I was wondering if it would be possible for the alpha clones to be able to use non-standard fits. it seems really limiting to me to force an armor tank on Galentee ships for the sake of a smaller skill tree. In a way, it seems like there's very few fits that actually would work really well for an alpha, which gives huge counters (1 omega killing 10+ trials because they have no way of countering that omega).
I would love to recruit alphas into the game and have a good time, and plan on doing exactly that, but on my end, I love having strange doctrines, and unfortunately it doesn't seem like that's possible with an alpha account now. like, what's the huge disadvantage of putting smart bombs on a caldari ship, or nuets on a minitar ship? if you allow smartbombs and nuets on an amarr ship. You could say that person should have made an amarr alpha clone, but I don't see my friends liking that restriction, nor do I see a huge advantage to having that limitation.
My 2 cents:
Allow all forms of E-War on all ships.
Allow non standard tank (including emission / remote armor repair) on all races.
Allow other non standard modules / weapons? (ex: lasers on a caldari ship)
As far as security restricting for suicide ganking, I'd be curious to see about restriction, the fact is you can do a lot of damage if you have a large enough swarm, but the as far as I can tell the investment is actually higher after this update due to security status requirements.
If you allow one race to do it, and it's not considered game breaking in the most powerful form, who cares if there's some guy with a nuet on a tristan that has a shield tank.
Honestly though, I'm really excited, I have a few friends that have expressed interest, but wouldn't try the game because of the "heafty" price tag. I am fairly certain they would find the idea of screwing around in some weaker, silly ships quite entertaining while getting smashed to bits (only to make that kill in low/null sec so much more satisfying when we actually, finally manage to pop something). |
