A very big fleet fight happend some days ago. The 'NC' jumping a large fleet into a smaller fleet. This resulted in the NC loosing 6 titans (and a alot of caps). The destruction was possible because the NC caused too much lag for themselfs.
The next day this screenshot was posted. Large portion of their fleet was found floating in space including most of their titans. Also the 'NC' confirmed they got some ships back including a titan.
I ask for a senior GM to look into this and give a public reply on the matter. This doens't feel right. I am sure I aint the only one. I really hope CCP does the right thing and/or atleast give a reply on the matter.
Thx in advance

Did you guys inform CCP ahead of time so they could ensure the lag was not this bad?
If not.....you ain't gonna get diddly squat!

I am only asking for a GM to look into the matter and do the right thing, whatever CCP think its the right thing. If this matter will not be investigated it will create a nasty precedent for future fleet engagements. I am sure I ain't the only one waiting for CCP to give an official reply on the matter.
Don't forget the killmails were send to the killers, I believe the losses where also posted on the EVE website by ISD. How can it be the ships are found floating in space? How can the ship be killed and reappear the next day?

Preferential treatment?
I've barely made it out myself on a lag fest in my capital's, made the jump, but was black-screened for hours on end. Tried to log-off and back on, nothing. Eventually, when I could log on, I was still in my capital in an emergency safe spot in the system I jumped out to.
If this is indeed true, then there is no doubt that the NC ***s got some GM/Dev loving. I'm not a fan of PL, but fair is fair, PL should get their Titans replaced as well. And, where does CCP draw the line? I've lost ships to lag, ships that blew up after I got to a safe POS, 20 minutes after the engagement, as many people have witnessed for themselves. Shouldn't I have my ships replaced then too after this "new" ruling?
Its pretty simple really. CCP knows their game is broken, they change the rules on the fly, and yet we continue to pay to play. Who are the real losers here? Yeah, step slowly back away from the mirror m8's...

Word on the street is in very high lag situations "ghost ships" can appear after the battle.
These ships are supposidly boardable and have negative armor.
Maybe this isn't the same thing though.

Yes CCP were notified in advance for node reinforcement. It's because CCP had already confirmed "Something is very wrong, we're working to fix it asap!" so the "Our logs show nothing" couldn't reasonably be applied in this instance. Thems the breaks!

that happened to me recently. I suddenly lost my ship through all 4600 of its effective HP, when I was taking no damage at all before from a gas cloud and just running to the gate to activate it. yes all of the sudd my ship is gone, and this is just a mission where noone else eve nshot at me and it was ambient damage that did it, and I know I wasnt lagging. no damage indications came up on screeen, just put-put-put-INSTADEAD. was really bull****. yet Im not reimbursed for that.

A clarification about that would be good.
Especially since a CSM member is involved.
That CSM member said that some other people scooped several of those ghostships also but a petition made a GM giving back those ships to the 'rightful' owners, all within 1 or 2 hours.
So yes CCP, please clarify that. |

And what with those ships and capitals these titans did kill during the battle? And with other (super)capital kills during heavy lag and in bugged systems?
Will they get replaced too?

This indeed needs clarification.
If this is true, it will kill fleet fights since nobody bothers to fight when ships magically reappear after fights.
Althought I'll vote for bad troll, but it would be really nice to have response from CCP on this.

So CCP do what they think is the right thing, now you want them to do the right thing?
Why don't you just say what you want them to do, then they can get right on it.

I have a feeling u like taunting babies with candy. There's 1, repeat 1, frigate in the T1 lineup designed to be a suicide tackler. the rest are for COMBAT. so don't tell me to tackle when I'm in a combat T1 frig. OR tell CCP to fix their mess. |

word on the grapevine is that it's some sort of accidental duping, which I'm inclined to believe simply because several successful fleet fight reimbursements (which afaik were to be totally denied) for supercaps in a few hours is pretty much unpossible.
according to the NC, a number of their supercaps in question had jumped out (lost fuel and cap from jumping) under fire, but never disappeared from the laggy system in question...thus resulting in them dying.
The day after, the capitals were found floating in space near their old jump-in locations and grabbed by the NC and a few others. I'd bet the jumpin/jumpout routine got stuck somehow from the lag and didn't complete until something gets cleaned out at downtime and...poof, ship reappears. Magic. _____________________ Horrors!

