I support this. I like matari ships, but they need to be brought up to balance with the others. |

Is there a CSM or someone that can let us know If anything is going on about this. At least a update. There are many post about this date and that date we will know. Everyday I come on and look and nothing. I have a minny dread and it is all battle ready but the torps. I would like to know if I need to train them or not. Thank you for your help.
I wouldn't hold your breath; like most of the other PVP-focused balance issues (e.g. Black Ops battleships) there's very little incentive on the part of CCP to do anything about the Naglfar/Nidhoggur. The number of players who can fly the ships and who consider them unbalanced is small, and moreover have enough time/skillpoints sunk to not quit out of hand about it.
I'm not at liberty to say any kind of update one way or another. |

i know i supported this, but everytime i talk to my fellow goons about capitals, and tell them i'm planning on training minmatar, they just brow beat me about not training for a rev. it's not a hard change, and there is a reason not many people fly this ship. |

I think the question was is this issue part of the CSM agenda? not what are the proposed CCP changes. |

If you look back a few pages, you'll see that this issue was approved by the CSM many weeks ago. |

Right. The real question is whether CCP are actually doing anything about this, or any other CSM-debated topic. I don't doubt that some form of discussion was had by you guys, and maybe suggestions passed on to CCP, but it's the last step which has all the uncertainty. You say you can't update us on that (which I don't really understand, but it's presumably not your call), so I guess we're going to keep sporadically bumping this thread until CCP decide to tell us the score. |

Saying "It is approved to be an issue" is like saying,'we give you permission to complain'. Well that doesn't really help us in and of itself unless someone is actually going to listen. I've got about 8 months before I make an involuntary trip to a certain sandy place and I'd like to be able to proudly fly a balanced Naglfar before then!! |

The Nidhoggur's pretty good, and it's actually quicker to train a rev than training a naglfar even with the nidhoggur fully speced. |

The part where it makes basically no sense, and seems like an excuse for CCP to do nothing based on anything the CSMs are doing. "Surprise! We're going to make a huge change to ship speeds, now on test!" vs "CSMs are going to have tons of input into how we run our game, we'll fly them to Iceland, and have discussions! They also can't talk about anything that was discussed in specific detail, and we may or may not implement anything at some point in YEARS after the meeting." Why make a big deal about this program, institute a forum, and so on, if they're going to sweep everything under the rug? I can READ Bein when he says 'I can't comment', but that doesn't mean I actually understand why that's the case. |

/signed I fly caldari capitals but I do agree that the matari ships especially the dread just don't seem to be what they should be considering how much extra training is needed to fit one properly, if it would be able to lets say fit 3 capital projectiles OR 3 citadel torp launchers then I think that it would make alot more sense |

Signed.
The Naglfar needs both a damage boost AND tank boost for the extra amount of skill/training required to fly it. This needs fixing. |

I just think it's absolutely hilarious that we've gone from "complete transparency of the CSM's work to voters" as in the program text, to "I'm not at liberty to say any kind of update one way or another", all within the couple months since the program was started. Really, though, it makes perfect sense. I'm sure CCP are just terrified of the sheer scope of market speculation into these tech 1 capital ships that could arise if they were to, you know, acknowledge that they're working on balancing a ship or something. We could be seeing, I don't know, 1.7, or maybe even 2 billion isk prices for these ships! And people actually buying them! |

Signed, beef up the minnie caps, its long overdue, training in general twice as long as other races with our mixed tanks and dual weapon system.
Ending up with the "joke of the game" ship isent promoting a balanced game with everyone training for revs and moros's.
And a little offtopic... Redo the Ragnarok grafic plz, looking at it makes baby jesus cry.
In general, you must have outsourced the task of creating minnie caps, they are in almost every way the biggest flaw in this game, it looks like its chinese child labours that did the job. |

Agreed. Aside from the Nidhoggur, the rest of the Minmatar capitals are very sub-par. |

I do seem to get primaried a lot, but any decent FC wont primary a nag in a cap fight. Lowest dps, high burst tank (it only lasts for 1-2minutes but that's about as long as most dreads last in a cap fight anyway), plus they're like a giant marker of where the enemy cap fleet is.
