Greetings,
My name is Mr Hyde, and I am pleased to announce my candidacy for CSM XI.
ABOUT ME
I have been playing EVE since 2005 and for the better part of those 10 years.
Over this time I have dabbled in many aspects of the game, but have always had an underlying focus and passion for PVP. My corporation history has been long and varied, and I have flown with notable groups from INFOD in the ancient past, to Rooks & Kings, to Black Legion, and more recently joined Pandemic Legion. I have always maintained friendships with players from my long time in this game, regardless of corp/alliance or politics.
Although my main focus in the game for the past year or so has been Solo PVP, I have had extensive PVP experience in many other forms of combat in everything from Triage/Logistics to Dreads to Subcaps.
I produce Solo PVP videos and streams for my Youtube and Twitch channels, which I try to make entertaining and educational. One of my favorite aspects of this is helping players (new and old) with solo/small gang pvp, whether that means chatting about strategy/tactics in my in-game channel, or helping players with fittings by evemail. I have found it to be a really rewarding experience, both in improving my own piloting, as well as connecting with the community.
I have never considered running for CSM before, but feel that the game is at important stage in its continued development. If CCP still sees value in consulting with a group like the CSM, I would be honored to participate and lend my experience to the process.
I believe my long experience in the game, gives me a unique perspective as a candidate, since I have seen the long evolution of EVE over my 10+ years playing and know what works and what doesn't.
BRIEF CANDIDACY SUMMARY
I want to first and foremost serve as a consultant for CCP on the issues they wish to relieve feedback on.
I will not serve as a lobbyist for any group/alliance and place the betterment of the game as my highest priority.
Although my personal opinions on balance & mechanics are varied, I always strive to balance sensibility and consistency.
Although balance is an active and ongoing process, we should try to make sure innovation does not lead to oppression.
Diversity and meaningful choices in the game are key.
PVP needs to be accessible to new players but also needs to maintain the depth necessary to challenge veterans.
CCP has a wonderful vision for the game, but oftentimes needs the help of the players in executing that vision.
Feedback and communication from and with the community, especially from active forums such as /r/EVE, is paramount to a transparent and accountable CSM.
TL;DR
I am a long-time EVE Player, active Solo-PVPer and videomaker, and hope you will give me your consideration for CSM XI.
CONTACT
Please feel free to reach me with questions/suggestions/concerns in this thread, by eve-mail, or by twitter.
Thank you,

Please be more specific about your platform. It sounds to me like what you are saying is "Balance for Balance's sake must be maintained". Do you want to change the small ship meta, as evidenced by your stated dislike of frigates? You are regularly seen flying larger ships; do you want to buff these? How so? You say also PvP should be accessible to new players; how do you intend to accomplish that? |

(1) In general, I think that finding a healthy state of balance, is always a moving target, and more of a goal to strive for, but never something we ever fully achieve.
(2) I think that the small ship meta, especially in small gang pvp, is evidence that people do not have good/enough reasons to want to fly bigger ships. Some of this has to do with the speed; people don't like spending so much longer in warp/warping compared to smaller ships. Some of this has to do with them not bringing enough to the table for the added cost/tedium. There are a few ideas I have kicking around in my head such as a "secondary-stat" buff for BS (scan res, sensor strength, cargo capacity) which are basically quality of life improvements. But balance is not done in a vacuum, and restoring a healthy "food pyramid" of ships would go a long way to giving BS more reasons to be used. Thus why I spend a lot of time flying, and encouraging others to fly BCs and BS, so people see what they can do, so that they get used more, and then have more similar sized targets out there (rinse repeat).
(3) Right now the game does not do a good job of explaining how actual pvp works in the tutorials/NPE. We rely heavily on a player joining the right "newbro" corp that will teach them what they need to know. There are plenty of resources out there these days for new players, but it all relies on them finding these external sources. I want to see a lot of the wisdom out there put in front of new players right off the bat so we can retain as many as possible. Examples? Including basic pvp fittings in the "corp fittings" of the starter NPC corps so they have something to work off of. Making starter/lvl 1 missions more like burner missions/actual pvp; less farming and more intense 1v1 scenarios that force new players to learn mechanics.

