Supercarrier changes are hilariously bad

Supercarriers are now immune to ECM burst. How much more of a buff do you need?

Wrong way, CCP! Go back! Supercapitals should not gain immunity to EWAR, just very high resistance to it.

why not shoot him for designing a ship that thinks its underwater


Why not let him live, and instead tie up the guy who designed the Moa and leave him for the dickwolves to find?

Thats absurd and I want the engineer of the Erebus shot in the street.
Why on earth would you need to (or bother with) something as pitiful as five tiiiiiiiiny drones when you have entire legions of ships and millions of men at your command to do your bidding?

The engineer was probably told that bothering these people with such trivial matters would be tantamount to treason and would get him shot in the street.

Difference is that titans can get tracking linked and remote sensor boosted while sieged dreads cannot. It's totally not a design flaw!

No they can't this has been fixed, read the description of the ships on SiSi.

I don't see anything regarding that.

A 20% reduction in shield, armor, and structure hp. So a 60% nerf in titan ehp. So so happy.

No. It's a 20% nerf.

20% A + 20% B + 20% C = 20% (A+B+C)

Hooray for elementary math!

Take a 20% slice out of 3 wheels of Cheese and you still have 80% left. Saying they got a 60%nerf is as absurd as saying they got a 240% buff.

Maxim 6. If violence wasn’t your last resort, you failed to resort to enough of it.

Firstly; I had to leave my office half way through reading this thread to buy cheese and oatcakes.

Secondly; Porte Salut

Thirdly; SCAPs will still **** train anything with a sig radius of a BS or above (as has already been mention, Drakes = LSEs = Omnomnom) with its fighters, will still tank like well, a tank, can lay down serious hurt against other caps, has invulnerability to all ECM and can't be pinned by anything that isn't a bubble or a HIC

They are still powerful weapons, they need help killing stuff that isnt a Drake or a Battleship, this is good, it is supposed to give my Hurricane something to do.

PS SCAPs are not my end game, I know many long time players who never wanted to fly one, I may be convinced to get a Carrier one day but that is the end of it.

PPS Why would you not just warp away from an Ibis, unless they can fit HIC fields now, which is an interesting buff to the Noob Ship.

Your post would have been better if you were trying to garner the support of your fellow forumites instead of insulting them just for the hell of it.

That said, this (potentially good) topic is now about cheese.


I don't think I am insulting most forum-dwelling fatbodies. I think I am insulting CCP... but correct me if I am wrong.. :p


The cluelessness of your post was insulting enough.

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!

A lesson for u @ creating isk sink 101

Take something really expensive
Make it really awesome
Let ppl hop on the band waggon with hugh amount of isk invested (implants shiny mods)
Nerf it so demand crashing and everything devalue´s:
- characters lose billions of vaulue due less demand
- ships due less demand,
- implants, ect
-mods going to crash due not worth fitting

This is about trillions of isk that is getting lost in kills and devalued

If relativity equals time plus momentum, what equals relativity, if the momentum is minus to the time?
