Much of this thread is an overreaction in respect to not having tried it out and not having seen the whole picture.
Yes, in this thread, not me.
Sure that's fine but calling for nerfs isn't conceptual critique nor do I think we can fairly conceptionally critique in any realistic manner until weve seen all that's on offer.
Tell all the political theorists about how they shouldn't point out the flaws in various theories and improve upon them, actually not just political theorists, all theorists.
I'm not rejecting the idea in its entirety, I'm suggesting alternative conceptual implementation based on its conceptual existence, which is something I do with theories of all kinds in my daily life, believe it or not, I'm paid to do it.
So build a quick charging FSD instead. What do you want me to do list every single possible counter in a patch we know little about!
Oh, how brilliant:
"Let's see... oh my opponent has a railgun, and I'm in a large ship/rely on SCB, time to flee!"
When you compare the rail gun modification to all other modifications, it's clear which one is breaking balance and which one isn't. Not to mention I already suggested that at least make it less effective against shield class 7 and above (Now I think about it, might have to start with 6 since Python is dead in the water with this change).

You guys seem to be forgetting that not everyone will have the railgun that destroys your shield when using SCB. There are hundreds of different modules you could choose from. A lot people will choose other hardpoints over it, because most NPCs don't even have SCBs.
How often do you participate in PvP? How familiar you are with PvP meta?

Which clearly is no-one in this thread. Unless you work for Frontier.
Or unless you've somehow managed to get hold of 2.1 early.
What he means is knowledgeable of combat mechanics and current meta and how they interact with these conceptual mechanics. Rail gun modification is the most offensive.
Though you did prove yourself to be not very informed in this thread.
