I'm not sure about what it really means.
But how does is that perhaps a primer for any kind of industrial buff? I know Chronotis(I love that guy) have been discussing quite a bit about the economy. Maybe something big is about to happen?
Please tell me it is, Ginger .

And i thought it was kinda obvious one of them would be assasinated by a sniper. Guess i was wrong, it was an explosion. Cant say i am really surprised, the empires are supposed to start a war, being nice to each other isnt going to start a war.

Edited by: CaptainSeafort on 15/05/2008 12:59:10 I hate to be negative, but that was the most underwhelming EVE video I've seen. It was all good apart from the collision and explosion...the graphics and physics of that were painful. ='(

Not trying to step on anyones toes. Just wondering why all of a sudden roleplay content is being posted on general discussion.
Mainly asking because I'm keen on preserve the integrity of the game since I feel that this expansion is a shift towards a more NPC-centered gameexperience and a threat to what we've defined Eve as up to now.
Edit: I wouldn't want me posting this either if I loved roleplay.

Ah. I don't really see why this is such a problem. But if you're lucky, maybe CCP will remove all reference to the Eve backstory, player races and so on when the launch the next expansion. I can see it now...
Quote: Coming soon, in the expansion that comes in the middle of 2008: war between four groups of players. Will you support group 1, 2, 3, or 4? Revel as combat is simulated in a way that hasn't been done in this game before. Thrill as you get to explore new areas of the simulation. Will the group you support get virtual control of an imaginary space? Only you, the subscription payers, can decide.

Informing about new gamemechanics and posting a story that justifies/explains it isn't the same thing. These fairytales about the different factions aren't information about the expansion but merely roleplay fluff to explain it and thus it belongs in the roleplay forum.

Not to be morbid, but since it was a Station being slammed by a Nyx, the whole should be renamed Styx...
...with the intended imagery using such a name. The flow of the river (collision) leading to damnation for all (war).

Now, was I asking a legitimate question or was I "shooting down" the thread?
If you think I was wrong then explain why and try to convince me of that. Don't start of by posting personal insults like a five year old.
It is people like you, with impaired capabilities of reasoning and inability to refrain from insulting others, who set the lower limit on these forums. Not people who asks valid questions and who takes the time to put forth sound arguments for their cause.

What makes you think this is going to lead to a flood of stickies on random topics all of a sudden.
Ignoring that I think it is perfectly reasonable to draw peoples attention to something that people might find interesting, even if they are not into the "hard core" RP stuff most of the time. I certainly did.
Edit: Oh and cool video, looking forward to more stuff!

Don't get me wrong, the video is gorgeous and I'd love if CCP made more of these to introduce other stuff into the game.
I am however alarmed by the nature of this expansion and to where it is leading Eve... not to mention the lack of a response from the rest of the playerbase. Therefore I asked why this thread with obvious and exclusive roleplay content was posted on General Forum as I don't believe that has been the norm before.

well, i consider my five years of cognitive development well and truly berated.
i don't see you putting forth a sound argument for your cause - you're just whining that the factional warfare build up is strictly rp and should appear in that forum - and to what end? so you can be known as "the guy on the forum what made ccp move their thread i am"...?
i think factional warfare has slightly more far-reaching consequences for all players than who the next amarr emperor is going to be/has been/could never be.
and therefore, you are just whining for the sake of it.
oh, and this doesn't mean i hope you don't die - in a strict rp-sense, au naturel.

Well, if you're not having difficulties understanding english the you should've noticed that I never claimed to believe that the FW build is solely RP-based but that this thread is. I hope, for your own sake, that you don't fail to realize this and how it makes your accusation of me whining about it moot.

Am am not supposed to respond to his arguments which was based on false (deliberate or not)interpretation of my post which altered the meaning of it?
Not once did I say what he claimed I said. I should just pretent that I said it just because he says so? I'm sorry but that just don't fly.

I'm in love with that vid, we need more of that kinky stuff! Nice way to bring back some background story into eve again. But, it's kinda late, people are already used to labelling eve the new "CS in space" All kidding aside, I hope the Empyrian Age will bring some long forgotten elements (story driven events, anyone?) back to the game.

You do realize you're playing a roleplaying game, right? Don't get me wrong, I'm not a RPer myself and I'm not sure how much I'll be involved with factional warfare, but it looks to me like CCP intends to kick the RP aspect up a notch (BAM!) in some core gameplay, which you and I may, unavoidably, both be a part of. --------

As it is influencing the general public, it is right to have a thread about it in general forum. CAOD would be wrong, not General.
Let's say CCP decide to change all the agents to a variable quality system where as they give more missions they degrade in quality. You think it should be commented only in the mission forum? or you feel it is right to be commented even in General forum as the ramifications of the change will influence the general public, even those that don't do missions?

Originally by: Venkul Mul As it is influencing the general public, it is right to have a thread about it in general forum. CAOD would be wrong, not General.
Factional warfare the expansion influences the average player. This thread contains nothing but factional warfare stories, nothing about the expansion per se.
Originally by: Venkul Mul
Let's say CCP decide to change all the agents to a variable quality system where as they give more missions they degrade in quality. You think it should be commented only in the mission forum? or you feel it is right to be commented even in General forum as the ramifications of the change will influence the general public, even those that don't do missions?
Are CCP announcing any gamechanges that haven't been made public before in this thread? Are they even mentioning any gamechanges in this thread? Have they revealed any information at all that doesn't somehow involves roleplay in this thread?

this is a role play of sorts i guess but it will involve evryone so its a bit more then a small role play for people.

