If anyone that liked, disliked or wanted to flame away on my idea wants to comment or troll.Twisted

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Had to end sometime.

alphas can't mulitibox thank god. I'm sure I would have 4or5 out there just so I don't feel lonely lol

Technically they can - it's just hard. You can use two computers for two accounts, and more if you use VM's, if I recall. Ofc, I never tried it cuz it might fall under exploits.

True.... But I was thinking normal mulitibox like through the launcher. Not some 5 different sandbox programs nightmare

I agree that barges shouldn't be available to Alphas, but perhaps something akin to a mining "destroyer"?

I don't know how it would fit in between barges and frigates, but it's the only thing I can cone up with.

That's funny now that u mention it... The badges and exumers are the same size as a destroyer class ship. With only 2 size classes, friggets are the bottom 50% of the T1 ship scale.

If you go by the rigs then they are medium size, though clearly that doesnt mean much in practice.

Skiffs and procurers tank more like BS and BC than cruisers, macks fair okay mostly but really don't really tank heavy dps super well. Hulks meh.
