The new system is actually pretty damn good. The fun parts are more fun and the unfun parts now go faster for everyone except people with 50 super carriers to grind with.
"Trollcepters" were hilariously ineffective in the playtests on Duality. Once borders contract to used space and the whiney scrubs have their directors/FCs tell them what ships to use a lot of their issues go away.
The speed limit I'm fine with.
The number of nodes and capture time being reduced so drastically I'm not sure about. Seems like fights will get a lot more swingy in favor of whoever can get started first. Which could be good, could be bad I guess.
Shy of adding sentry guns to stations, iHubs, and TCU there will always be some number of pilots able to "troll" attack your space thanks to the switch away from HP structure grinds. And if you dont go out and defend against them no amount of passive recharge is going to help you.
In the prior system, attackers could warp at will. Now at least you have a chance to catch and kill them. You will never again have the chance to sit back and ignore them, knowing full well that your safety is built on so many hit points that a non 0.0 apex force attacker would have to burn themselves out of EVE and take a day off work to actually affect you.

The only solution to the problems of Fozziesov is to scrap the whole thing, return to Dominion sov, and iterate upon a proven system. Truer words are seldom spoken as this. I doubt Fozzie will take the time to comment on this but it would be nice. Only if he comments by showing him a gif of spitting out a glass of milk from laughing so hysterically.
If you though Dominion was good or even "proven" you're playing a different game than the rest of us have been for the past 5 years.

The only thing proven about Dominion is that's been slowly but surely killing EVE's fun and subscriber count since launch.
