Edited by: Delphi Grendalus on 29/05/2009 22:16:31 Edited by: Delphi Grendalus on 29/05/2009 22:14:57 I just got shot for like 500dmg from a range of 15km. How am I supposed to match that when my rockets wont even go past 6km?
For too long now Minmatar have had it too easy. They are the best in PvP, their guns have THE BEST dps and volley damage and also don't take any cap AND they can do any damage type in the game. How is this fair?
With lasers I can only do two types of damage and I run out of cap in like 2 shots. With missiles it takes me so long to reload that my DPS is very low and with hybrids my range is too short and my damage is terrible because my tracking skills are very bad since I mostly use rockets.
I don't really like Minmatar and I find the idea that they shoot bullets to be very silly. In a frictionless environment everyone should use missiles and hybrids like in HOMEWORLD as standard weapons and Ion Cannons (laser turrets) should be for shooting at cap ships ONLY. Tear-stained ISK is the best kind of ISK. |

Oh rockets rockets
how I love them, you know you have made it when you have rockets 5 and are able to take down a tempest solo. I guess your skills are just not right.
Have you tried pressing
UP, DOWN, LEFT , LEFT CTRL and T
if you do this when firing them they gain 50% extra damage.
also you are better off moving at 1/4 speed.
hope this help you

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahhahahahahhahahahahahhahahah/inhale/ahahahhahahahahahahhahahaha
You, sir, are funny. You should be a stand up comedian... no, really!
Lasers have almost non-existent load times, EXTREMELY far optimal (which is where the main damage is done), don't have to reload unless switching ammo type, and their drawback for all of this is to be cap-hungry. Aww.. Comparing projectiles to lasers is laughable.
You can go cry in a corner now, since you are already crying now. Seriously... if whoever killed you did it with drones, or hybrids, or missiles, you'd cry for a nerf for those, too. Pitiful, really. We should meet up sometime so I can make you cry some more. _______________________ Once a BEE, always a BEE!

It sounds like you ventured out with a low SP Caldari character and got rocked by a decent Minmatar pilot. To further add to your dismay, wait until you encounter Scorch

Theoretically, projectile turrets would be fantastic in zero gravity. Explosive shells and such already do tremendous damage, so witht hem not having a curved tracjectory and a near ulimited flgith speed with little to zero drag, it' a great weapon to be used in deep space.
But guns don't work, I hear you cry!? Just pump oxygen ito the firing chamber, and the gun works, or build oxygen into the propellant case, or, use a different propellant!
Guns work!
Also, you proably need missile bombardment skill, that'll get your Rocket DPS higher!

uuuuh, hybrids are different from mass drivers. :P
In eve Hybrids use a canister as ammo, Railguns launch the shell directly, while particle blasters pump the plasma into a cyclotron and process the plasma into a bolt that is then fired.
projectiles use the same tech that propels their ships to propel warheads at people.
they have the lowest dps in the game

The US developed a series of weapons collectively called Gyrojets back in the 60's that used pistol-sized rocket-propelled bullets. It was mainly designed for ground combat and actually saw limited service in Vietnam but it also would have been useful in space had we ever needed to engage in some sort of James Bondian cosmonaut massacre. Whereas a conventional firearm has positive recoil which would propel the shooter backwards in space after firing, the gyrojet is recoilless and thus would not suffer that drawback.
But gravity would still play a part in bullet trajectory even in space, just not to the extent that it would on the ground. If anything the bigger ships in Eve would pull bullets into themselves, or at least into orbit around them.

Because their ship drives are able to produce 'near-infinite' amounts of electricity to drive energy based weapons.
This not only allows them to save space in their ships' design by not having to have ammo storage facilities, ammo transport facilities and ammo fitting facilities for their massive weaponry, but also affords them lower-maintenance weaponry and no risk of ammunition explosions within the ship.
The other justifications are numerous.

No. Velocity of an object in space is still dependent on whatever is causing it to move. I would argue projectiles would be silly bad in space at anything but very close range. Hitting a moving object at tens, much less hundreds, of kilometers is going to be a difficult task, even with very high velocity (for projectiles).

