The amusing thing is people are all upset about a few days training but seem quite happy with the fact that drones are now the only weapon system you need to train 20 days PER DAMAGE TYPE to maximise your T2 damage.

The equivalent in missiles would be seperate specialisations for Scrorch/Inferno etc etc

Right, because with missiles to maximize your t2 damage you don't have to train a whole pile of missile specialization skills, one for each missile system.

/sarcasm.

Drones still have the fastest training time of any weapon system to max out your damage, not to mention that something like gallente drone spec 5 affects your like, med, heavy, and sentry drones. Good luck getting a turret or missile specialization to affect small, medium, large, short and long range weapons. I made my third and fourth characters drone pilots specifically because it was that much faster to train them up to have fairly high dps, especially with the ease of drones as a weapon system.

But please, cry more about how hard things are for you.

People cry

CCP apologises and goes out of way to fix problem

People cry they aren't getting ice cream

Why should CCP bother?


Honestly, just enough to make themselves feel good about them "doing a good thing to make people happy", but little else beyond that. For all of CCP's faults that they are guilty of, they sure do get shat on too sometimes.

"Tomahawks?"
