Tech 4 Ships

Just wondering if anyone knows what tech 4 ships are? I just noticed their logo in the stuff files... icon id: 73_16_244
Are these for ships that have custom paint jobs or are paintable, or are they a whole new type/ class of ship?

I seriously hope its as Pak Narhoo states below and they're some sort of ship class that requires multiple pilots. Roll

Perhaps a screenshot would help? I'm too lazy to rummage through a bunch of files that might or might not break something.

Also... to my knowledge... there are no "Tech 4" ships.

73_16_243.png is actually the T3 icon, heh!

now, 73_16_244.png is this elusive T4 icon whose existence will cause hundreds of eve players to discuss the potential ships that will be released as "Tech IV" with their only lead being an png deep in a resource file, heh~

As long as it's something different instead of just being the next tier in gear progression, bring it on.

T4 needs 3 peeps to fly it:

Propulsion
Offense
Defense


Wouldn't that be fun? P

Yes, because everything in Eve is hardcoded. Roll

That would be fricking awesome.
Imagine how long it would take to undock and get ready though, but it would be sweeeeeeeeeet.

Nerfing the Drake has proved to be too hard. it will be re-launced as a T4 ship so it can justify it being good(ish) in all departments. :D

joking aside... The idea that a T4 ship needed more people to fly, would be awesome... hillarious but awesome :)

Sounds like every Minmatar ship out there already! The Vaga is pretty much a 2.5km/s spare change launcher with some shields

Multiple pilots sounds like introducing a potato-sack-race to the game. Could be interesting I'm sure but it sounds very clunky at first.

Tech4 will be mining/industrial ships. Imagine mining ships with the tank of a Proteus. Or blockade runners immune to bubbles and with even faster align times. A drone module that lets the new PI drones ferry material to/from the planet without the need for a customs office. Etc..

Hmmmm.... looks like I have to write a new CSS div container for my site that incorporates this T4 icon.

Damn T'Amber... that's some s****. We don't even have T3 frigates yet!

I'm going through the DB looking for clues... maybe they (CCP) are just thinking ahead? There are a lot of "futuristic" modules and other stuff in the DB that are not in play though... T3 moon miners and such.

I'll post here if I find anything worth mentioning. Don't hold your breath.

EDIT:
Nothing on Tranquility... just that icon that I can see. Will check sisi when I get a chance.

There are no T4 ships in the sisi database either. Looking at changes... ze logs show nothing
