no, really?

That doesn't change the fact that a small piece of equipent that only weighs 1.5 tons and takes up 2 critical slots should not be absolutely game changing.. It's cost vs effectiveness is Way off...

I like what ECM has turned the game into, but I don't like the fact that ECM alone is what did it.... ECM just does too much for very little cost.

No one piece of equipment should be so powerful as to make people believe they need to take it to win, and are forced to play in mechs they don't even like in order to bring ECM.

I don't know Thontor, what if they hadn't introduced Medium Lasers, then they suddenly came out with them? Would you complain about the OP laserboats dominating the game and tell everyone that a 1 ton piece of equipment should not do 5 points of damage at any range? People just aren't used to playing with ECM and many don't like the new way to play. I get that, but it doesn't mean that ECM is OP, it just means we all have to play differently in an ECM world or be disappointed I guess.

Happy with ECM too, want more counters and such for broader tactics, not nerfs to current to narrow tactics, I'm not a huge fan of the nerf bat being the answer to everything, it's usually not. ECM has not effected me in my cats on 8 or 4 man drops, and never will
