Which still doesn’t answer the questions CCP has refused to answer for 2 weeks now:
What problem does CCP intend this change to fix?
What does ‘a balanced place in the ecosystem’ look like for M structures in CCP’s opinion?
The longer they refuse to answer these questions for themselves, the more it looks like this whole ‘update’ is just ‘ok, ok, shut the hell up and stop whining that you have to do work, FCs’.
And no, this does not make M structures a replacement for POS. POS can defend themselves. POS can have multiple simultaneous gunners. POS could be repaired during the fight, and the timer kited, leading to more tactical options on both sides.
Right now, this is just ‘CCP is dumbing things down to make bloc FCs happier and shut them up already’.
