So how long do we have to wait for the next round of ship balancing?

Ideally we will keep having more changes coming up this summer (CCP Tallest is back from daddy leave, and we are getting more manpower on this front). There are summer vacations that will slow thing down, of course (even if Iceland doesn't really have a summer, more of "less-of-a-winter" state), but we should be able to keep the effort up despite that.

Plan is to try to get things to accelerate though; we'll release a blog out explaining what's coming next soon (without the ™ as it is something we want out asap)Blink

Can I ask when you plan to start T1 Cruisers?

I am really, really excited for them and hope I don't have to wait until Winter.

Oh and make HAM Caracals a thing please.

Deploy will have to wait untill after the AT right, becouse the fixes need to be tested on Sisi first and if you put the changes on Sisi that will mess up a lot fo AT prep.

If i dont know something about EVE. I check https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/ISK_The_Guide

See you around the universe.

If you look around, that was the last announced plan for the Navitas (and possibly the Burst as well).

I can't see much point in adding new ships when the majority are still hardly ever used (or have a use).
Also, once you change the graphics (V3), slots and fittings, it's basically a new ship anyway.

Please tell me the "Tallest" comment is an invader zim reference. If so I will lifetime sub based on that alone.

I also agree with others that the T1 cruisers is what i'm really excited for because they're where races and ships really start to be different and also still affordable to risk especially for new players. They're also the ship class that in my opinion needs the most help because so many can't be fit how they logically should or are hands down overshadowed by one or two ships in that class. This is where the variety will start to shine.

Thanks for your guys hard work, it's much appreciated.

So Amarr newbies aren't able to take up mining till you guys get in gear which is going to be "after the summer"?

Iceland's summer is like one Thursday morning in July, so don't worry too much. Lol

I really want to know how many people complaining about no mining focused frigate for amarr actually use a frigate to mine?

Probably none.

You see, here's a peculair thing - some of us unselfishly think about others, like the newbies coming out of their pilot certification course withouit a fraction of the ISK or skills required for a fully fitted mining cruiser.

Not fashionable on these forums where "My way or no way" is the rule, I know, but there you go.

Completely Incapable of fitting 3 mining Lasers on a Punisher and getting pretty much the same ammount of Yield. Or on a Tormentor and having Drones to Defend themselves. Or mine with.

Ytterbium: Are you planning on releasing preliminary Details about the Changes like with the first round of Tiericide? If yes, when?

You can't fit three miners on either a Punisher or a Tormentor. Besides, where would a newbie fresh out of Aura's tutorial get a Punisher from?
