Originally by: FLARIUS Edited by: FLARIUS on 29/10/2007 15:04:03 actualy i can understand why ccp is doing it. after reading all the topics and threds i realize that they are right. carriers are the all powerfull ships well not all powerfull but they are in some casses do take the job out from other ships. like lets take support role. it is good in it right well there is a logistic ships for that . transport well there are transport ships and soon to come jumping freithers. i must agree on one thing that taking out drones is sily but if we say eve is looking like a real world then yeh carrier have to have some sort of escort just to engaje targets. so guys before sighning here read all the topics and try to understand what they want to do.
ie: you have never flown a carrier.. and about your real life comparison.. a modern USN supercarrier actually does not need escorts to survive all the time, nor does it need escorts to defend itself or attack others, nor to control it's fighters... You see them tiny little thingies with wings and rotors on the deck? Amazingly enough the modern supercarrier who's design dates back to the 1950's can carry around 80 aircraft of various types. ie: anti-submarine, anti-ship, anti-aircraft, PLUS it has offensive capabilities of every type in it's aircraft. AND it even has a measure of anti-missile defense onboard, PLUS it can carry transport aircraft and hell even Marine aircraft for offensive assaults on enemy shores. AND it can control every single aspect of a battle, not just it's own weapons and aircraft but others as well. Yes it IS a jack of all trades and basically a master of all, it's escorts are there for added protection.. not to control fighters etc..
So it seems in the future people got very ******** when building ships and have no idea what they are doing and built these capital ships with only the ability to control 5 drones (fighters).... yeahhh ok..
Oh wait modern carriers cannot carry other ships, you will say, well guess what no ship in real life can carry more then one smaller ship (ie frigate size max), so we'll presume in the future they can, well, I would think if they could, they would not have to unload the ******* cargo, weapons and ammo. Of course modern carriers cannot cyno jump either, so comparing everything between Eve and RL is apples to oranges.
Again if you want to make real world analogies get your facts straight first..

I'm nowhere near flying a carrier right now, but signed anyway as i don't believe in the changes.
Maybe some kind of change yes, but one so drastic? CCP, don't be silly. If you're going to swing the nerf bat, at least learn to use more delicate strokes instead of the WTFPWNLOLZ strokes you seem to love so very much.

Using a carrier's corp hanger to add ammo is at best unrealistic. Have you seem how much lag it cause? Before you even get cap booster and/or ammo in your ship, you would be popped! This nerf is completely un-workable. in combination with the fighter nerf, it render a carrier utterly useless in front line. And pretty pointless in logistic effort too.

If this change goes through... the Moros would actually be a more effective drone boat than a Thanatos. That's absolutely ridiculous.
There is no possible logical role playing reason that a carrier could only launch more than 5 fighters if she had an escort to assign them to. They have pilots.. they are not drones.. and carriers are MASSIVE... surely they can fit more than one combat air controller round the microphone at once?
I'll say it again... if you want to balance carriers.. do it by providing support ships with better anti fighter defences.. If this is a type of fighter interceptor (possibly a varient of the fighter class itself) then so be it.. Carriers are believable as they are.
And if people are concerned that carriers are ridiculously more potent than battleships because of some real world comparison.. lol, I hate to break it to you, but the battleship was obsolete the moment the aircraft carrier came of age. (Just look at what happened to the Bismark, the Musashi and the Prince of Wales.. to name just three striking examples.)

I may not fly one, but my skill progression is on that route, and I don't want to have to rely on people being online to allow me to fly my ship and defend it. The carrier is supposed to be an offensive beast, not sit back in the rear and be a healer. It is like training up to be a terror on the battlefield and fear by all, then patch and you are now a big fluffy bunny wabbit that can't fight his/her way out of a wet paper bag.

Two accounts here...
It would be very sad that a carrier one day only has his name (carrier) because it can carry 1000 drones and launch only one at a time...
What happened to the artificial intelligence of drones? Somehow CCP tripped over one of EVE's history books here - if a drone has no AI but always needs to be controlled by a ship - how could things like drone clusters come to be? -- The future begins now - in EVE we live it, in real life we create it!
