And Oveur what about those who have spent 120 odd billion on a soon to be worthless ship apart from the jump bridge? Is it a tough **** should'a thought about it before you built it?

If the only value you saw in a Titan was it's ability to remotely detonate it's DDD, I'm not sure why you got it in the first place. The difference is now that you have to (like with other Capital ships after the changes) commit it to the battle if you are going to utilize it's special benefits. You are not committing your ship by denotaing it remotely from a safespot on a Cyno.

The firepower remains, but do you have the ******* to use it? That will ultimately determine if your Titan is worthless or not

Didn't previous experience teach you that forcibly making people commit to the fight, i.e. nerfing warp cores, solved nothing, and actually reduced the amounts of fights happening all around? These continuous nerfs only led to the POS problems that we have today.
It's not rocket science, Oveur. Look: 2 fleets want to fight, but both know they will have to commit to the fight, and both sides want to increase their chances of winning, so what do they do? They blob. Blob via jump portal, blob via cynoing in ridiculous amounts of capitals. Both parties know this ---> no fight happening. Is that so hard to see?
Removing invulnerability to area effect warp disruption for supercaps is another thing that's ****ing me off - it's a controlled measure, because people got too many super-capital ships into the game in the first place, so you're just compensating for it with adding a mechanic that will make people lose their supercaps. Result? Guess what, even less fights happening. It's also a decision contrary to what was said earlier. I believe a dev line was something like Why should an interceptor be able to hold a mothership or a titan from warping, if it's so huge and the inty is so small. Well those aren't the exact words but you get the gist of it.
Well, let me ask you this: why should a dictor probe, that costs 40k to buy and launched from a ship that costs 3mil to make be able to hold down an entire fleet, including dozens of capitals and maybe half a dozen supercaps? If you can answer that one consistently with what have been said before, hats off to you.
