I know, but it's still a general buff (Albiet a bit useless for t2 capable pilots), and not only towards Caldari of course, Low SP minmatar shield tankers will also benefit. I was generally trying to make fun of the OP, by adding another 'caldari buff' to his list :D.

Id like to lock your char so he can only fly omen and apoc for a month. Then you show up on forums say they suck. Then Ill say "Stop bloody crying and just play the game".

It's a nerf to best named as well which is imo more important than the t1 / low meta shield boosters.

Originally by: Brodde Dim Edited by: Brodde Dim on 29/11/2007 10:31:33 Edited by: Brodde Dim on 29/11/2007 10:31:00 Fellow contenders, we can finally give you the preliminary score from the last forum whining contest.
To no suprise, its another victory for the veterans of the caldari whine squads, and this time it wasnt much of a fight.
While we are still counting points, the results so far are:
Caldari = +14 Minmatar = 0 Amarr = -5 Gallente = -15
And while the complete list of wins and losses would be to long for one post, I will just point out the ones that actually does matter to the final score. (Only nerfs/boosts where the ships role (bonuses) are affected, and general changes that affect most ships).
Gallente:
Eos: - drone bay - gun slots - drone bandwidth - scoop drone healing - Gang link, info superiority nerfed
Myrmid: - drone bandwidth - scoop drone healing
Ishkur - drone bandwidth - scoop drone healing
Dominix - scoop drone healing
Vexor - scoop drone healing
Ishtar - scoop drone healing
Celestis - RSD efficiency
Arazu - RSD efficiency
Lachesis - Lachesis RSD efficiency
Amarr - Tracking computers nerfed
Curse: - TD efficiency - drone bandwidth - scoop drone healing + neut cap use
Pilgrim - TD efficiency - drone bandwidth - scoop drone healing + neut cap use
Minmatar: - Tracking computers nerfed
Typhoon: + Torp damage
Caldari: + ship agility to most ships
Raven: + Torp damage
Scorpion: + ECM efficiency + ECM cap use
Falcon: + ECM efficiency + ECM cap use
Rook: + ECM efficiency + ECM cap use
Blackbird: + ECM efficiency + ECM cap use
Griffin + ECM efficiency + ECM cap use
Nighthawk + Gang link cap use reduced (boost for passive tank)
Vulture + Gang link cap use reduced (boost for passive tank)
Once again CCP balances the game with the precission of a blind man performing life saving surgery with a chainsaw, with guidance from a blood thirsty audience.
The question now is; Will the up and coming Gallente whining team take the challenge and try to recover? They have made a huge improvement and shown strong will the last couple of weeks. And will Amarr finally give up?
Is this post a whine? Offcourse it is. If one thing is to be learned from this next patch, it is that whining works. More forum whining will give you good stuff. And for those who dont want to whine? Tough luck.
Ok, Caldari whiners, show me your flaming skills.
*Edit: Added Neut cap use boost, and boosts for griffin.
dude go cry somewhere else. Caldari SORELY needed some buffs, im sorry another race might actually have a chance to kill your gallente boats now. Boost The Eagle! |

Umm whoopedee doo! Raven gets torp boost! Now take said shield tanked raven and put it in front of a passive tanked geddon w/ MP II and conflag. Answer... dead raven. Caldari in general in PvP sucked ass and now they may actually have some ability to do something and everyone cries. The Gal nerf was coming and it is sorely overdue because any BC that can omgwtfbbqpwn most BS and under, read myrmidon, needed to be whacked a bit. The Eos nerf is fully justified and I have no problem with it. Min are fine the way they are. Amarr all we ask for is what we have been asking for forever a REAL second bonus instead of the reduced crap on lasers which should be a given on Amarr ships to begin with. Otherwise not too bad at all.

Caldari = +4 Minmatar = 1 Amarr = -2 Gallente = -8
Gallente: - scoop drone healing (Ikshur, Vexor, Myrmidon, Dominix, Eos) - RSD Effectiveness (Celestis, Arazu, Lachesis)
Eos - drone bay - gun slots - drone bandwidth - Gang link, info superiority nerfed
Myrmidon - drone bandwidth
Ishkur - drone bandwidth
Amarr - TD efficiency (Arbitrator, Pilgrim, Curse) - scoop drone healing (Arbitrator, Pilgrim, Curse)
Minmatar: Typhoon: + Torp damage
Caldari: + ship agility to most ships + ECM efficiency (Griffin, Blackbird, Falcon, Scorpion) + ECM cap use (Kitsune, Griffin, Blackbird, Falcon, Rook, Scorpion)
Raven: + Torp damage
A bit more unbiased.

Meanwhile, still waiting after 2 years are the Amarr that the devs are 'looking into'.

