issues with ground pvp

Ok... just saying, anything feeling a little out of touch? Sure you saw ships flying all over, and mostly in DS9 fighting scenes in space, but other than that stuff was done on the ground, even if inside ships. So why is it the least popular? People complain of stuff being too OP In ground. Just saying. Really. So people vaping cruisers in cell ships or shuttles isn't OP? Elachi dbbs with bo3 hitting 90k isnt OP? Fawdemeptw3 Marion cruisers aren't op, being able to destroy a ships hull while keeping it's shields up isn't OP? Just saying that is a incredibly lame excuse. So let's try the its cheesy excuse... space... even with full points In power insulator a Sci drain ship can co.pletely drain all my power systems and just shoot me to death, and I can't do TRIBBLE about it. Eptw? Core capacitator? None of those bring anything back online for 2-3 secs. ok and how about subspace circuit, or graviton pulse, or a vesta activating quantum focused bubble with the activated with Voth doff so you lose half a dreadnought hp in the matter of seconds. Just saying. The only reason people hate ground is Cuz they go into ground arena or assault and get 1 - shotted by tactical with lungecloak, or engi with mines and stasis pistol/ ophidian cane or scis that cover you in a purple bubble so you get so laggy you have no clue what you're doing and either die or get lagged out of the game. It's kinda scary seeing how my caitan fed which is only t1 all reps can utterly destroy a team of 3 lvl 50's all at t5 reps with ease. That is how bad it is. Just a notice to you all :P

Those fish are much like their masters, filthy backstabbers... All battlecloaked fish, waiting for the right moment...

many times its been proven in pvp queues other races are just as deadly as caitians it doesn't make a huge difference as any alien human klingon romulan etc can easily fight and do better its all about personal skill you can place a caitian and any other career head to head same gear traits rep it comes right down to who is a better player
This. Sure cats can kill peeps. But I could also just as easily hop on my Romulan and still kill people in ground.
Barf Thanks You.
Pretty much this.
Caitians are fine in comparison. Never had major problems with(against) them.

Melee? This is so 2013.
The main issue with Ground PvP in general is that there are a few people who like to gank'n'grief players who are new to ground.
Well, there are a few more overpowered things at the moment:
Mine Barrier and Lunge may be fixed by reducing the damage output or reducing the shield bypassing damage. Subspace manipulator may be fixed by reducing the trait version of dampening field to 15 seconds and removing the multiple trait stack effect. Food may be fixed by limiting the food stacking to a single type. If they don't let us stack tribbles, then we shouldn't be able to stack food either. Cats may be fixed by removing the ability to shoot while jumping, adding a 2 second delay before the run +75% dodge bonus kicks in, and revamping the Shanty Town map to remove exploitable terrain/opening the map to all races.

Yes, cats are OP, yes mines are a bit op and also lounge.. but hell, is perfect if we think about Space.

Agreed, Ground PvP is in a lot better shape compared to Space PvP at the moment.

The biggest problem is that the population is soooo low, that you can play maybe 1 or 2 games in the hole nigth.

I acknowledge those issues, but personally i haven't witnessed a OneHitLungeKill in a couple of months. I suffered none. Same for PulseWaveOneShotKills. I guess they are getting countered a lot by Reputation Auto Heals and Fleet Equipment at the moment.
On the other hand there aren't a lot of Operative Cats left in the game as far i recognize it at the moment. Funnily it was a Premade Fleet that complained about Cats in Ground PvP a few weeks ago here on the forum, that is running 50% Cats these days on their own teams.
For many issues that are up to date it is all about who uses them and who doesn't. It is only a small group of people who really uses Black Bubbles, Massive Chain Rooting, and other broken stuff on a regular basis these days. Concerning Food Stacking only one name comes to my mind, and this particular person massively overestimates himself.
As a conclusion it is more or less a question if new players who join Ground PvP run into a group of players who use broken or unbalanced stuff or if they meet the vast majority of players who don't.
There are issues but a vast majority of the players came to an understanding that several things in Ground PvP shouldn't be used.
This for example is relatively out of date. You won't see regular players using stasis pistols these days. And Mines + Cane seems to become unusual as well. Most people use the Ophidiae as a decloaking mechanism.
Nonetheless there still is the potential to apply them in these ways.
The problem is there a few people who deliberately prevent new players from getting a foot in the door.
For sure, there are overpowered things like mines and other stuff, but I am pretty sure, that ground pvp can be fun in a friendly atmosphere. People just need to calm down and remember, that this is a game, and that we are here to have fun. And maybe the people who have so much trouble with each other could just meet in Drozana and talk that out with some nice Romulan Ale.
Well that certain fleet kill all the fun with their constant pug stomping.They know very good that there is no any other premade on ground in the moment and if they really hate that much playing togeher with anyone that is not in their fleet they should atlest split in 2 teams and give other people who enjoy ground pvp a fighting chance.
HMMM
One shot lunge still very doable but still easy to counter with the proper gear and a good roll.
Glad it's not me I have been known to q on tier zero rep with TRIBBLE gear while everyone else holds their toons till they are fully repped up and geared up But the ability to stack foods is not broken. The easy solution is well go out and freaking buy some DUH! LOL.
I can't remember the last time chain rooting from 2 fuse armor ever led to me getting killed but maybe it's cause I carry sure footed and have expert timing on how to get out of those messes. Black holes not op if you know what you are doing. It's funny I am one of the few people in this game that doesn't have issues with what some people are calling op bs. Why do you all have issues with it all while it never gets me killed? Am I the only one around doing it right?

Not really I am basically just calling it exactly as it is. Certain things that are labeled as op in reality are very counter able. Most of the QQ comes from tacts cause they fail to adapt to the game and are pissed that they can't one shot anything anymore. This is coming from a heavy tact player here too!
Listen cupcake all you have ever done is hide behind your premade both in fs and fleet command germany. You never once have been able to dent me without any form of help. You wanna go 1 on 1 cupcake or hide behind your premade? Until you can reach my level keep your mouth shut noob end of story! Everyone not in fs knows your a total noob anyway! :0
I would not say the egos. As it has been revealed to me, there are mentally ill players on ground, but their issues are no more if Cryptic shall bring no premade que on ground.
