I have to say great job listening to Completely Pathetic Management (CPM) once again. You adjust heavies without waiting to see what happens in the player bases hands testing vs the more powerful and changed splash weapons and lasers. But you let tanks sit for what will prob be 6-8 months or more before making even the smallest of adjustments?
I know CCP has a record of excellence to maintain (sarcasm) but really try slightly loosening your head from your ass, or at the very least wiggle your head around to make some breathing room in there. You play test like old people ****. |

CCP Concluded the need for the Nerf in their testing.
Get your story straight.
Its nice to know your oh so capable of winning those oh so hard fights Saber..... I'm surprised you found the time to say anything between all the sucking and swallowing. Must have been like those last 10 seconds of a video when you where wiping your chin and get to mention something to the camera..... |

I'm glad that at least CCP is doing something about heavies, even if tanks are still running amok. IT gives me hope that they will fix them soon.
BS heavies have a ton of factors affecting gameplay as much as tanks if not more. there are far far far more dps considerations affecting a heavy compared to a tank that is only affected by a small minority of the weapons in play. |

Please explain to me the thinking behind the future heavy nerf.
Just had a mosey around the office. My latest understanding is that we haven't fully committed to nerfing Heavy EHP just yet. We're going to keep an eye on it and see how things pan out. That doesn't mean there will or will not be a nerf! - just that we're going to approach it carefully.
thank you, let the playtesting run its course then adjust with feedback and input. Plus you guys have issues with a good portion of the weapons and suits right now that are handicapped by bugs/wrong settings and bonuses. Fix that then let the players test the build when its actually where it should be and working as you intended it to, then we can test under the proper conditions and in PC in a meaningful way. |

The Robot Devil wrote:NextDark Knight wrote:The Robot Devil wrote: Flux killing the rep tool!!! That is hardcore and I kind of like it. Would it only cause the tool to lose the lock or would it cause it to shut down for a time? Very interesting idea. I would not see it as long as the Amarr Weapon overheat but maybe a similar animation for 1.5~2.5 seconds then allow lock on. CCP can tweak the numbers. I like it more than I don't. I am a full time proto rep logi and it sounds fun.
yeah I think it is a good idea. another way to go with it is that if the suit being healed is currently taking damage or has taken dmg in the last so many seconds the rep tool provides a % less heal rate. This would make sense because the nanites would be getting knocked/bucked off the suit do to the incoming fire and its kenetic energy hitting the suit being healed and vibrating it, damaging the nanites or knocking them off as they work to fix the suit. How much a % less and how long the effect lasts would have to be balanced. Same could be done for repair nanohives. if your taking damage you get less overall heal. |

CCP if you want to garner player support you have to engage with the community and discuss things in a moderated way. Throwing around random "20%" numbers and then saying oh well we might not..... that does not help garner support.
Apart from that, this build came riddled with bugs and errors. Granted you expect that in any game on any patch day but no where near the same extent that bugs have prevailed in 1.8.
Also what does rattle peoples cages is the fact that you seem unable to balance really easy things in this game, such as vehicles vs infantry in the form of AV.
You could come out and say - "Ok players, we want vehicles to be quite easy to kill but they will be cheap thus leading to gameplay similar to what you might expect in a battlefield title".
Or
"Ok players this is the EVE universe so some vehicles will be tanked to hell and back and be hard to kill, but for this they will cost an absolute crap ton of isk and we will actually have mechanics that will always mean tanks / vehicles cannot constantly stomp all match long".
Ahh I could go on but I feel this has all been said time and time again without anything changing.
+1 those are both very good intents when it comes to veh vs av strategies. I think for dusts sake the battlefield strategy is the best way to take it. |

Of course, it could be that some of the work that's gone on since then was to actually allow hotfixes to be possible in the first place. We don't know everything, nor should we. But if this was true, it would help to say so. We would have better understanding about things that get us riled up.
As for CPM, for me personally, it's not so much what they can and can't do, but the way they go about their business. Their approach is wrong, they rub ppl up the wrong way, and come across as like-whores. I don't have as much respect for them as I should.
*shrugs*
It is what it is, fark it, I'm still having fun. Then again, I didn't spec heavy...yet.
informing is one on the foundations of good leadership. By not keeping us properly informed and up date they breed mistrust and animosity. |
