Hello,

Over the last many years CCP has add many more ship classes and Teir ships. Why do we need Tech one or a Tech 2 base names with having it's own ship classes to them. Since each ship has it's own class name. We need to remove the tech one and tech two system from the game. Just like we have faction ships in the game. Are they tech one or tech two or better? I think we all understand at this point what class and ship type of what it can do in eve online.

Yes, players right now knows which ships belong to each class, however new players don't.

So no... It wouldn't do any good.

New players can easily tell the different between Standard vs Advanced vs Faction. Plus you can easily open and look at the info for each ship comparing :).

or we could leave it like it is and everyone doesnt have to scroll through a list of hundreds of ships to find the one they want. Personally i like being able to " ships> battleships> pirate faction> rattlesnake" as opposed to scrolling down a huge list to the "R"s or typing in a search box.

Its also easier for new players to learn and quickly find ships they can fly. If you can fly gallente frigates and you are looking for one you can easily go to frigates> standard> gallente and select one of those ships rather than try to remember which frigates are gallente and search a list for them.


Sometimes you are the squirrel and sometimes you are the nut. Today, you are the nut and the squirrel is hungry.

Here's a hint

It goes tech one < faction < tech 2 < pirate.

Eve Minions is recruiting.

This is the law of ship progression!
