18.04 Release - General Feedback

Don’t know if you noticed but DSTs are still very tanky, just no longer absurdly tanky. 150K ehp with two invulns and 2 extenders is plenty of tank. If you got into situation where your tank decides everything you are either getting smartbombed (and blockade runners other than prowler can be sbed) or you royally screwed up… or just got really unlucky (gotta love spawning on top of billboard)

If someone is running full cargo fit, it’s as low as 8k (astronautics rigging 1) with all other skills 5.

Then he deserves to die with fire.
Why would you cargo expand mining barge???

maybe, yes, maybe, no.
But my point is still valid - This Release wasn’t targeting and even considering DSTs. But had a great impact. The only thing I ask is that CCP please review and comment that with arguments. And no “oops, we did it again” :slight_smile:

I don’t know, but it’s one easy possibility to make it solo gankable.

Sure, but we can’t balance tank around people antitanking their ships… otherwise antitank is norm and any tanky fit is overtanked.

First who want talk with witch character thats his call not yours ,second the argument that DST is depended on cloack and MWD and must use that again is BS from some body is not hauler ,like other say they use that but their tank and their information a bout gankers and hostile territory and … all play a role and their tank was their defence ,ofc from some body in EVE going after MTU must expect that argument :smiley:
I dont believe CCCP for this argument that they wanted to reduce only capital ship EHP ,they could easly only reduce capital ship resistance and not all ships

The only proper response to having your playstyle substantially nerfed is to nerf CCP’s bottom line, at which point the accountants will inform the investors who will then nerf some devs’ jobs, thus completing the circle of nerfs.

If adapting to yet another ill-conceived nerf to your playstyle has really killed the fun for you, then stop paying for EVE. Don’t spend real money on the game. Don’t spend ISK on PLEX. Hell, don’t even undock. Those PCU numbers won’t mean a thing if it’s a bunch of alphas sitting in stations playing Chatbox Online.

They never said this?
They did state that they want to increase amount of destruction happening in EvE.

No, but claiming something is impossible or has more than it’s base EHP regardless of fit is also not a good look.

Thats true ,most players that pay real money are casual players that spend one or two hours in day,and most casual players are high sec players (industralist,minners,haulers,mission runners ,…) and with this patch they killed lots of fun for those players

Faction battleship - resists dropped less than 2%, EHP increased more than 5k

How about an inventory tax per m^3?

So you are willing to pay a tax on your ships and assets per M3, how much tax would you recommend and how often would you like to pay it. I am not sure that would go down well with the majority of players.

I’ve been subbing 3 acct’s for 11, 10 and 9 yrs now. I already pay a tax.

In all locations make it progressive, i.e., a certain M^3 is free, then after that there’s a incremental application. CCP decides what the free amount is and at what point the increments will start, as they have access to that data. In Null, do it like the market and split the tax revenue between the SCC and the station owner.

I think and ideal outcome is if those who have the %5 of stuff by M^3 in the game pay over %50 of the tax, especially if that means more of the stockpiles in Jita 4-4 are put on the market.

Yes, it will hurt everyone, but it will hurt hoarders with stacks of 1000 dreads more than ‘normal’ players and continue to hurt them until stockpiles are reduced to a new optimal level.

Oh, and before you tell me that people will just create bank toons, limit the M^3 an alpha can store, make Omega worth something again.

Your a 2016 player, that wont help. You have no idea what players will go through to break the game. :wink:

If it is a a tax, it is tax that scales to usage, though unlike others you could cut it by just having one account. Running more than one account does not make anyone special, or more deserving, if anything the common theme on all threads is universal distain for the ‘Omg CCP nerf, I unsub eleventy billion accounts, grrr, grrr’ crowd.

Are you alpha or omega if I may ask?

You are == You’re != Your != Ya’ll

This is an alt I created after my first account’s corporation was wardeced into inactivity. Again like asset hoarding, war declarations was a minority of the players causing a majority of the problems, yielding disproportionate control.

Now I just run incursions from time to time, Maybe one day I will come back to null, but it won’t be while supers are standard doctrine and it won’t be while the artificial conflicts of the blue doughnut exists.