I think we've established by now that you'd rather they announced factional warfare by saying "We've made a mechanic for small-gang PvP. There's an in-character backstory to this, but we didn't want to bother you with it. You can read it in the intergalactic summit and events forums."
CCP always have backstory to explain major game changes. Okay, yes, they normally introduce this in news items rather than in the general discussion forum. Maybe they didn't realise how offended some people would be to be reminded that there's a fairly deep fictional background behind the game.
I'm still baffled why you have this irrational dislike of a Dev bringing the background to factional warfare into general. Were you bitten by a roleplayer as a child?

So, what is it about factional warfare that you don't like? And as for the roleplay aspect, it is my experience that this is the only online game where you don't really have to roleplay in order to properly roleplay your character; everything you do in the game is "in character" after all.

I'll make a post about it if I think it's necessary. The last audio devblog made me less nervous tbh. Still not a direction I like Eve to take.

I am freakin excited over FW, and I love videos like this that build up to it. I'd consider this RP-Lite and perfect for people like me that are interested in the upcoming expansion but not enough to enter the sacred RP forum.
What would happen if a Titan ran into a station? Think it would survive? By the way, I really wish there was a way to tell where a post ends and a signature starts. |

Gallente being painted as evil, AGAIN?
Ham-handed kludge using a noted advocate for peace He has since become a spokesman for improving the relationship between the two nations, undoubtedly selected for this summit because of his years of advocating peace. as a kamikaze carrier pilot?
news stories painting gallente as all manner of terrorist and xenophobes?
Why not just say "and then all the evil Gallente cackled before they jumped back on their brooms and flew away"?

Because you guys keep crashing things into other things? It appears to me that you Gallente just crashed a Nyx into a station. How is that not evil? Are you going to call yourselves freedom fighters now?
The Caldari are just trying to make money, Minmatar are fighting to end slavery, Amarr are doing God's work, and you complain about being called evil when you crash a Nyx into a station? Jeez, the nerve of some people... By the way, I really wish there was a way to tell where a post ends and a signature starts. |

Does anyone know what happened to Otro Gariushi (or indeed any other of the key delegation members) who were at the conference? I didn't notice anything about their survival in the articles myself. Otro Gariushi is a pretty big character in the history of EVE, aside from being the CEO of Ishukone he even features as a central figure in one of the EVE Online Novella, titled "Ruthless". I'd be sad to find out he has finally been whacked.
EDIT: Although this statement from Jeanna Kishuo, and Ishukone official: "there's no proper chain of command right now - everyone's doing everything they can but we can't get access to the Corporation's general funds because there's nobody around who can authorize it." in one of the more recent news updates of the situation doesn't bode too well, I imagine.

Well, my guess is that since you can't have cloning without a ton of hardware and there aren't teleporters and it only takes a Nyx a good half hour to turn around to crash into a station, probably everyone at the conference was either killed or trapped on the station with no communications to authenticate themselves to approve fund disbursements. Kind of like what happens when the CEO and all directors just quit in-game, leaving the corp wallet visible to all the Junior Accountants but unable to do anything with it.
Except there are no GMs for the NPCs to call, and even if they did I hear there's a pretty lengthy time (like weeks) that you have to wait before they respond to the petition by which time everyone's left because nobody can assign roles or hire.
Sucks to be Ishukone, they should just pony up the fee to start a new corporation if they can't touch their assets. Coming and whining about it on the Eve-O website probably won't do them any good, it's full of trolls and haters these days.

All i can say is I was hoping to get more info. Instead i see OMG A RP IN A MMORPG!
Its a game theres a backstory and so they added some content thru the use of story. Most games do have some sort of story. It gives the game direction.
So if your playing this game just to play it great have atit. but some do like the fact they use this sort of implementation.

For the person who was asking, it's been confirmed that Otro got killed, and his clones were in the station that got rammed. Bit sad to see him go too, as he was one of my favourite backstory characters. ___ "If you can't debate using logic & fact, and at least recognise other people's point of view, don't waste time posting on forums.

Originally by: DJTheBaron The Gallente, are a race who would free the Minmitar slave with one hand but maim Caldari women and children with the other. With this heinous and unprovoked attack against a civilian and commercial station, in our sovereign space. We will not endure this massacre unchallenged.
This day we remember those fallen during the siege of Caldari Prime, we remember those Caldari families, those millions who were exterminated in their own homes on their sovereign lands by this Gallente menace, we remember the sacrifices made by those who gave their last breath for their people and we honour the legacy of Tovil-Toba.
We will never forget, and we will never forgive.
We will return to Caldari Prime, crushing Gallente ash under foot. On our return we shall find a new sun in our sky, as fires rage on what was once known as Gallente Prime. For a time at least, for as its light fades, as will the last remnants of the Gallente scourge..
