That is essentially what they are doing

Moar Q&A, including a Miscellaneous section!

Supers can already warp in a single MWD cycle with existing 500mn MWDs. Additionally, there will be a 'Web Resistance' attribute on supers/titans.

Good job missing the point of the question.



So what actually happens to Remote Cap Reps/energy transfers already fitted to a (super)carrier?

Price range of carriers to dreadnaughts is pretty significant, more than 100% in some cases. If FA are intended to die as a balance factor then I would like to see them at the cheaper end of the scale.

I personally feel that completely removing the ability to use capital remote assistance modules is overkill. Yes, slowcat RR doctrine is horribly, horribly broken, but I feel a better option would be a massive stacking penalty - 100%, 50%, 5% kinda deal *on the receiving ship* similar to the new damage mitigation on the structures - this would allow a *small* force to support one carrier with another carrier while not being completely OTT.

So far as how to change the ships over, I will re-state a method that I have mentioned in the past that I feel would be ideal for this sort of deployment - Create a new character in CCP Alliance called "CCP Ship Exchange" or something along the lines, and script it similar to the moveme bot where any valid item exchanges assigned to it are immediately accepted and a new contract is created to the original person including the relevant racial RFA, anything that was originally fitted.

Like the issue of dreads blabbing everything?
Or the "issue" this will nerf the stupid cashcow that is escalationfarming?

@CCP Larikin: Just to clarify, remote assistance modules will also be effected by ewar-resistance and capacitor transfer by neuting resistance?

and you're ok with this? don't you think caps should have their proper align times of 30-40 seconds?

and this flat ewar resistance is only going to give them very limited vulnerability to damps and tracking disruptors, because of stacking. 50% ecm resist, well I'll just bring twice as much to get it done. 50% damp and td resist and that's it, I can damp them from 250km lock range down to like 150km or whatever, it's useless. bringing more won't do anything, since it'll still stack out at 3 or 4 modules.
I think ideally you would want to tweak the stacking so you could just bring more ewar to achieve the same effect as stacking out damps against a subcap. or we can just all use ecm all the time if you like, if it's going to be way better.

the only other things that irk me about the cap changes is there has been nothing said about making the jump drive into a cancellable timed thing like a mjd, and also nothing about carriers/supers deploying at long range and just being aligned out all the time. I think things will still be way too slippery and noncommittal if they have battleship align time and instant right-click teleporting. I'd probably prevent them from fitting cloaks as well but whatever.

OK heres the thing. Whenever Supers or Titans are dropped every man and his dog within a 30 jump radius turns up to either attack, defend or whore on the kills.

The current remote repair mechanics allow damage to be negated by RR supers but by saying that essentially the highest amount of DPS your fleet can tank is what a single FAX can locally rep means that Supers and Titans will never be dropped because eventually you're fleet will get burned through 1 FAX at a time and theres f*ck all you can do to keep your SC's alive against that sort of DPS.

At the very least there should be something that reduces the Triage time so that a FAX has a chance of survival when the world and his wife shows up.

Even perhaps a 10% reduction in the cycle time per Racial Force Auxillery skill (or something) would allow a properly trained pilot to exit Triage and get some life back. Otherwise its just going to be a suicide mission and no SC escalations.

1-2k dps from a seiged dread dps is too low, knowing that they will still takes ages to lock anything.

Seriously, Blap is fine. If you wait 30/60sec+ to lock something that fail to warp out or get range, then you should be able to nuke it asap.

When will you adress the feedback recieved from the playerbase regarding the current state of force projection?
