Reading from patch notes:

Fighters can no longer be assigned to other pilots. The ‘Delegate Control’ option has been removed and replaced by ‘Assist’ and ‘Defend’, same as other drones.


It seems "Assist and Defend" doesn't appears in game for fighters ....
Is this a bug or devs decision?


You are looking at an old version of the patch notes, we have also removed the Assist and Defend options. Capital ships will be re-balanced later this year, we will make them awesome again!

Welp... guess I'm taking a vacation. We'll see if I come back later this year after they are 'awesome again'.


I'm staying, but for a half second I really wanted to triple box anoms with 1 toon in my Machariel and two carrier toons (aligned at full speed to a POS) assigning 26 fighters to it LOL. CCP must have realized what folks like me would have done had they gone through with it lol.



Yup, for a bit I stopped being mad because I had visions of putting 4 supers on grid and assisting 50 fighters to a Huginn. But as I can't even assist now and the atrocious lock times on both supers and the fighters themselves mean it will take over a minute to acquire targets, fighters are now useless in combat. I spent the last year training half a dozen super pilots, meaning Fighters 5 on each one, so I am pretty pissed now that my investment both in training time and the supers themselves was for a paperweight. I don't think CCP deserves a single dime more out of me after disrespecting me in such a manner.

Yeah, I'm loving that CCP had a whole thread discussion soliciting feedback on the proposed changes just so they could ignore all the pilots and go ahead with their asinine "fix" for everything...

Let's not worry about the fact high-sec is basically just gank-central that's killing new-players attempting to trade (and making them rage-quit), no lets target all the happy veteran pilots and screw them out of training time by killing off something that could have just been tweaked, so that all the veterans are just as pissed off as everyone else and also want to quit paying us to develop anything again ever.

screw us, screw you CCP.

Oh, and where's ISD Ezwal? I wish i could like his thread closing/locking posts; the comments and reasons he leaves behind are golden! Big smile


Thank you for your concern good citizens of General Discussion. There will be times where UaE will not be able to immeadiately and appropriately troll a thread. Luckily, I have spent years giving you all examples of my good works in which to use as a guide, as well as raised many an apprentice who can, in my stead, take to the fields of battle with my full support.

Now, as for this thread, do I really need to make a response to 'Eve is dying' thread #9,880,332.5, or 'CCP wai u change mai gaem" thread# 4.622.002? Do I truly need to once again ask for someones stuff before they leave for the greener fields of P2W lvl 90 Pandarian monks? Should I need to radio the Waaaaaaambulance because somoneones tears are running down and irritating their already tender posterior region because their winbutton skynet is gone?

Anyways, im sure glad that OP belongs to 'Forged in Fire', because after a boatload of tripe like the first post, there will be no shortage of flames.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

As a Cap Pilot i can understand why CCP introduced jump fatigue, Force projection was out of control, but at the same token alot of us will miss the epic clashes such as B-R. Sad

Primae was a promotional gift, rorqs I will give you. Every other ship DOES have a use and does see use.

My bad. I'm just used to every response on here being sarcastic and angry.



But speaking of rorqs, CCPLS FIX.

Just to continue the trend...

I remember 2 years ago there were 70k players online at peak times, now it's hardly even reaching 10k.

I suspect carriers will still be incredibly useful for Sov Null. Their repping power alone means, in small numbers, they can compensate for entire wings of logi. Have you ever fought in a T3/BS fleet backed by a carreir or two? You can take some incredibly fun fights.

Small Gang capital warfare is probably the most fun I've had in EVE ever.

Then again they want high sec people to go and invade null sec systems. If they wanted to hold sov, there are like hundreds of corps/alliances to join. Does CCP really need to revamp SOV for these little leeches?

I am not high sec people and I will invade. I can be you new Overlord you pay taxes/rent to Cool

With no major battles, no major ships lost, what happens to all those who do manufacturing?
Some small alliance spent billions on upgrades, members donated isk for eggs. They felt like it was home. Now a few grievers can come in and take it all away.

err... why would you *NOT* defend it??

Nerf sentries, nerf ships, make jumping almost impossible with fatigue.
Used to be a good 50k people in EVE on weekends a few years ago, now about 38k. What do you think will happen now after these crazy patches?
If CCP hates this game so much, why not just close it? They're taking out so much which people worked for for all these years.
I'm very sad about most of these patch notes, tomorrow's and in June. I've been here for years and hate seeing this wonderful game imploding.

Your world imploding because you won't defend your assets in-game is not the same as the game imploding.. sorry.

Do you really want to bring about the apocalypse? We already have a number of our media scientists hapring on the dangers of Ai, and here you go and taunt them?
What do you want next? The brain in a box system to be done literally and we then have to fight an awakened cyber god? I'm already dealing with the wonders of being posioned from my return to home from Fanfest, I'd rather not also have to complicate next year by explaining to the TSA why I need to carry a collapsible 10 meter parabolic array and 50 kilowatt up converter to power my 27 megajoule solid state capacitor bank.
They already were curious enough when I brought in an omnisensor to see if there were truly signs of life in Iceland (there were incidentally, Pub Crawl is fun, and seeing the devs signing and dancing on stage while drunk was hilarious.)

But no please, do not taunt anything with teeth bigger than your thumb, do not name your projects or plans in ways that harken to hubris or folly, and above all, do not read ancient incantations aloud at once!
