' Wrote:As I believe was previously stated, doing high-level anti-cap missions in a cap is now pretty pointless. The energy drain renders you helpless. I'm not entirely certain how to get around this one in particular (with the caps) without it becoming useless at stopping caps chasing smaller ships. Perhaps give ships (just caps or all ships) a set 10-15 second cooldown in which their energy does not regen, then just boost it back up to full.
I beg to differ - I am ONLY doing high level caps missions against ossies in my Bullhead. I have NO problem whatsoever pwnzoring 3 to 12 Ossies on one mission in my Bullhead, with the cruise drain enabled. Its called "Adjusting your tactics".
But okay, if people don't WANT to adjust their tactics, then I can see why people are having a hissyfit, footstamping and yelling at the top of their lungs, approximately 10 minutes after the update implementing these changes were implemented.
Secondly (mainly towards Tenacity) : WHERE in the Readme, or the forum section covering the Mod, does it say that any changes to the mod must only be implemented after a majority consensus among the players ?
The mod is made by Igiss and the team of developers - IN their spare time. The server is run by Igiss, ON his own dough. If they decided that they want to nerf every vessel besides the Starflea, they can - Without having to run it through any form of consensus poll or discussions on the forums.
If people then decided NOT to play on the server due to this, he and the dev team might change it in the next iteration. But the fact remains : They can do whatever they want with the mod, WITHOUT having to run it by the players first.
That said though, my experience with the devs is that they listen to the playerbase IF there is valid, constructive, backed up by evidence and examples criticism to revert or change something.
So far I have seen very LITTLE of such, regarding the changes implemented in this update. Au contraire, I have mainly seen kindergarden semantics, hoping to force a revert by Trial-By-Forum.
