I'm about as big a carebear as they come, and I think the "Jita Burns" event was a fantastic opportunity to see some very pretty lights. Moreover, the "time dilation" feature is pretty freaking amazing. I took a bunch of pictures with a little Sebiestor parked in a noob ship. Any ship in the foreground that is not a noob ship is not me.
The Drake and the Abaddon featured in several images took *insane* punishment. Pretty much every Abaddon that undocked shot at that Drake, and it lasted plenty long. Ultimately, however, the Drake popped and I believe the Abaddon I was watching survived.

Thank you. I was a bit surprised by the freighters at first, too, but I didn't see any of them get attacked. The charon image was one of the last ones I was around for, and I think it really is an example of the game's visual appeal at its best:
Charon
That freighter just looks magnificent, there. |

Certainly they could have been. The ones that I saw during my time in the event, however, were orienting to jump out of the system. The Charon in the image above has completed its turn toward the gate (another in the background is preparing to make the turn). No freighters that I saw waited around to loot - and there were so many salvagers present, I dare say a freighter's worth of cargo would have been carried off by the swarm in the blink of an eye anyway.
Really, it didn't seem to me that GoonSwarm was actually out to cause all that much harm. |

It's neat to see the fleets in formation like that. By the time I made it there, everything was of course very jumbled. I almost got the DrakeSwarm, but it started to break up just as I arrived. Those rectangles reminded me of the monoliths in one of the 2001 movies.
When the (I believe Orphanage) Abaddons emerged from the station, that also felt very cool - but large groups of ships don't really come out of stations in a photogenic way.

Strength isnt measured in numbers but in force of will. For if one motived willful individual stands many will fall around him that are weak.

I was in the thick of it, and Jita was severely gimped. I consider this a successful demonstration of capability. Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing. |

At first, I was certain someone would set off a smart bomb and obliterate my Reaper (using the "look at" feature from a safe distance only works so well, because the target doesn't stay put). But once it became clear that wasn't very likely to happen, the freighters became the best part of the whole thing.
It was like being inside the tank of "that video" at a Japanese aquarium with the awesome, relaxing soundtrack.
The freighters became remarkably graceful and calm counterpoints to everything else going on. None of them were attacked (that I saw). The Charon is probably the overall favorite shot I've taken in the game, ever, but this "cute little" Obelisk peeking in from the corner, while a couple of Tornados fly in formation and a battleship points itself so perfectly at at the camera it becomes Darth Vader's fighter, is also fun:
Hello! Don't mind me, I'm just a big old freighter.
My expectations for the event were that it would fizzle, but it neither fizzled nor seemed to cause any "vicious" harm to Jita. It was a extremely very fun live event that showed off many of the game's best features - including the technical chops of the time dilation team (without which, the servers would almost certainly have come crashing down). |

Mostly cause it's a bunch of buttmad pubbie attention whores who want to talk about the Jita burning but can't stand the idea that their post isn't the OP, and in general they're not adding ANYTHING to the discourse other than "Goons are Meanies" (and we already knew that).

Can some of you guys get some really good HD pics (1080P res) and possibly throw up your AA settings to max? I know it may be asking to toast some lesser comps, but as I am rebuilding mine right now and also cannot view/play eve at work (working on that) I cannot get any snapshots of the carnage myself. :(
There are some great shots to be made into backgrounds, I just don't like putting a 1280/1024 background on a 1080P Screen  If I helped you out, Technical Issue,-áenemy gank, popped your poor fit,-áhit the "Like" button. |
