pugnax posted:I don't think a Titan should be able wipe out fleets, unless they're extremely stupid and unlucky. But what about beautiful bombing runs that delete shield battleships? Is that too much power? That's the crux of the matter - right now, a titan can wipe out a fleet. Battleship fleet would probably be easy, cruiser fleet would be difficult, frigate fleet would be improbable, but all possible. Bombing runs take coordination and skill of multiple pilots, and there's a significant reaction ability. That's good and proper.

Also yes numerical superiority should absolutely beat SP and ISK past a certain threshold. 100 machs should beat 100 maelstroms. 100 machs should probably beat 150 maelstroms if the machs have a good FC. 100 machs should not beat 200 maelstroms. Or, a more apt comparison - one battleship should not be able to kill 250 frigates. one dread should not be able to kill 250 cruisers. Extrapolate as necessary.

pugnax posted:Again, I don't think that there is a lot of merit to 'sum of warm bodies active in one place at a given moment' as a balancing factor. Pedantic answer: technically those warm bodies have to be in battleships or whatever to be useful, it's more than just having a billion nerds in rookie ships Real answer: This is a bad opinion. Unironically, not jokingly, a bad and harmful opinion. As I said before, ISK and SP should give you an edge in a fight. It should not be the heal-all panacea that you apply whenever you're in trouble. This sort of opinion hearkens back to the unironic elite pvp "you must be this SP to have fun" mentality that is absolutely cancerous to this game.

Like, the instant you make "having enough friends" not a valid win condition, the game becomes who can get the most expensive toys and old pilots, which means that PL literally wins forever. "But chicken wing, blah blah blah blue donut friends with everyone dirty blobbers " Yeah it's actually very Cool and Good that making friends and cooperation is the path to success.

CommonShore posted:titan doomsday doesn't require a password I have my passwords saved pugnax posted:Totally agreed, but earlier in the conversation it was pointed out that you couldn't drop on the Titan doomsdaying a gang of scoutless shield cruisers on a gate because the Titan had a friendly fleet waiting. So is there some sort of fairness ratio of fleet sizes? gently caress the friendly fleet, who in the scoutless shield cruiser fleet has a cyno? What's the likelihood that someone can find a dictor/hic and cyno and get tackle before the titan's DD cycle is up and he jumps out? What's the likelihood that that shield cruiser fleet has a dreadbomb waiting in the wings for just this occasion? What's the likelihood that a dreadbomb can be assembled in the time before the titan fucks off? What's the likelihood that the correct combination of these things happens and the titan is actually dropped on? Before escalation is even an option, you need to take a fuckton of other factors into account. Realisticially, if the titan pilot does this a bunch then sure you can set a trap for him. Then we get into the escalation argument, and honestly if you have a big 'ol support fleet ready to defend that titan and we can't beat it then sure, you win, that's fair. The problem is, we don't even get to that escalation because in the time it took us to form a fleet and get on grid, the titan has already frogged out and posted five different threads on r/eve

Xolve posted:100 Machs will probably poo poo on 150 Maels as long as you fit them properly (i.e. not whatever that poor yacht fleet fit was). Okay yeah but you know what I mean. I'm okay with Titans existing - I just think their utility should be limited to anti-cap and, in some specifically-fit-for situations, anti-BS.

Zephyrine posted:Goonfleets soup pot is somewhere on the private servers forum. I would guess that a majority of people who read this thread are Imperium goons, so this is still primarily a goonfleet-aligned soup pot. Note that I said "read this thread" not "post in this thread" because the non-Imperium folks most certainly try to make up for their lack of readership in post volume

Personally I don't see why people give so much of a poo poo about ~the leadership~ and ~the direction~ of goonwhatever. It is eminently possible to find a group of people you like Doing A Spaceship with in our big dumb coalition and then never poking your head outside that group again, all while remaining under the sheltering umbrella of all our established quality of life stuff. Don't like space-TPS-reports? Don't get a spacejob (or, get a spacejob that doesn't require you to fill out space-tps-reports, which is most of them). e: additionally, don't be offended when you get purged from your spacejob for not actually doing your spacejob. Space-TPS-reports are one thing, getting a title and then promptly loving off while reveling in your newfound space-importance is another. Don't like interceptor fleets? Do something with miniluv or badops foreign legion or just join a loving caracal fleet who cares? Hell, just grab a handful of friends in some kitchen sink bullshit and go look for a fight. Don't like stuff like doxxing or *-ism? First, learn yourself with respect to what doxxing actually is because the definition some of you are working with is loving comical, then when something actually lovely happens holler and bleat about wherever you want it because people don't actually get purged for not ~bending the knee~ and probably there will be a bunch of Imperium folks who agree with you. (See: questionable blackops channels). ChickenWing fucked around with this message at 22:14 on May 5, 2016 |
