*hint* put a falcon on a falcon...(jamming vs jamming equals you being able to shoot)

its simple time to accept the fact that ecm with 20sec/cycle is overpowered

Let me get this straight.
You made the Hyperion run, but that was only possible after the Falcon jammed you.
So what actually happend?
You have had to do some sort of damage to the hyperion to make it run when the falcon jammed you.
Which means the falcon failed jamming you multiple times.
And if you expect one single ECCM to overcome jamming 100%, then I would like to get a hardener that will reduce all incomming damage by 100%.
Btw, you are a terrible troll.

i got an blackbird in my fleet on the other side of the battle so the hype was jammed too and yes the jamm of the falcon failed some times(never seen this before,maybe something wrong with the skills or so) the battle was a complete fail through ecm becouse ecm pwns all the other ew like warp jammers

True. Good point.
I wonder if ECM should have a much shorter optimal range and a bigger falloff. So if they want to jam as well as they do now they have to take more of a risk in being closer.

the range is always to much or what whould say the players to 100km webbs disruptors or neutralizers??
an dont forget Neutralizer needs cap booster to work effective after some time

I dunno, a neut doesnt need cap boosters if balanced with noz. But i see your point.
I do think ECM should still out range noz and neuts. The ships that use them are paper thin so if you get to fire at them they either have to run or die.
I wouldnt mind seeing the rook being used at the ranges that they can be used as now and the falcons having their range reduced to about 80km at most (maybe because of the cloak or something). They have the bonus of staying hidden on the battlefield until a perfect moment or warped into the middle of a battlefield unseen. That they should be able to do it and be effective at 120km+ is unbalanced.
I think damps would be more useful again then because they would have a chance at damping the falcons and long range ships(that are not snipers) have a chance at doing something about them). Falcons would still have tonnes of tactics they can use to be effective at those ranges and rooks would fall into the roll of long range jamming and therefore actually have a point again.

Why was your blackbird not jamming the falcon since that was clearly the biggest problem? Why was your ewar pilot in a blackbird instead of a falcon? What you mean to say is "OMG everyone uses ECM on me and I don't have enough of the right ewar in my fleet to counter it so instead of fixing it using effective tactics I decided to whine about it"

OP is a nub, asked him what a constructive solution might be and it was ignored.
You lost a ship when jammed GET OVER IT.
Oh and that situation where the falcon misses jams every now and then is actually the norm, your either lyeing about being perma-jammed every other fight or ur just incredibly unlucky (probably the first). EVE history

You see its people like this with arguments like this that make this thread pointless. Its a whine because somebody got jammed or permerjammed because a falcon was lucky (and it would have to actually be Lucky to permerjam). Or who could have claimed permerjammed coz he died within the 20secs of jam cycle, in which case he never stood a chance coz he was out numbered or in a Really pants ship (im begining to think the latter is probably the case in most of crying about ecm stoll my dolly arguments). The person seems unable to equip basic modules (which are not chance based in their opperation) to counter the totally chance base modules of the ecm ship.
Is also unable to find out how to fight them or what to do about them by posting ingame chat or by posting on the tactics forums. the player has instead posted the bright idea of removing something from the game or that it should be changed, despite the many replies in the thread on how to get around the ecm or actually offer solutions on how it might be changed or altered.
The thing is ECM was not the only thing used that got them killed. It was also warpjammers or disrupters or webs throwing in its two sense to keep you from getting away, because there was no way that falcon was fighting you on its own from 100km. If you replace ECM in that mixture with damps, they can make your ship just as pointless and you cant getaway, also that will permer damp you were ECM is only chance based so it means you will get a chance to do something about it or about something else on the field were as the damps never give you a window of oppertunity to counter it - same for noz/neuts as well. 100km falcon or 40km arazu doesnt matter if there is a point of scram on you and a web.
If someone was damped and made just as helpless and got owned there would probably be a post saying to get rid of that too.

Like most ships that can operate at sniper range falcons gain the immunity to certain fits, couple that with the fact that getting jammed is frustrating = LOTS OF EMO POSTS ON THE FORUMS.
But it does not make them overpowered.

The fact ECM is such an issue for you or more accurately for people with arguments like the one above, to the point that you have to suggest a simple oppinion on the matter, kind of proves my point.

