For those of you who consider yourself to be Speedy Gonzales and enjoy travelling in Ludicrous speed this blog may come as a bit of a shock. There are ways to travel way too fast in EVE and Nozh has written a blog detailing why that is bad and what we'll do about it, read it all, and check the graphs, in Speed Rebalanced.

 Quote:
Speed must never reach ludicrous speed, which is defined as speeds where missiles and drones don't intercept the class of ship they were intended for.
There should be a significant and meaningful difference in speed between the ship classes.
Speed should not permit a larger ship to perform the role that a smaller specialized ship was intended for.
Afterburners should be a viable module selection for PVP.
Guerrilla warfare must remain a viable combat tactic.
CCP, my faith in you is restored.
Now if you could adress the dyspro/prom issue, too...

I prefered the Chinese to English translated version in that thread that got locked. I didn't understand a word of that either, but it was funny.

CCP have effectively killed small gang/solo PvP in EVE if even half of these changes go though.
Glad to see the company that stands firm hasn't caved to uneducated whines yet again.

As I said in the thread about the translated version, this removes a blasterboats ability to get in range (MWD deactivation) and stay in range (Web nerf).
I like the idea of reducing web effectiveness, and balancing speeds across the ship classes, that's a good idea. Don't kill blasterboats in the process though?

Sounds good overall, but feel it might nerf blaster ships more then speed ships
and tracking will become a whole lot more important, AB ships will be able avoid slow trackers, very intresting

Uhh... What? Are we going to see a 50% reduction in other areas of game play? I mean without the ability to roam into enemy territory on my own and actually kill things, I'd like tanked ships to have a reduction as well. Other than that, good game guys, you have effectively killed solo and small gang pvp right there and are just promoting larger and larger gangs.

Then you need to actually boost ABs, and I mean boost them. Seriously, make them more viable in PVP then they are now. Even a 30% boost will probably soften the blow and will not cause such disparity as it will become.

On the other hand, if you fit a warp scrambler and stasis webifier, the overall speed reduction is much greater than 90%. That is, if your target is using a MWD not an afterburner.
But this is something we'll be keeping a close eye on.

Because getting into range isn't a problem at all.

Yea just wondering how well a blaster ship will track an AB ship with 50% web
might end up being the long awaited tempest boost 
and can minmatar recons get a web strenth bonus to replace painter bonus

Actually it's only the "Warp Scramblers" which have also been adjusted to range from 7.5km to 15km max (officer)
Warp Disruptors will remain the same.

Phobos price set to rise...
AB, mwd, short scram, injector.
Long scram in high.
mmmmm...lovely. Every other gank blaster... well... ab for your mwd and a lot of praying.
I don't see a nano nerf. How am I going to get a vagabond inside 7.5km? I can't even get it into web range.
No nerf here. |

The blasterboat is already dead, this is just another nail in the coffin.
Theres not any reason to use blasters if you can use torps or lasers now. Even projectiles get to hit at 20km... Blasters need a damage increase imo

In before nano*** QQ. Ah, too late..
CCP, don't get discouraged by all the whining you'll read here.
These changes are needed, no matter what a vocal minority shouts.
Protip to all: first read the blog, THEN poast!

It's been a long time coming. I'm glad to see that speedtanking will no longer be the only effective way to fight in small groups.
I don't suppose you guys could fit in a bit of love for the Raptor too while you're at it? It would be nice to not have all of the other tackleceptors not run circles around it.

not sure why nano users would cry, sure they going slower but the change looks to make speed fits a proper ship fit with 50% webs, vagabond seems untouched by the changes
