Yeah.
A 4km/s speed limit is not enough.
Limit these things to ships that force players to put some skin into the race. On top of this, players in trollceptors can still fly through space while generally being untouchable... sure, they can only go 4km/s, but that still is enough to outrun most combat fit ships in the game.
I've only really experienced issues with catching CRUISERS running the t2 link (though chasing them away or breaking their lock is still easy). A short orbit range on an interceptor which can't warp out makes it very susceptible to, say, a Rapier with dual webs (don't need a point when the target is held on grid by their own module). I've ganked multiple inties and a dictor running t1 links with such a setup.
Now with a 4k m/s top speed limiting ability to simply kite away from other predators? Light drone swarm, anyone? |

Under Dominion sov, your average fleet member got to contribute via DPS, and at least got killmails at the end. TL;DR: fozziesov not attractive for the average goon member who just wants to get fleetwarped and press F1. system working as intended. News for CCP (and you since you cant think). When Goons and the Imperium make up one of the largest player blocks, and we all quit, whos paying the bills? Think that over.
All the people who are going to join up because Sov is actually accessible again for the first time in years? |

Like some of the suggestions I've stumbled across. I'd like to add one:
Fitting an Entosis Link, either t1 or t2, cancels Interdiction Nullifier effects AND prevents cloaking. |

All told I just love how the people making the most noise about the new Sov system are the big power blocs. Of course they're the ones who are annoyed, because this system of mechanics gives The Little Guys power over them that they've never enjoyed. Sure, the overall chances that they (The Little Guys) will actually take and hold a meaningful amount of space from these blocs for any length of time is fairly low (though some outlying space will do doubt fall or become permanently contested), but that's not what this is about. It's about putting thorns in the side of the Big Guys, repeatedly. And judging by all the whines and tears, these new mechanics are doing that perfectly. |
