Chaos Era Continues - Cyno Update

Cloaked FC while ratting or doing events, not everyone has alts that can run a cloaked FC.

Yeah they just kill the only thing that was diferent of the other games, the massive battles. But you are just in time for move out of this shity game now

Back to Factorio … Other Games are nice

THANK YOU CCP!
Finally we can end this cynobullshit when every t1 BC/BS/CS cynoed by rorq/carriers every ■■■■■■■ day.
THANK YOU I CAN NOW SOLO ROAM WITH COMMAND SHIP! And can dont be paranoid about cyno while roam at solo battleships.
For god sake! Bless you CCP!

One man’s desert on the sea is another man’s tropical paradise.

(Why is a desert on the sea stupid?)

And you thought Citadel spam was bad before - with jump freighters now going to covert.

No Cyno in on overview
Jammers have no effect
Offensive footholds everywhere with no ability to catch them in first 15 minutes.

Not everyone needs their own alt. You need, at most, one guy that fly a force recon per system as a designated cyno lighter.

If you think people with umbrella coverage aren’t already working out how they’ll reorganize to accommodate this, you don’t learn very quickly.

I forgot to add what are you guys doing with titan jumps? with they still have a cyno? if not will you let a recon or covert have the option to take the role of jumping non covert ships like the titan does now.

of course umbrella groups are already figuring this out, but make no mistake that this is some very poorly thought out bs by ccp that we are now being forced to figure out

Seems the changes may be more about gouging £$ out of players rather than any effective change to mechanics - old cyno alts will get trained up to new cyno alts, and little would really have changed - apart from a lot of spent $£…

And increasing the bar for newer players to be able to compete without spending ÂŁ$

I didn’t say it was a brilliant change. I said it isn’t going to ruin umbrellas the way some people are saying it will.

And for the next bout of chaos, an Ibis will be able to 1 shot a Titan. Elephant and mouse situation.

Remove the Cynos from the game replace them with bookmarks on which the capitals can jump add a timer to slow them down to calculate the jump trajectory in which they would be stuck this will open them for attacks and make it harder to escape the battlefield if no support is available.

Devs pls consider this desing

This would mean that Rorqual pilots are borked, seeing as the Rorqual can only fit mining ships/industrials in their ship hangar (and none of them can light a cyno).

I was on your side on every other change you made, but this is just stupidly wrong, i hope you guys rethink this because this is a major f up

FCs as a result might be even more averse from jumping capitals an

That’s not what will happen. What will happen is the little guy, the independant player, the small corp, the guy who just needs to move his Cap from A to B will be harmed, while the major Alliances and Coalitions won’t suffer in the slightest because they’ll just SRP any lost Recon. It’s typical CCP short sightedness and what comes of living in an echo chamber.

Can you at least increase insurance payouts for capitals/supers to be closer to build cost.