Interesting, hope to hear from ccp what happened here and how they will deal with it. I'm sure it will be lots of drama whatever route they chose, but deleting the jesus titans might be the more reasonable, after all these years of denying any ship reimbursements from combat zones.

fun story: nobody gives a ****. Its the GD forums: discuss something that the general public gives a damn about. Take your alliance drivel out to coad, or better, private forums.
Once youve done that, remember that CCP does not make a policy of giving a damn about things posted in GD. If you want something answered, PETITION IT. If you want something answered quickly, too ****ing bad. The forums isnt the right place for this anyway.

The GM's talk on the forums if it is important enough. I think this IS important.
People getting supercapitals back, keeping the insurance money. CSM members getting premium GM service in form of 1-2 hour fast petitions without needing to wait. At least that is what the forums say.
It would be very nice if a GM could confirm that these are wrong rumours and not true.
Write a petition to the GMs? Should the GM's be bombarded with hundreds of petitions about the same issue? It is really much easier if they could come forward and saying that such a thing didn't happen.
After all, we are talking about 500 bil isk. And if you buy GTC for that, it is a value of $25.000
I am pretty sure that this IS of general interest. |

Fail response.
1. You failed to lock the thread for "discussing accusations of EULA-breach."
2. You failed to grasp the logic of this post - that GMs/devs/CSM/CCP cannot be trusted. If the OP is correct, then a petition would simply be ignored.
Your reply simply fuels speculations.
the proper response could be:
"as we have already told you on the in-game news, six titans and severeal other capitals were lost. if any of those were 're-boarded' due to a technical glitch, then the ships in question will be removed (as they are registered as gone.)"
"we would also like to remind all players that, as a general rule, we do NOT replace ships lost in 'fleet battles.' This policy serves the purpose of avoiding rampant speculations and rumours of favouritism."

Fail response tbh from you.
Hes not accusing of eula breaches but he thinks there is something not right and want someone to look into it.
And for your "propper" responses:
CCP did not tell anyone about the six titans .. but ISN did which is an independand not CCP funded news organisation.
CCP Adida's response was correct. Devs do not enforce the ingame policies .. GM's do. CCP Adida clearly stated the propper way to request an investigation which is what the op wanted.

CCP should clarify this. Rules must be equal for everyone.
While it's clear that lag cannot be considered a game mechanic, it does not make sense to reimburse all lag related losses.
Maybe, fixing the lag generating gameplay would help with this kind of problems.

If you want to create a terrible whine, at least be consistent with facts.
What happened was, that ships that jumped out of the system in question, had fuel and cap removed and appeared in their new system, reappeared in the system they jumped out of after their pilots logged off. There they died, then respawned in the systems they jumped out to unpiloted.
The same bug has been reported several times since Dominion hit. CCP did nothing. The only thing that was different here, was that supercaps got killed and respawned. It already happened to dreads and carriers in y-2ano, p-2ttl and possibly dg-

Actually they never tried to jump out, not all anyway they were in that system to defend a PoS thats the reason they were there anyway knowing that it was a trap and lag worked against them THIS TIME, they tried to cyno out but failed.
See NCs strategy is to get everyone their alts and trial noob ships into a system to crash it, once the system is crashed they hope to log in FIRST and kill everything, it has been a known strategy that has been practiced by Goons and I guess PL too.
This backfired and instead of the node crashing NC lagged out and died -- Emo TraderJohn's Number 1 Fan!! |

Not seeing the problem either. Please continue. Too many titans in this game anyway.
Maybe that some of the destroyed ships (titans) showed up in space and the pilots that lost them gained the insurance isk. This obviously isn't unique to the NC, but should still be zapped.

You sure it even matters since the insurance changes? They probably got like 1 isk back.

In the greater scheme of Eve's economy no, but for principle yes. If you don't lose the ship you shouldn't get the insurance payout.

Edited by: Vhaine Vhindiscar on 18/06/2010 16:39:08 Dead ships respawns, some find their way home, some don't. Free ships ftw.
Dead ships drop high value mods...which turn into isk for the looters.
Dead ships generate insurance payments.
Can you salvage a titan wreck? What's that like...
The whole thing reminds me of any electronics store 30 seconds after a riot breaks out. The issue needs to be top priority for ccp. It undermines the entire game. The fact that it was high profile THIS time is pointless. That it's been going on before and nobody noticed or failed to act...most unfortunate.
HOW long until someone figures out a way to turn this into a dup exploit? Has it happened already? Will it be happening by this weekend. You tell me...a chance to dup titans for insurance. I bet alot of people are gonna be all over that.

