So I should start out by saying I'm not a titan pilot, though it has always been my wish to one day get into a super and then a titan. With that being said, it is called a "Super Carrier" and as CCP Grayscale mentioned earlier refuting another post, CARRIERS are supposed to be the ones that kill the battleships not the dreads, supers or titans. If you look at the name "Super Carrier" It has carrier in it, and means that they should be able to do both intended purposes for both a carrier and a super, which is kill battleships and destroy structures.
After the last Super Carrier Nerf, supers became no more than giant logistics and structure grinders that people had wasted millions of SP and months of training into Drone skills to fly properly, but it was an accepted change as now supers are used as the logistics for the Titans who can kill alpha fleets that would otherwise be to strong. Now Super carriers are one role either grind structures or kill battleships (ineffectively) and titans will have one role to grind structures. Super carriers need a larger drone bay if they are going to have to take on both roles, which previously the Titans could have played, but that was also done away with by the same CSMs because they were losing BCs to supers. Which is stupid and a waste of SP and isk for Titan and Super pilots as they trained Guns/Drones and wasted isk on those skill books.
With the last nerf all supers saw new roles as they could no longer be fielded alone and they still cant be. Without a support fleet a super/titan fleet alone can not live as a few well piloted dictors can keep them locked down for any length of time and have reinforcements brought in, so it is the fact people still need a support fleet and that's why the changes to Super Carriers were made.
If you are going to take an absolute bat to all Supers/Titans and continue in doing so, some sort of compensation should be given to those who fly them as of now, and in the future. In addition prices should be lowered and build time as well for both titans and supers to make them a more viable weapon for all alliances/corporations which will in turn result in more being fielded, more mixed fights (Capitals and Sub caps), and will result in more destruction of all types of ships. If a Dread is to kill structures and costs 2b, and a Super is to kill dreads and Capitals should be about 5b, and a Titan to kill Capitals and Structures is about a combination of the two, but we'll say 10-15b...
In terms of prices a frigate costs 200k > Cruiser 3m > BC 35m > BS 155m > Carrier 1.2b > Dread 2b > Super 20b > Titan 105b
For the prices Supers/Titans have the same roles as Carrier/Dread so they should be MUCH closer in price.
Lastly a point about this thread is Goons you keep crapping in it, and have yet to make a valid point besides posting a few killboards of you getting owned because you wouldn't field your capitals or supers. The ONLY CSMs that have posted in this thread have also been Goons and 90% of people in this thread FOR the changes are goons as well. The same CSMs that changed Supers to be useless against sup caps (when carriers should be useful according to CCP Grayscale) are also the same ones now changing titans, for the same reason, they lose. |
