Guys, THINK!
Do you think that everything will stay the same if Optimal was decreased? Do you really believe that sir Tuxford WILL NOT change speed, tracking and optimal ranges of other modules when he is gonna make this change? This change will effect all of EVE. All equipment, all guns and all ships to balance this out. EVE will just be the "same" just scaled down, meaning now 50km to 60km means uber long range instead of 240km. Uber speed on frigate would now maybe be 2000 m/s instead of 8000 m/s and so on? Dont you get ****?!

Reducing the ranges would be good, but reducing large guns to 2x small range is a bit silly.
Yes it is a bit drastic. Maybe just divide everything by two instead? Then it would be a "real" scale down.

very bad idea imo, unless they also reduce ship speeds by and equal ammount or boost the dmg of ranged weapons/ammo. As it is i can kill stuff faster if i shoot with AM (for ex) from 30km than i do using ranged ammo starting at about 60km.
Also most long range setups dont allow for a good tank, so if you bring them in closer they will be useless and everyone will use medium/short range weaponry.
I believe it will make EVE has it is now just that 120km equals 60km instead. Think it like a scale down by 50%.

MMM. if they change the whole principle of EVE then traveling will take also longer because a bs with a speed of 150m/s will then fly 75m/s and a dreadnought 40m/s so what will the point changing this if, like you think, everything will be balanced.
gatecamps will still excist the only problem they will have is that they cannot snipe anymore outside sentry gun range. TUX re-think this! You will start a HELL for yourself i think.
greetz to all
They dont have to change the ship speed to alter speed. They could just change AB and MWD.
Make a frigate going 420 m/s go 1250 m/s with AB and 2000 m/s with MWD? Also remove all penalties from MWD and give it a agility penalty instead. When using MWD you can only MWD in a straight line. This will make MWD a travel mod.
Just thinking out loud really, but overall I believe that if its balanced right and done right, it will be better and make EVE more fun isntead of brackets shooting brackets. Now you can actully see the ships, and that alone is worth it!

Not to mention this would render most long range guns useless as well as mega pulse, so everyone would be flying ravens since it seems their range isnt getting nurfed.
Everything will be changed. Nothing is left without if a such change is comin...
