Originally by: Johho Bulon It sounds like all downside and no upside once again.
Nos nerf? why not cap charge boost? make all cap charges smaller or allow some form of cap armouring with a new module? Or any one of the sensible suggestions already put forward?
But more importantly why is it always a nerf? Why always go this retrograde way about doing things? In RL if a nation develops a powerful weapon then counters are made by opposing forces, things that gradually diminish the power of the opposing weapon system, and so you get a cylce of development. In our RL history the British empire persuaded the world to nerf its battleships in 1921, except the Japanese decided to ignore this and build titanic battleships that left everyone far behind in terms of firepower, only the coming of age of carriers redressed the balance.
I understand the game balancing argument, but tbh it doesn't wash and feels totally artificial, instead of constant retrograde nerfing, why not go the evolutionary way? Produce modules that counteract overpowered game mechanics by giving power to the players to decide how to play. Because tbh as a relatively new player I look at all these great toys and instead of giving me more you are simply stealing the ones I already have and that sucks. And it isn't the nos thing in particular, I have looked back through the forums reading about nerf after nerf after nerf.
A perfect balance is not only not possible it isn't desirable, let nos be king today and let nos resists or maybe nos feedbacks be king in three months. But please stop this constant levelling because to be frank it is depressing and backwards and instead of us all looking forward to the delights a new patch brings we all dread to think that our particular specialization will be next to become teh suxxor.
And no I'm not going to threaten to quit or other silly things infact I just got a year long sub, evolve or die someone said I'll evolve, and I quite like neuts anyhow but for god sake please inspire us instead of the seemingly constant downgrading of anything that works.
I mean I can't help but pity the ammar guys who suddenly discover that their ship they have trained months to use well is gonna lose a fair chunk of pg with no upside and this is advertised as an 'interesting change' interesting as in time to sell your Amarr char and become Caldari maybe?
Anyhow I've gone on far to long.
Johho.
You've hit the nail right on the head, and smashed it right through the plank of wood that is the Dev Teams idea Block at times.
Sorry Devs, but this needs some serious contemplation. Customs has your gear - use this time to change the nos nerf to a nos FIX.
Thanks.

IMO, if you're gonna do this to NOS...you have to give the curse/pilg a new tank then, because in their current setup Nosing their opponents out of cap WAS their tank. ñ~Baynex |

Originally by: Mortuus Oh noes, I can no play without Nos, I have no skills.
Or...Wait, none of my ships use nos. Sweet, so I don't have to worry about it so much. Good no more "hmmm, that ships probably has nos, I don't use them, time to move along and leave it alone" decisions.
All you noobs who needed nos on your ships to live are fresh meat.
Yeah, tell that to people who pilot ships like the pilgrim and curse, who used it not as a defensive device, but as a weapon. How would you like it if we nerfed all gunnery by making it unable to deal damage to structure. ñ~Baynex |
