Upcoming Feature and Change Feedback Center

People will need to start fitting scrams.

The new HIC scripts make even more sense considering this (I'm surprised no-one mentioned it in that thread tbh)

still no t2 coercer and no t2 cormorant. but yet minmatar and gallente get to enjoy mixed weapon t2 destroyers. yay.

Do objects like missiles and bombs get teleported as well?

because the eris is such a great ship right

That was mentioned in the OP.

CCP RiseCommand Destroyers!

Second, how exactly does the Micro Jump Field Generator work? This module is exactly like a Micro Jump Drive except that when it fires, it pulls any ships nearby along with it for the jump. There's a lot of specifics to consider here but the big restrictions you need to know are that you cannot use this module in high sec, you can not pull invulnerable targets (ships that have just undocked or just jumped through a gate and are still cloaked), you can not move capitals, and you can not jump into starbase shields. You CAN however do a lot of really crazy thing such as pull bombs that are midair, pull dictor bubbles or chain multiple jumps in a row using several Command Destroyers. As for numbers, we have a base spool up time of 9 seconds, a reactivation delay of 160 seconds, a pull radius of 6km from the ship and a jump distance of 100km. The module requires 5 PG and 31 CPU to fit and requires the same skill as normal MJDs to use.




Whilst i really like this idea, (especially that you make links available on them) here are my thoughts.

If this modules works like other MJD (can only be shut down via scram), what is stopping players from diving into a bubble to save titans?

What happens when you use this device near starbase structures, marauders, Deployed bubbles and drones?


Can it be used to reposition Cyno jammers?

Big one: How in hells name are Bomber fleets going to feel when the vast majority of the fleet that has been dragged into a bubble and is about to be dropped, just vanishes? lets use an example:

You setup a MJD beacon using the dessie 100km off a trapped Rattlesnake, you activate the MJD, but halfway through cycle you also activate the MJFG, so the moment you land on the Rattlesnake, it is dragged to safety 100km away. Extending further into this question. What if the ship you are SAVING has a cyno fitted? are we allowing cynos to be bumped around to safety now?
Now i admit, the idea of saving ships by warping in on them and then activating sound fun, and good for gameplay. but i can see an aweful lots of very exploitave behaviour.

Another example, if this ship can drag mining barges too, whats stopping mining bots in null from also having these dessies orbiting them? so not only they warp out when a neut enters system, but also jump 100km away from the warpin, making it even harder to catch them.

If this is going ahead, it sounds like ALOT of restrctions need to be made, or atleast another form of shutting these little monsters down.


Also, Mr Rise that is one fantastic beard you had during the championships

IIRC CCP has already stated that the MJFG won't affect capitals.

Q: will the new HIC scram shut down these new MJFG aswell?

Do you really think the only counter to this should be sticking 3 dudes in proteus with the express purpose of tackling MJD dessies so they dont **** up your world?
Because I guarantee you that you've killed BS fleet combat for all but the most dedicated which doesn't sound like you're helping the sandbox become more sandboxy by removing an entire class of ships from use. Who knows, Maybe BC fleets will die again too.

You could always read the OP

Thankyou for these. Been so long but so worth the wait.

What about capitals in general, capitals in siege/triage, supers/titans, marauder in bastion - will mjfg affect them?