I am currently arguing the case for having lost a single ship carrying a few billion in stuff, I lost the ship due to a black screen and am getting the 'our logs dont show' spiel, and also that unless it is 100% proven that it is ccps fault then no you cant have anything back..
Now if NC get hundreds of billions of isk back, I will not be a happy chappy... Are the guys from that fight in H-W going to get their stuff back from the lagfest that happened on that 'reinforced node system'?
Trust me, I almost know what I'm doing. |

Some people petitioned the GMs because they received insurance ISK and retained the capital after it was killed in Y-2. From what I was told, they removed the capital, and left the insurance ISK (which was significant at the time since a lot of people had plat insurance). After that everyone else pretty much kept their mouth shut, so who knows if CCP checked for free ISK or capitals after that.
The problem is most likely related to caching information causing conflicts when the TQ database is actually updated. I think they changed how they cache node actions for, or slightly prior to Dominion. If someone can figure it out you could probably dupe a ton of **** since it is evident that actions are not longer updated in the database in real-time. This is probably why a node death causes a roll-back as of Dominion, since the node database cache stored in memory is lost.

Come on how many years have we heard the same ole song ?
CCP should admit there game cannot support large 0.0 fleet battles, and stop using silly PR tactics of fancy trailers and videos.
As said time and time again large 0.0 fleet battles look great on paper and watching them on video, but the fact of the matter is in real time game play they don't work and probably never will.
Not saying its 100% of the blame goes to CCP since there are a lot of other factors that they have no control over, my point is, stop will the fancy PR that gives people the impression you can have a lag free battle with hundreds of people all in the same system.

The simple fact is the game is so broken right now they shouldn't even be charging subscription fees until its fixed.
We have endless test server events where we try to help CCP and function as volunteer Q&A, recieve no updates on how the search is going, continue to get expansions that release more useless content that increases the stress on the servers and breaks the game and have a worthless GM reimbursement policy where the tools that they should be able to analyse DO NOT WORK.

Actually it sounds like they were not "revived" after being killed. But that they got duplicated on jumping out.
Not taking any sides in the Northern Crusade, I would say it's ****ing sad if these ships will be removed, as there is no way one can justify the loss of titans already jumped out of system.
Too many times I have lost ships due to lag and server crashes.
It's time for CCP to accept responsibility and start reimbursing ships killed due to server crash/bugs.

every time a few ships die in a system and the servers can detect irregularities* every ship in the system friend/foe/or neutral that got killed with in 60 minutes should get a full isk refund along valuation lines like kbs (but more accurate using ccp's better data on average sales prices).
Would this mean lots of fighting would be meaningless? when there is lag fighting is meaningless.
I'm actually more ****ed off about the stuff that went wrong for the sc in h-w than this recent one which was a gratiutus piece of crap where people knowing the sysem wasn't working and with no pressing tactical need risked their fleets to computer failure... but still only accross the board reimbursments and even better timer roll backs will make the hard decisions be made.
maybe we need to remove drones and warp jammers and bombs and damage mutiplier based on relative velocity... I hope not.. but if you can't make competiion robust.. no sense having it at all.
AND.. only this sort of drastic measure would bump the issue up to a high enough priortiy where 1/3rd of the programmers and developers would put their heads to it every day unitl it is fixed.
As it is now they shrug their shoulders and think there are winners and losers sometimes and it often even's out but people shoulda known better... But thats a load of crap in that, in that we're being denied epic fights with thousands of mean and women communicating online spread throughout the world wording in groups of 50's and 100's with different roles.. etc...
We're being denied struggles over soverignity that takes weeks and months that will be based upon the quality of the ships and the tactical maniupulations of flying the ships.. using their mods.. maxing relative resitss....having prepared fitttings specific safe spots.. etc... the largest strategy comes down to gaming whether or not a fleet will load...and a bit of a role of a dice on the odds that it will or won't... making all the beutuiful stuff irrelevent.
...irevelvent especially in the longer-burn mutly week struggles where almost inveitable the most pivotal battle will be the time where one sides fleet or the other couldn not respond...
(and the client should have code a feedback loop so they can tell the difference between most logoffsi's and when a client can respond in some manners (chat? market?) but not others.)

