Thanks :)

Still stacking does not makes sense. In any world. It's either on everything or on nothing. Why torpedo launchers dont have stacking? They use cpu. Why reactors have stacking? It's not comparison to real world. Its comparison to basic logic.





Dont matter CCP learned several years ago that stacking penalties were needed .

it is a simple solution to a problem and it works.

to argue against this is pretty much arguing that the basic game mechanics need to be changed.

it's so you can't get OMG UBER stats from stacking invul/other hardeners on top of each other. SEriously, you'd get 90-100% (EM :P ) resists FAR too easily with 4 Invuls if you trashed the stacking penalty



So i can't get two separate computers work on same aircraft at their full capacity because of? Because you know two separate computers work at their full capacity on aircrafts and also everywhere else without any "stacking penalty". This thing is too far beyond logic and breaks immersion heavily.
Maybe they never quite got multi-threading right in New Eden?

The space our ships fly in is an EM field infused vacuum. The warpcore in our ships creats a massive well that drags against the EM field.

Multi-threading is the ultimate example of a real-life stacking penalty.

For my next trick I will prove that black equals white.


Eh wrong...

10x = 9.99
10x != 9.999

10x - x = 8.991

Nice troll though...lol


I assume he meant the 9s to be repeating.

x=.9999[repeating]
10x=9.99999[repeating]
10x-x=9.999[r]-.9999[r]
9x=9
x=1
1=.99999[repeating]


Correct I did mean them to be repeating, thanks for the clarification.


My Apologies, I stand corrected. Whenever you work with infinite concepts Math can get screwy...


I see it as is proof that the Universe has a Rounding Error.

Drinking beer has a stacking penalty.

More than one condom at a time has a stacking penalty.

I could go all day.
