I return to the game after a couple years away and login and find my cyclone I have been flying for years with 5 missile hardpoints.... really? missiles? wtf are matar ships caldari now? hilarious.
then i read the odysee notes and I see ph00n is going to be a missile ship. what? what?
CCP, what are you guys smoking???
I AM MATAR, NOT A ***** MISSILE WIMP.
The jaw dropping disappointment I felt looking at the fitting screen of my cyclone... immeasurable. My eyes could not believe themselves   |

But seriously, consider what they have done to the phoon.
It's a fcking better raven than a raven. wtf does a phoon have to do w/a raven. IT'S MATAR. For people who flew phoon for years, this is like being married to a hot babe for 10 years and one day you come home from work and you are now gay married to a 200lb 5 foot tall greasy fat man.
wtf is going on. |

Atlas; CCP's decided that each race should have two major weapons lines, which vertical paths along each weapons line. The ship balancing presentation from Fanfest is something you should definitely watch on this.
Caldari are hybrid/missile; Gallente are hybrid/drone; Matari are projectile/missile; Amarr are now laser/drone.
This actually means that only Matari and Amarr have weapons that noone else has bonuses with, which I find curious but a non-issue. |

Tell us more about this interesting story.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |

Interesting, in that 'why is that guy shoving a chainsaw up his nose' kind of way, I guess.
But the phoon... it is a legendary love of many pilots. You can't just turn a phoon into a raven and not say 'wtf just happend'.
The new phoon is not a phoon at all. it's some new ship that happens to have the name of an old mighty icon of a very, very special eve ship. RIP phoon :(
But to your point, the phoon was alreayd a gun/missile ship. It already had those two weapon systems. It did not need to change to have those two weapon systems. This is what I do not understand.
And on the cyclone... I fly a cyclone as a gunboat for many years. I log in and it's not a gunboat anymore. Not even close. What is it now, a wimpy drake? that's a caldari ship. What is a cyclone now? Can anyone answer that? Is it a wannabe drake?

Fair play, but let's be real here. Cyclone and Phoon are not "brought into line". They are now a wannabe drake and better raven than a raven. I AM MATAR FOR F#CKS. |

If it's any condolence, the Navy Typhoon is planned to stay like the old Typhoon, with maybe even +10 bonuses to both weapon types like the Navy Scythe. Sovereignty and Population New Mining Mechanics |

As a gallente force trained in to these amarr pieces of crap.... i welcome the amarr drone boats. It's about time they put out something worth flying. Now, to take out that holy water sprayer and for goodness sakes let's hope i don't get drunk and pee in the holy water fountain again. |

Variety is so awful isn't it?
The specific issue with the Typhoon was it's a pain in the as to use because of its kitchen sink approach where you have to be able to use EVERYTHING to actually use one. |

It was one single special ship. If you had the skills for it (which I do) it is a pure sweet swiss army knife of goodness.
IMO, there was no need to turn it into a raven. Even if the they wanted to change it fine, but don't turn it into a caldari tub. That's so un-Matar (or, I guess, it used to be when sanity lived).
I don't really get yuor 'Variety is so awful isn't it?' comment. They are taking away variety (phoon == raven), not creating more variety. |

Other than the weapons platform, there really isn't that much in common between the new raven and the new phoon.
And have you actually flown the new Cyclone? |

Missile use is not, and never has been, exclusive to Caldari. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

You might also consider that the best Typhoon fits used missiles, and now will no longer have wasted bonuses.
Keep going though, I enjoy a good troll thread.  To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors.
