T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.20 11:48:00 - [1] They have done a u-turn on the moms now.... which ironicaly has nerfed them more than they would have been.... Moms will be just as useless if they dont have the armour/shield buff and the fighter bombers... Dreads are being buffed up for close range, which gives mom pilots even less reason to use their motherships! Come on CCP, grow some balls and release the mom patch, dont let the moaners stop you... The game will be MORE balanced with the mom patch.
T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.20 12:55:00 - [2] CCP... REPLACE NOZH WITH ME, I HAVE SENT MY APPLICATION TO YOU. I WILL FIX THIS AND GAIN THE TRUST OF THE COMMUNITY BY BEFRIENDING CCP ABATHUR AND REINSTATING HIS PREVIOUS EXCELLENT WORK!!!
T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.20 13:19:00 - [3] Originally by: Joe Goon Dear CCP, You'd probably have a lot more constructive posts if some of you guys would actually reply in this thread and move the discussion forward. It'd probably take less time than deleting the "unconstructive" ones. This is called a "dialog" and requires more than one party. If you don't actually want to discuss what you post in your blogs, why do you even bother opening threads about them? At the very least a post from Nozh (OK, a new blog would be better because it really would be like marching him out into a firing squad right now) detailing exactly what he thought was wrong with Abathur's implementation and needed fixing in the first place. This would give us a basis to further the discussion. Please take that on board. Now I'm going to wait an hour or so, and when I realise that I'm writing reasonably and calmly for an audience that doesn't exist, I'm going to come back to this thread and do the posting equivalent of taking a gigantic **** on the floor. Thanks for reading, CCP. I hope. THIS
T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.20 13:29:00 - [4] Dreads Own Moms If Nozh Isnt Overturned Now
T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.20 13:46:00 - [5] Edited by: T''Karr on 20/11/2009 13:47:21 CCP... when are you going to start replying to us, its making us more frustrated. This complete U-Turn is starting to cause a lot of unrest and the community are getting sick of their posts being deleted just because they are "passionate" should we say... If we start getting responses then we will start getting more constructive if we can actually move this forward. At the end of the day, 95% of people on this thread want the Abathur changes.... They were amazing and kept the faith in CCP creating amazing expansions..... If Nozh's ideas are put through then cap warfare will be worsened. Motherships will have longer to wait for a ship that they can actually use. And the community will lose faith in what we all hoped would be the best expansion to date... good luck trying to rectify this "mistake" and satisfying the community. But you have to overturn this change... its just not acceptable, the manner it was imposed and the way that it was delivered to us.
T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.20 17:01:00 - [6] At the end of the day, we dont like what you are proposing Nozh... we prefered Abathurs, and we tested it, and we liked it. We had a lot of fun with it. And we all wished this fun would finally be introduced full time to the game. Now you have scrapped it all and have decided to introduce some stupid ideas, with some equally stupid grpahs. The community dont like what you are proposing. Put Abathurs ideas back into motion and lets get the best expansion to date FINISHED AND DONE WITH ABATHURS IDEAS.
T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.20 17:56:00 - [7] Edited by: T''Karr on 20/11/2009 17:57:05 CSM HAVE TO STEP IN NOW. THEY WILL BE OUR VOICE...! Originally by: CCP Nozh "Titans" As stated in the blog, Titans primary role should not be direct damage. We still feel like they need more defined roles, this will be worked on along with proper Mothership changes. Originally by: Tappits When you say ôWEö Dont you realy mean ôMEö maybe you should read up on other DEVS work Originally by: CCP Abathur Titans The most dramatic change to Titans will be the removal of the current area of effect, grid smashing, lag generating, fun killing, fleet destroying super weapon. It's gone, folks! In its place will be the first of what we hope to be a new line of mutually exclusive super weapons, usable only by Titans. The first of these will debut in Dominion and will keep the names of their grid-wide predecessors but will now focus their destructive energies upon single targets. (Insert Admiral Ackbar quotes as you please!) There is nothing fancy about this. You will have to warp your titan on grid and actually target an enemy ship to ruin his day. You won't be killing other supercapitals in one shot, but very little else is going to survive. The weapon has drawbacks that are designed to prevent the Doomsday drive-bys of the present, but you'll find a couple more changes which might encourage you to stick around a bit longer than before. First up is that the current weapon bonuses on Titans will get just a tiny bit of an enhancement so that the turret locators actually might get used. This damage will vary with fittings, just as with any other ship, but will certainly enable a Titan to make its presence felt if the pilot so chooses. Second, to ensure that you don't instantly melt and can survive more than a minute on the modern EVE capital battlefield, we will be giving Titans a respectable hit point increase. This will not render Titans invulnerable to assault, but it should allow allied forces time to properly assist them after someone says, "Hey, watch this!" on voice comms and gets in trouble. The future of this ship class is not set in stone and as EVE continues to evolve they may find even more roles to play. For now, we consider these changes to be a step forward in bringing Titans closer to being an actual ship instead of the giant nano-smart bombs they have become. However, Titans won't be alone in dealing with the capital fleets of EVE...

