Anyone else prefers T2>all

Hi,

 

i realy like this game and i even like the actual patch.

 

I have 3 full fitted t3 ships, even with good mods, lots of blue , greens and even some purple. Also one gold item which i dont regret spending my explorer gold onwards (pulsar).

 

BUT: I dont fly t3 anymore, i have ten times more fun playing t2, in t3 i have the feeling i just get farmed, my winrate was dropping from 1.3 down into the negative while playing t3. Iam back to t2 only and have fun and wins again.

 

 

I had some trouble with T3 matches flying the rank 7 ship. Once I got to rank 9 and had enough cash to buy the top-level T3 ship things changed drastically for the better.

 

And the T3 scenarios are a blast!

Agreed. I enjoy tier 2 for pvp with corpies, but t3 scenarios are great, and pretty challenging with sabotage t3 readded.

uhhhh t3 is way better. and harder. which is why its better.

sabotage is on T2 as well, very nice scenario but it’s extreme easy on T2

I played a bunch of T2 last night with some friends after playing T3 all the time. T3 is way better.

any tier that you win more tends to be better…

I have a few ships in t3 but I like the ability to choose from a lot of ships so I almost exclusively playing t2 (t3 prices for 5+ ships are insane).  I would play more T3 if the real money conversion ratio  for credits  was higher. As we all know, the  last rank ship of any given tier is significantly better and the yellow ships are not as good. I forget but i think its about $20 usd for 1.2 mil credits which doesn’t even equal one  t3 rank 9 ship. 

T2 seems to be the place for people who enjoy stomping newbies to go. Essentially similar to WoW max level rogues going to low level levelling zone to kill those who are levelling.

 

T3 is where real game actually starts. You get access to most of the modules that currently exist in the game and most people who actually know how to play usually grind this tier for money and rep. As a result, you’re actually going to need to put significant effort to win and it’s still not going to be guaranteed.

agree with OP

Without Premium T3 is a bit inconvenient…

Really? I lost my license last week, or even two weeks ago I think and recently got into t3… I so far like it the most of all, the only thing that bothers me are the costs, heheh…

AHAHAHAH

I used to share this view, but now that I’ve gotten used to the much more reactive play style of T3 I’m starting to really enjoy it.  In T2 you can afford to go in all guns blazing with your tank at full and you have a blast.  T3 on the other hand forces you to gauge an opponent’s strategy and play off it, since mistakes are much much more costly.

 

The only downside is the repair costs, which (while still relatively minor: you know that T4 ships cost 60k/death right?) can make quite a dent in your earnings if you’re not careful. This is another reason people prefer T2 I believe: you get more kills, because more players are willing to lose a ship.  In T3, players tend to be much more concerned with surviving, which can be frustrating to players used to the happy-go-lucky pew pew of T2.

 

As long as you only die about 3 times (and don’t finish bottom of the table), T3 is still more profitable than T2.

 

Once the numbers are up, I think T4 is going to be awesome, thanks to the engine tuning and the huge number of passive slots, you can really add your own personal touch to your ships performance.  Unfortunately that’s not going to happen until the devs sort out the prohibitive repair costs (3 deaths usually causes your repair costs to exceed your reward).  There’s currently no reason to play T4 except to actually use T4 ships.

I don’t really like it more, I just like that it’s less costly than t3 and t4  ><

T3 is unplayable to me due to the infuriating abundance of disable mechanics.  Everyone is running stasis or some other ability that prevents me from playing the game and makes me stupid easy to blow up.  In T2 there are very few of these and thus it’s a VASTLY more enjoyable tier.  The only T3 I’ll be doing is the occasional scenario.  I’m done with T3 PVP until they fix the awful disable mechanics to be either super short duration or remove them entirely!

Problem between keyboard and chair. Only interceptors have stasis, and only idiots who zerg into the fray solo get “stupidly easily blown up” during it.

 

In vast majority of the cases, even when you’re something as paper-y as federation interceptor, you can survive stasis by popping EB.

T2 is by far the most enjoyable tier right now.

 

EMP missiles, Stasis Generators and xxxx like that makes T3+ gameplay so stupid.
