The month long Hulkageddon is the idea of Helicity Boson, not the Goons. LAST years was a month as well.

We should make it a year long. Every year.

You are right, that the mere numbers of "player avatars" residing in high/low sec, are an imprecise indicator for "real player" numbers participating in low/0 sec gameplay.
Maybe we can encourage CSM or CCP to get a better approximation ?

CCP ... idiots.

The month long Hulkageddon is the idea of Helicity Boson, not the Goons. LAST years was a month as well. It was never for one week.

Hulkageddon I 111.10.16 - 111.10.19

Hulkageddon III was July 9th, 2010 through July 18th, 2010.

Hulkageddon IV was "the last week of feb + 1 extra weekend." According to Helicity

was two a month then? Thats the only one I cant find a date for

Indeed correct The cancelled November 2011 H'geddon was to be a month long.

Regardless, it's Helicity's event, not the Goons.

I can clearly see why CCP has "endorsed" both Burn Jita and Hulkageddon.

Let's face it, both add CONTENT which is sorely lacking at this time.

We need ships destroyed on a large scale and all the null-bears are dug into their respective areas like tics and not willing (or able with current sov, blob, hot drop, bridging mechanics) to make any serious headway in null-wars.

So, as I see it, any content is good content.

You people are so obtuse. Even rats know when their ship is sinking.

After the incoming nerfs, I will bump this thread with great glee.

You still seem pretty mad, bro. Perhaps you should go do a victory lap in Jita in your freighter. Be sure to fill it with as much expensive stuff as you can beforehand. That'll show us Goons.

You seem pretty mad, bro. Perhaps you should post some more words. That'll show us.

Nah, best not to feed the trolls, even when they're cute widdle ones like you. :)

Just ban Exhumers from High-Sec and be done with it already. You can then tweak them for proper tanks without making them overshadow mining in High.

I'll admit it would be an interesting 'backlash' - is it a nerf? I'm not so sure. It's certainly in line with CCPs stated goals of getting more industry out to Null.

It would also make Hulkageddon an interesting sport. Suddenly the miners can shoot back.

Sweet jesus, Captain Butthurt strikes again. Are you still harping on about all this?


EDIT: I just realised why you are so butthurt over all this





You rely on the loopholes and flaws in the game don't you? Scams, little "tricks" that few people know about? And then when the Goons or people like them, bring these things to CCP's attention and they get removed, well that just totally messes up your "fun" doesn't it?

If it weren't for them old nasty Goons, you could keep using those little known exploits and a**hole tactics in order to keep feeling superior. Well well well, poor little Captain Butthurt really is hurting now isn't he. And that is the reason for all your anti-goon sentiment. You are a sad and lonely little man, and you have my pity.

You didn't read the recent article from Eurogamer.net didn't you?

CCP has officially condoned the goonswarm attempt to destroy the EVE economy by giving the campaign it's blessing.

As CCP said, they are just going to sit back and watch. That's it. And they will watch with a smile as they eat popcorn.

High Sec Bears will never go to null.

Hulks can fit no turrets or launchers so the comment about miners shooting back is idiotic.

Your knucklehead idea would lose TENS of thousands of subs, and CCP will not want or do that.

Any more game killing ideas ?

Because a Mining Op is always 100% Hulks and never includes combat ships that are PVP fit and ready to defend the ships.

I suppose in Highsec, where after years of bleating at CCP it's somewhat difficult to gank a ship (and even if you are in danger of being ganked, your illegal bot program auto detects this and warps you off) that's true, but in real EVE anyone going it solo like that had better be watching local like a goddaamned hawk or get used to losing ships every few hours.

And you know what: I never quite agreed with the idea of killing "the game," but the more I realize that you guys are playing something other than EVE and trying to force the rest of us to play along, the more eager I am to kill YOUR game.

I'm only gonna grab this one idiotic point here.

THIS DOES NOT WORK. YOU KNOW THIS.

Nah keep exhumers in highsec, it's great seeing some crybaby fit his hulk with 6000 ehp out of greed and then cry crocodile tears when some nobody in a destroyer crumples his paper tank

No dude, having escorts totally prevents alphaganking. All you have to do is fly really close together so your shields merge.

You have no idea what you're talking about.

How about a scout at the gate. You see a bunch of ganking ships warp in, you warn your fleet and they warp the miners out.

In Nullsec, you bubble the gate. Gives you more time to warp out. Maybe a scout a gate out as well.
