Navy BCs are referring to the Navy Hurricane and how it is basically a more expensive replacement of it's former T1 self. I think they fail to see that the old Hurricane was definitely broken and completely eclipsed the entire Cruiser class by itself, it had more/equal speed, more dps, more tank, more slots, more flexibility, more fitting etc. The BCs had to be taken down a notch and the Navy BCs bring some interesting stuff to the table. I personally think the N.Harb, N.Brutix and N.Cane bring some really good stuff to the table and are worth their price. The N.Drake is a little bit sad though.

Yeah, the cane is the same as the old one, except with double the hit points and more fitting....

Not to mention old Cane and Drake were OP.

As for the navy Drake, it have an interesting explosion radius bonus, and 9800 shield hp naked. I think some people don't realize what this means.

yeah dude I hope CCP never releases any content ever again because then someone might balance them which would completely clusterfuck everything right bro? I mean damn they should just get rid of the whole ******* game because then there would be nothing to **** up right? You're kinda stupid! no wait, you're a complete ******* ******! Roll

It's possible Navy destroyers will be a thing soon-ish, especially since there is a lot of discussion about how to balance the Pirate ships right now for the summer expansion.

The lower end of the scale is very crowded. I don't know what faction destroyers would bring to the game. New ships could easily throw balance out of whack. Noone really wants to go back to Dramiel Online. Medium ships have the same issue with gank and tank already having many choices. Combat and Assault BC. HAC. T1 Cruisers. Navy and Faction Cruisers. It's also a crowded field.

CCP should introduce new ships - but I'd prefer those ships to be on the higher end. Capital ships need to be rebalanced and there's a lot of room for innovation in this area as well. New Capital ships? Navy or Pirate Carriers/Dreads? Twisted There's a huge skill gap between BS and Capital ships. Only Caldari have a disruption BS. You get the idea.

Or introduce ships that have function other then tank and gank. Redo local. Introduce intel ships. That kind of thing.

I prefer the way they implemented Navy BCs to the alternative, which would be the complete obsoletion of the BS.

I don't care about CBCs. Pirate ABCs could be interesting, but I don't care about those either because I think ABCs should be cruisers anyway.

Oh god.

Pirate ABC's would be scary as ****. Can you just imagine the horrifying damage that a fleet of talos sized daredevils could punch out.
