Maybe. Or you could just go back a few pages past all the shield battery drama and find out. I'm new here, and to be fair, the said drama pushed me not to read back that much into the thread (read a good chunk of the first page and the last ones). Added to the fact that my english is far from perfect, I'm french, I read some english, but I don't have conversations full of subtle hints every days. Maybe I should read more of the thread ! | ||

I think you have the bar set a little low. | ||

Looking at some pages, it's so full of awesome drama I should really read through it... But I might need some of my time trying to become an at least somewhat decent frigate pilot. Got the money to learn from my errors for a while, but it takes time too. Edit : frig/destro/cruiser rebalance isn't far from being a real hit, though. And FW, as broken as it is, can be a way to find good fights. Worked pretty well on the few ones I did (I've been trying it for a week, more for the frigate fights than for the ISK, and it does pretty well. Incidentally got some LPs too, but I don't know how they compare to other LPs and which LP/isk conversion rate I can hope for because I didn't try to use them yet. | ||

I suppose you're talking of putting stuff on both side and killing each other, making more in LP value than you loss? Is it completely fixed now, or can you still make it work? You still need to sell the goods and risk market flooding, right? | ||

Whenever people ask me about how broken FW was I lowball massively at 2b isk/hr and they get flabbergasted already. I guess I might as well go full out from now on and quote 5b. | ||

I believe it was all removed as well anyway. edit: The thing you're alluding to was the way Goonswarm exploited the system. We exploited it completely differently and kept everything. | ||

Still not very healthy for the game. I really don't know how game developers can oversee such issues. Can't they pay some guys like you to break their stuff down, and give them a bonus if they find something huge? Would not cost them that much, and could avoid the hassle of having to correct everything on a live feature... And so, now, do you consider FW post fixes a hit? | ||

I've tried to look at FW mechanics on EVE wikis, but they aren't really documented (yet?). For example, is being more than one in a plex helpful to capture (not fight) in any way? | ||

I don't really know why there is missions in FW, now that plexes are the core mechanic. They don't contribute to the war effort at all... If it's where the brokenness is, CCP could just remove them, there is no logic in getting FW LPs by doing the same pve you do to get standard corporations LPs... | ||
