So, the question is: Are the CFC in this thread to discuss a proposed game mechanic or to "metagame"? Lying has its downside. People stop believing what you say. Lucas Kell wrote:a null blob could afford thousands of these things while individual would only be able to afford a few is simply to show that the individuals would not be the winners in this. But how does that affect someone like Harry Forever? Are you going to doomsday his Catalyst for 1 billion ISK? I think groups like Pandemic Legion wouldn't let you just walk up to one of their Nyxes and doomsday it without repercussions. And, if they did, well . . . adapt or die. As it is now, the barrier to entry into null is a) your soul b) multiple fleets of supercapitals c) intense, well-planned, and well-executed group play d) impotence in game. (I might be missing a few.) Shouldn't there be some risk and consequence of sticking all your eggs in one basket, or of even having so many eggs in the first place? Lucas Kell wrote:I get the feeling that . . . you want somewhere else to vent your frustration at the CFC. Empathy is a difficult meta-game to master, Lucas Kell. I commend you for trying and encourage you to continue practicing.
Right.. Except:
A. It would affect everyone. Superweapons would not be restricted to non-alliance only, and even if it were there would be alts. everyone would be at risk from them
B. It's not an "entry into null sec weapon". It's a way for people who can't PvP to get one shot at some easy kills. Once it's done, it's done. Harry wouldn't be able to "take over null2 with one of these, and if they made a weapon that could, it would be stupidly OP. Bear in mind they found the original doomsday to be OP, and that took years of training, months to build and 100b isk or there abouts.
You can attack the fact that I'm in the CFC all you want. Look at the idea though. a SUPER WEAPON, fireable by a SINGLE PERSON, which can kill a WHOLE FLEET for 1 BIL. If you don;t think that would be game breakingly OP, then you don't know EVE.

I never said it was a perfectly thought out proposal from Harry. I just said it was an interesting concept. As of now, "blobbing" is a problem with no solution. Higher lethality weapons is one answer. |

If something like this were introduced, the first thing that would happen is everyone would be bitching that the CFC sent a player to every single system in eve to blow everyone up at gates and stations and throw tantrums about how OP they are. Would be pretty funny.... |

Why would they use an expensive super-weapon to blow up some random noob's untanked Badger and some Caldari Customs Officials? They could use Catalysts. |

Any weapon that can be used by a single player to do massive damage can be abused by many players working together in any capacity. Just the facts of life. |

I'd use them to reinforce towers in high sec, then come back with another at the end of the timer to finish it off. Suicide ganking a high sec pos? Yes please.
