Battleship idea to stop widespread use and make them more powerful at the same time

[Violette]

I believe touchy subjects should be discussed, not swept under the carpet. If I get flamed, I get flamed trying to make things better for everyone. I've done my reserch this time, and lots of people want more powerful capships, but most importantly, stop people like me from getting them. So... 20mil for a battleship lets say. When rhineland invades I'll defend, but 20mil to chase pirates? No way. This is sure gona deter me.

Ganking. With 3x armor and 2x damage and turret speed, good luck. Good luck.

Of course the long term goal of this suggestion is to create mobile bases when dockable carriers come into play. A good strong reliable base to launch from.

Give up kiddo and go back to EVE, seriously, its for your own good.

Isn't this the third thread you have made about Battleships?

Read all the replys. Doesnt it tell you something?

To ammend: Credits will never solve the problem. People surrender their lives for hours on end to get access to what they think is the ultimate ship. Therefore I will continue my bomberwhoring until people figure out balance.

I'll point back to this.

People will always want caps, but what they need to realize is this is a team game, Multiplayer. 2 VHFs, 2 Bombers, 1 Gunboat, 1 Cruiser, and you can take on the world. Easy. That's what? 6 People? And you already have good chance against the 200 people populating the server at a time.

Ergo: STOP CAPWHORING, IT FAILS.

I really wish somebody could lock these before you get Flamed mate.

Its for your own good.

Buy a bomber kid, they are the best of the best on the server at the moment.

I just got creamed in my bomber by a VHF with 2 Debils, 4 guns, and a Sunslayer torpedo.

My other bomber, same equipment, soloed a BHBC with a 4.0, 2 Flak turrets, and the rest turrets. Full bat/bot.

I don't seem to be getting my point across. BALANCE. If you want to solo, I suppose your best choice is a bomber or gunboat. Or even VHF if you avoid capitals a bit.

What I don't understand is why do we need something to deter us to stop ganking? Common sense and a little bit of courtesy to other --human beings-- that are also playing this game --for fun-- cannot be shown?

Yes, caps aren't that great out of a role-play situation, they look scary, but can't hit you for s***.

maybe that player in his BC was not good at aiming ? plus high ping ? cause one bomber is not to tend to hit an BC alone :D

I lost to the VHF, am I bad aim? Pings mid 200s, I'm getting used to it.
