Hull tanking is entirely buffer and mostly achieved with rigs + dc II, which give EHP without the drawbacks of shield and armor tanking.

That probably won't happen. Oh Takashawa, guy who covered the cost of the bill out of his pocket, and Ander, the guy who organizes our Fanfest dinners each year, both seem pretty chill with it. They recognized Lychton was white girl wasted and probably didn't mean any mal intent with his stupidity and will probably just hunt him down today to get him to pay back the money owed.

only a 66% bonus

a harpy gets 50% twice

Eh, with four mids you can have tackle + prop + computer. Scripted for optimal range, you get over 100% range bonus. The Harpy on the other hand has also four mids and can't armor tank, so tough poo poo there.

All in all a Hecate has more optimal range and more tracking with rails.

The end result should be something like +100% optimal for a Harpy and +81% optimal, +30% falloff, +a shitload of better tracking for the Hecate. The Hecate wins hands down.

So the caldari t3 uses missiles, but to stop everyone freaking out at an uncatchable missile kite bastard they gave it anemic damage and a weak propulsion mode. But, six loving mids! The thing will probably be able to fit a shield tank with Drake ehp. Probably like 400ehp/s of passive regen too. I don't know what it's good for, but I kinda like it.

Eh, not really like the CSM does much to begin with. You can get more done by posting a "CCPlease" thread on r/eve or just IM them in the tweetfleet chat room on Slack than going through the CSM. That said, I'd love to hear a wormhole carebear trying to debate Manny on the sov changes :allears:

AT LAST! A show with nonono commercials!

Valkyrie is incredible, especially for a pre-alpha, and I'm really impressed with the devs. They've been lightly researching irl fighter HUDs (considered the type that lets you see through the bottom but found it was too disorienting), playing with map configurations, asking players for suggestions/feedback, and play the game themselves a ton. Our dev showed us all the different map ideas they've been working on with some soda bottles.

Getting launched out of the fighter bay for the first time is breath-taking. Everything in the cockpit is like, right there in front of you. After a few minutes I forgot the goggles were even there. Gameplay-wise it's a pretty typical arcade combat flight sim but the immersion is just incredible. You can look over your freakin shoulder at the guy on your tail. I constantly found myself looking straight up, tracking dudes with my missiles while banking around to form up on teammates, or looking down at the action below me before diving in. There wasn't any nausea either, but there's a distinct sensation of vertigo.

They really need to work on the ship class balancing though, there's a heavy ship with flak cannons that just wipes the floor with everything else. Dev said they definitely plan to do balancing passes on everything. The UI could also use some work, the health bars are smack dab in the middle and don't give any useful information. Devs said they're thinking about dynamic HUD, configuration options, colors, etc etc. They've also gotten mixed feedback on the acceleration and physics, there seems to be a divide between players who want new BSG-style Newtonian piloting with crazy tricks and players who want more traditional dogfighting.

I know this isn't strictly EVE but it's really freakin cool, about ten billion times cooler than DUST, and if Valkyrie launches without much competition it could very likely be crazy money for CCP.

So you got to actually play Valkyrie? The video released yesterday looked really cool, but I was skeptical of whether or not that was actual gameplay. Like as in there is something physically playable. The video was still scripted though.

It would actually be a cool "module" for gates to lock on and point based on standings. You could escape if the gate wasn't occupied, obviously, but it would artificially slow down small groups hostiles (terrain! yay!) and give a small advantage to small gate camps. Even if large hostile fleets come through, someone ends up as a straggler. If it's one DPS ship out of 500, no big deal. If it's your command ship, it's suddenly something the hostile FC needs to care about.

Players keep saying there's no benefit to sovereignty, so what if one of the benefits was that CCP allowed players to control jump gates? Make it so only alliance members can enter certain systems, and the only way a hostile force can enter that system is to take over the neighboring systems. Just don't make it where you can lock down an entire region from hostile movement, but like 2 or 3 systems that only friendly players can enter, would be an interesting feature.

This is a crackhead setup, but not as bad as you might think. I can nearly guarantee you that the Merlins are armor tanked with three damps each; the Ares is going to be a drone bunny. The FleetPhoon setups are going to play very differently depending on whether they're cruise-fit or RHML-fit; however, I'm generally not a fan. Pretty much any Camel setup will beat it, although 7 will have the hardest time of it.
