Here's a thought... stop using drones as a balance mechanic for every god damn ship in game. Drones should be super rare to see on almost any ship except a drone class ship. You guys have added them wrongfully to so many ships they do not belong on simply because you have no clue how to balance your game. So you resort to the option that... oh drone bay can give the ship more umph... when it makes absolutely no sense on the ships you give it too.
By default, this game shouldn't have more than about 20 ships that use drones... yet I could probably name nearly 100 that currently have drones.
Give every class a drone ship since you've already ****** up the core mechanics to the point where LORE is meaningless, and them stop adding more.
In fact, take them away from all the ships that didn't need them in the first place.. like recons, most BS, most cruisers, most frigates, ETC.
Then nerf the **** out of carrier drone bays and actually double/boost the damage of fighters to compensate..... but as a trade off, make it so that fighters require a commander to be used... based on a t2 BC hull/command ship doctrine. Add more fighter types, make them faster MWD speed, but limited control range... and make them fly in formation with your ship rather than orbit.
Get rid of this **** where carriers alone can dominate a field.
FIX THE GOD DAMN TRACKING FORMULA
and then finally, nerf the **** out of supers so that fleets are actually fun and ti's not just an escallation fest until the side with the fewest supers has to ***** out.
And oh yeah, fix 0.0 so that the blob fest won't happen because everybody is a god damn roaming nomad since you make it so ******* hard to take space and don't punish those who choose to leave the region they live in to go half way across the ******* galaxy to fight a fight they have no business being in. Make systems destroyable in a day (or less) if nobody is there to do the defense to prevent this from happening.
You could do this by making it so that an entity can do multiple sieges in a day unless the defender can get up proper defenses to extend reinforcements... defenses that would actually require a defending fleet if the attacker holds the system, and not just some BULLSHIT SPAM AND GRIND ASSHATTERY.
Then you can stop telling us about metrics that are absolutely meaningless because you guys ignore every pressing issue in the game. |
