Maybe he has been getting laid since he moved back in with his mother. Everyone has different tastes.
I think the ultimate point is that if you don't have the time to get good at something, then you accept that you're not going to be good, and do it anyway for fun, or you don't do it. "i advice you to go spit on the back of someone else because you are fall on the wrong horse." - Meio Rayliegh |

with the capital neut bomb i would say either up the speed and have it detonate on impact rather then time delay or if you keep it this way lower the explosion radius if you manage to nail a frig with this thing(not sure why you would be) it should lose its cap |

Fozzie, you want to know why people are mad about this? Because no one was asking for these changes. We want ishtars/drones online to come to an end. We want sov changes and force projection changes. We want isboxer to go away. We want HAC and battleship buffs to make them more viable again. I know CCP is addressing some of this, but please tell us when was there a public outcry that bombers had to be nerfed like this?
Some of these people are talking about how easy it is to bomb, but its really not. To actually get 30 people to coordinate and set up for a bomb takes a like of time and effort...and it's not a sure thing, it's very easy for bombing runs to go wrong. A couple weeks ago that Abbadon fleet that got wiped out by DBRB's gang was all over reddit and en24. Why? Because it doesn't happen every day. It was pure luck of the draw and something amazing happened.
The extra 2 seconds is a long time for bombs while it is currently still possible even now for lots of fleets to warp before they detonate. The slower align time is a huge nerf because whether you have 2k or 4k ehp, it's not going to make a difference when getting shot at. The cloaking thing is self-explanatory and is a huge nerf to all cloaked ships. Bombers are not OP. These are bad changes. |

I assume a bomb with radius of 1 m has to hit dead center on the ship's spatial coordinates or its a miss. As align towards a ship 100% speed, and if its not moving, launch. If it moves 1m/s or is bumped - miss. Am I wrong? |

yeah, no more bombing runs!
i can go back carebearing all the day, thanks CCP!
btw can i have back my skillpoints in bomb deployment?
alas why don't trash the whole bomber class and give us back the isk?
You can keep one bomber to use the new anti capital void bomb when Pandemic drops supers in Providence... uh.. oh.. no scrap that, they won't do that anymore in November...
Sadly, you give us a new weapon when it's too late to use..
Keep going with your precious work! Thanks. |

All ships have a radius attribute. A bomb just has to hit inside this radius to hit the ship. This gives you a decent amount of leeway when dumb-firing a one meter radius bomb. E.g.: a naglfar has a radius of 1700 m. It'll still require a degree of finesse, but not nearly as much as you're thinking it will.

CCP Fozzie wrote: New Anti-Capital Void Bomb: This is the first toe dipped in the water for smaller AoE (and therefore more aiming required) dumb weapons, which we think have a lot of potential in the future. It's a void bomb with the following stats:
Armor HP: 600 Explosion Radius: 4000 Energy Neut Amount: 15,000 Flight Time: 15s Velocity: 2000m/s AoE Range: One Meter
This thing is most useful against very large ships, and has to detonate right on top of a target to have any effect. We don't expect it to take the world by storm but it should be a very good option for harassing capitals, especially with small numbers of bombers.
Any chance of seeing more "interesting" bomb types along these lines? Something like this, for example:
Explosion Radius: 200 Thermal Damage: 20,000 Flight Time: 15s Velocity: 2000m/s AoE Range: One Meter
So a single target munition that has to be aimed and actually hit it's target, but has a relatively high damage to compensate. I'm thinking something like an "armor piercing" round (or bomb) compared to all of the "high explosive" rounds we have now. |

I still think it is too complicated.
A bomb is supposed to be AoE, its its not AoE, might as well use a special torpedo with a long cooldown. Why introduce this needless complexity of having to aim a non-AoE weapon manually...?

In times of nerfs you get to see the bottle of Eve players, and they are a bunch of whiners who need to HTFU and think before posting.
No-one gives a sh*t about ISBoxer. CCP has pretty much made their stance clear on this, they have seen the posts on reddit, they are fine with ISBoxer. This change was never about 'NERF ISBOXER CCP PLZ'. Most bombers do not ISBox at present. The problem is bombers and bombs and CCP is changing them to fix this.
ISBoxers have their align times nerfed and sigs increased too, their bombs do not go 999999 km p/hour, they are not invincible gods, although you would be forgiven for thinking it with the amount of posts that centre around them instead of the actual changes.
True, ISBoxers can setup faster, not like they couldn't setup faster and do better bomb runs at the moment anyways.
Bombers who really want to bomb can still bomb but must *communicate* and *use their brain* and *rise to the challenge*. If you can't figure out how to do this and want easy mode then don't fly bombers.
The amount of *actual feedback* on the thread is pitiful.
Now go forth and enjoy your Shield battleships, battlecruisers and other ships that were completely **** on and made unviable by bombers.

