Dear ccp, i know many people who think exectly as i do. We all just want to have an opportunity of testing cruisers, bc, bs.
But as soon as we placed on ca1 or ca2 at the most case we automaticly are a primary targets for cap ships. They dont want to shoot to each other they just want popping people which are smaller.
I'd like u ccp guys just set spots as it was in 2008 at sisi. I will remind what was marked like at that time:

1 arena for whole ships in the game
2 arena for every type of ships except cap ships
3 arena for bc, cruisers
4 arena for cruisers and smaller
5 arena for frigs and destroyers

Thank u for attention and hopping ull do it best way.

I totally agree. Testing has become unbearable. This complicates the testing of new ships and battle tactics. Ask clean up.

Yes

possible solution:
Remove cap ships from the market at the station in 6-CZ49. Make them available, for example, in PVH8-0.

There's a reason these rules were removed; CCP/BH simply didn't have time to enforce them, and that is probably still the case.

These guys are for capital ships in the way. They require separate arenas. This is a big problem.

If all the people that complained about caps would go there, it'd be much more than 4. PVH is the designated sub cap system, it won't be switched no matter how much you complain because in the end, the test server is not there to be used as your personal EFT playground.

it would be personal if i was alone in that. but at least 50% would support that idea. no one wants to fight some1 who gets a cap support when he loses just for to kill u and not let to die his own ALT.
the separation from caps is extremely required.
the only persons who don't want it just doing that kind of coward stuffs by themself.

Do you realize that it is pure playground for capitals pilots right now?

as for CCP. I am pretty sure they don't really care about this issue. Its just not a priority. The test server exists as a tool to help them develop eve and dust.

The test server does not exist to ensure that you get a fair fight in ships that have no value.

if you want a fair fight, arrange one.

You are lucky that CCP is nice enough to let players use their development testing server.

They do care or they would have a Titan seed.

I think it would of a mutual benefit if they had Super Cap seeds out in Syndicate or some place and let people splode their supers all day long.

Test systems with beacons, Supers are off limits. I've never figured out why they had to be so contrary on this issue.

I cannot agree more, I much preferred the old days (FFA 1 sub cap and under ect).

With regards to CCP not having time to enforce the rules previously it was the players who enforced the rules, I remember a few times caps were in the wrong FFA they were asked to leave and if not everyone ganged up on them, Simplez.

My life doesn't depend on the test server but when I actually want to test something I would prefer not being overrun by caps.

I agree completely,


In the future, when ccp Does the BC and up balancing , the need to get quality fights to see what is OP and what is not, what is working correctly and what is not is going to increase. Capital ships hinder the ability to test out the new game mechanics, modules, ships and how these all fall into place.

You don't need a name on the beacon to do this though.

As much as I loved the old system, it was just becoming to much of an issue to keep checking reports, banning people etc for stupid rule violations (which i believe encourage people to do this).

The new system is much better as it mirrors the Live Server much more closely in terms of the randomness.
This isn't a place to test PVP fits, its a place for CCP to test server updates etc, when there's no testing going on (like now) then as a benefit we can use it to test fits etc but don't expect any support for it.

If you really don't like caps and **** go next door to PVH and convince other people to go with you as its not very well known.
