Since I started in 2009 every single aspect of the game has been nerfed in some way. My favorite is when they made sleepers start draining cap as intended, so that you could no longer efficiently solo C3's in a drake. My second favorite is the current loot nerf via reprocessing, especially fun considering the recent Marauder overhaul and introduction of the MTU.

Whats your fav? Discuss.

Reducing Scorpion Navy Issue CPU by 1 so I now need a stupid expensive t1 damage control rather than t2 to fit a deadspace tank I've had on it for 2 years.

Either that or nerfing the Nighthawk model down to a Drake.

It's tough to choose. Help me.

The change to gravimetric signature sites. Finding anyone silly enough to mine in wormholes became easy mode.

It's the nano nerf, because it was really ridiculous before it.

I'm missing the punch line here. How did draining cap nerf Drakes?

You could easily solo a C3 wormhole in a drake when the sleepers were not draining enough cap; then they updated the mechanic. You could no longer solo the sites efficiently afterwards.

Right. I got that part of it. The part I don't get is what kind of a drake you were flying that needs cap?

Okay. Cool. I didn't know that people did that.

Edit for clarity: I didn't know that people active tank ships that are bonused for passive tanks and then complain that they were nerfed when cap drains happened.

Were hurricanes nerfed when HML got the bat because some people drove HML 'canes?

I think I'm going with that as my favorite. Those bastar** stole my HML hurricane and made it completely unusable. And I am pissed.

Tracking titans just because it made Grath so mad.

EVE is a game about spaceships and there's an enormous amount of work to do on the in-space gameplay before players (or developers) are ready to sacrifice it for a totally new type of gameplay - CCP Rise

Actually, the ice was not an ISK faucet Smile In order for something to be an ISK faucet, the ISK for it must come from the thin air and not from other players.

Examples of ISK faucets:
- NPC bounties and mission rewards in ISK;
- sleeper blue loot;
- insurance payout;

These are not ISK faucets:
- moon materials;
- ices and ores;
- faction warfare, concord (incursions) or any other loyalty point store;

Not technically a faucet, as Ria clarified for me.
