Cost is not a balancing factor. .



Roll Yeah that whole risk reward thing should go right out the window.

Lets make titans free like rookie ships.

Make faction war occupancy pvp instead of pve https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=53815&#post53815

No. But that doesn't make cost a balancing factor.

The main problem isnt the ship or any of its possible counters guys.
No, the ship and the lack of counters is pretty much the problem. That, and how people insist on injecting irrelevancies such as cost as a way of determining what the ship should or shouldn't be able to do.

Also, nice necro.

As has been said before,Titans when they are fit for tracking & DPS,are very much glass cannons,a fleet can easily take out a glass fit titan,just need to have a pair of nuts,nothing needs changing on the titan basis. What does need changing is for Titans to only be able to be used in 0.0 as its very much a Sov war that Titans are used for. Goons want Titans nerfed under the basis of if they are, then they will then be able to WIN @ eve by pure numbers but poor quality players. Why give the blob factor of numbers the WIN button,when you can counter it to a degree with Titans/Supers + support of what numbers are a fraction of Goon blob numbers,why take that concept of possibility away? If 1 titan is lost,then efficientcy sways massively how ever many Supcaps are lost. CCP once again have been listening to Goon CSMs whining far too much,hence why you are failing at EVE.Facepalm.
P.S. Mittens is modern version of Hitler.

The bottom line is that if we keep titans as is in two years half of eve will be in titans and eve will explicitly be an n+1 game.

What will the forces of elite pvp do when they're titans are outnumbered by our titans?

Having a linear progression to 'the best ship' will destroy everything about EVE that's cool.

True wich is why the game needs to be developed further,bringing in new counters,new capital ship types,& developing 0.0 for just Supercapitals. Every1 is going to progress & prior to the stupidity of this so say patch,every1 would of wanted to 1 day have a titan,but whats the point after making them a coffin?The whole nerf is due to Goons failing @ EVE,and becuase they fail @ EVE every1 has to pay the price.

lol, the day I have to train to caps is the day I unsub, for good this time.

I like to roam nullsec in (relatively) cheap ships that I can pew anything that looks good with and not give a rat's ass if it explodes or not. Which is pretty much everything cap warfare isn't.

Sorry but this is a sandbox, not some stupid wowclone of grinding to the next best thing that the developers have to patch in every 6 months.

Titans should have a place, but that place should not be the end all be all in eve.
