Not having Neut 3's suck!!!!! CTC for weapons is a bad idea.

Nov 24, 2004 Taljin link
Come on folks , there's 18 serco and 32 Itani , we dont have faction chat and the transports escorts are broke . Then you take away our neut 3's , come on Dev's!!! We have less folks , we dont have the Valk , and now we dont have the neut 3's and we are supposed to win? What a really bad idea , have the CTC over something less beneficial to pvp than the neut 3's.

He has a point but it will get fixed later, when ctc in general is fixed.

lol, get over it taljin.

It does kinda blow that the devs choose to fix the CtC reward the one time serco decides to just forget about the whole thing, but thats ok. we'll have them back next week.

Not that it matters, i think everyone has about a bazillion of them stockpiled anyway.

I don't have any stockpiled , and I think it sucks . What a bad idea , to have a ctc over weapons , lets fight over territory or something else less important than neut 3's . The smallest ship we can get is the Serco vult , at 3800 mass , you add 2 neut 2's its mass is at 5000 with a 2cu cargo , as opposed to the Valk at 3100 mass . That in itself is a huge imbalance. Comeon fellas , its not like Im asking for the moon , just the ships to be on equal footing . Pvp is more fun when everyone has an equal chance.

and yet Serco always wins when they choose to participate. Get over it.

the point of the ctc is to fight over an advantage.

so go fight for it back.
Nov 24, 2004 Taljin link
I thought the point of CTC was to encourage pvp. To give an advantage, either by ship or weapons is just a game imbalance and needs to be addressed accordingly.

sigh. (flame deleted on my own)

Taljin, at present there are no game mechanics for fighting over land. the idea behind the CtC is to encourage players to work together for something. That something has to be important enough to be worth it, hence the Neut 3.
IMO the neut3 is too powerful and needs to have about another 400 mass anyhow, but balancing the weapons themselves is another thread.

if you want neutron 3's less typing, more ctcing!! personally i don't mind the ctc the way it is. i have went up agenst the dasterdly Shape in ctc plenty of times.... and made the delivery without firing a shot. winning ctc is not just about pvp skills. it can also be won by groups working together, devious plans, and sometimes taking the long way around!

be creative, make plans to combat your foe's, and when all else fails.. create another character! :)

good luck, and see you in game. :)

I could care less about the ctc , I just want the pvp part to be balanced.

Looks like we've come full circle then.
