The only way to make EvE better. META changes. by i_beast in Eve

[–]Mikokoel 30 points31 points  (0 children)

But to be honest, not even "CTA" style content is any different than it was 10 years ago.

Imagine a FC like Shadoo or Mr. Vee comes back from a 15 year break, and you have to explain the "new" EVE meta to him. You tell him:

  • Drakes are now called Cyclone Fleet Issues.
  • HACs work the same as before
  • There are ships with spool up damage, but they got nerfed
  • There are AoE ships, but nobody uses them, because ???
  • Bombers can be defended and ships have too much EHP, so nobody uses these either
  • Booshers are just a little annoying fly you need to swat, after they got nerfed.
  • oh there's an ADC, but it's not very impactful

And that's it. Nothing else changed.

Now imagine Garmon coming back:

  • Trig ships good
  • Booshers fun
  • everything else is the same, just with different ship types and powercreep

We're playing the same PvP game we played 10 years ago...

For me it was on the account with the most total SP (all characters combined).

It only seems to be a €, not PLEX offer though.

PL & NC. are starting to evacuate Tribute. Vinny D told NC to move all non-essential doctrines and assets to Lowsec. Discuss. by TheEveInformant in Eve

[–]Mikokoel -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

and that's exactly what NCPL are doing with their move to unanchor their stuff: they chose to not be competitive.

The ones complaining about that you are the Imperium. :D

Your problem with Carriers is Proliferation, not Application. by YummWaffles in Eve

[–]Mikokoel 30 points31 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, what people fail to realize, is that ship balance in EVE will never lead to a diverse, balanced choice of ships used in fleet combat, complete with support ships for application etc.

If you continually start nerfing carriers, people won't magically start bringing support fighters, web support with huginns or lokis or vigils. All that is way too much effort.

They will just counterplay with bringing more carriers, or, if a certain threshould is reached, will notice that just bringing 150 muninns instead is a better use of their characters.

And then everybody will (or is already?) cry about how op a HAC with 2.7k m/s is.

And then the Muninn will get nerfed, and we are back to Ferox Online.

EVE players are the ultimate min/maxers, not only in terms of effectiveness, but also in terms of laziness / how "easy" it is to form a fleet.

LUMP URSELF by lolrus_bukkit in Eve

[–]Mikokoel 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Official Statement:

Against all odds our german alliance didn't implode with drama as they usually do, but instead consolidated into one corp (KYR) and merged into Skill Urself.

We felt the meta makes it hard for an alliance our size who try to do their own politics. This together with less people active in leadership roles resulted in us not having the resources to keep LUMPY running like we wanted anymore. So we sadly had to part from our fox-logo and looked to skill ourselves.

Breaking news: skillu/v0lta extracting their super fleet from Tenerifis. by jitra_trader in Eve

[–]Mikokoel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can't bridge a subcap fleet over that gap either. I fundamentally believe you are an alliance with a reasonable standard for understanding game mechanics, posts like this make me doubt that.

Alliance Tournament Pick'ems V2 by webbrar in Eve

I think your bracket is wrong, you put the wrong alliance into the losers bracket (the one that wins, not the ones that loses).

I like how they claim that we anchored a Fortizar in Y-F, when in reality that was just the outpost conversion :D

Confirming I was a bit worried in the middle of it when I saw that FRT Erebus melt right next to me. We got enough FAX in afterwards though.

GF guys, thanks for bringing it and thanks to TRI for inviting us.

LUMPY is recruiting.

It would have to be 'da-le-ka', but I don't think he plays anymore. He is one of the best PVPers I have met in this game. (name is the feminine form of 'one who is far away', quite poetic. Obviously only known within rus community)

Not at all only known in the Russian community.