Thought i would just drop in and call this quoted guy "Luke S" a stupid ****ing idiot who knows nothing about this fight. It was a reinforced node, the directorate of several NC alliances petitioned the whole dam constellation to be reinforced.

"NC blobbed too much and deserved to lose, yadda yadda yadda." 
First, they were ambushed by another supercap blob. But that's irrelevant.
Over all this time pretty much all big sov holding alliances have had fleets disappear to lagmosner, and always we have people who get to post the shiny killmails gloat and ignore that game is broken. And then x months later they lose a blackscreened fleet and everyone else just laughs.
Poor hamsters are coughing blood and seeing double, and what will happen when some other alliance gets a cap fleet that both successfully disengaged and jumped away, and remained there and died. The age of Schroedinger fleets.

So, ccp gm says no ships were returned. Personally, I think ccp is lying to cover thier butts for the few ships they had to reimburse. Just so they don't have to do thier jobs and go through all the logs(that always show nothing btw) for all the battles. Wonder if I can get my cash back for false advertising? Gonna contact an attorney and find out if I have a case.
CCP can expect some phone calls soon. --

If you want to help out, please prepare a client some days before the mass-testing is going to happen. Trying to fix a client 10 min before its gonna happen will not work ;)
It's even fun to do all stuff is 100 isk, so imagen the pew pew thats going on . For the empire dwellers this gives a nice peak into 0.0 warfare without the need to join a 0.0 alliance.

The question should be: Were the titans cynoed out of system by players.
If the answer is yes, then let the titans stay in game.
If they managed to exploit out after being tackled or w/e. then remove the titans.

Perhaps CCP should make it policy to publicly state all supercapital reimbursements in a convenient thread to end the speculation and frustration.

fine the SCs jumped out, so what about all the ppl who spent time shooting the "SCs that jumped out" and subsequently lose their ships in the process? will they all get their ships refunded for shooting at a target that wasnt even supposed to be there? and wasting their time and money trying to take down titans that were already out of system? doesnt seem fair to the people who set the trap and risked their ships and assets to kill ships that were not there.

Actually, anyone involved in such a fight should be reimbursed. If ccp can't even support fights that were previously absolutely no problem, they should reimburse everyone and reset everything. The Atlas titan that blackscreened, all the fleets that got slaughtered when they jumped into an outnumbered enemy fleet, everyone.
And this is probably also why gms openly declared not to offer any customer support for 0.0 players involved in pvp..

Are the 6 titans still in game despite being destroyed earlier? Were they at least put into custody for the time of the investigation?

The really silly thing is that those ghost ships have gotten or been involved in getting a bunch of kills. So even if by some miracle, CCP decided to take them back, which i'm almost positive now, they won't, it will lead to more confusion and frustration from those who have lost ships to this epic fail by CCP.

CCP has always maintained no reimbursements policy for large fleet fights. they are taking a hands off approach because as many have pointed out if they where to start making adjustments after the fact like reimbursements or removing the duplicate loot, or removing the duplicate ships they would have a cascading mess.
unfortunately the answer is, lag happened, stuff got weird, they're trying to help if from happening again, but what is is is.

Which explains the titan PL got reimbursed and the way the majority of lost NC capitals magically respawn.
While none of this happens to people hostile to you, to me it just looks like a smarter version of T20 aligned with the north.

Oh yes, suuuuuuure.
The normal procedure though is to remove the stuff from game as soon as some irregularities are known and then invest it. And when investigation is finished and conclusion is that all is okay, then the items are released and given back.
Not this time. This time it is SIX titans and couple of motherships. Just like that.
And it isn't the first time that the NC did profit from strange GM decisions contradicting their otherwise strict policy of not reimbursing ships in fleet fights.
Is it first necessary that the gaming mags make a big bahoo about this before CCP gives us the promised answers? I thought these times would have been over.  |

