So.
You pop up a cyno. You can't move, warp, or dock for 10 minutes.
... So, unless you create a cyno in a POS, basically, what you're doing is putting up a big flag that can be seen system wide, that says "Please come shoot me". That, if you're trying to sneak into enemy territory and up a cyno there, you have no option but to do it at a safe spot and pray, since people can warp to beacons.
Somehow I don't think I'll be using a falcon to make a cyno field, not at 90 Million a pop.

Every time you pop a cyno up it yells, KILL ME
Not to worry though, the specialist force recons FOR CYNO DEPLOYMENT can't use cloaks at the same time as they were meant to anyway.......

Disposable or able to deal with hostile aggression for as long as necessary. You can shoot back, dampen, jam etc. ... Best to use a cheap, insured BS with good tank though :P - or a T1 frig.

AFAIK, it has *always* been this way, or at least, it's been this way in the 4 months I've had cynofield theory. In any case, yeah, this is hardly new.

Yes, because sitting still and hence getting hammered for maximum damage is survivable. Oh, wait.

I prefer it this way.
Force Recons should never have had the cyno bonus anyway
Between corps atm, the NPC one is strictly a temporary thing.

Isn't it funny that by fixing an invulnerability exploit, CCP just signed the death warrants for those people who were using said exploit? Sorry for the people who were using them legitimately, but \o/ the cheaters get a little taste.

So using a SHIP SPECIFIC BONUS is an exploit?
...
Riiight.

The being able to dock to escape the cyno-lock was a bug, and using it was one of those exploits that, while technically an exploit, no one ever worried about enforcing.
It was fun while it lasted, but all they did was fix the bug.
Of course if they fix the cyno / cloak bug, that'd be even better................

Since when are the Cyno field Generator ships targetable at all when the Cyno is open?
Sitting still (only for 5 mins on a force recon) isn't a problem when you can't be targeted at all... just need to get away fast enought when the field collapses with enemies around.

Whats the big deal?
Hostile Territory :-
Ok said ship puts up a cyno. If your gangs on the ball and communication is good, then within 2 seconds of the cyno going up, capital ships jump in. I guess the capital ship support should be in nearby vacinity too to come to the capital ships aid. So whats the problem that the enemies come to you? Your ready right? If not don't put up the freaking cyno!
Friendly Territory :-
Use intel channels, do it in a friendly POS. Guard cyno ship. I don't foresee any problems here if you plan correctly.
Am I missing the point of a cyno? Capital ships jump to you. Being coordinated with very expensive ships is a must, if your not then your right use disposable ships.
