I’m actually surprised this is still on the first page…
Not really, I for one am withholding my comments until I can actually play around with the new module setups. Seeing it in a list makes it a bit hard for me to visualize the actual impact. I guess other are doing the same.

Yeah, same, I guess… Just to see how big the nerf on survivability really is…
bleh maybe i read that wrong
damn patch notes, always so ambiguous and cryptic ;\
Hull modifiers
Improved pylons - rarely used before, will continue to stay rare
Capacitor Modifier
Emergency Barrier - Low synergy interceptor nerf
These 2 should swap places. Pylons on capacitor. Emergency Barrier on Hulls.
CPU Modifiers
Electronic Guidance
Target Tracking Coprocessor - I don’t see the wisdom in 2 identical modules being on the same slot?
Alternatively - Pylons and either one of the CPU modifier above would be better off being put in Engine slot
Galvanized Armor is now available at rank 9
Target Tracking Coprocessor is now available at rank 12
Shield Projection Splitter now also reduces ship acceleration
Adaptive Shield now affects hull and shields, but only when moving at a speed exceeding the base value by at least 50 %
Target Tracking Coprocessor now increases critical damage bonus
Auxiliary Generator now increases ship speed but also increases energy consumption
Audio
Improved English-language voices
Interesting changes overall. looking forward to this.
well, at least one thing is certain:
i have a couple million in useless mods… again…
adaptive shield is now useless in most situations… it’ll only work when afterburning forwards, which means useless in combat…
proj splitter on the other hand will make it even harder to dodge on guard/engi than it already is…
so basically frigate nerf, hardcore…
which is kinda dumb considering even an ECM can shred a 75k ehp guard… you’ll be dead before the disables wear off… or a covert…
now you wanna nerf frigs more instead of fixing EM torps…
WHAT THE…

Let’s take your accusations here:
75k ehp guard dieing to an ECM before his disables wear off? lolwut…Try fighting any PROPER pilot in a guard and you’ll find you can hardly damage him at all, and wll most likely end up dead yourself.
Not to mention, before the disables wear off? They are gone within 10 seconds total, if you die to a single ECM in that time, then you don’t have 75k EHP
Also, you hate on the frigate nerf, yet you want EM torps nerfed…logic?
energy absorber is a disable… it’ll keep you at zero energy. can’t use any of your actives/phase shield, pretty much useless guard. if you’re already out of torps, no chance.
even if you do use a torp after they’ve already almost got you in hull, you’ll drop yourself to 25% hull, and prob not even drop their barrier.
2500+ dps with missiles on a T3 ecm. and you can get that higher to 3000+. thats 30k damage in 10 secs of diables, another 30k for 10 sec of energy absorber. 60k.
problem is, you don’t have 200 resist for 2 damage types, so if their missiles are of a different type than main gun, you don’t have 75k ehp… more like 60k or less…
and if you don’t have time to switch your phase before you get disabled, and they just randomly happen to have one of the other 2 damage types, or both, then you honestly only have 50k ehp or less… basically dead in 15 secs instead of 20.
you can’t even use emerg shield boost due to energy absorber… which disables most units cuz it drains some 200+ energy per second.
50% of speed, is also for straffing speed ?

I would love to fight against your ECM in my T4 R12 guard…I wouldn’t be surprised if I outlived your disables.
Guards are very tanky by nature, and proper guard pilots simply won’t go down in 10 seconds to an inty.(Unless it’s CO, those might just do it)
Oh well, contact me in game or through PM. I will stop responding to you henceforth in threads.
Servers are up, you can go on and check it all out!
thank you
Why am I still at school! 
Oh well, don’t spoil too much of the new stuff for me 
nice !
Damn, now you have to make some really tough choices.
Modules change is fine I guess but no refund on obsolete ones ? Wow…
Just looking at my Swarm:
Shrapnel spread is 4-8 deg now and no slot to fit electronic guidance.
Afterburner energy use was increased but no slot to fit energy boosting modules.
with three hull slots my survivability increased by over 30% with my initial fit.
Don’t have time to look at other ships right now let alone play (I don’t have the credits to refit them anyway), but on first sight I’m a sad panda.
PS: Also was unable to find that sensei sticker anywhere.
ooh yeah !! lol
I hope you know all that changes make differences in your game guys xD
So I have to farm for buying modules xD…
Weeeeellll 
And don’t take me wrong i totally like it but … don’t you thik it’0s time for a total ECM restyle? I mean now people can score 93% controlling effect reduction… and if on the one hand i really like it (i never liked stasys!) … on the other hand why should someone keep flying ecm? :
Adaptive Shield now affects hull and shields, but only when moving at a speed exceeding the base value by at least 50 %
Passive Armour and Submatter Shields also had their penalties changed
and hmmmmmm …
Weeeeellll

Atleast now they can’t whine anymore about ECM’s.
It’s a trade of for sure, but they shouldn’t whine anymore…
I always hated them more than stasis Not saying I agreed with ECM abilities(Which got fixed by a duration nerf), but the whiners were more annoying
