In the dev blog, the link to the dev blog describing the process of creating the wrecks is dead. Has that even been published yet? Proud founder and member of the Belligerent Desirables. |

The first paragraph after 'time Dilation' has a smaller fontsize than the rest of the blog. Is is supposed to be like that? |

Quote:In all that time one kind of ship has always been the most coveted target for any fleet, thirsted after for the glory of defeating it as evidenced by this recording of the first one to die in combat.
You linked a video of the first one to die in combat and its goons killing shrike.
The first to die in combat was Steve in C9N
Quote:On December 11, 2006, at 18:36:00 Band of Brothers destroyed Steve, the first titan ever built in-game, in the C9N-CC system.

Very cool dev blog. I particularly enjoyed the stats. Thanks for keeping the node up and making it all possible, you've really outdone yourselves CCP. |

How many titans are left, if 75 were killed? The total used to get published in the QEN but I don't recall if we have seen a recent number? |

Nice blog for those who are trying to cover the event.
However the simple fact is that even without module lag 10% tidi just isn't fun. I hope you have something planned that's aimed at fixing this, be it multithreading, change in sov mechanics or whatever. Despite the scale of this fight and HED-, neither were fun at all. Maybe it's just that I'm just a bitter vet at this stage, who knows. |

Nope, and you likely won't be seeing numbers like that anytime soon. I'm very much against CCP handing out 100% accurate and important, tactical and economic information to our players about the sandbox. If you want to know how many active titans there are atm, there are plenty of excellent killboards to mine for data! CCP Dolan | Community Representative

On one hand I'm not that interested in which coalition clashes with which other; When I read the tweets on Monday, I shrugged it off (still well aware the implications, mind you).
But during the aftermath, when I can read about such an event even in local (!) news, then I'm pretty proud to be still logging in after all these years.

Will Titanomachy also be placed on Sisi? Im not sure if such monuments get mirrored. Will we have to await a mirror, or will it pop up on the same date? http://vincentoneve.wordpress.com/ |

Would it be possible to see a graph comparing server load compared to HED? A Dogma Lateness Comparison? Or just a technical write up about why the servers did so well this time as compared to HED or previous battles?
I think we (player base) are just pleasantly surprised the node with stood the battle. |

Because there is zero chance that CCP and the null sec cartels want the true explosion in proliferation of supercaps in the game known, due to the blue'ing of null, letting PvE to be industrialized to a level never seen before, and the amount of incredibly rich players that can afford 100 billion ISK losses to explode in quantity as well.
A very few short years ago, 100 billion ISK in assets defined a small to medium sized alliance. Now, we have individual players who replace Titan losses the next day.
These numbers are meaningless unless put in context of the overall supercaps in the game, and no way does CCP want that info to get out, as it trivializes this fight, which it should.
Oh, I also see no mention in this report about the fact that the 2 major protagonists, PL and cfc, have signed an agreement never to attack each other's primary ISK generation systems, which includes most of Eve Sov. This tussle was simply a staged fight, part of the thunderdome suggested by Shadoo months ago, a mechanism for very rich boys to play with very expensive toys.
Small things like that kind of put a damper on any marketing about how important this fight was, right? Most people viewed Orwell's writings as a warning. The harper regime and the goons treat them as a guidebook. |

A long time ago in the Eve galaxy in another life, I had trained Caldari capital ships (it was the only Battleship skill I had at V). I find it interesting though that no Caldari Titans were present. I'd be curious to see what the numbers would be on racial types for the other capital ships. |
