I can vouch for Joshua's manuevering, it saved him his life 
I have to say I (regrettably ) agree with his views on this also.
Meaningful PVP is already a frustration frought process, this is not a good idea.
Sorry TomB but the numbers are way too high, the game mechanics only allow a VERY small margin of space and time to engage an enemy and these changes kill that. We already see people relying on lag camps because with invunerability times and multiple MWD it is already like pulling teeth to engage in combat if the other party has half a brain, what you propose currently will just give people MUCH longer to sail on past with the wind in their hair.
Your wish to make frigates and cruisers more useful is a good one but this plan will have more negative reprecussions than it will have benefits So HMV consider Andy Williams and Dean Martin to be "easy listening" do they? Tell that to my mate Dave, he's been deaf for 20 years.

Edited by: Estios on 08/12/2003 17:07:27 Ana, I think you should probably quit your whole speed calculations idea now. You dont have a clue.
I cant beleive you said Jash talks out his ass.
Not only have you been proven wrong a few times you then say about Nav skill that it gives bonus to BS as well as Frig so isn't a factor ....LOL Nav 4 gives 20% more speed. 20% of base 150 isnt nearly as much as 20% of base 315
Also AB's give PERCENTAGE increase to speed. 30% of 300 is bigger increase in m/s than 30% of 150. I suggest you get a calculator out before calling other people an ass
Drop the fact, your maths isn't up to it Im afraid So HMV consider Andy Williams and Dean Martin to be "easy listening" do they? Tell that to my mate Dave, he's been deaf for 20 years.

Ok Ana, I'm not in game right now so will not flame you again here. I just don't feel their is a need to call someone an ass to prove a point even if Jash does seem a little 'all knowing' some of the time.
I still don't think you have a valid point. I'm still pretty sure that Nav skill boosts base speed and doesnt Min Frig skill on most frigs boost speed ? We are getting way off topic here so I will stop.
TomB, I have been on Chaos and things are beginning to look and feel a LITTLE better. Your initial figures were way too extreme and I still stick by my feelings that PVP is currently hard to ever initiate and not sure this is helping matters. Coupled however with other changes being made such as warp distances and possible removal of Invun Timers they begin to make sense.
This Ninja Panda guy may be hasty in his posts but he does have a fairly humorous point regarding ship scanners, they are not very realistic or even that useful. Will this be addressed soon ? (apologies if their is another thread regarding this)
It is clear and easy to make a summary of this thread though:
1. People feel mixed fleets are a good idea 2. People feel making smaller faster ships harder to hit with large guns is a MUCH better solution than slowing lock times. 3. People feel there are other area's of EVE in its current state that should be addressed before pipe dreams of huge fleet battles.
I personally urge you to leave this change until after Castor as its receiving a lot of hostility (then again what hasn't I guess )
My pipe dream - people who play on Chaos should get some sort of reduction in their monthly subscription. Who wants to pay a monthly fee to spend half their game time playing on a test server ??? Tranq server figures too low ? coz they're all on Chaos So HMV consider Andy Williams and Dean Martin to be "easy listening" do they? Tell that to my mate Dave, he's been deaf for 20 years.

Ive been guilty of it in the past but quote:
"because with the invul timmer you have to add 10 seconds to all of those times"
Please test on Chaos where this supposed be tested - The Invun Timer you talk about has been removed.
Im still not convinced by it all atm but its coming along
