Greetings Capsuleers! I wanted to inform you of a recent presentation thread on new industrial class ships in the Features & Ideas Forum.

Mobile Manufacturing

The bare bones summary of this thread is the introduction of two sets of new types of ships - Mobile Manufacturing Ships and Mobile Reprocessing Ships.

Mobile Manufacturing Ships (MSS)

These ships contain manufacturing lanes that enable production in space. The purpose of the ships is multiple, but the most important advantage is the ability to produce in-space, and thus not need station lane manufacturing. The details of how these ships behave and are balanced are in the thread. There are three variants, one standard Industrial and then two Capital-Industrials that mimic the same ideology behind the Orca and Rorqual.

Mobile Reprocessing Ships (MRS)

These ships are advanced industrial ships that enable modules, compounds, ore, ice, etc. to be reprocessed in space. The ships are not as efficient as stations (with standings), but enable reprocessing to take place in the field. There are two ships, Tech I and Tech II, the Tech II having improved refining efficiency and slightly more cargo space.

WHY?

These ships are designed to enable a total manufacturing loop in space - in other words, for the first time ever a truly nomadic playstyle is possible for a corporation. As of now, the only way to manufacture goods is through POS or Stations - the same applies to reprocessing to gain minerals. These ships have many other inherent trade values and will benefit high-sec all the way to w-space, and everything in between. Please view the thread for more information and - as asked there - give your feedback or ideas!

I will occasionally bump this thread to garner more interest, but I will not be replying to questions directly. Please take your discussions to the actual thread. Thank you!

Stop posting ******* ideas and suggestions in the ******* general discussion thread there's already a mother ******* forum you attention whoring ****.

*breathes heavily*

Otherwise it seems like a nice idea.

I'm sorry you feel this way and I do understand - I actually go through general discussion far more than any other forum. I posted it here so the 'general audience' would be aware of the thread and be invited to go look. If you don't want to see it, do not reply to this thread and it will very quickly bury itself. By posting to it - especially multiple times - you continue to bring it back to the top.

I only intend to bump it a few times over the course of next month. Most everyone who would care will post in the next day. It's kind of like people on the afk cloaking thread. If folks would stop posting that, they too do not like it but who gives a ****, the thread would have been buried long ago.

Other than that - I'm glad you think it's a nice idea.

You are correct and I placed this in the four forums that it would apply to, not every single one in the forums of New Eden. I do have to wonder why you reported one, but not this one...considering it's probably more out of line here than there?Lol
