god damn ccp what have you done!.. how could you come to this... this is the worst expantion i've ever seen in eve... you change the all game by changing tracking and rebalancing carriers.. do you guys know that fighter never miss for now.. almost. 2 carriers instapop armor recon with 60k ehp without any chance for logis to rep them.. god lord.. why they killed the game..

sadly i cannot describe my feelings in english.. i'm so mad.. i'm just about to blow up. i really don't see a reason to play it anymore.. they just making everything for people to die more and buy more plex for new ships.. dats the only reason i see.. if you want to win you need to donate and train carrier and you can solo pvp on it. coz damn thanatos cost now like kronos..

please bring back the tracking in rads/sec.

honestly - this accuracy score is pretty meaningless and has just replaced actual valuable useful information. i though the current design mantra was to remove bad complexity, not add it.

Finally decided to train to lasers and accidently found that previous parameter 'tracking speed' is missing!
Weapon accuracy score?!.
How it is applied to reality?

Let me explain.
When I investigate new weapon system (projectiles, blasters) I carefully examine its stats, ammo's infuence and read 3rd party guides (EVE Uni in my case).
After theoretic part is done I begin actual testing - let's say - I orbit another ship (or NPC) checking changing angular velocity and damage dealt.
After these steps I usualy have initial inspiration on how this weapon system works.

But now - how should I apply this 'weapon accuracy score'?
How it is correlating to actual angluar velocity?
Yea, I understand that big guns is worse than medium and lasers are worse than blasters in terms of tracking, but this is oversimplification.
Somehow I can deal with it intuitively, but imagine someone who is just starting play EVE - he will be confused for sure.

Idea to make things easier is good, but there is the huge difference between simplification and clarification.

+1 to roll back to 'tracking' form 'score' until the better solution.

Also confused by this unheralded (?) change.

Has anyone from CCP commented on this anywhere? I did look fleetingly of course. Lol
