Original BR/DST thread with lot of discussion:

https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=310427

From what was said at fanfest, all BR's will now have a 2nd high slot, pretty much covering the only complaint with that design.

DST's clearly need an overhaul, and plenty of ideas hashed out so far.

Could you elaborate on Guristas ship changes? Just how much "reduced" are their drone bay and bandwidth going to be? Will it be able to fit and field 2 Gecko drones? 5 Sentries/Heavies on Rattlesnake are out of question?
Limiting number of drones a drone-specialised ship can field, compared to other drone-specialised ships, just doesn't sit well with me. You are going to lose some in combat anyway, but with these changes every loss is a much greater reduction in projected damage, especially since you won't be able to carry as many spares.
There's forum threads up on all pirate ship changes. You can find the answers you seek there.

Look in the F&I Forum Section. They usually pin the dev posts on these changes to the top of the section.

New warp in / out effect are fun.

But i find annoying that you actually still see the ship in your overview and the in space bracket of the ship even if the warp out effect occured...

I wouldn't be surprised if anything left out of the blog won't release till Crius.

Is the new Moa design on SiSi right now? I've only seen the artwork, but no in engine screens of it. Same with the new Phoon and Domi.

any news regarding the animated parts on the crucifier model? Last info was "as soon as possible".

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

Where are threads for faction stations? This is an ENORMOUS graphics update, and there are a huge number of variables to it that must be covered!

I noticed there wasnt an off button for the "new and improved" tool tips for dummies.

Made a signature so I am taken seriously on the forums, since thats the only thing they are good for.

The Moa should be hitting Sisi next week but it wont be completely finished, the Phoon is still being worked on and we're doing our best to get it into the Kronos release.

The Domi re-design will be soon TM but is not scheduled for Kronos.

Pirate faction battleships do not yet have updated descriptions in the Traits tabs.

The Nightmare still has 5 low-slots instead of 6. (The Afterburner bonus applies though, even though it isn't listed in show info.)

The Dev Blog only covers things that are confirmed for Kronos. Both of those changes, along with a few others, are likely to be announced for Kronos as well, but will otherwise be in the next release.

You guessed correctly. Those changes are interlocked with the rest of the Industry changes.

Its a two-edge sword... many complain the easiness of finding sites helped tank the market for the loot. Loot value may drop even farther, with more people coming back to exploration because the spew is gone.

Hey CCP Devs..

You know what would be great ? Some feedback on the OTHER Topic that have been announced.

It's been over a month since a Dev responded to the Drones thread, almost a month since there was one on the Pirate Battleship thread.. Probably more than a month on the Pirate Cruiser thread.. Only responses day one on the new Mordu's Legion Ships thread.

I mean it's great that you post these ideas/changes, and ask for feedback, but what's the point if it's not getting read.. or if it is getting read, no feedback given to US so we know some how/why things are working/changing the way you plan.

I'm not asking for a response to every question raised.. not even a response daily.. But as long as these threads are stickied, and as long as there's still issues being raised, you'd think a response maybe once a WEEK would be in order.

It's not like there's an abundance in time before the release it due.. less than a month..

I mean the initial feedback given in the Pirate Cruiser thread the first few days lead to a significant change in the Angel line of ships.. That was Devs reading and responding to issues and working out an idea.. But in most of the other threads it seems to be a comment the first day or two, then nothing. I mean the Pirate Battleship thread has more responses from individual ISD's cleaning the thread, than from Dev's..

If you are done with feedback, then just lock the threads.. otherwise please stick your head in, respond, address some concerns, or even dismiss them. I'd honestly rather a Dev say "No, we don't feel this is an issues and will keep things the way they are." than 30 pages of people arguing about it and NO feedback at all. I mean 2/3rd of the Pirate BS thread is about the Rattlesnake... Not a word in response to any of the complaints raised. People are raised issues with the Mordu's Legion Frig and Cruiser being OP (I don't think they are) and the BS being Underpowered (Which I agree with).. no feedback either.. Okay that last one hasn't been a week yet, but with the previous threads I'd be lying if I said I had faith that we will ever get any more feedback in the thread.

You ask for our feedback, we need yours, otherwise it's just two of three people with issues, and half a dozen trolls talking around in circles.

They iterated on the stats once they wont make any more changes until they are tested on Sisi which will happen this week maybe even tomorrow if they locked down a build on Friday. I expect lots of dev post in the ship balance threads this week.

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

Why no mention of Dominix redesign in the blog? Has it been cancelled/moved away from Kronos?
