its not worth the bother... i went as far as to promise CCP Punkturis 1000 roses if she could convince tallest to update the thread... what she found out was the tallest is no longer working on hybrid balance and has moved on...
what we got is what we are getting for atleast another year... |

CCP Guard wrote:Hey!
CCP Tallest did something that caused him to recently become the father of twins (they'll probably be taller than me by next week...)! So he's away on paternity leave for a little while and his team is mostly focusing on their own areas of specialty while he's away. But continued re-balancing is still very much on the agenda for upcoming releases.
Oh snap... I take back all the mean things I said... Tell tallest mazel-tov for me eh |

Get into that source code, change a few values and be hailed as a hero. I'm pretty sure you guys don't want me to do balancing...
yeah but its only 3 months for tallest in total...
i mean yeah sure kids are important but are they as important as magnetic cauldrons spewing plasma?!?!? maddness?!?!? |

It gives people time off who should by all rights be strapped to their desks, making spaceship changes. I've suggested that people simply get dogs and cats instead of babies, but for some reason CCP refuses to implement this as a corporate rule.
Babies are bad, BAD. That is why more than 1 guy should be balancing the ships, not that Tallest isn't awesome :D We actually have three people dedicated to it now, the other two are just working on other areas (titan tracking, anyone?). Let the games begin
umm so when should be expect the dev blog and tears that shall follow...
i want to make sure i have popcorn ready...

When i see you guys post i just want to ask for my money back after 9 years. I do hope, however, that one of the main things to come in this focus on war, is a much better sov system which allows for more small skirmishes instead of forcing every system to become a fuckoff huge fight with 1000+ on each side. I'd say that'd be a more effective fix than nerfing titan tracking, although it has to be said that the amount of tears that would generate would probably be delicious. The problem is that some alliances (including my own) is based upon being supercap heavy and not numbers heavy. It has been a deliberate choice, and adding the titan nerf to the already existing supercarrier nerf (and we all know that supercarriers aren't really a danger to a subcap fleet apart from ECM Burst) would remove the foundation of these alliances. That is of course a choice we've made, and have been aware that it could lead to a nerf. However, we are also a central part in the 0.0 warfare that has been going on for years, and the general feeling is that if the titan nerf is similar to the supercarrier nerf, then why bother? Looking at rebalancing titans is fair enough. However from our point of view, a nerf of the titan in similar fashion to supercarriers would simply mean that CCP's vision for future 0.0 warfare is numbers > anything else, be it fleet composition, ingame skillpoints and FC abilities. Yes, good pilots will sometimes beat bad pilots while outnumbered. Good pilots however won't win against 600 man maelstrom fleets (with welpcanes and drakes) that can instapop triage carriers and anything else short of a supercarrier. My concern is that if the nerf of titans will be as heavy as the supercarrier nerf was towards fighting subcap fleets, you'll have some rather important alliances in the 0.0 warfare deciding they can't be bothered waiting for a "fix" on sov warfare that removes the numbers > everything focus that is currently taking place from CCP. No one can be interested in that happening, despite how much in-game fighting and "hate" there is between our respective blocs. I anticipate many "Your tears are delicious" and similar mocking tones, but I am not really that angry about the nerf, I just fear with CCP's track record of fixing things, there will be a long time between a titan nerf, and a fix to the whole sov warfare/numbers game issue.
you sound like you are in PL tell me you are PL
TLDR:
were used to powning anyone we come across and dont want to loose our shiny toys... please dont make us elite players actually have to play with the lower scrubs of the game... |

yes listen this is an easy fix
change the damage applied formula to add 3 variables
0 = cap ship 1= battleship/bc 2= cruisers and smaller
if 0 is true then x = 0-1 if 1 is true then x = 0.25-1 if 2 is true then x = 0.75-1
to do damage ingame the chance to hit formula comes up with a number between 0 and 1 this is rated against a random number being x which its self is anywhere between 0 and 1.
if cth is higher then x then you hit and the hier it is then x defines what kind of hit it is...
what this will do is titans can still do max damage to cap ships
has its damage to bs/bc's reduced by at least 25%
and its damage to everything else by at least 75%
edit: you could even add a 4th level for frigs where x = 0.9 - 1 then you would literally have to get a perfect shot to even get a glancing blow... which would be nill chances... |

what i think the dread is missing is his two best friends...
1. is the Juggernaut which is a capital sized tackler/ewar it goes into 5 min siege mode and can use an infinity point and capital nuets/nos
2. tech II tier 3 bs's that use capital sized weapons 8 of them...
this would mean a tech II Hyperion would have about 3500 dps and 15k alpha plus not have to go into siege mode... |

so that would mean further iteration on failente right! |

i'll say this again we are missing cap ships from the game...
dreads need freinds...
we need Juggernauts that are capital tacklers...
they use an infinity point and have capital nuets... (a few of these babies will make people think twice about hot dropping everyting in the super caps)
second is a BC version of a BS... a ship the size of a Freighter but uses capital sized weapons like teir 3 bc's... and has the tank of tier I bs...
add these two ships to the game and titan blobs will be running for d hills |

(a few of these babies will make people think twice about hot dropping everyting in the super caps) They tried this once and called them heavy dictors. A heavy cruiser ment for tackling capitals with enough tank to be able to be repped by a fleet. Titans alpha them.
true enough... titan would have to use its DDD on the jugger to kill it... plus capital nuets would make RR rather difficult to keep the turtle tanks going...
