i was training for a super to use in low-sec to fight of invading pirate corps but i guess now il just do what everyone does and stick with a dread and a carrier more cost effective and more useful in so many ways

Well, I have never flown a capital or super, nor have I ever intended to. However, the very idea of removing the ability of such ships to directly do damage kinda makes me sick.


Gotta agree with this. I can see the reasons behind the design decision, but a capital ship not dealing damage is super silly imo. (pun intended).

Just make them more about damage + perhaps the on grid bonus to subcaps than about surviving.

Make it so they can be remote repped, but remote repping etc. shouldn't repair faster than direct active damage.

Make 50 battleships be able to take down one capital with remote rep support.

Subcaps being able to kill supers is the direct opposite what the average null-person wants apparently. After buying a super+toon for 30bil, you're kind of entitled to a godmode.

Look at all those sweet tears.

Titans and mothers are finally being revamped into the sort of ships they should've been from the very beginning. Big fat stationary support-vessels.

So you're going from having a fleet of super capitals, to using one or two? I don't really get the changes. If you're going to do anything, why don't you make it so they're actually used?

I can see a massive flame storm coming in with pitchforks and torches if this goes through.

One does not spend 16-85 billion on a booster ship. Thats what command ships are for, thats what their roles are.
Super cap's are meant for fighting super caps and assaulting pos towers. Thats what their role is.

More importantly why would anyone fly a cap after that?

// cap pilot since 08. Stop messing with my carrier.

Why Can't I have a picture signature.

Also please support graphical immersion, bring back the art that brought people to EvE online originaly.

same reason they are changing nullsec to a king of the hill minigame, they want the old players gone to make room for all the WoW kiddies now that so many have complained aboutt heir latest expansion and left

not to mention they came out with their "levers and dials" spiel shortly after the "i quit" and disillusionment threads reached their peak for elite dangerous, and everyone's love of Frontier was stemming from their "no dynamic content, all things happening will be curated by Devs personally for your entertainment, unless your toof ar away from our dart-baord choices, then **** you"

honestly, im putting EVE on ice until I see some kind of coherent, meaningful, and constructive content from CCP, because all phase 2 is seems to be change for the sake of change and nerfing anything that alot of people use

hell, they nerfed mothers/titans because "waaah, too many people had them", so what happens when everyone is rolling again in balls of battleships using sheer numbers to make up for tracking issues on anything smaller than themselves?

oh wait they cant because nothing but interceptors and recons will be able to participate in SOV minigames, but those are cruisers/frigs, so its totally okay if thats all anyone fields

and of course lets shard out null into 4 servers anyways, since timezone mechanics means obviously CCP doesnt want euros playing with americans, or americans playing with aussies, or anyone playing with russians.

I have a eve friend that was able to get sov, without the use of any capital ships. and CCP says they need a nerf, lawl Does CCP really think that changeing the way Supercapitals are will make even better,

CCP may of coded the game and all that Jazz, but it's the Eve players, that make eve what it is today, and what eve will be tomorow., takeing away something players have trained hard for and sweated isk or rl money into a game to make it great,

And you just think you can simply remove it. Why not be smart about it for once, and make certain nullsec systems immune to capitals being built or brought in so the little guys actually can take sov, while the bigger guys roll around in supercapital orgys

EN24 was a touch sensationalist about it. (big surprise, no?)

Woo! CSM XI!

In all seriousness now, if this goes trough, it will be funny to see the WTS orders on supers.
