From my perspective as a grunt fighting on the CVA side, it was mostly frustrating. I constantly felt like I was on the verge of a really fun fleet fight (something I'd never done or even seen before, having newly migrated to 0.0)...but I'd spend the whole thing staring at the loading screen, or load but my guns wouldn't work, or load with working guns and targeting didn't work. I don't mind dying, I don't like losing but accept that it's a fact of life in 0.0 sometimes, but it sucks to not even get in on the pew-pews because of server issues.
Personal highlights from the Battle of D-G: seeing a Titan up close for the first time, cyno-jumping into a hostile system, and seeing a fleet of 17 carriers up close from my pod. The frantic escape from the system just minutes before the jump bridge failed was exciting, too.
As for the overall battle: Provibloc pilots need to dry their tears. We got our butts sawed off and handed to us because -A- fought better. Period, no excuses. Crying on the forums about lag or blobs or "AAA pets" is just acting like a sore loser. If you don't want to hear AAA pilots talking smack, then you and me and everyone else in Provibloc needs to be better next time. GF to -A-.
Completely agreed. Time for some in-character dialogue:
Props to -a- and UK for their success. You have bested us on equal terms, and our defeat is only ours to blame.
We Provibloc can rebuild, rearm, and muster our forces again. This disaster has been our Battle of Cannae. Losses are great, but it will only allow us to bring out the most noble of courage in defense of our Empire. Not only will we not give up, but our resolve will be stronger than ever.
"Our women shall only mourne in private, no tears will be shed in public, all able bodied soldiers shall march forth to battle."
I for one am planning on putting in all I have for defense of Providence and beyond. My battleships will be ready to meet you with plenty of replacements, and will fight until I spend my last iskies and replenish them with GTCs to keep what I have built so far in providence. Providence is my home, and we shall fight no matter what.
