EVE General Discussion

You heard it devs 10sec delay is not cool. Your expansion made this problem put some time onto fixing it.

Why you want people to live and stuff?

Ohh i am sure me and 1000 other people have made bug reports but devs only read general chat.

If only there was some sort of bug reporting system that people could use.

I'm not working at CCP, but I'm pretty sure that they aren't hiring people to receive, read and send bug reports if these said reports are not used properly after. It would be a waste of money.

Don't use cloak with HIC - cloak has the same debuff with hic bubble than other ships with targeting. You cannot create bubble right after decloaking - you'll have to wait that 10sec like every other ships does.

why? I think this was exactly the intention...

While having the cloaking delay effect HIC bubbles now makes sense, there are however many inconsistencies with HICs and Interdictors. For instance back in October I think it was last year CCP made it so that an Interdictor's sphere launcher's activation timer was no longer reset by a stargate or wormhole jump. Meaning that you can no longer say, land on a wormhole and launch a probe then jump through and immediately launch another which in effect made single bubble fits worthless for wormhole PVP. At the same time the inconsistent part I was speaking of is that a HICs bubble activation timer still does reset upon jumping so it can perform in the situation listed above. You would think if it was so unfair for the Interdictor to perform such a maneuver that having a HIC being able to do it would be much more unfair considering their massive EHP and survivability VS. Interdicters which are lovingly called "Flying Coffins." Now another such inconsistency comes in between HICs and Interdictors when cloaking devices are utilized. A HIC can no longer throw a bubble immediately upon decloaking while an Interdictor can still launch a probe immediately after de-cloak, which pretty much makes this new "nerf" moot since if you want to do a good old fashioned bubble trap in w-space you could simply de-cloak a HIC and a Interdictor at the same time and launch a probe to catch your victim while the HIC waits out it's timer so it can throw it's bubble and be the primary means of tackle. I think it all comes down to some groups of people cried loudly enough about it that CCP changed it without even thinking about how it would effect the gameplay just like they have done with crimewatch. Highsec is basically ruined for me as grief was one of my favorite and the most easily found form of PVP in highsec at that time. I'm not saying to change it either way I'm just trying to outline the inconsistency of it all. Also this whole new thing about the cloak re-activation delay following you through wormhole jumps is just stupid. Uncloak on a wormhole and jump and immediately try to move and cloak again and sometimes it says you have to wait, so any potential prey has just seen you because CCP changed something without telling anyone...again.

Thanks, lol.