Actually, I think the point of this bomb is to also reclassify bombs not as AOE weapons specifically, but as dumb-fire weapons that require you to aim. The fact that most of these dumb-fire weapons also do AOE damage is not implicative of the role, in general. I'd like to see more non-AOE dumb-fire weapons, in general -- I think they reward skill in a way that a lot of things in Eve currently lack.

Why introduce this needless complexity of having to aim a non-AoE weapon manually...? This isn't strictly true. Many modern munitions (bombs) are actually designed to have a smaller area of explosion. This keeps most of the released chemical energy where it can do the most good: on your target. Claymores, Shaped charges in general, bunker busters, and omni explosives (breaching) are common examples. |

Do you even play this game? Have you ever tried to do this? It's a ******* nightmare. There's a reason you didn't see massive bombing ops prior to 2012, because it was ******* impossible. We tried, and failed everytime.
If your goal is to nerf bombing runs, then do that directly, don't nerf cloaking in general. Or the sheer ability to organize in cov-ops ships.
When the time to organize and bomb a fleet is greater than the time it takes for the opposing fleet to move, then your not going to have a bombing fleet because you have no targets. This does headshot bombing because its far more work than ANY other task in this game after these changes. You aren't making a mechanic weaker, you're making it impossible to do. So why not just remove it as a whole then.
If your goal is to add in the same arbitrary and pointless gameplay mechanics that just hinder players for the sake of it, that have plagued this game for a decade and make it harder to do simple PVP operations, then mission accomplished. IF your goal is to weaken a mechanic that is being abused by tweaking its individual stats, then you've ******* screwed the pooch on this one and horrendously failed. |

Ban ISBoxer. Or barring such decisive action, at least dredge up the fortitude to address it, make a statement regarding it's use. Knock off the tiptoeing around the issue, and address the elephant in the room once and for all.
Heck, if the truth of the matter is that you just can't tell whether someone is using it or not, just admit it. Many of us suspect such a thing anyway. Of course they don't know. And as soon as they find a way to know, it'll be circumvented by hiding the program's processes. The truth of the matter is that they know banning multibox software WILL result in sub losses. No doubt. Unlike everyone who threatens to leave over this or that change, banning ISBoxer guarantees sub/PLEX sale losses, because people with massive ISBoxed fleets literally no longer have their playstyle available.

During a fanfest years ago one of the devs said "We do not believe it is our responsibility to enforce trust" or something along those lines. I don't think a good idea like being able to see your cloaked fleetmates should be tossed out because of :spy:
Two things that I think are bad and I'd like changed: 1) Cloaked fleetmates decloaking each other. If you're not in fleet, then it should still happen. 2) Lack of a real solution to the ISMB issue. I'm only assuming CCP wants to nerf ISMB bombing runs, but if I'm right, they're going about it the wrong way. Add elements of randomness to the bombing so ISMBs can't perform where humans could.

Also,
Why are bombers now supposed to be tanky? They've always relied on speed/agility to tank and get away using the cloak. This change only encourages more MSE bomber idiocy that makes no sense for what the ships are used for. All they really needed was a slight CPU buff so you don't have to offline the damn bomb launcher just to use it, or be able to fit 1-2 ewar mids along with torpedoes. No purifier is ever going to forgo a BCS for an armor plate that just slows them down and makes them easier to point.
Seriously, have you ever flown a bomber before? Because from these changes it sounds like you haven't. You just saw some frigates and complaints about bombs and went about with your hammer looking for nails. |

Organization of pilots is made easier in a lot of ways with isboxer, but that has always been true and isn't some new phenomenon coming from these changes.
We'll be watching these changes very carefully on SISI, and if this hits bombers too hard we can easily make adjustments. We do not want to "headshot" bombers, and we don't currently believe that these changes make them unviable.
I think some people came into this thread expecting it to be something completely different, and are therefore disappointed.
If you want to discuss our policies surrounding isboxer that is fine, but there are other threads for that. It was viable yes, but also tedious and frustrating. Generally speaking I've liked the progress CCP has made in removing those kinds of elements from EVE's gameplay over the past few years.
Undoing the cloaking fix is a step backward.
There's nothing wrong with the principal of making bomb runs and black ops more difficult unless you have good coordination. My issue is you're taking away the quality of life change without providing any coordination/cooperation tools to offset it. A good start would be allowing ships in the same squad/fleet/whatever to see their cloaked bros so you can actually make intelligent piloting choices and have useful references for communication.
If having cloaked ships decloak one another is a design goal you're committing to, I strongly suggest you take the same approach as the nullsec team has to 0.0 logistics. Dont nerf it out of the water until there's tools players can use to relieve some of the frustration. "Alekseyev Karrde: mercenary of my heart." -Arydanika, Voices from the Void