I love when children whine about whining. The irony is enjoyable.
The OP is ridiculous. The exaggerated manner in which you attempt to present the new balance changes makes your agenda obvious. Caldari have needed many changes for a long while now... and Gallente have needed some nerfing.
To be honest, the Caldari changes, while very welcome, still don't address the missile velocity issues.
Regardless, continue to whine about whining.

OP ****** up on this big time.
First big mistake was treating this buff/nerf point tally crap as a zero-sum game. I don't know where you got the idea, but when you balance a design it is not a requirement (much less recommended) that you must make changes based on a "equivalent trade" principle. That's just plain ignorant to treat the buffs/nerfs in a closed system environment.
Second mistake was failing to add a weighted value to each of the buffs/nerfs. Can you honestly say that that ECM cap buff is 5 times more important than the torp buff? All you're doing is skewing the numbers to make your argument appear to look legit.
Third mistake was that you failed to scrub the patch notes for all direct and indirect changes that may buff/nerf each race. That's just ******* sloppy of you. Do yourself a favor and redo your data collection and analysis properly and objectively.

Originally by: Liang Nuren LOTS OF QUOTE STUFF
I'll concede your point about Caldari being the worst at solo combat pre-patch, that was really just a shot at Amarr ( ).
So what you are saying is that post-patch:
Caldari have a better solo-pvp ship than the Domi (amarr too for that matter according to your list)
Caldari have a ship(s) you feel is/are better than the Vaga or Sabre, and to a lesser extent mega, deimos, domi, etc in a small gang?
Somehow your believe that the mega and hyperion will make worse fleet snipers than laser boats, or that the tracking nerf didnt effect the rokh..... at least the mega has a damage and tracking bonus which will reduce the impact of the changes.....
These changes have enabled Caldari to be more than the cannon fodder they have been for quite some time. I do agree however that Amarr got nerfed when they didnt need it. Your signature exceeds the byte me limit allowed on the forums-Darth Patches Oh Noes!

Edited by: Atsuko Ratu on 29/11/2007 22:32:47 Woo, ecm is slightly more effective and the 1% of raven pilots that use torps in pvp (or use the raven in pvp at all) will now do dps on par with other gank ships.
Also, op forgot to add '-1' to caldari for losing easy-pveing, a fact that many a carebear still whine about.
*Not trying to start a cruisemissle-pve-r rant*
The gal nerfs were light ('cept the Eos, roffle) and needed in my opinion, and I've never viewed Amarr as being that far behind anyone; lasers have always been the coolest weapon and the Amarr ships are just pretty 
I put scoop-deploy nerf into the "fix" bin simply because nearly every pvp ship relys on drones in one way or another.

And the blue gallente T1 scheme is a lot better than the rust colored caldari T2 =)

If your so concerned about balance the first thing you need to do is understand that one items boost is not another items nerf. The second thing you need to do is look at the wider picture and not just your own modified toys, for example the drone scoop nerf affects all the races not just the Gallente and it can be argued that the Gallente drone ships suffer less than other races ships because they can carry spares and its the same with RSDs every race is using them so they are all affected, it does hit the Gallente recons more but at least your EW module has consistent effects that can relied on to do what the specs say every time the Caldari ECM is still chance based and next to useless on the unbonused ships where as RSDs still may have some use.

Haha, thank you for your thoughts, but you havent read anything have you?
The thread isnt about balance. I have not compared the ships to each other, or even the changes to eachother. It was about how much is done at once. The point was whining and overcompensation.
One items boost could make another item less usefull. But in this case it is 1 kind of EW that gets boosted, while 2 other gets a huge nerf.
The original list does not include every ship that is affected, because since every race use drones and RSD, it will even out. The list only includes ship that gets hit harder since they are specialized in it.
Quote: at least your EW module has consistent effects that can relied on to do what the specs say every time the Caldari ECM is still chance based and next to useless on the unbonused ships where as RSDs still may have some use.
If it isnt on a specialized ship it is not a gallente module. The only time when race matters to EW is when they have a bonus for it on their ships. And to a limited effect when it only works on certain setups like TDs.
And why did you quote me saying that I usually dont fly gallente ships, and then reply with "your gallente toys" =)

Aside from the Eos getting it's balls chopped off, I don't see Gallente being dethroned by Caldari in pvp. TBH Caldari needed a little something.
I'm more upset about the TC, SB, and TD nerfs.
Tracking Comps and Sensor Boosters were fine. CCP are "balancing" fleet warfare by nerfing mods that were never overpowered in other situations (PVE, small gang warfare).
And the TD nerf... wtf? When the hell EVER were Tracking Disruptors overpowered??? I just don't understand that one.
As for damps... yeah they needed to be nudged down a bit. But damps were the only thing keeping the Curse alive. Not sure what I'll do with my favorite recon now.

Thats comical. The Amarr B-team is a better whine squad than the Caldari A-team. Gallente has put together an impressive whine squad this last patch too. I'm looking forward to future forum whinefests.
