The Orca

Typical lazy miner. It’s already been posted and @Pan_Dora1 saw it and acknowledged it.

So OK good, let’s move on…. Great. Maybe actually focus on the topic of the thread:

So if there are going to be nerfs, what are they going to be?

Sticking heads in the sand like “my ship doesn’t need any change” ignores all the hints from CCP that they are going to change it.

all we can do is speculate as to what changes might be coming. All we can do is let ccp know that ratface is trying to ruin eve and that the current mining ships are perfect where they are.

I agree, it’s perfect. it’s a great ship, great experience, and fun to play.

Just like AFK cloakers were so awful…and…there were so many because all the “we people” said so.

Since inception, Dodixie has seen 50 transactions for Mobile Observatories. The demand for women’s apparel far exceeds those actively suppressing those dastardly cloaked afk pilots.

Amen brother…

If you acknowledge the Orca + Miner = Pillar there’s not much left to say and yet you and Pan are still talking. So that’s not an acknowledgement it something else.

The root word of “aknowledge” is …(wait for it)…KNOWLEGE

Here’s a definition for you - Acknowledge: accept or admit the existence or truth of.

I don’t see any acceptance round here.

This has also been posted in the forum and you’ve been too lazy to read it:

orca_ccp

Hence this thread.

I’m actually mining in an Orca right now in highsec, and if you actually took the time to not be lazy, you’d see in my posts in this thread that I’m not all for destroying the ship.

That might be a bit hard for a lazy miner, but wonders might occur.

rattati is bad for eve. ccp should have learned from his dust days.

I don’t disagree, from the perspective of my gameplay, but he is the one that is calling some of the overall shots, so we have the adapt to changes he pushes that are introduced.

Unfortunately we agree on this. Thank you for the discussion. It’s been spirited and fun.

Literally would solve the afk problem.

Exactly what is wrong with freighters a well.

Mostly the people flying them. Otherwise, nothing really.

Here is the video, unfortunately it looks like they are going to nerf the orca and rorq again. LOL

I would just like to say the utility of these is exactly what many players love.

someone fire this turd. lol

It will be extremely sad if the Orca and Rorqual go back to just ships flown by alts. Particularly the Orca, since it’s more attainable for many players than the Rorqual is.

Whatever they do, I hope it’s still a ship that main characters aspire to fly.

I agree.

I have a feeling they are going to increase the boosts, but remove the drones. Just a feeling… But mining foreman need to be able to earn isk on their own, which was the issue before 2016. I truly remember when the mining foreman was a dead profession, alt only ship.

I agree. Seems a pretty low effort approach; and that’s really the level of development we’ve seen in recent times, so the likely outcome.

I hope it isn’t and I’ll give CCP kudos if they do something more expansive than that.

Next think you know we have threads looking for classic. LOL

I bet people lost to orcas in pvp is why this is happening.

The video says they are going move it more toward fleet boosting (prob reduce the yield on drones) and give it a new role.

Curious what that could be…

Mini moon drill ? :stuck_out_tongue:
