Summer is here and CCP is very much out of the office. Sion made a good point in wondering why everyone leaves Iceland when it has its best weather. What it means is that all is mostly quiet on the dev blog front. There are some things happening but the dev blogs and news announcements have not yet happened. The skill points were delivered on Tuesday so yay for unallocated skill points. Over in CSM chat, there has been a lot of back and forth about sov and measuring the impact and success of things so far. I can say that CCP and the CSM are watching it. The pros and cons are coming in pretty hot and heavy. Some are being looked at now. Some have to see how things are going and if and how the direction needs to be tweaked. In my corner, I'm starting to gather things together. The summit is in seven or so weeks. In between then and now I need to gather up my question list and write down a few topics of discussion. I'm starting now because I have personal vacation at the end
Also: PROSPECT!
ReplyDeleteProspector would have been a better name imo.
DeleteLooks like second venture..chinese version
ReplyDeletePretty sure that second image is just a venture from an odd angle. But openin up that third high slot would be a nice change. Perhaps a little expansion to ore hold too? That would make my WH gassing and mining a little less tedious :).
ReplyDeleteBut it is so far away if you look at the login screen. A frigate would vanish at that distance.
DeleteYes ! They've added a green venture like we talked about (well grey with hints of green). Looks promising. Doesn't have Traits yet in the description. I hope it'll be more than just a paint job.
ReplyDeleteBoth look like a Venture from different angels to me...
ReplyDeleteYou know, per FF Pre-Stream Fozzie says they are adding 6 new ships to be announced at FF... I would be very pleased if Ore might have be offering a new cruiser sized, Ventureish like hull? Hmmm?
Imagine the Venture scaled up (ore bays etc.) to a cruiser? of course, it could just be that the Vent is just getting a hard point buff...
The second is way to far away to be a venture. Also, their lasers have nifty effects going on at the asteroid.
DeleteWell maybe they are redesigning the Mining Barge / Exhumer series to be closer to the very well done venture. Many people have said this design is great and I wouldn't be mad at them if the change my Hulk into something that more looks like a big Venture ;-)
ReplyDeleteI TOLD YOU!!!!
ReplyDeleteNEW SHIP - Prospector. A T2 Venture that can fit a covert cloak. Extra cargo and ore capacity.
YEA!!!! Wormhole Ore sites here I come!
