So my 30 mill sp OGB alt that is specialised in one thing and one thing only can be countered by another 10 mill sp probing alt. I don't get the whining tbh this seems balanced to me? |

I do all those fights that you speak of, but links allow me to fight outnumberd most of the time. These mythical 1v1 fights you seem to have in your head just don't really exist these days in eve. 9/10 that solo frig is no alone, or other people show up.
Being able to take on multiple opponents and actually have a chance to win, rather than just insta die is way way more fun and exhilarating than some condor vs condor fight, as tbh that just comes down to who has the more sp anyway generally.
Idk maybe its because back in the days when I started this game (2007) watching vids of people like garmon, wildcat & BP being outnumberd and winning inspired me to actually get out there and pew pew, with the power creep and general OPness of a fair few of ships in eve these days its pretty much impossible to do that play style without links, and its that type of play that keeps a lot of the vets like me actually sub'd to this game. |

But thats compleatly untrue, you can choose to train a second account and have OGD links yourself, or an ecm alt or anothr dps alt or a probing alt to probe the OGB char and kill them, its part of the sandbox. Bringing your inability to fund a 2nd account either via rl money or plex is your issue and should not be part of the argument for or against OGB.

While ogb doesn't make you fully automatically win or lose it massively decreases the margin for error for the solo guy and at the same time increases it for the gang he fights. Simply because 18km webs and snake speed across the bord will get you killed in a kiting ship when the pilots you're fighting are only half way competent.
Sorry but now you just sound like your crying because you cant kyte all the things in your ships that abuse the OP nature of scorch. |
