Nice Sir Bruce. And I can't decide which I love more, how seriously you take your Eve: Online A Bad Game or how bad you are at titans shouldn't kill subcaps even at low transversal and optimal range.


I remember when Goons didn't take EVE seriously and then they became infested with pubbie *snip* Please keep it civil. Spitfire.

Changing XL missiles to match

While in a strictly regimented world we ought in principle to nerf XL missiles and remove the penalties from the siege module for them too, in practice they're not actually a problem due to the way missile damage scales against small targets. Leaving them unchanged also serves to differentiate missiles further from turrets, which might make them more useful on capitals under certain circumstances.

Citadel still sucks. What else could we expected.

What is the intended role for titans?

Fleet boosters?
Logistical fleet bridging?
Anti-capital weapons?
Anti-structure weapons?
Anti-subcap blapers?

Please clarify what role the titan is meant to serve, and why it's broken.


You should start by reading old Titan description (before any were built), then search for threads around the time ASCN built first one, then look at CCP's reaction when there were something like 50 titans in game. Maybe you'll get an idea.

If you couldn't figure out by now that Titan will in the future (most likely) lose all offensive capacity except the doomsday, and that it will act as a mobile fleet support platform, then please bot for a titan.

There is no other possible role for Titans that won't break the game.

I wish they've removed titan turret hardpoints altogether.

Death to all supercapitals.

And we have been lucky our enemy have no clue how to fly ships in eve.

1) step in titan
2) make sure everyone else in fleet has titan

don't worry though since you guys are so great at flying ships I'm sure this change will effect you minimally

Wow, ccp you must love goons and blobs. because this nerf make the bigger subcap blob win all fights, congrats mittens and goons, you cried enough on the forums and welped enough fleets into capital weapons that you got what you wanted, a capital weapon shield! gg.


Now wipe those tears Mister. Every cloud and all that, at least now you will learn that PvP is more than just Log on titan > Slam head against keyboard and pwn everything. You may even learn some kills now!!!!

p.s. I will buy your titan, 30b isk ready


i know. because you know lots about PVP
because zergling 1600 man fleet across entire region is real PVP.

the ONLY thing smaller alliances have against nonsense like this kind of a blob was until now to grow some balls and deploy trillions of ISK on the battlefield and try to even the odds.
But that's not real PVP. I know.

CCP Grayscale man... stop embarrassing yourself here saying we don't have time to really deal with this the way it should be. we have no resources for that so we going to deploy the most significant change that will most likely help remove number of alliances from the map without any serious thinking. we will finish this later when goons online is completed.
Until then all of you who spent 120bil buying and fitting a tit go and spend 30bil more so you can get your lock time to around 45 sec.
Its just disrespectful.





Why are you embarrassed to post with your titan pilot char? Lol

Not that you care about my opinion since I don't have a Goon ticker, these changes are literally ********.

These are 100b isk ships that require huge logistical feats to even produce that you want to nerf to be in-line with dreadnoughts with jumpbridges.

You take away all purpose, you appease the drake/maelstrom blob, and you punish your veteran players that have invested enormous amounts of time into acquiring these assets.

Tell me goonie, where is all the money your alliance has earned in all these years? Our isk has been transformed into the titans we field but what about yours? Oh sorry, I know, you have no clue about what your leadership does with the isk and you are not able of think for yourself... Anyway you can repit that RMT song forever if it makes you happy.

This is amazing for anyone who believes that sov warfare should not just be for whoever can bring the most titans to a fight.

Not just us.
It's only about subcaps numbers, baby (and bombers).

The Moros is the new Brutix. Otherwise, this is a bad nerf, and I feel bad for the CCP balance team.

Our technetium income goes into helping the greater part of our members enjoy the game with a comprehensive reimbursement plan. Yours goes into buying titans for directors.

Is there a way to filter out goons and pets in this thread? its just full of trolls..

havent seen 1 descent post from any of you....

personally i think this is just another way down the road where BLOBS win...
really bad.... i remember last time we had this, you CCP were real proud of that right?? no?

So why do you continue the "nerf" way instead of making the big changes to sov. ??

3 tracking mods against mwd'ing drakes with multiple shield mods increasing sig to almost carrier size.
So capitals gets nerfed to use slots for tracking instead of tank or cap etc..... but all other ships can do what ever they want....gratz CCP... you really think about you customers through many many years....
