btw everyone noticed that missiles now intercept you instead of following you. I tested this yestereday when I did a lvl 3 mission in my Breacher. This is somewhat limited. The Guristas Ascriber fired heavy missiles at me. I only had a 10mn AB so I didnt go that fast. But the missiles intercepted me at a point but still it ended up far behind me so it wasnt even close to hit me yet. So I would say the missiles isnt intercepting you, they just take a shortcut.
Missiles still dont hit anythng that goes faster than it.

Thats not supprising really 
They hit more often close up as they 'track' the target quicker than he can orbit, i.e. fire in front of the target so he gets it in the face

Time to train for a Raven, I guess 
No more need for me to fit small weapons to kill the NPC inties, and nominal range from 0 to 90km.
This change in itself is needed, but only if there's some nerfing as well. Right now hte balance lean more and more in favor of missile users.
Others missile changes have better come soon, or everyone who want a buy a BS for both PVP or NPC hunting will fly a caldari ship.
Why the hell everyones ignoring Shadowsword's post? Missile boats are one of the best in PvP and now what Shadowsword said about PvE its so true but nooo you lots gona play dumb and just ignore it! As he said with missiles you dont need to worry about fitting small guns to hit frigs, interceptors you dont need to worry about optimal range so you can hit something with full damage...well we might all start training for Caldari ships then.

I don't think you know what you're talking about. Battleships of all races are pretty darn useful
Apoc tanking
geddon damage
raven missle boat
scorp EW and pretty good damage with good skills
Megathron - close range damage
dominix - never messed with this much
typhoon and tempest. YEah damage. Projectile weapons pwn
Not to mention all the setups that haven't even been discovered yet. I think all the battleships are all pretty useful. I think CCP did a good job of balancing them. Unless you're completely oblivious to "show info" you'd know that each of these has added bonuses to certain areas and do have a good use in eve. The trick is to capitalize on the race bonuses. If you can do that you have one hell of a setup.

STFU will you , Ive been selling Cruise and Torp at pre patch prices to all the noobs out there and making a packet, now you go and ruin it 
Raven for the win though
So HMV consider Andy Williams and Dean Martin to be "easy listening" do they? Tell that to my mate Dave, he's been deaf for 20 years.
