You could do the money grubbing thing and have a star next to someone who is paying.

This way we can all more clearly ridicule the ***, rather selflessly defame, who give money to this train wreck.

Formally withdrawing this, as I have came to the same realization it would be better just to follow the ride, and watch it burn.


Never watched a slow motion train wreck?  Get a chair, and watch it burn.

Actually if you wish to go by what CCP did, T3 didn't compete with any of the T2 roles.  Any role could be done, on paper, better in a T2 ship, where as T3 would just fall short.  But better at the overall picture, and higher in price.

Specialization allows players to understand there role on the field, and gives them a good direction to move toward, IN a shorter time then running for a jack of all trades roll.

You do not understand the ramifications that this would unlock.

This only adds to the problems of persons not in the blob.

Ever heard of gate camping?  Now think of station camping, only worse.

Ewar is a trickly "thing" right now it is your only "class" that you specialize into.  Being ECM, Suppression, or Enwar.
Taking this farther the only "true" specialized bot that you have in a class, would be the ictus.  Truly only for Neuting and its bonus reflect this (well not the missile bonus for some reason).  Both red and blue are mixed with ECM OR Suppression with the only difference being the strength of the two. 

Specialize these with blue being, ECM, red being suppression.


Sadly what is leftover is demob.  For NOW, I would leave it on the zenith.   However, I would plan to introduce a red/blue version of a "demober" one being harder hitting demob at range penalty, other being longer range less demob.


I should have a tech "tree" of sorts up soon.

Assaults.

These are a special breed, they could be in there own class, however I would rather class them as "Lights" only for future additions of possibly Medium Assaults.  These would be mid range between the Light class Assaults and Mech range bots.

Full Faction Tree.

Light bot Requires.

Light Bot Requirement
Light (Faction) Robotics-> Lvl 1

Light Ewar Requirement
Light (Faction) Robotics-> Lvl 4 + Light (Faction) Ewar->Lvl 1

Light Assault Requirement
Light (Faction) Robotics-> Lvl 4 + Light (Faction) Assault->Lvl 1

Mech

Mech Bot Requires
Light (Faction) Robotics-> Lvl 5 + Light (Faction) Assault->Lvl 5 + Mech (Faction) Lvl 1

Mech Ewar Requirement
Light (Faction) Robotics-> Lvl 4 + Light (Faction) Ewar->Lvl 5 + Mech (Faction) Lvl 4 + Mech (Faction) Ewar Lvl 1

Heavy Bot

Heavy Bot Requires
Light (Faction) Robotics-> Lvl 5 + Light (Faction) Assault->Lvl 5 + Mech (Faction) Lvl 5


This combines Faction robot control together with Basic/Advanced Robot Control.  Streamlines specialist Rolls.

Required Ext for Light.

Basic Robo-->Turns into Light Robo (Faction)

Example.  Yagel

Light Numi Robo->Lvl 1

Requirement for Assault

(You can look up current) to

Light Assault (Faction).

Example.  Balp

Light Assault Theo Lvl 1

These are for Mk1s only.  What this situation allows you to do is streamline your upgrade tree, and allows the player to truly specialize in what they wish to pilot.  This moves away from More EP to more better.  And moves newer players for more buying power IF they choose to spec into a current role.

What I would suggest is you make up a sheet stating what ROLES you wish each bot to have, and start tooling them toward that goal.

As the current direction is a straight nerf, which isn't terribly bad, but without a direction its meaningless.

Defined roles will make this game grow and diversify the environment.   

Please don't misunderstand me, when I speak of roles I mean general bots, and then specialized bots.  Don't lump them all together as this removes the creative enviroment that you CAN have.

Of change.

We are starting to see the beginnings of new things on the test server. 

All "good" changes, but does this do anything new.   You don't need to take my word for it take theirs.

All I see is recycling content so vets with ~2M EP have somewhere to spend it on instead of speccing for mining.

Guess its easier then making new content. lol

I can quote more if need be, but this sums up exactly what your doing.

Now, I will withhold all righteous judgement until after your supposed "blog" comes through, but for now my face might turn blue.

A 5 day in-forced break can make a game think.

I have to answer this don't I.

Boosters need a in game form of trading so that you have the option of "upgrading" your account without any RL cash injection. 

This simply transfers another parties cash from them into a form that the user can use.

No ratting on beta is harder FOR YOU.  Not for everyone.

Kernels are not trash but if you need to sell them to get them moving I will buy them for .01 Nic each, any color any type.

I'll be your NPC anytime, if you know what I mean.

So I was trolling, err um adding constructive arguments on yet another topic. 

And good old Mech War came up, can we have this with the cool sound effect they have.

Really just hit record or something and rip it right over, they wont mind, they are a failed company too, er a less successful company.  Rather more hated then loved? 

Pew Pew!

What kind of dream world are you living in?  They have no need to prove anything, with making a profit, burning through cash, failing another MMO, and STILL surviving. 

They have nothing to prove to anyone. 

Change is good, but this is not a necessity for the to show they have to prove something.

Everyone who already plays the game is already done with research.

Your not going to get any love here as no one really cares.
