as it stands right now.. fozzie has allowed the cycle to continue..

welp at fan fest.. here's the Caldari T3 destroyer coming in blah blah blah Fozzie/Rises expected release date ( they give terrible smiles at the camera)..

then I go.. welp its time to build another 250 self-assemblies to be ready for it, since that's the same thing i'll need.. plus I now have thousands in salvage parts, reaction gas so im ready for that.. no surprises around the corner at all cause he refuses to put more psssssssssssth in it..

it comes out..
I wait 51 mins for the invention..(expensive decryptor used for 100% success)..oh this is very difficult says yoda
out comes my bpc.. and it has that new car ship scent with it.
then I plug in how many I want to make.. wow this is sooooooo diffifult and challenging that even a 1 finger robot could do.

but I better build 1 and rush it to jita on day one to make a serious profit cause those "must haves" will be there and I can profit from it..

then the next day hits.. and welp im waiting for my other batches to finish and wow.. such a drop in price :(

all the new content (materials gathering + invention) is over within 1 hour time.. 19 hrs on waiting for a ship to cook, couple days waiting for more.. anyone still awake out there? yeah.. that's industry for ya

That's a decent amount of crying about not making as much of a profit as you would like. Is someone forcing you to build these or was that just your sense of entitlement talking?

Lucas, I think you missed the intent of the post or maybe it is me. To me it seems to be saying, these "new" builds are bringing nothing new to industry.
4 new ships for 4 different factions, all use the same materials to build what are supposed to be faction specific ships.

Well, just like t3 cruisers they are all based around the same reverse engineered sleeper stuff (not a lore buff, please forgive any ignorance here), so it makes sense that the process would be similar. The complaint as I understood it was more along the lines of "we could make a killing on the Confessor when this whole line was new, why did you ruin our opportunity with the rest?".

I'll give you that.. After reading it again, intent could be either or both.
Those who get the 1st of the new models to market quickly will still do ok but these aren't meant to be "special edition ships" that maintain a high value.
For a manufacturer, working out the best way to keep build costs down for the long term would be of far more benefit than "making a killing" on the 1st day.

It would make sense for different factions to have different build requirements, though I believe manufacturers would be up in arms complaining about having to obtain different components for each.

My opinions are mine.

  If you don't like them or disagree with me that's OK.- - - - - - Just don't bother Hating - I don't care

It really is getting harder and harder to justify $23 a month for each sub.
