Is it a joke or something.

40 Second Load Time
18 Shots


Just logged into SISI after I heard CCP was nerfing the Rapid Lights.... They didn't nerf them, they removed them completely from use for any but a wanna-be missile ganker.... if there is such a thing.


Does CCP realize there are other people playing this game besides PVP players, and I can't imagine a PVP player fitting these piles of garbage.


It was the best Missile weapon in game and they pulled it.... I am blown away at this..

Don't give a rats who trolls this thread...... takes all the wind out of my Cerberus Pilots sails.

Just ignore them - as we do with many other in-game features.

P.S. 40 sec load time? It's strange even by CCP's standards.

wow that is a crazy nerf.

Guess you'll need something else to do your 4/10s

They changed RLMLs I think because they want more people to branch out into using HMLs and HAMs more.

The problem wasn't that RLMLs were too good. The problem is that they massively overnerfed HMLs last year and didn't budge afterwards, and as a result HMLS are pretty much the worst weapon system in the game (I think medium rails are almost barely usable now so there's less contention between the two), and then also that HAMs have poor range and, much like HMLs, suffer from poor damage application. You need a painter/web in order to make either cruiser missile system more than laughably ineffective against certain targets, and... Oh look. Most missile ships shield tank. Oh, look at this. Webs and painters cut into your tank. So you need to trade survivability for damage application- a problem that most turret based ships do not have because they also just happen to armor tank, meaning mids are free for whatever.

IIRC most cruisers even can easily mitigate damage coming from HMLs and HAMs, which... Are fit by cruisers. RLMLs didn't do loads of paper damage but they at least applied a very good amount of that, to more targets, which made them a more attractive weapon system.

I know this, I was just amused that you stated a scenario where, actually, they wouldn't be worse.

RLMLs are not supposed to be good at killing bigger ships. That's what HMLs/HAMs are for.

CCP has lost touch with reality with these changes in my honest opinion. And they don't give a **** what we think clearly.

So your complaint is that they made a certain module better at its intended role, but worse for off-label purposes and, because of this, you have to actually play the game instead of AFKing your way through missions.

This might just be the very best entitlement-bear post of all time.

If you do that the nerf to sustained DPS is pretty massive.

No where did I say I was right...... and I accept that CCP "Gives" and then they "Take Away".

Just saying "To Complain" is my voice of my gaming experience.

So for me, they removed the weapons use, but I may have another character down the line that might find some VERY limited use for this new weapon.

This is just no longer a PVE weapon, but perhaps it wasn't meant to be that.
I play this game in sessions, play it heavy for a few months, then don't play for a year, then back again.
This last time around I discovered this new RAPID weapon when I logged in and fell in love with it... (yes, you can love an electronic weapon, if you game).... the romance is over - that's all... I figure I have a few more months, then off again I go to some other games for a years break...
