DuPuy	Posted - 2006.12.08 03:01:00 - [1] Hmmm.... The volume of sales of Scorpions, Rooks and Falcons seem to have slowed... Prices will probably follow... A few weeks ago I would have been happy to see a drop in price... Now, I'm looking at the Falcon and Rook sitting still in my hangar, generating nothing but lag... and think perhaps I'd better sell now before the price collapses!!!
DuPuy	Posted - 2006.12.11 01:06:00 - [2] Yes, this is not a scientific test. Probably because I'm not a scientist... But I was getting so grumpy looking at my $60mil of Falcon sitting in my hangar doing nothing I decided to try some min-max setups... So I packed it full of racial ecms, signal dispersion amps in the lows... signal boosters in the mids... one or two other goodies.... ripped out the heavy missile launchers in the highs to give me the necessary cpu/grid... (left the probe launcher in)... So that means no dps, and nothing more than its naked tank... With extensive and high ecm skills (tho not maxed)I was feeling hopeful the setup may be enough... undocked and attempted to lock a corpie in a frigate fitted with one named eccm. one jam in eight cycles average success rate... Falcon back in hangar, this time repackaged. Was going to test a similar minmax on my rook... but why bother? So... i've been avoiding playing the McDonalds version of Eve for years (big guns v big tanks)... now I don't have a choice, it seems.
DuPuy	Posted - 2006.12.11 03:50:00 - [3] I've never trained for battleships... I wanted to play something other than the standard punch and tank game.. So, given my ignorance, how much did the I-win Domi's sacrifice to get the "i-win" gun button? At the moment, flying a dedicated ECM boat is flying with an "i-lose" button as they have: 1) no tank, 2) no dps and 3) no strength in their "dedicated" field... All for a nice cheap price in ship, fittings and skill points. I wonder if those who flew the nerfed "i-win" domi's had to retrain the bulk of their skills after the nerf? Meh
DuPuy	Posted - 2006.12.13 01:50:00 - [4] Okaaaaay........ All us painfully trained and prepared specialist ECM/covops pilots have been feeling the pain of the ECM nerf... But last night a compatriot found his cruiser repeatedly jammed by a t1 frigate with a hypnos multispec... Lemmie guess: the new "luck" factor in EVE?
DuPuy	Posted - 2006.12.17 01:01:00 - [5] I guess the question is... Does CCP want a multi-layered, textured games with different options of game-play style for its subscribers? Or does it want a game wholly focussed about battleship versus battleship... At the moment it is clearly only a battleship v battleship game... With the current setup for ECM, the only way I will risk all that expensive equipment on my ecm dedicated ships is if they hugely boost their tank. I succeed with high skills only once every four cycles in a jam. But I can die in one cycle. Would any HAC pilot put up with only hitting their target once in four attempts, but can pop in one? If you're not going to boost ECM, give me a chance like any other t2 cruiser (HAC) to stay in the field a bit longer... give me a tank. Yes, I can fit a tank to these ships. IF I DON'T FIT THE PRIMARY SYSTEM OF THESE SHIPS - ECM!!!! And my t1 cruiser has higer DPS... Until then, I'll continue flying boring "boom - boom" ships until I get sick of it... hopefully by then, there'll be a new option to switch to before I switch off...

That is such a load of bull. this game is in no way focussed on bs. in fect all the recons,hacs etc have very powerful weapons and can solo most bs in different ways. bs are being used less and less. yeah ecm does seem broken and no matter how happy it makes me, it does need sorting but don't exaggerate. DE Hmmm.... powerful weapons on caldari recons? What, exactly? two heavy missile launcher 2s? Or would you be fitting the ultra-close range heavy assault launchers on a cloaker? As for HACs etc... still all look like Pew Pew types to me...