Understandable, and expected since that is the way for you to get a sense of where my head is on the issues. However, I have to say that the CSM in many ways isn't about CCP saying, "hey guys, this needs fixing, fix it", but rather "we were thinking this, what do you think".
I think that T3ds really put AFs in a terrible place, since before their introduction, AFs were pretty cost effective for what they did. Many would like to just see buffs to AFs, but I don't think letting the power creep train run in terms of increasing DPS/Tank stats is the way to go. You see this similar dynamic between HACs (except the ishtar, but that has been fixed mostly) and T3 Cruisers. The introduction of T3s really made HACs not as viable by comparison, but not bad before.
A big part of the solution will be toning T3Ds down (to more of the hecate's level of power), among other nerfs, which I believe CCP is working on with a focus group. Apart from that, we've seen a lot of willingness from CCP in coming up with unique roles and role bonuses: Intys are interdiction immune, BCs got projection bonuses. Right now AFs have: 50% reduction in MWD sig radius penalty, which honestly isnt that great. Perhaps replacing this with an EWAR resistance bonus (something CCP has mentioned is possible soon), could be cool since it would let AFs be good against all the new navy ewar frigs and EAFs.
Still highly dependent on how much T3Ds get nerfed though.

You hope for T3D nerfs. Many of us do, but besides warp/lock times, Battleships seem pretty limited in roles relative to other ship classes.
Frigates and cruisers have their own flavors of logi and EWAR. Battleships have no bonused logi boats and only Caldari/Amarr have EWAR platforms. While I'm dubious about Target Painting or Sensor Damp bonuses, taking after secondary EWAR could make some interesting ships - point range for Gallente, web range for Minmatar.
While I'm not one to pine for battleship sized logistics (hello Nestor, I didn't forget you), I just want to put it out for discussion. I see plenty of people flying Command Destroyers for the MJFG capabilities, but Battleships don't really have something to call their own. At the heart of the matter, Battleships do nothing special, and they do it slowly.
So, what are some options for making BS special? |

Hey Hyde, Hope your new home under the paymasters of PL is treating you well. Interesting choice of new corp though bud, are we trying to secure more votes having recently join / been asked to join Pandemic Legion?
Although I may not agree with your new choice of corporation (even though its of no benefit having you in anybody's corp), I will be fully supporting your application to the CSM, as having flown with you a few times in Mind Games, I think you have a good amount to offer and hope that you will remain non-bias in your decisions and direction in the future.
Also, yes i think CCP may all be frigates...... |

There are a lot of different ways to go about this, but I really prefer an approach that does not add to the power creep we have seen over the years. BS will be more popular when there is a "healthy food pyramid" of BCs and Cruisers below them. This is why I try to feature larger ships in my videos, since they are not popular and therefore no one flies them, and leads to this downward spiral.
As far as changes, on the conservative side i'd like to see a secondary stat buff on most BS (scan res, sensor strength, cargo capacity, ect). These small quality of life changes will help make flying BS feel a little bit better than it does right now.
If you want to talk more crazy, theoretical ideas...giving BS generalized weapons bonuses was an idea I was toying around with. Essentially instead of having <5% to large Projectile turret damage, you could have , <5% to Projectile turret damage>. We already see these kinds of bonuses on the Bhargest and Rattlesnake with missiles for example. This allow more flexibility in fitting for fighting smaller targets, leaving more fitting for tank/smartbombs/neuts. Its a really wild idea that I was thinking of, so take it with a serious grain of salt, but there is a lot of room for creativity here.

