As was said in the first post, we want to go back to basics and get the core interactions working first. Then we can look at branching back out once we have a solid foundation.

 Going to less content is a good way for them to encourage people to try for that 60 days offline bonus.
 
 Before hearing this I felt like the path they were on atleast let me enjoy the game as they worked on it but when you start removing stuff it seriously hurts the confidence of the players they currently have.
 
 Dangerous waters CCP, dangerous waters.

 All vehicle specializations have been temporarily removed, they're redoing vehicles, and will supposedly re-add things.

 Holdfast Mercs, holdfast...
 I'm sure it'll all make sense when it happens, 1.7 I believe.
 A lot of time for CCP to work it out, especially with all the immediate feedback.
 However, I am being a bit optimistic...

 Looking at the stats for the dropships that will be available, there is not a single dropship that does not get killed with one shot from a forge gun. Yes, you can equip armor but once you account for less slots and fire damage every dropship is still a one hit kill.
 
 
 With this in mind I have no clue why they would bother adding the warpoints for transporting infantry.
 
 The only transporting any dropship pilot is doing is isk ot of their wallet.

 EDIT: wow they removed the 180mm plates as well.
 
 Not true. We don't have fire damage since 1.4. Most dropships will take 2 or 3 forge gun hits before they die and the extra 400-500 hp will help with a resist stacked dropship. We also don't have any changes to our slot layouts which makes me happy.
 
 Now if you look at the proposed module values and compare to the current marketplace values, that's where you'll be concerned.

 One of two things is going to happen.
 
 Your proto swarm will be useless cause no vehicle useage.
 Your proto swarm will net you massive gains due to die hard vehicle users.
 
 
 I say this as an assumption looking at swarms versus my cheap DS that I use most of the time but Im not familiar with the actual stats.

I am not supposed to run around defenseless with swarms anyways... its just that when I run pubs with people.... half the time no one knows how to take down a tank so I have to run in a suicide AV suit just to keep my team from being decimated.

 I think tanks and LAV users will be much more persistent through this removal than us DS users. If by chance we are refunded the SP for our dropship skills I will probably be putting it into forge guns just to enjoy annoying them with the change and feel a little better at the end of a day in New Eden.