Would agree with that, and it is definitely frustrating getting jammed. But it does also feel really good when they are trying to jam your ship and nothing happens, and you just carry on like their not even there.

ECM is a problem for everyone as most people forget to tank against it, and yes, that IS possible. If you think about it in terms of tank it helps. After all, most peopel fit a tank against damage of at least some description...why would you leave your ships sensor systems naked as the day they are born?

You PvP and ecm is that huge of a problem? do you pvp in the hopes that somebody doesnt bring ecm or something? If you dont compensate (or compensate badly) for a possibility that obviously happens often enough to vex you. Then you build bad ships, are bad at stratagey, arent the smartest pvper or are slow to learning how to adapt.

Pyramid Quotes are hard to read.
A bit of the problem many have with ECM is, that countermeasures do not really work. A ship with high sensor strength and ECCM needs multiple ECCM to have a chance to resist a falcon. That is a fact.
Other forms of EW could be at least partially resisted through skills. Tracking Disrupters decrease Optimal/Falloff or Tracking of the Turrets, but the Motion Prediction, Sharpshooter and Trajectory Analysis Skills make it at least a bit easier to still hit a target, even when a TD is used.
Sensor Dampener have Signature Analysis or Long Range Targeting to help with targeting.
In both cases the counter modules Tracking Computers/Enhancers and Sensor Boosters have also useful effects other then just resisting the effect of TD or RSD.
The ECCM is only useful when you are at risk of being jammed and there are no skills that increase ECCM effectiveness or the Sensor Strength.
One possible solution with ECM would be, to give them scripts that force ECM users to balance range against jamming scripts. Another option would be to introduce counter ECM skills. Example:
- Sensor Recalibration,each leavel of skill decreases the time of being jammed by 10%.

Coutermeasures do work if you use more than one. If you still get jammed then the falcon/ECM pilot is either very lucky indeed or he is using most if not all of his jammers to shut you down...in which case your buddy should make short work of him. Again I refer to the tank analogy, if you fitted just 1 hardener, you would not seriously expect your tank to be more than moderate in nature would you? Personally my Falcon uses 2 sensor strength boosters, because I DO consider it that important that i dont get jammed ofen...and guess what, I dont.
At the same time, I understand that my ship is paper thin, and that if my jam fails im basically dead. You dont see me littering the forum with nerf demands because I cant be arsed to defend myself against whatever weaponary someone cares to throw at me.

Edited by: Deviana Sevidon on 23/12/2008 17:50:27 Sure the ship might be paper thin, but not that paper thin, that it can be easily blown up. Falcons can also use their ECM at a range that is impossible for any other type of EW to reach.
Fitting multiple ECCM might work, but once falcon concentrates on you, you will still be jammed about 80% of the time. A single RSD from a falcons gangmate and you will not have time to lock a target before being jammed again.
Also how do you want to kill a Falcon that is more then 150km away? A sniper BS or HAC can hit them at maximum range, but at the cost of using their Medslots for Sensor Boosters and Tracking Computers, with no room for multiple ECCM and without ECCM the Falcon will jam them without problem.

So the Falcon is at his optimal range....props to him. You dont need tracking computers to hit out to the range, and you dont need more than 1 sensor booster either. Also note that 1 of the 2 ECCM you fit is a low slot item...oh and you can boost remotely if your having a really hard time.
Rokhs and Apocs can hit out to what...200k+?
80% is a wild figure, I personally run with about 97 sensor strength and find im jammed <15% of the time, with remote support the sensor strength could be higher still and a jam even more unlikley. OFC there will be times when the falcon pilot is a jammy git and gets off a series of jams...then there will be times where it doesnt work at all.
Fiddling with optimal range "might" (and thats a big might) need looking at, but everything else ive seen in this thread is basically "waa waa I DONT WANT to defend myself and demand that the item is nerfed". Frankly thats just not cricket.
The sooner people start defending themselves, the less moans we will see.

Right now I can only say, that when I see a gang with a falcon arrive, I will be very careful and never engage alone, if I see multiple falcons approaching, I will stay the hell away.
Call me a carebear if you want, but instead of PvP I will most likely play the dock and wait game.

If your on your own, thats very wise If your in a gang and you make that choice, your not defending yourself against ECM If your in a gang and you make that choice and you are defending against ECM, you have no scroat
but I wont call you a bear ;)
