Think CCP should just make supercarriers its own ship type(ship price inbetween dread price and mothership price) which can use Fighter Bombers and cant use fighters. Motherships can use Fighter bombers but they take the place of 2 fighters. Carriers stay the same.

THANKS A LOT CCP

YOU HAVE FINALLY GIVEN ME THE MOTIVATION TO GET RID OF THIS LIFE DRAIN CALLED EVE \0/


I have worked painfully hard past few months to make billions of isk and bought

Parking Char + Mods + Slaves + (oh yes!) a Nyx

and also paid top $ (grand total of around 30 bil) for all that, just to get kicked in the crotch.

Anyways, this aint an emo-rage quit scenario, I have always thought about quitting EVE and getting back to RL (im sure like many of you) but never got around to doing it. BUT....this...this is the final nail and if it goes thru I'm sure in the end I won't regret it

Hey,

The changes on Singularity now, are intentional. The drone control units are however broken at the moment, and are being fixed.

Super carrier build cost, reduced by 40%. Estimated build cost around 5-6bn.

What we want to create is an anti-capital ship/role, which is more effective than dreadnaughts against moving targets. They can currently reach 7200 DPS (9000 DPS on the Nyx), provided they are fitted for damage and are being supported by fellow pilots. To put this into perspective, the old motherships used to deal 2000 DPS, 2500 DPS (3125 DPS on the Nyx) with drone control units, additionally they've received a huge hit-point boost

The main advantages everyone seems to be overlooking is that Super carriers don't need to commit to a battle like Dreadnaughts nor do they have to be stationary while dealing damage, and of course the fact that they're immune to Electronic Warfare.

By fitting drone control units, pilots are increasing their damage potential greatly while sacrificing survivability. It becomes a hard choice, but being capital ships, they should reach their maximum potential when working together as a team.

Once upon a time, there was a MMO developer named CCP. It was a small organization, who had the incredible vision to make one of the most epic sandbox games in the world. In fact, you could say that it is the most in depth game ever created, and you'd be right. But something began to go wrong, because the senior CCP members with this vision slowly started to filter out, and the newbies began to run the company. Over time, the vision changed, and here we are today, playing a game run by a massive company for profit rather than fun. I wish we still had competent devs in charge of balancing my EvE, but maybe they're on CCP's new A project, DUST, a new console title. I can only hope that DUST turns out to be epic, and that epicness justifies giving my EvE the Bteam devs.

To be more specific CCP, you need to fire some people. Balance is not about changing things around till they work, it's not about creating new ship classes to cover your mistakes, it's about looking at each ship individually, with regard to the way the game is played, then looking forward to the future, and trying to give us a balance of stats. There was once a time when you were in contact with the people who really played this game, and balanced it based on what they said. Now that's gone. CCP and EvE are 2 separate communities now, and I don't think there's any going back. You'd have to get ingame with your dev characters and fly around talking to people or something. Ya, no chance of that.

Once, you would have fixed your existing stuff before trying to create new stuff. Now, you either leave the existing broken stuff alone in favor of new shiny stuff, or you replace the broken stuff with new shiny stuff. You need a wakeup call, and I think that this patch may be it for you. The problem is, by the time most game developers finally come around and realize that they've well and truly ****ed their game over, it's too late.

If this goes through, I'll prolly be retiring. Not because I own a mothership, but because every single patch in the past 2-3 years has been about adding new stuff to attract more players. You've not tried to keep your existing ones. Fix the game for us loyal customers, or good luck getting new people to play. It's not that this 1 nerf is the end of the game. It's the unending stream of incompetence we see from you CCP that makes us want to find something else.

This is an excellent post and sums up my feelings pretty effectively.
