Missiles didn't get nerfed, they got balanced. Big difference. A nerf would be a reduction to their damage output. Which by the way, got INCREASED because of new skills and the potential for readily available tech II launchers. The only people whining about this are those who have been abusing the god-like powers of torpedo spam to get isk they would not otherwise be able to get with their crappy skills and experience.
The security thing was a huge whine factor, but in the end the Devs stated there were overall increases. I for one will adapt.
Highways getting dropped, was to promote RP and stimulate diverse markets. They were only added with a patch in mid-Gemini as a result of about only 3500 people playing EVE during peak times and not being able to get even simple things like cruisers or frigs was killing it for new players. Those who can adapt will end up richer as their stuff will sell for more, if they are the only ones supplying it. Those who whine and threaten to quit are usually the ones who have gotten too used to paying near-mineral price on everything right out of Yulai.
Balanced? LMAO!!!! yeah right... my interceptor its harder than my raven does... And if they were balanced, I wouldn't be traning 5 new skills just to hit like a Battleship should hit and thats before i decide to go with Tech 2 launchers. If CCP calls that balanced then my Apoc shouldn't be hitting for 600plus damage per shot.
as far as the 750k rats, yeah that hurt a bit. not too worried about it. and for the highways, after being in 0.0 5 months, lol thats not a whole lotta jumps people... try transporting 50 or 60 jumps to safe space and then lets here it...
Digi is right, it is a balance. Your interceptor doesn't hit a megathron harder than your raven will do when you try it out on another battleship, thats the problem here, you're using your raven to shoot frigates, its fine when shooting other battleships.
Also so you have to train 5 new skills just to hit like a battleship? well do you want to know how many skills it takes a gunnery based ship to hit like a battleship? its more than 5 ill tell you that.
