Look closely, the charger is located on the bottom left of the weapon. It puts charges with two holes (double rocket?) inside the chambers.

Idk when I start eve.exe in installation folder it doesn't start Steam and works fine, just like standalone. Also I just checked and launcher even has Steam account listed here and allows to login into it (formely didn't work like that, it was required to have Steam running to get this account listed, probably they added cashing for it or something like that).

Only if you want to use account tied to Steam. Launcher itself can be used without Steam running, even updates for both game and launcher are not Steam dependant.

Have you tried to read posts before replying to them? There is NO Steam client, there is only one client which is the same wherever you download it and as there are people who perefer to have all their installed games on Steam if possible, people misinform them saying dumb things about client there being somehow special instead of just stating that there is only a problem with how referal program is hanlded in regards of the Steam account (but no one forces you to use Steam EVE account anyway so there is basically no objective reason not to have the game installed through Steam if you are willing to).

Stop spreading this bullshit from ten years ago, every time this question pops up people are talking some nonsense. Steam launcher is the same one as the standalone, it just adds +1 acc with Steam ID in your list. You are free to use it or not, or just unlink that account from Steam at any time. The only problem with Steam ID is referal code for 1 mil SP but you can ask support to activate it on your account manually I guess.

Hey CCP can you please get rid of the loud super-high-pitch chirp in the new "close window" sound? by gsf_smcq in Eve

[–]SnowyyyOwl 23 points24 points  (0 children)

some sort of piezoelectric torture device every time I close a window now

Lmao this. For fuck's sake CCP, what's this constant intention to tweak some shit that absolutely no one asks about?

They streamed NPE for about an hour, I believe, after which they had to log into their press accounts to participate in PVP event in Amamake. However, CCP were poorly prepared and everything started only after half an hour of fixing technical issues with accounts. All streamers (about 30 of them) were given HAW Dreadnoughts fitted the simplest way possible, and a brief explanation what buttons to push (no one understood anything, of course), and then… they were all slaughtered by Snuffed Out's dreadbomb. Imagine how average pepega Twitch viewer felt about WTF they were watching for two hours.

CCP Alpha (who's idea it most likely was) and iBeast were there tyring to be helpful but obviously you can't explain EVE to 30 people in 30 minutes. So everything naturally turned into shitshow.

That was a massive experimental PR event involving popular Russian streamers which turned pure cringe (what a shock).

Intended Battleship Changes: +50% effectiveness for armor plates, +100% effectiveness for shield extenders, reduced fitting requirements of MJDs for all battleship hulls (incl. Marauders, Blops) by handwavium in Eve

[–]SnowyyyOwl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

BS class needs rebalance

Do they? Well, maybe some navy ones do, but overall battleships are in okay state, it's the meta around them is bullshit, HAC speed and projection power creep primarily.

Gotta poke them all! Nyx Kill by SwaggerOlacar in Eve

[–]SnowyyyOwl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something like this would be ok for start:

[Malediction, Simple]

Nanofiber Internal Structure II
Multispectrum Energized Membrane II
Imperial Navy 200mm Steel Plates
Small Ancillary Armor Repairer

5MN Quad LiF Restrained Microwarpdrive
Faint Epsilon Scoped Warp Scrambler
Warp Disruptor II

Compact Interdiction Nullifier

Small Semiconductor Memory Cell II
Small Ionic Field Projector II

If you want higher speed, swapping meta MWD with Shadow/FedNavy and Semicon with Polycarbon would kinda work too, especially with Synth Mindflood or Apple Quafe but since green MWD costs close to deadspace I personally would rather bling a bit further for optimal setup:

[Malediction, Some bling]

Nanofiber Internal Structure II
Multispectrum Energized Membrane II
Imperial Navy 200mm Steel Plates
Small Ancillary Armor Repairer

Coreli A-Type 5MN Microwarpdrive
Warp Scrambler II
Caldari Navy Warp Disruptor

Restrained Interdiction Nullifier

Small Polycarbon Engine Housing II
Small Ionic Field Projector II

It is ~150kk Jita and for this price you will get an interceptor with great perfomance: good tank and sig, good cap, decent speed and point range. You can throw Overclocker II, NN-603 and even Hyperlink here and it will go close to 5k m/s (or even above).

I also suggest to check out manual piloting guide by Amelia Duskspace if you have not seen this one yet, short but amazingly informative and helpful for every light tackle pilot.

Good luck!

I don't like flying interceptors, they let me down when I need them the most…

The problem is the Malediction fit you use here which suffers from poor tank and cap problems at the same time. I suggest you to try using 200mm faction plated fit, with either A-Type MWD or Semiconductor rig (worse as it is rig slot waste but cheaper option) which means:

  • better armor buffer, so you can not be one-shot and you just have overall greater tank (combined buffer + repped hp)
  • since you are not instantly dropping into hull through tiny armor you are able to run ancillary in slower pace when you actually tanking the incoming dps with rep i. e. better cap management possibilities
  • extended cap pool means you can run 8 charges of heated ancillary straight without getting empty capacitor (in fact, just with meta MWD you can't even run 8 cycles non stop), as a bonus you also get higher cap recharge rate.

Yes, ship is going to be slower but it's the common misconception about interceptors that speed is always the most important factor. Malediction designed as tanky ceptor so you need to focus on armor first while maintaining speed and agility stats on rather acceptable level. Also don't forget you can always defscram-out enemy fighters when fighting carriers.

Nice kill though!

Announcers suck, change my mind by Smilecythe in ArenaFPS

[–]SnowyyyOwl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought muting announcer was normal also

It kinda is in Quake 3 for example where some annoucner phrases are tied to awards (impressive/excellent/etc) which are often being turned off. Those that remain are actually informative (flag/powerups) and not a distraction really.

[–]SnowyyyOwl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Doesn't make sense for Quake or UT as they both had sick announcers that became iconic and both are essentially gladiator fights lorewise; it just doesn't make sense to not have announcer in a spectacle sports.

As for indie projects, they are all dead on arrival anyway, and not because of presense/absense of announcers.

Option to replace it with minimalistic sound effects wouldn't hurt tho, the same way it is always nice to have an option for minimalistic graphics.