Either put down that pipe or share it with the rest of us. Yikes, where to begin with this nonsense....I know this is probably a troll post, but here goes just for the hell of it:
- Minmatar have it too easy you say? Yeah sure, because with the stupid split weapons systems and split bonuses on our ships we have to train 2 or sometimes 3 different weapons in order to get the full damage potential from our ships. Ever hear of a little ship called Typhoon? Since you obviously haven't, please go ask an adult and have them explain it to you.
- Most of our weapons operate in falloff which if you've never tried I suggest you do sometime. It's an interesting exercise in concentration fighting in falloff as the weapons have a very narrow range in which they do decent damage. The "sweet spot" is pretty damned small, unlike your point and pwn lasers.
- As for high dps; nope. Not even close. Projectiles have the worst dps in the game right now. Back in the day projectiles had ungodly alpha, but that went out the window a while ago with the HP buff to all ships and CCP's failure to fix the projectile damage formula to take that into account. They also need to be reloaded and it's far, far worse with large artillery. Some of the BC and BS sized arties only hold 13 rounds which means you're constantly reloading, which makes for horrid dps. Let's see now, how often do lasers need a reload?
- If projectiles were so amazing maybe there wouldn't be pages upon pages of people asking for CCP to take a look at re-balancing them. In a recent poll of players in the Game Development forum some of the top issues players asked CCP to address were projectiles.
While it's true that projectiles use no cap and can change damage types at any time, that's a poor trade-off for all the drawbacks. Now back underneath the nearest bridge with you please.

Quote: Watch any Sci-FI, those two weapons ALWAYS cause more damage then bullets. Why do you think they use phasers in Star Trek and turbolasers in Star Wars?
Because their ship drives are able to produce 'near-infinite' amounts of electricity to drive energy based weapons.
This not only allows them to save space in their ships' design by not having to have ammo storage facilities, ammo transport facilities and ammo fitting facilities for their massive weaponry, but also affords them lower-maintenance weaponry and no risk of ammunition explosions within the ship.
The other justifications are numerous.

Edited by: Rudy Gnarl on 30/05/2009 19:54:06 First of all this thread is pretty hilariuos, really though . . . lol.
Okay, umm, I kind of like the storyline of the Minmatar and the fact that they use projectile weapons. Actually in space it makes more sense than here on earth - less concern for effects of gravity on bullets and no wind resistance. I think it's pretty cool actually - could you imagine watching a giant gun go off in space and hearing no sound from it . . . pretty f***ing dope! Watching the bullet not wizz through space . . . I love it!
lol . . . --- Am I being targeted, wait, ahh, they're all red now! Why won't it warp, it's not responding. Okay warp to zero. Damn it my pod too. F*****g lag! [lesson learned: log for lag] |

Good at what? Making troll threads that people can come in to point and laught at you? Mate the whole reason for a troll thread is to make the replyers look like idiots not the op.

Is it?
Although there are a fair number of serious replies to what is obvious a troll post I do this because it entertains me. As for if anyone else gains any enjoyment from it, I really couldn't careless.
If you do, great. If you don't I'm still gonna enjoy the fruits of my labour regardless. Sorry little ones but you are all here to please me, not the other way around.

For too long now Minmatar have had it too easy. They are the best in PvP, their guns have THE BEST dps and volley damage and also don't take any cap AND they can do any damage type in the game. How is this fair?
Im just a rookie but even me know: Rockets and Assault Missiles are made for short range combat and in such a range they almost never miss theyr target while a bullet can miss a lot. If you cant keep that range your ship is simply to slow. In that term you need long range missiles, they can fly up to like 100 KM, which is unmatched by any other weapon in the EVE universe. On top of that, missile boats such as the Golem are usualy great at PVE but worse at PVP. If you PVP with, its a serious disadvantage but they own any mission.
And Projectile are nowhere being superior. I cant even go through a Assault Ships defense in 2 min, using a bullet spiked Hurricane. Its mainly about skills on how much damage you deal with. When you got bad skills and only T1 weapons there is no way you can damage properly, i have to run aswell, with or without bullets.

CCP made the rate of fire a lot more delayed than the other races guns. So they're not op in anyway. Just get better skills.

Oooh KK.. I get it now. You enjoy when people point and laught at you. Hey its ok. A big world like eve has moar than enough room for people with a masochistic streak. Some might say we welcome the personality type here with open arms.(wrapped in barbwire of course. ^^)

Because they take forever to reload and typically hit a lower DPS, which is more important than alpha-strike (volley) in most combat situations.
Telling CCP to base things on "a real life sci-fi moive I saw" is pretty insulting to the amount of time that CCP put into nerfing stuffs so its kinda ballanced ;)

Yes and no. People aren't really laughing at ME because I don't really think projectiles are over-powered (I rarely enter combat in EVE anyway) they are laughing at a trollpost made by a troll "character". In many ways it would be like getting offended because people find a comedy character that you created who constantly fails at things funny.
I mostly make these posts because I actually make myself laugh reading back the original post to myself and I also know that there really are people who think this way IRL. I guess you could say I am attempting to become a forum entertainer/comedian only the joke is not only what I am saying but also how silly the reactions are. I'm kinda like the Ali G of trolling (or at least, try to be).
