I think the point here is that if you aren't skilled into those specific FOTM fits, you can't really compete... regardless of skill level. I don't think that's entirely accurate, but there is certainly truth there. If you're the kinda guy who likes to skill into more varied and "interesting" things, rather than funnel all your SP into min/maxing, you're just not likely to do that well in PC. |

It has the best players and the best teamwork and the most on the line.
And, FWIW, our corp has a few PC battles every week.
Lastly, and to the OP's point, the reality of the broken PC mechanic is that only a few individuals are reaping significant rewards by farming -- and I suspect that number is far smaller than the OP thinks....and certainly not enough to warrant the generalizations in the opening of this thread.
Said a bit differently, I can afford to run Proto 100% of the time not because we lock down our 10 districts, but rather because I've been playing this game for a long time and I have over 100M ISK and nothing to do with it. I gain virtually nothing by the actions of my corp.
Respectfully...Leadfoot
Wait, you have 10 districts but your corp has a few PC battles every week... that doesn't seem to add up. Is PC really that dead at this point? |

a) The system is working exactly as designed, just being used in an unintended way
b) There has been no 100% official confirmation that PC District Locking (which is what I assume you're talking about) is an exploit
c) It has persisted for going on nine months now.
I'm of the opinion that players shouldn't be punished for finding chinks in the armor. Fill the hole, fix the problem - don't take it out on the players.
I 100% agree. This is not something that can be placed on the shoulders of the players, it is definitely CCP's fault. That doesn't mean it isn't completely and ridiculously broken, just that you can't blame players for taking advantage of a completely trash mechanic. |
