Dude, think again.

How is the acquisition of an in-game password, and using it to enter a POS as it was designed for... 'metagaming'?
Hmm how do you think that password was acqired? Ingame? Spying is metagaming.
Is it? Only when you lose I think. Besides your little corner of space hasn't even been touched yet. Your tears are almost as precious as Goonswarm's... but not quite as much.
HINT: You can change POS passwords you know.
Hey I hear WoW has PvE servers, you can go sign up.

Personally, I felt kind of bad what happened to the Provi block corps/alliances in D-G tonight. A lot of people on the Provi side got to see the ugly side of Eve, all because of some really bad decisions that happened weeks ago by attacking AAA space. Was it greed or being to ****y? Either way, talk about biting off more than you could chew.
I really hope the "powers to be" within CVA and company pull their heads out and get this aggression with AAA settled. Otherwise, you are going to loose more and more systems, and in the end loose your player base. This is something that I'll bet 80% or more of the Eve community doesn't want to see happen.

Quote: 100/130 kills and 0 losses... i mean, come on that's completely unbeliveable...
It's not that unbelievable when you consider that probably 3/4's of the fleet never loaded grid. Those that were able to had a ridiculous amount of lag; it took me over two and a half minutes to lock the SBU, and a similar amount of time to fire a single shot from my Ferox. You can beat your chest all you want about how you were able to destroy x number of capitals, y number of battleships, etc..., but it's not like it's hard to do when your opponent can't move, shoot, warp, or even see anything on grid (if they can even see anything but a loading screen).
Bear in mind I'm not saying that we'd have won if the conditions were better; I very much doubt we'd have been able to defend against 15 titans, 13 motherships, and lord knows how many carriers/dreadnoughts + whatever you had on standby. However, there would have been more losses on your side, I'm sure.

Heh....I just afk cloaked until I tried to make a break for it through F9E...never jumped in on my side, but apparently I was out a bomber when I logged back in, then my pod shortly after. Thanks CCP! Also, I now have one of those annoying sigs.

I repeat dude, you can't blame the game for not having loaded the grid.. you should have considered before what was going to happen: you decided to commit capitals, what you expected? that we came there with 100 bc's? you had your system loaded etc, you decided to jump out for avoiding to be bumped... you should had planned that in time and avoided to need to use a pos for 30 different alliances...
1/4 of sys-k fleet too never loaded the game after we jumped in after your caps, **** happens this is what happen when the uber blobbing start rolling.

Fleet break down was 330 or so -A-, 210 U'K and 160ish sys-k, yes, clearly, we are insignificant and didn't do a damn thing to help. I'm amazed -A- didn't turn on us tbh for taking up so much room under their skirt.
As for chest beating .. well tbh I think the boys have a right to celebrate, its nice to finally be able to dock in Providence again.
Hmmm, I seem to have got dragged into replying to rubbish on CAOD, I must be in a good mood

Enough.
-A-, U'K, and Sys-K are good sports and fought bravely and with very impressive force. A battle hard won.
Let us be good sports in return.
o7 -A- and friends, see you on the field soon (and hopefully this time I can see more than a black loading screen during the fight )

If I remember correctly, during the Delve Mrk 2, a certain system hit 1700+ people. HOWEVER, I could be wrong. If not, you would be very correct and I'm impressed at the number.

I had fun.
I was my first large fleet engagement. I haven't been playing the game long and the preparation and time to set it up and get into the fight was a lot of fun. It felt epic.
We were cyno'd in and the grid seemed fine with our fleet inside a PoS. We were directed to take our fleet and assist in a SBU takedown. When the grid loaded, the reds warped off and we were directed to begin taking down targets.
I began to lock the first on the list and attempted to launch drones. It took me roughly 3 minutes to lock my first target down and my drones never made it out. Other people in the fleet were able to cycle weapons, however I never got the chance.
Eventually our fleet was able to take out the reds on grid and begin attacking the SBU. I eventually got the SBU targeted and took roughly 5 minutes to lock. My drones weren't out yet so as a low skill Gallente pilot, I really wasn't doing any damage. Sadly, we didn't get the SBU down because a cap fleet warped in on us and we were directed to warp off. At which point I activated my warp drives and preyed.
I made it out safely... and then my client crashed with some kind of EVE memory error (sent the report).
Couldn't load back into game for a few hours when the node finally cooled off.
It was a cool experience to get into a large cap fleet fight like this and was a lot of fun getting setup to fight. However, the final encounter was very disappointing. If only I could have gotten my drones out and participated.
Anyway, GF had a lot of fun. I hope CCP is able to get their servers up to par so that much larger encounters are possible. With the growth of EVE, battles will only become larger, not smaller.

Respect and congrats to -A-, UÆK and Sys-K. They constantly brought impressive fleets, and matched them with the right tactics.
I had the impression over the last week that we wanted to put up a resistance for D-G, gain valuable experience, and if -A- slipped up or let their guard down, possibly save the system.
Once intel came back on the composition of their final fleet, the outcome look apparent. However, I think we wanted to make a showing of it, remove some of them from their ships, get more experience, and mark the fall of the station with a bunch of insured Cap loses.
It is obvious now that jumping out of D-G and back in again sealed the fate of the Providence Cap Fleet. A very nasty lesson learnt. I hope people however can understand the frustration of the effected pilots. It is one thing to accept your fate and jump into likely death, it is entirely another to find your game experience turns out to be a blank screen and later on an insurance payout.

Omal, great attitude! Seriously, I'm glad you liked the big fleet fight, its a real shame that the grid was so locked up for most players on the field. Personally, my Mega's guns were taking anywhere from 30 seconds to 4 minutues to cycle. And forget about even switching ammo on the grid. In the last engagement where Provi lost most of the Dreads, you guys warped in a BS/BC/tackling fleet. My FC was calling targets that never did load on my overview.
In short, big battles can be fun, just not when they are this size with 1600+ in local. Stay positive, have fun, and remember one thing. Eve is just a game, its nothing personal!

I was damn intense fight altho for me the lag was pretty bad. Carniflex got stuck loading the system after titan bridge (that unexcpected DT messed up our plans by approx 40 minutes so we were running behind schedule), fortunately after it was clear that approx 50 guys did not load after bridging Liam was able to get out to the cyno spot and intiate fleet warp towards POS. That saved us many pilots. I could see Carniflex with my other char inside POS but could not do anything with Carniflex. After proviblob capitals jumped out one fleet member yelled that relogging was possible. We did so as fast as we were able altho approx 10 guys got still stuck and did not load until some 4 h or so later (after local dropped enough to be able to relog).
So I would say lag was pretty damn bad, but our side semmed to have more experience dealing with it. All the little things about how to get guns not stuck so often etc etc. I had control over 2 out of 7 guns most of the time with most of them stuck. It was especially bad for one gun I managed to overload by misclick. It did turn off overload barely before buring the gun out, but it got always stuck after first volley until I warped somewhere. My other pilots Scorpion was pretty useless, as after you activated ECM it was stuck until warp. Gun cykle time was 1 to 2 minutes per shot.
From my personal perspective Proviblob put up damn impressive numbers and fleet composition for this one but alas, we had more experience dealing with fights of that scale, some more luck and Providence side seemed to be the warping in side more often than us. I am also impressed by the node ability not to crash in this one.

Id be interested to see the breakdown of red verses blue numbers wise. Im sorry for provi pilots who lost ships without loading system, i think thats a terrible way to die, but at least the losses were insured, and valuable experience gained.
We'll be seeing you guys again very soon im sure. o7 |