All the comments are TL:DR. I am curious though as to the validity of your stance on electronic warfare and drones of said nature? |

They are very tricky to balance because you don't want them to be more powerful than the base module but also be useful enough to get some play. ECM drones are contentious just because the RNG of ECM is very frustrating to play against. The rest of them suffer from stacking penalties like web drones which make them hard to use, as well as low HP. Is there a specific ewar drone you are concerned with?

It's seemed ludicrous to me, but I figured I'd get my answer straight from you on your position on ECM. |

ECM is always going to be a tricky mechanic to balance since it its RNG based and its effectiveness scales heavily the smaller the fight gets, unlike other forms of ewar (like damps) which can still be consistently effective in large fights and small fights.
In an ideal world, I would love to see caldari get a completely new ewar scheme, maybe with an anti-drone flavor, but if that is not up for discussion in terms of CCP's roadmap, I would like to see ECCM as a counter get a bit improved, since right now, even overheated ECCM Battleships can be consistently jammed by t1 frigs, for example. This could involve a numbers rebalancing, or even adding some new mechanic like ships that are jammed with an ECCM active can still target the jam source.

Just yesterday I had the pleasure of interviewing Mr Hyde for the CSM Watch coverage. The interview isn't up yet, but I can honestly say it was one of the better ones I've participated in and I think he's on my ballot now.

I'm liking this candidate. He doesn't overpromise, doesn't have irrational ideas built from a self-serving agenda, and has an excellent understanding of the mechanics of the game and so can give CCP solid feedback.
Also, points for building some great brawling fits that inspire me to build my own.

Another option might be a reduction in firing speed. Being able to drop your opponent's DPS output would be of use across the board. It could possibly be applied to upgrade modules as well, meaning that drone modules such as damage amplifiers would have their effectiveness reduced as well. It works for all levels of engagement (I think) and is much more balanced in relation to the other e-war types.

Help fix ECM mechanics and you have my vote.
Solo PVP can never be truly valid as long as there is an ECM pilot jamming you for 10mins straight with 0 breaks in-between. Please push for Diminishing returns on ECM, and if necessary for balance on all other forms of electronic warfare as well.
I can always have fun losing blingy battleships in solo PVP, but its not fun at all when you're jammed during the entire 10mins it took the blob to kill you.

Good luck with the campaign Mr Hyde. I've always enjoyed your videos and I'm sure you'll bring a interesting point of view to the table if you're elected.
On the battleship topic I've always liked the idea of ships having rigs or maybe a module for some sort of anti frigate weapons. I guess I'm thinking about how navy carriers have miniguns on them like this. Before anyone jumps on me I'm not talking about an insta blap frigate weapon but something balanced to put a battleship into perspective against much smaller ships. |

:salt:
Wouldn't it be better to actually ask a question about his platform rather than making a snide remark?
Also Hyde doesn't need 30k subs to ensure that people will vote for him. People will vote for him because his video's show that he understands the mechanics of the game and his ability on understanding the game gives him the skill to be rather good at it, which in turn makes it entertain to watch. But the vote would come from his understanding, not his ability to edit and commentate.
That's the key, Hyde understand the game.
He wouldn't be a #SWAGYOLOposter boy.

And what do you think about having the T3D's suffer a skill loss like T3 cruisers to balance them out and avoid further nerfing them as they are?
As it is, I think it takes 12 days to lvl 5 a racial skill for a T3D. About 10 with a full respective remap and just +3's. I think about 3 days for lvl 4. I do understand that someone can inject this back up, but this won't be pennies anymore at that rate and it would set anyone back from using them for everything like they do now. Go Svipul gate camps! *sarcasm*

Hyde,
Here's a question to test your mettle...
Quote:Assume for another moment that you have infinite optimal range. You notice that you have exactly a 50% chance to hit a particular target. You also know that your turrets are medium sized (i.e. signature resolution of 125m) and you have an angular tracking rate of 0.1 rad/sec. If the target has a signature radius of 125m and is at a distance of 1000 meters, what is the transverse velocity of the target?

... No, I don't think so.
It shouldn't require any tools (except for fractions).
