Edited by: SFX Bladerunner on 27/08/2008 12:03:34 Edited by: SFX Bladerunner on 27/08/2008 12:02:18 I'm a minmatar pilot and my roleplaying genes keep telling me to stick to minmatar ships only.. for now that's fine cuz minmatar have some bad-ass PVP non-cap ships and I still have to train up some of the T2 variants.
However I am quite hesitant to start skilling up for capital ships because the minmatar capitals just SUCK. Sure people say they can be usefull if used properly and for the right goals... but generally making 3 racial capitals that work with either dps or tank and then a 4th that works with -INSERT RANDOM PURPOSE HERE- just doesn't sound right to me.
Now personally I wouldn't mind that at all actually.. I like diversity. But the way it is right now all the -RANDOM PURPOSE- 'experimental' ships are matari, leading me to believe CCP uses the minmatar as their sort of bastardly experimental race to just play around with.
I am not going to propose any changes or anything, because honestly if CCP needs their players to tell them what to change on the ships they're not doing their jobs right and don't have a clue of the game at all.
I will however say that CCP seriously needs to stop the 'funky' ship layouts for minmatar. I don't mind projectile weapons, I especially don't mind them not using capacitor. Hell, I even don't mind having to train both armor+shield tank and even projectiles+missile skills.
But training all that just to find out all matari ships from battleship and up suck (yes, the tempest and maelstrom need some freaking fixing too) just doesn't make ANY sense at all.
so its either, make the minmatar capitals more uniform with the other races.. or even out the -RANDOM EXPERIMENTAL PURPOSE- capitalships between the races. (ie minmatar get a random purpose carrier, caldari gets a random purpose dread etc.)
I am honestly getting sick and tired of how little love CCP has for us matari. I was relieved when nanophoons were invented and thought: "finally, we found something we're good at" just to find CCP nerfing the **** (edit: whoops, curse) outta speedmods not soon thereafter.
and now I hear CCP is going to NERF speed even more? why don't you twist the knife in my back around a tad more will ya..
minmatar are already the overall worst race to fly, and you go and nerf speedships even more (read: minmatarships, since minmatar ships are basically the only ones that overall rely on speed, cuz they sure as hell tank for nothing)
ok, sorry for the long incoherent post, just venting my frustration and anger.
Apologies to any people I might have offended, playerbasewise or CCP/dev wise. We just need a boost, a big one. that's all __________________________________________________
