1. This is It? - in General Discussions [original thread]
My first post on these forums back in January was not unlike yours, asking where the hell the gas mining platforms and plasma storms are. The short answer is, as Aisha says, Soon (TM). They're working on it. CCP's been trying to get the basics d...

2. [Idea] Balancing shields vs armor tanking - in Feedback/Requests [original thread]

4. Unplayable - in General Discussions [original thread]
Suggestions, no. Guess, yes. CCP has an event going right now that's guaranteed to boost server load over the next four weeks. The idea may be to stress-test their system over a semi-extended period of time, make sure that it's ready for the big ...

9. Hints, Tips and Advice for Sniping. - in General Discussions [original thread]
Hm. Well, if you don't use it already, may I recommend the tactical sniper rifle? A corpmate tipped me off to it a few days back, and I've been enjoying counter-sniping much more, since. The head glitch isn't gone, but it's easier to compensate fo...

14. Hints, Tips and Advice for Sniping. - in General Discussions [original thread]
Meh. Sniping's fine; just don't do it to exclusion, especially in Skirmish. A sniper's focus and purpose is to kill people, tidily, from long range. If killing people gets you closer to achieving your objectives, it's a net positive. If not, it's...
