Devblog: Spring Balance Update Incoming!

had to stack like 3 of them and dont worry csm will nerf that too

That’s different now, and I think the vast majority of players agree that this is a good thing.

Why don’t we just ban everybody except you from doing it? That way you don’t have to worry about any competition. Should I suggest that to CCP?

If your goal is to drive long-term players out of the game, I think this patch will be a big success. Congratulations!

Once again, after players work (and often spend) long and hard to achieve a high-level of effectiveness, CCP decides to nerf those touch-points. The Rorqual and fighter changes in this patch look like they will be particularly painful.

This will also give newer players less to shoot for in the long run, thereby reducing load on the CCP servers. Again, if that’s your goal, congrats!

I’m assuming turning down profitable isk faucets is one of the goals. Just when I start to get comfortable in the game after the last set of painful nerfs, it happens yet again. Personally, I just created two new alts, including paying real money into them, and won’t be funding them any further. When my main is no longer able to pay for itself, it, too, will be retired.

I’ll eat my hat if they reduce the cost of excavs. They want more risk vs reward.

That with the fighter nerf is going to really hurt ratting.

On the contrary. From what I’ve mostly seen so far, we look to have re-subs incoming thanks partially due to these changes.

That is funny, really, made me laugh a bit, but in this way every single person is affected in the same manner, not just some. By decreasing spawns you directly targeted large alliances and people who tend to bunch up together, by nerfing ships and making them easier to kill, you target the smaller alliances by not being able to proper defend themselves. By nerfing bounties everyone everywhere is affected.

Amen.

Nah, if you give up 3 midslots for 1 high on your carrier/super to get half the current scan res you deserve it.

why not do what i said ?
forget about the nerf of NSA
instead BLOCK the limit of npc bounties per 30 day period on each account!
botters will be punished and normal players will be unhurt problem solved.
how come you did not suggest that ?

It is too hard to keep up with this thread. Can we please split up the threads by category next time?
Cap changes; sub cap changes; mining and Rorqual changes.

Gila nerf not enough. Plz zap a 5th off of its drone bay too.

Delve routinely mines more than all of highsec combined.

Still better than removing pvp viability from ships to change the way people pve with them.
