You once again attempt to take the accelerated gameplay clause to mean per human when CCP themselves have stated otherwise.
If you have a better scenario, please do put it out there. I was using a scenario that I was familiar with, namely, incursions.
If I come across as insulting, I do apologize. I have a very low level of tolerance for trolls, people who attempt to talk about something they have zero experience with, and people who ask advice and then ignore it.

The ISBoxer doesn't have an advantage of being able to kill them any faster, and indeed must sometimes wait for webs to take effect while non-boxers don't as they can move themselves around in a site.
Don't give out that bullsh**.
1 man running boxer 10 man fleet in VG, locks stuff at same time, hits F1 at same time, alphaing the target, pressing second time F1 to activate remaining guns to damage or alpha 2nd target. He is doing that without a sweat, he is just running one toon, rest follow and do exactly the same at exactly the same time.
Real 10 man VG fleet takes time to lock stuff, sometimes somebody start locking a bit later, activates gun a bit later, fleet doesn't alpha stuff that often, NPC (especially in OTA) catch reps and build up some shield. Somebody locks wrong NPC, somebody activates guns on wrong primary, things happen.
For 10 man VG fleet to keep same level of expertise that one boxer can keep up easily (lock in same order, primary same stuff, alpha stuff) you need all 10 pilots to by in sync and that kind of running mode you can't sustain for long. Where you just broadcast few commands and vioala...
And for rest of people, if ISBoxer doesn't give that much of advantage, why do you whine about it, stop using it then.
Alt tab takes time, you spend some time issuing for first toon to lock, then you swap and issue commands for 2nd toon to lock. In incursions by the time your second toon has all the locks and guns activated, your first toon is already firing 2nd cycle, so there is unfair advantage you have. So don't give out some preaching how it doesn't help that much.
edit:
Not to mention, non-isboxer has to find the fleet, if he logs in odd time when his channel isn't running, he won't run, you bypass that as well with isboxer. and yea, do prove me wrong and let me see you doing VG sites in competitive time without any 3rd party software or hardware help with your fleet of alts. |
