Yorda Battlestars GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.05.08 15:00:00 - [1] Damn, look at all those bob members jump to the defense of titans. I find it rather funny that the titan is the only ship in Eve completely useless against itself. Every other ship must commit itself to the grid to do damage, and is a serious threat to its own ship type. Titans are completely worthless against other titans (and even more so vs dreads), only a tiny bit effective against motherships / carriers (they can just deploy sentries or more drones), and is completely designed for taking out supcapitals. With the exception of the certain sniping hacs / bcs Titans are the only ship type specifically designed for taking out ships smaller than themselves, and doing so in mass. I'd personally like to see the doomsday replaced with a modified siege mod, that increased the damage done by more than that of a dread siege mod but still allowed the titans to be remote repped (lets face it, in a large fleet battle they'd be primaried and worthless pretty much every time if they couldn't be remote repped). They have turret slots / turret bonuses allready built into the ship anyway. Originally by: nlewis jammers are the meatshield [Bob] wish their pets were
Yorda Battlestars GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.05.08 17:27:00 - [2] Originally by: Malachon Draco Originally by: Dianabolic If we're going to balance it, we must ignore lag. Lag affects everyone equally, if we're to consider lag then half the mods and ships in eve are imbalanced (example, shields are imbalanced over armour because shields will naturally regen, in lag you can't activate an armor repper, ergo shields > armour, you see my point I'm sure). I'm sorry Dianabolic, but this statement is incorrect when it comes to titans. If a titan warps to a grid to DD, he does not need to wait for the enemies to show up to hit his DD, he does not need to wait on any kind of target lock. He can warp in, click the DD, wait till it fires and get out again. Anyone else on a grid or warping to a grid must wait till the grid loads, till he can target an opponent, only then can he activate his modules and start shooting. So lag definitely affects titans less than other ships because the DD is not nearly affected by lag as much as other weapons (with the exception of smartbombs, but I don't see them as a viable weapon in those engagements). Actually, you can probably just start mashing your DD key when you enter warp and it'll go off before most people can even see your titan.

Yorda Battlestars GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.05.08 19:05:00 - [3] Originally by: Gorjer Didn't read the whole thread, so sorry if its been mentioned. One way to fix this issue, pretty nice and balanced fix if you ask me:- A New Command-Ship classed 'anti-dd' Vessel:- Attributes:- 1 ship will reduce 1 DD blast for ships within 250-300km by (~50%) (recahrges every hour) Ship is immune to DD blasts. Thats right, the (defending/titan) alliance now has to field at least a few ships to pop these Anti-DD ships, if they want the full wrath of their DD to be seen. Tell me what you think? i think its an idea that could work, obs needs expanding. Gorjy You might as well save yourself the trouble and remove DD's completely.

I dont't even know why because we fight for the little man, "BOBin Hood". Nice troll. Originally by: nlewis jammers are the meatshield [Bob] wish their pets were
Yorda Battlestars GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.05.09 13:57:00 - [5] Originally by: Idaeus This thread is dumb. It's pretty funny reading all the BoB posts, especially the ones you can tell have been in BoB for like a week. Originally by: nlewis jammers are the meatshield [Bob] wish their pets were
Yorda Battlestars GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.05.09 14:11:00 - [6] Originally by: ceo Dargothe Edited by: ceo Dargothe on 09/05/2008 14:09:37 Originally by: Lord WarATron Incorrect. Cynojammers are underpowered in my opinion. The initial downing of a Jammer is easy since nobody 24/7 365 days a year camps a jammer. Once the jammer is down (takes 5-10 mins) then you cyno your capitals in. Its a seige after all and in a seige, you keep your forces in system until sov drops. The only people moaning about cynojammers are the guys who, for some reason I cannot comprehend, cyno their captials out and wonder why they cannot move them back in again. This is not lvl4's people. You seige stations and expect both sides to get losses. Its a seige after all and not a NPC mission where everyone expects 100% safety. In the past, it was possible to reinforce whole regions without ever getting a capital fight, making a complete mockery of POS wars. Now Cynojammers forces capital fights since if you dont bring captials, then your crapfit fleets are going to get doomsdayed to hell and back. ^^^^ That's probably one of my favorite posts in here.

Yorda Battlestars GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.05.09 15:06:00 - [7] Originally by: Smith Change EVE all you want. Someone in EVE is always going to exploit something in the game to its fullest extent. Thats part of the beauty of EVE...its a total beach if you are on the wrong side of the beat stick and very satisfying when its you who is doing the beat downs. GOD BLESS EVE! I think this may be my new favorite post. I'd just like to thank Eddz for this epic troll. It's made at least two boring days at work pass a lot faster.

Yorda Battlestars GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.05.09 15:33:00 - [8] Originally by: Phrixus Zephyr Originally by: Dianabolic Originally by: Phrixus Zephyr Originally by: Dianabolic Phrixus, for someone who is trying to speak with authority on this subject, you're pretty ignorant. For someone whos trying to take part in this discussion, you've yet to make a point. Perhaps you should put down the cup'o'whine and read what people are posting, then. As much as it appears you'd like arguing like a school child in the playground, i'm going bite this one last time until you start bringing something relevent to the discussion. I am reading what people are posting and i am disagreeing with them, some of us are even trying to have a discussion. This is where one person gives their opinion and backs it up with reason and the other does the same. It is not dismissing posts as 'whine' just because they don't agree with your point of view. Actually he did post his thoughts on titans on page 4 with two simple posts. Since then he's been trying to troll people or something I dunno. Also, this is probably the last place you should come when wanting to have a discussion. I think SPYAD would be a better choice.

Yorda Battlestars GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.05.09 15:56:00 - [9] Originally by: Battousai Look ma' I am in a KIAEddz Whine 'Pay attention to me' thread. Seriously though, He has been in a Titan for what, less than two weeks? Has he even taken this Titan into combat? CynoJammed Systems.... Hmm I seem to recall 2 CynoJammed system falling very, very, very fast to an unnamed alliance not to long ago, thus CynoJammers overpowered argument is moot, just everyone else who whines about it do not know how to defeat them. I swear the amount of stupidity and sheep following stupid people is rife within this thread. 1. Titans - Only One or Two alliances actually USE their Titans. If you do NOT use yours in combat STFU until you actually know how to pilot one. 2. CynoJammed Systems - Learn how to defeat it, do not whine because your too bleeding stupid to figure out how, or learn from someone who has taken cynojammed and Titan Defended systems within a matter of minutes. Oh, one other thing. We ARE better than YOU, so either wise up and grow a pair, or cower in your little systems and whine about how overpowered one thing or another is to yourself. The Rest of us will figure out how to overcome and come kill you while you cower and whine. Ahahahahahahah, oh man. This thread is pure gold.
