i am using offgrid links ... mostly cheap BC or CS with skirmish mindlink and maxed skills on my alt. Got caught 5 times in last 7 months (mostly because I was concentrating on FCing ;) ).
Our Loki boosters got caught once or twice .... however they cost about ten times more then my drakes or canes.
So I dont see the problem here. Problem it is for null blobers, because they dont like to be harrashed by smaller gangs buzzing around them with boosted speed and picking weak and careless (I like it this way) .... so again CCP is saying : "We dont care about mid/small scale pvp we want blobsters - because" .... well there has to be some compensation behind this ;)

well mr.Ytter is probably the biggest catastrophe which happened to EVE in last 3 years ... all his proposals and changes caused either economical or game disballance (and was usually fixed by quick/fastforward/turbo breaking patches), I really hope he will not stick his bloody nose into direct gameplay things. And I also hope he will be moved to some place of EVE where they need his extraordinary skills and intelligence more .... like industrial sector or salvaging (you know that part of game which also needs some fixing and changes).

That would have the effect of letting you run booster t3s alongside your blops gangs AND it would make two entirely different sets of forum whiners cry epic tears and maybe even ragequit.
Even better, have each booster t3 stack its bonuses, even if they're the same skill/module! that way whoever can afford the most booster alts wins! CCP will love it.
exactly ROFL .... return of the nanoage .... 12kms vagas or 20km drams ..... pvp without boosters will be impossible (so everyone will get the alt) . first step of the fight will be to spread around the grid and try to decloak the booster.

Just because a broken mechanic helps people to fight against unfavourable odds doesn't mean it should stick around.
The correct way to go about it is to remove the broken mechanic and then look at what could be done to make sure small gangs remain viable.
u like blobs? probably yes.
point is that boosting on grid is ok if you fight lets say 3-4 (they will not kill booster fast enough), however if you kite 30-60 man blob on grid booster will be dead in seconds + blob will have its own boosting pretty safe. So yes OGB is quite ok if you fix the crazy numbers T3s giving you. Option is that boosting modules can increase your sig radius (of the booster) so they will be easier to probe.
But I must repeat my thesis, that OGB cry havoc has source in blobbears who dont want to be annoyed by smaller gangs (which is probably the most fun of EVE, when you can show the blob middlefinger and try to pick weak and stupid from the blob).
I SAY DONT LISTEN TO THE BLOB, LISTEN TO THE PILOTS! |
