The Balance Whiners Rant - 11/19/03 - By: Baron Von Virtu

The Darkspace and the Whiners!

You know, these past few weeks I've been hearing more and more balance whiners. After the ending of the K'luth and Cl2k rants I thought it would never get that bad again. Now it seems that the whining is back, and its kind of sad who are the main people who are doing it.

Sheesh ICC, think you can whine enough about balance when technically you have the ships to be the best faction in the entire game. You guys have pulse, you have the Assault Cruiser, right there that's enough to take over the MV, let me explain. The Assault Cruiser is the main reason why dreadnoughts are utterly useless to UGTO and K'luth on offense. They can simply pound on the dreadnoughts from 400gu or so out and barely get scratched. But no, you guys don't take advantage of this that much and all you do is whine because UGTO can use flux and K'luth, actually I have no clue why you whine about the K'luth besides rotating. Most of the ICC whine about all this stuff then you go on the MetaVerse and barracks rotate. And face it, Flux is the UGTO special weapon…and the UGTO are gonna use it. There's plenty of ways to prevent from getting fluxed also…mmm shield rotation.

Now its nice to see that most K'luth have stopped rotating barracks and ECM forting their planets like they used to, but there's still a chunk of them that can ONLY seem to-do those two things. Now back when I was a newbie I always thought K'luth was really overpowered ship wise. Now I have seen that truly the K'luth aren't powerful. The ship is only as good as the pilot. Yeah yeah I know you say the K'luth dessies are godlike, I say they've got guns, but one EAD/AD alpha will literally tear it to shreds.

Okay, that's all the ranting for today!
