EVE General Discussion

Stealth bombers are one of the only counters for the blob.

Okay why does that mean they need the ability to instalock after decloaking?

Last I checked you don't need to lock anything to launch a bomb

aren't bomber supposed to be hit and run type ships, regardless of whether they're firing torps or bombs?

last i checked when you're doing hit and run type stuff waiting after decloaking generally went against that.

1: I can agree with you that force projection isnt perfect, but you'll never make an mmo without blobbinh. Thinking anything else is just sheer stupidity. Besides you can figth against greater numbers, you just have to grow a brain first.
2: Stealth is good, stealth is perfect as it is. If your one of those people that sit docked when someone is cloaked in a system, don't that say more about you than the cloaky?
3: By design.. I'm pretty sure you wouldnt like the alternative..
4: Thats why in an MMO, people work together.
5: Since this is an MMO, theres other players around, maybe they know whats happening on the other side of a gate. You can ask, if you cant, something is wrong with you.
6: I manage, solo, 2 large and a medium pos in highsec. What are you talking about? I've fended of agressors before. It's easy, just have to grow a brain first.
7: And your point is? Carriers/dreads are not counterparts to supers and titans. Its like comparing frigates and battleships.

You sir, don't know much about the game, and it speaks volume about the organisation your in.

Translation, I can't make any friends so this game sucks.

Confirming, this was the right move.

On the topic: I hate everything, especially the forums. I cannot stop coming here.

Yeah Eve's a load of **** because its not an fps. Imagine for a second actually trying to pvp if on top of everything else you had to control a ship on the 3 dimensional plane with wasd. Even joystick or freelancer style mouse control would reduce the game to a boring pile of ass.

Please lance your wasd craving with fps and space shooters, eve is not either of those, to its benefit.

Edit: Double Post

...to play a mmorpg by one's self is illogical.

I'm merely a highsec bunny so I'll ignore anything relating to nullsec

3: Bumping is a valid tactic to stop someone from doing something, whether it's mining, warping or docking. Believe me you don't want it to do damage, Jita undock would become a graveyard, exhumers, haulers and freighters would explode when bumped at sufficient speed, regardless of the size of the ship doing the bumping. Modern physics actually backs this up, look at kinetic energy and conservation of momentum, as well as the theory behind kinetic bombardment (normally only applies to dropping things onto planets from a great height but given the Dust tie in, it's relevant).

4: Highsec wars are between corporations, if you're a one man corporation, that's your problem, make some friends, hire some mercs, use allies. The mechanics are already in place, some people just choose not to use them.

5: Blind gates, you can already see what's waiting for you on the other side of a gate, it's called a scout in a cheap cloaky ship, once again the mechanics are in place, and once again some people choose not to use them.

6: POS's are meant to be a corporate asset, they can however be controlled by an individual player quite easily by using the mechanics already in place. If a person wants their own highsec POS then there are people who will quite happily sell them a corporation with the required faction standings to have one, one person can even defend a highsec POS successfully, it's what military experts call a d*ckstar.
