You would because you're a ****** Goon. Your sole purpose in EVE is to destroy it


CCP, this is a terrible idea. There are so many other ways you could balance titans


But if you insist upon this ******** "balancing", bring AoE Doomsday back then

We have TiDi, AoE doomsday won't be nearly as bad as it used to be


But I'm beginning to think that CCP no longer runs this game, and that Goons dictate what they want to happen, and it does. -A- cried about Doomsdaying of sub-capitals, BAM. No more doomsdaying sub-caps. Goons are crying about titans, and their "OPness", BAM. Titans get "nerfed"

First observation, Goons have more titans/supers than all of Raiden, PL, NCdot, and other alliances, put together. They CHOOSE to not use them, so why must you punish those who do use them

You've removed drone bays, you've removed sub-cap doomsday'ing, and now you're removing their ONLY line of defense. Think hard before you reply CCP, we're beginning to think you're incompetent in developing & balancing this game further.

I think the opportunity to even post intelligent stuff in this thread is gone but here goes

With regards to the nerf i agree with the tracking nerf something did need to be done there even if it was just a temporary measure. However the targeting nerf is ridiculous

As a person who has been on both sides of a titan fight i can understand why people are whining however this nerf appears to be incredibly short sighted

CCP have thought about how to balance titans to what they believe is an acceptable level but they have failed to take into account how this affects the game as a whole. Titans do need a clearly defined role however CCP have just nuked titans because they claim they don't have the resources to do an overhaul so they slapped something together and just put it in a forum post

Titans will loose their place as an endgame piece of equipment because dreads will be just as effective and cheaper to field what alliance is going to waste time expanding their titan fleet when all they become is a massive jump bridge with a DD

For those who say titan pilots are complaining too much you have to understand that titans don't just grow on trees for some people. For those who aren't in larger alliances or those who don't have tech money it actually does take time and effort to build a titan

From a political standpoint CCP are effectively changing the balance of power towards alliances who can just field hundreds of subcaps. The alliances who rely on supers to augment their fleet strength have been forgotten and just pushed aside. This change definitely needs to go back to the drawing board and CCP need to take factors like this into account.

holy F*ck.Im sick of hearing about this mythical number 1200.BR or it didn't happen. Especially 1200 maelstroms. The cfc may pull 1200 for a mad all out HD fleet,or possibly the opening night of an invasion that also happened to coincide with a holiday.Other than That I call bullsh*t.So again battle reports or it isn't happening!


I've been in Goonwaffe for two years. I can count on one hand the times we've (the CFC) had 1200 people in subcaps. People talking like we do that on a regular basis are dumb.

No, I think it was the time we had like 300 people and we died and reshipped 3 times so we lost like 1200 ships, if it was maels, it would be like the start of the recent war before we started drakes? Because we did have many many reinforcement fleets and the fight went on for like 8 hours or something (TiDied, of course).

I think the idea of people taking out their fourth ship and jumping in to probably die is offensive to more k/d or isk efficiency minded people.

You might not be keen on the idea of using more than one ship type in a fleet but there are things called covops, interdictors, and a thing called probing. If you use those with 200 bombers then yeah you could whittle down a 1200 man fleet or marginalize it from its strategic objectives fairly easily. It's painful to see you try so hard here. You should really step away from the keyboard before you admit to wanting to RMT your titan on these forums in addition to the ones you already have cried on.



1) Ive said my titan will be fine and will function the same as it does now, with a slight delay before the damage hits. Can you identify me saying that I'm RMTing MY titan?

2) If you had 200 bombers, and were facing 1200 guys, how do you propose you talk those 1200 guys into being somewhere bombable??



then why all the cryng? the titan will still be you personal blap machine and all is well.

So...

Titan's aren't able to blap subcaps anymore, relieving the need for people to get the notion that you need to have a character skilled in some kind of capship combat to help your alliance in null-sec fights. Thereby helping and encouraging newbies to get out into nullsec and actually make a difference despite the fact that a drake or a maelstrom may be the best ship they can fly at that point.

I don't see a problem with this change. It helps newbies get out there and make a difference. How is that a bad thing?

In a world where 70m skillpoints aren't required, anyone can shoot a goon. I think I'll go shoot some right now.

I see a quick solution :

All should ally against goons and wipe them off Eve map. We have 1 month, maybe less. Titan blob them until we hear mittani and his sheep crying for mercy.

Why? They'll remove a lot of the titan pilot tears which deserve preservation.

I wonder if you play the game or read forums all day. My wild guess is that you only read forums.
Fine by me. Then let us play the game and drop dead. We don't need you anyway.
