Nom nom spiders.

But I'm confused now, so I'm not going to pursue that any more.

Back on topic...

One of the main issues I've ever had with raw PvP on Discovery is how lame it got. I've had fights last for insane amounts of time just to end with both of us going "Bugger it, this is going nowhere" and mutually agreeing to leave.

I have to fly an LF as a SCRA scrub.

It's... interesting. But I'm so used to VHFs that I end up flying it light one. >:I

oh dont get me started on the SCRA shipline. just fly around your target for 20 minutes, periodically shooting him to down his shield. he'll either nuke himself out of frustration or just cuss at you and get banned:cool:

So...

People complain when insta-kills exist and call them no-skill, nub-killing, imbalanced weapons that should be taken out of the game or nerfed into the floor....

And when they're gone...

People complain that PvP is boring, takes too long and achieves nothing, with people just declaring a draw and going about their business, and that this is unrealistic and pointless...

I don't like the way Disco is balanced either, but damn, I'd hate to be Mjolnir trying to please you lot. There is no happy medium folks, there never is. Either you make things balanced and they're so close nobody can kill each other, or you make things unbalanced and give the tools to everybody, which means small skill gaps translate into massive kill gaps.

There's not a place in the world where balance exists, especially when people are too busy trying to get legs up on one another to care.

Instakills sucks, having to pvp for minimum 1 hour to win a duel if both opponents are equally skilled sucks as well.

PVP is fine.
The system doesn't need to be changed.
Now go and play the game.
