It would really be nice to see all the CPM members views on the ADS issue. So far I have only seen Soraya whine about it and no other input from a CPM. All I'm asking of you is to do the job your peers elected you to do.

I didn't whine about it. I supported the changes. :)
I will nudge the other CPM members though.

I don't think a single platform should ever allowed to be equivalently weighted to multiple teams performance wise.

My views are in process as I am currently observing ongoing testing here. Based on numbers prior to Delta changes were warranted, whether the Delta changes were too much or too little will be ascertained via testing and in game data gathering and adjustments will be advocated for and made as warranted.

Thanks for the responses, 4 more to go and some more in-depth opinions hopefully.
I don't get why everyone thinks you need multiple mercs to take care of 1 ADS. Pre-Delta I could go 1v1 with any ADS pilot in this game and keep them from doing their job. Your run of the mill pub ADS pilot I could 2v1 no problem.
As I've said in the other thread; I want a challenge, not AV EZmode. These ADS stand no chance with their pitiful ROF. |

Because you don't seem to understand that dropships should die. It's not about keeping them from doing their job, it's about being able to kill them.

Judge is unlikely to comment any time soon as he is unfortunately on an extended "afk" due to unavoidable IRL circumstances. Also it is worth noting that, as has been said before, the CPM (and CCP as well for that matter) read far more threads than we comment in. I myself for example try to keep my posting to a minimum unless I have something specific to say. Hence why I have said so little on this subject thus far (until a comment was requested) because for me the jury is still out.
Cheers, Cross

Justification would mean the price tag of the ADS should be near the roof to compensate for normal loss of isk in normal amounts of game play and making a single ADS much more expensive than a battalion of protofitted HAVs
While CPM does preach about never balancing around isk costs remains true because isk costs should only be factored on one thing and one thing alone which is Life expectancy.
Combine with the terrible fact I am not the best player; and yet I too can get to the average lifespan performance of the ADS is a very clear indicator on how much skill you really don't need to justify the price and if I am amongst the bottom tier of folks imagine what the top tier folks are doing.
Or simply better put.
the pre-delta ADS was NOT designed for a 16 vs 16 game, its performance was much more suited to a game that let you consistently pit 248 players together.

I support the changes. They were required and necessary.
That's not to say we'll not be monitoring them and looking to see if they need adjusting, we will be. But there were some troubling metrics from ADS that needed to be addressed in some manner. Balancing by ISK is never a good idea and would've made the ADS prohibitory expensive to all but corp funded pilots. Not a good idea, I'm sure you'll all agree.
Delta was a huge Hotfix and we are monitoring all of the changes made. If adjustments need making, we'll push for them. But right now, a day after the fix was deployed, is not nearly long enough for us get updated metrics. Once we get clear information from how the changes effected all the aspects of the game that Delta touched on and please remember, a lot more than just ADS got changed, then the issue will be looked at.

I kill them plenty, ask Derrith. yes, but you're one of the best forge gunners in the game. You also use the best build in the game, a caldari sentinel. The game should be balanced for all, not just the uber 1337.

This is the mantra that we used for Delta and for the following Hotfixes to come. Balanced for all.

I will admit I may be a little biased as I only play PC and we all know the difference between PC and pubs.
I just don't want PC to get less exciting because some people in pubs died.
Thanks for that hug D, this chub's for you. |

It is really tough to engage A/V. I am always finding myself flying off after 1 shot 2 if I am lucky at the A/V. Even in a pub match or PC it's no fun if both are not able to interact. I don't die and nor does the A/V user. As it is I end up just flying off to another zone on the map until the A/V is killed, or decides to do something else. It's great to see an actual A/V player understanding that Assault dropships want to fight back. Thus far I have only seen Saraya and his club members posting on any and everything dropships without even reading what the subject is about.
