Just asking, given that we've already had the C&P Livestream, & the Engineer livestream is planned for Thursday of next week, it would be nice to get a decent preview of what the Devs are considering......as well as time to make suggestions.
Isn't it time for a new Focused Feedback area for Engineers changes in the Beyond Season?
- Thread starter Marc_Hicks
- Start date
Well, the fact they're doing a live-stream about them says otherwise.....but I do want an equal amount of time to look at & discuss Engineer improvements as we had for C&P.

The best way to focus on engineers, is to just remove them.
Make them vendors for preset generic better than A grade parts at a hefty price. Remove the RNG Grind that is just dull ( you know it is ), the insane balance difference between those who can spend hundreds of hours getting god rolls compared to those who either are casuals or just hate the dull grind.
Heck even put in difficult multistage missions to get access to certain mods........
But the RNG horror that is engineers just breaks the game.
PVP is a meta off more than ever with certain combos just being that far above everything else that it removes experimentation.
The difference between PVP ships and stock traders/mission runners is comical.
Bigships in PVP now have a HUGE disadvantage and while they shouldnt be win buttons, they should be a lot more dangerous and threatening vs a couple of mediums.
NPC farming is brain dead more than ever since the community had NPC engineering essentially neutered, now you CAN afk with a friend in a CZ.
Its just a bad addition.

Pretty sure the said that they hoped the next one would be engineers, but that could be subject to change.
I don't understand the hate for Engineers, unless you PvP. Lol
I think they're ok. Some unlock requirements and Material gathering could do with some work, but other than that, they're ok. Oh, except the wheel of fortune. Me no likey.

When you have luck like mine, you learn hate is the primary focus for anything relying on pure RNG. Although I usually keep quiet through most of these sort of threads. There's no use complaining about something that I can't remotely take advantage of.
