If you do not have one, please log back out and don't come back until you have.
Best regards, The Eve Community.
Exactly.
Dominion made Titans the new battleships, everything else followed suit.

Originally by: Kazuo Ishiguro If it's really this bad, how about introducing a new tier of cyno (alongside black ops and standard), require use of it for supercaps, and restricting it to 0.0?
I dont think that is a half bad idea. CCP needs to pay some attention to low sec. Something I said to Liang before is that it seem like all the power blocks are bluing each other and have no targets to shoot anymore except in low sec.
Now I have not been keeping up on whats going on with the North VS South war, but for the sake of low sec I really hope the South wins. *side note if anyone on the south side of the war could use another dread pilot, send me an Evemail.

I really don't think Liang is so mad about s.carriers as the cliche "cry more" troll comment.
Honestly the only time s.carriers have been an issue for us is when we were being jerks on a station. We were in our capitals camping in a buch of Russian mission runners when their blues brought in an Abaddon fit with your -predictable- 7 turrets, along side of a Rooks & Kings covert ops sitting off the station we were camping. We decided to stand down so we didn't lose our caps to a super-blob. The end (never saw the s.carriers we knew were there).
As for the little fish big fish comment; BS is the big fish of high sec. S.carriers are the big fish of 0.0 and low sec - leaving no middle ground for carriers and dreads to be the big fish, which in my opinion they should be in low sec.

Originally by: MADDOGzors News flash: Life isn't fair and neither is eve
Actually Eve is pretty fair compared to life. It is a game, with game design, and game rules.
People can argue all the points they want about who caught what fail fit super carrier where, but people doing stupid things doesn't justify game mechanics not flowing together properly. Low sec is something that is caught in a bind of mechanics when it comes to super carriers. Super carriers by nature (see sov restrictions on construction) were not designed to be low sec toys.
Super carrier pilots in low sec are the ones who are currently being saved by CCP. I'm sure the ones being so vocal here are the ones who's stomach goes into a knot thinking of all the times they would have lost their SC had an interceptor been able to tackle them in low sec.
Oh and also:

Originally by: Deja Thoris I fail to see how a restriction on where you can build it flows through to where you can use it?
No, now you are taking what I said out of context. Let me see if I can do a better job at getting my point across:
SC are fine being allowed in low sec empire space. The concept of them and design of them was 100% based around null sec and major alliances (again see construction restrictions). SC mechanics in low sec were a complete afterthought. Being that they are designed for major alliance warfare, bringing them into low sec is forcing low sec players into game play that many low sec players were attempting to avoid.
In short, the more super carriers that show up in low sec, the more it forces low sec to behave like null sec - which removes a variety of game play styles in Eve. I believe that removing the ewar immunity super capitals have in low sec would dampen that effect greatly.

This ol thread eh. Since I last posted on this topic, I have seen a huge increase of SC activity in low sec.
Honestly it wouldn't be so bad if the scripted HIC could have logistics run on it. It is far too easy for a prepared and competent and calm SC pilot to just nute any HIC's on the field (or even better just kill them) and leave at their own convenience. For how many of them are now in low sec, not very many are dieing, that should speak for itself.
Still I think there should be some middle ground between where the BS is king (high sec) and where super capitals should be king (null sec) for capitals to be king. That is just my opinion.
