The primetime is cool, the spreading sov defence across the constellation is nice, the defensive bonus too.
Super heavy weighting of mining bonuses to retaining system control.. not so much.

As a US player in a alliance slanted towards EU for active players, I would just like to say:
"Thanks CCP for stripping me of opportunity to participate in defensive timers for my alliance, now I can instead just sit around and leech off my alliance without having any chance or obligation in participating in defense OTHER THAN RATTING IN DEFENSIVE SYSTEMS"
It's so refreshing to know that not only will I never be around to stop an enemy from fighting for the initial timer, but that 100% of the time, it will always come out in a period of time I won't be there for.
Thanks CCP! |

Thanks CCP! Good news for you is that I can assume it will be like poco bashing. This also only involves sov not PoS's. And hey even better news maybe you should break away from your blob and form your own group.
Gee, sucks if I actually like the people I fly with and the place I live in, doesn't it. |

you still raise indices which makes things easier to defend.
you can still help with capture events that are ongoing past prime time.
you can be useful attacking other alliances whose prime time aligns with your TZ
you can assist allies
you can contribute to general logistics
you can attrack and reinforces POS and stations services
doesn't seem like nothing to me
So I can PvE farm which might add a few seconds to a capture timer (oh joy)
In the event that my EU alliance is so bad that things are still going on 6 hours later when I get home in US time, I can join in (heh)
I can go help other people that... oh wait the subject was participating with the defense for MY alliance, not the sprawling blue blob which this does nowhere near enough to discourage.
I can contribute to general logistics... OH joy! Instead of being a PvP'r, I'm now relegated to space truck.
POS warfare is cancer. And attacking enemy station services is A: only irritating, B: extremely temporary, C: doesn't actually help my side in a defensive war. |

I'm sure everyone there supports these changes out of spite. when it comes to this, its not so much an anti-cfc circlejerk as a bunch of people who no longer hold sov people who hold sov but hate us realize how bad this is
Confirming I both hate goons and think that the 4 hour zone is a terrible idea, as a US player in an EU alliance. |

Yeah, isn't it great?
But don't worry, we still get to deal with the scutwork of bashing POS's so that they come out in our alliance primetime. Not that we will get to get on the KM's of those either, but still....l |

The new system will be great. Small groups can claim and hold sov. We have multiboxing alt corps holding down wormholes .. now some of those and more can move to holding their own piece of null. The only people who don't win are big coalitions .. and you have more than the means and resources to survive.
Meh. Large scale stability and stable logistic chains, along with the ability to swamp small enemies with the people they don't need for immediate self defense means that big coalitions are going to come out of this even better than the little guys.
When the bar is lowered to near 0 for taking system, the more force you can apply, the more space you can steamroll in a smaller amount of time. |