Quote: The Mittani on 20/11/2009 16:41:57 You have not addressed the issues of the community at all. For weeks, the Abathur version of motherships was tested; feedback was given from players and listened to by the devs. Broad consensus was achieved. You have not provided a single rationale for abandoning the efforts of hundreds of players working in concert with Abathur and the other devs on the supercapital reform project. Why is this being done? Why are you even here? Where is your credibility? You offer us 'fixes' for problems which do not exist. The Abathur version of the supercapitals was the only one that was created with the input and feedback of players. That is what should be reverted to, and you remove yourself from the capital dev portfolio entirely.
T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.20 19:11:00 - [9] I just want to put in a slightly more constructive post than i have done befor... I dont think its right telling Nozh to quit his job, and for CCP to sack him etc... he's just a normal person doing his job. However, the community are upset because we were all happy and possibly excited by the capital changes that were coming to Dominion, and we had all tested them out and helped develop it with Abathur in charge... And then it seems, out of knowhere this all got scrapped and dumped away with no explanation and by a completly new person. Nothing personal should be said towards Nozh in all fairness, this is a game afterall... But lets hope for the sake of the expansion that all the hard work and feedback that was put into Abathurs work is reinstated and will be implemented on patch day.... Im off to Nandos and then the Cinema (IRL).... HAVE A GOOD EVENING !
T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.21 00:20:00 - [10] we arnt going to be happy unless the moms. nag. cit torps are sorted. CCP we reely dont care about if the patch comes out Dec 1st....... just dont make us wait another 6 months PLEASE. Just take your time, finish the MOMs, STOP NERFING THE NAG, and bring out a great expansion, we dont care about deadlines. Just get it done, harden the fridge up.

T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.21 01:46:00 - [11] CCP Hammer: we dont want an explanation for the Nag being nerfed again, and the Moms being nerfed (Because that is what happening... buffering the titan so it can close-to instapop a mom, and making dreads more effective from close range. thats not what a Mom pilot wants to hear...). All we want is the SENSIBLE changes to be made, we dont want to go backwards, we want the Nag to stay inline with the other dreads, and we want Moms to be credible useable ships in cap fights. You were closer than you have ever been with Abathurs ideas on the moms and the patches you rolled out on Sisi, they were great, and we loved them! You claim they will be overpowered, but give those poor mom pilots SOMETHING (they spend a lot of isk on useless ships) because at the moment they are still sitting in pointless unusable ships . The Dev blogs are so contradictory and the fan fest videos contradict everything in the latest dev blog... We dont need an explanation, we just need thoughtfull sensible action... Lets go back to Abathurs ideas. p.s. I dont even fly capitals or have the skills.... its just complete common sense.
T'Karr Minmatar Quam Singulari	Posted - 2009.11.30 00:42:00 - [12] Thanks CCP for replying to us and explaining why we were all ignored in the latest patch notes... I play Football Manager Live, and Si completly ****ed up a few days and alienated their players by telling them they were resetting the servers, loosing all players and skill points... There was (and still is) a massive threadnaught (nearly as big as this one) and their dev team responded to almost EVERYONES questions.... Not just 2 or 3 responses from the Dev team... literaly a response to every question that was bought up... And it looks like the Dev team are listening to the customers and are going to bring in a few ideas that were bought up, and even give out free game time and refund some people who bought yearly subscriptions.... Thanks CCP... we feel so great being ignored!

Thanks CCP... we feel so great being ignored! If you feel that Mom changes being deferred until after Dominion launches is on the same level as the entire game being reset back to zero, you have bigger issues than can be addressed in this thread. Seek help now! So you didnt read or understand my post properly then... your fault not mine.
