I dont have any specific additions to add, just voicing my support (only way to make changes in this game). I've flown most every t1 ship in this game, but would not fly 70% of them ever again, unless something like this were to be ballanced.

alpha partial nerf

Quote:
The plan:
The more locks that are on a target the longer it will take for another lock to be established.


Pro
It does not stop the alpha from happening, just it would take longer for enough ships to lock the target and to apply the alpha strike. This would could give some time for Ewar frigs to do something like: jam, damp, tracking disruption before they get instant pop by enough lucky shots.

Con
The logi pilot's job would get a lot harder, the watch list may need to increase... Or add logi per squad and that logi would be responsible for the first hit aid (for that squad), then after players late broad-cast other logies would jump in to help...

Nonetheless, supported. You should cross-post the linked one into the new forums.

I can agree with the OP here.

For instance, there is No point to buying a Cyclone these days, every newbie just skips over it and seasoned players wont think twice about it when the hurricane is better in every aspect. There needs to be a reason to want to buy these T1 ships which seem to just get overlooked.

Eve online has a tremendous amount of ships, but its starting to feel like some of them don't count Sad


At this point it's pretty much anything that isn't a FOTM ship doesn't count. It's depressing.

+1. This movement has been on the radar for some time now, and as far as I can tell is only recently gaining momentum. This would be a massive shot in the arm of EVE, and there is no reason to not implement it. Sooner than later, please. Big smile

this is it

I don't look for this to happen anytime in the near future but I can dream.

Yeah I first heard about the idea about 2 years ago. I've only started pushing for it now because CCP is actually listening to feedback now. I'm trying to keep this thread bumped enough to get some dev attention for the next iteration pass.

Speaking of which- any dev can confirm or deny that this is on the list or being discussed at least?

I'd like to know this as well.
Some response from the CSM would also be appreciated.

As a long time Ferox pilot, the Naga has all but removed any use for it so I'm fully in support for a tier 1 buff to bring them back in line.

I've linked to my thread in the hope to raise support and awareness

How about all tier 1 BCs get MWD speed boost, making them fast hit and run platforms?

This post sums up why the 'best' work with DCM inc.

WARP DRIVE makes eve boring

really - add warping align time 300% on gun aggression and eve becomes great again

Been wanting this pretty much since I started playing Eve. So many ships, so much wasted potential. T1 BC's, cruisers, and frigates really need some love.

I am totally happy to support this topic and will work whatever magic I can to keep this thing bumped to the top.

I would literally pee my pants if I could NOT feel like a douche for bringing a Ferox out for PvP!

I agree with the OP. T1 ships are the most used in null sec cause of their low prices against T2 that are better suited for their roles, but are a lot pricier to buy and complex to make in null sec warfare, at least, the BC and BS ones. Only the cloaker ones and logictics are any useful.