Here is an update regarding events which occurred during a large fleet engagement in 6NJ8-V which took place on June 16th.
Some ships were destroyed during the engagement, yet they also managed to jump to safety. This resulted in the ships reappearing in-game some time after they were destroyed. Our server-side logs represent both of the aforementioned circumstances and the final outcome was that the ships remained in game with the modules which were destroyed along with them despite kill reports being sent out showing their destruction. Modules moved to wrecks upon the ships' destruction were not duplicated, and the owners of the ships received insurance payouts for the losses. No game masters or CCP staff for that matter were involved with the revival of the ships in any way.
The underlying issue has been examined and improvements implemented that should prevent similar situations in the future.
Regarding fleet-battle reimbursement and GM intervention in them in general, we have been down that road before and it's not the way to go. This has been discussed in much detail and the consensus is that it is best to simply stay well clear of messing with fleet-battles; this fleet engagement is no exception and we will remain consistent in this stance. We will not be passing judgment on what should have happened during this battle nor alter the outcome in any way.

Thanks for clarification.
ccp doesn't reimburse for lost ships due to their poor coding and lack of terrabytes they're running with which results in black screen, lag, etc...
Glad I sold my cap trained chars.

Well do you expect them to do? They ended up with a situation where the only data they have shows them both jumping out safely and being destroyed. You expect them to arbitrarily decide "This one made it out, revoke the killmail. This one died, take the ship."?
TBH there's not much else they could do than let things stand as is because the alternative arbitrarily screws someone on one side or the other.
I do hope, though, that CCP will detail a little bit more about the technical side of the problem, what's being done to address it, and when the fix will be live on TQ.

Eat it Southern Coalition, eat it!!! 
Next time you come to mess with the best there is, has been and ever will be, you better rethink your strategy. :smug:
Bottom line is the right thing has been done. I am also recommending those loss mails be removed from all kill boards now that the ships are officially blessed as being legit. So basically, the loss mails SC wave around are essentially, fake and irrelevant. Any kill board that claims to be legit should remove those kill mails now.
For the rest of you empire dwellers, when your ready to be with the winners, check into the Northern Coalition. As you can see, we are invincible and destined to dominate this game now forever.

First of all: Thank you very much for the update!
It is good to see that promises are kept. The nature of the incident and other server troubles in the meanwhile might have delayed the investigation. But end good, all good 
Still it seems some questions remain.
Originally by: GM Grimmi Here is an update regarding events which occurred during a large fleet engagement in 6NJ8-V which took place on June 16th.
Some ships were destroyed during the engagement, yet they also managed to jump to safety. This resulted in the ships reappearing in-game some time after they were destroyed.
Looks like the sever had the ships in both states then: Destroyed AND alive? Hopefully that drastic bug is fixed now.
Originally by: GM Grimmi Our server-side logs represent both of the aforementioned circumstances and the final outcome was that the ships remained in game
Why? Why did you let them in game and not remove them. Of course you can decide for either outcome, I am curious why you choose to let them stay in game and not let them stay destroyed. Both actions would be justified by the logs.
Originally by: GM Grimmi the owners of the ships received insurance payouts for the losses.
That doesn't sound right. The games stay in the game and the owner STILL get insurance? Insurance for what? The ships are not destroyed. Or maybe I misunderstood it.
Originally by: GM Grimmi No game masters or CCP staff for that matter were involved with the revival of the ships in any way.
That is good to know.
Again, thanks for the update!

It's probably closer to "Ships jumped out, loaded safe system, then logged out, and got magically teleported back to a hostile system. If we were going to interfere with the outcome of the battle, we'd have to interfere with two problems, the ships getting teleported back to combat, and the ships respawning.
Basicly remove them, then give them back"
We can't expect them to deal with one of the problems, and not the other now can we? Either they don't do anything, and the respawned titans are still in game, or they deal with both issues, and the titans that jumped to safety are returned.

Its easier to justify this if its in your favor, to the average player that has nothing to do with either side however, this looks extremely shady. If the shoe was on the other foot, I'm certain you would be singing a different toon. My opinion would still remain the same.

There are killmails for the titans, and it seems pretty shady that the titans were jumped out after they were killed. IMO, this is just as bad if not worse than T20.

I assume White Noise will be getting the Titan they found back then? If there is meant to be no GM intervention of favouritism returning that Titan to the NC can't be right, can it?
I'm sure CCP know the titans should be dead, afterall if they had jumped out they would still have all their modules and their pilots, right?
Equally, I can see that there is little alternative other to let things stand - doing the right thing would require ~effort~ Still, I'm surprised the insurance remains and a Titan was returned to NC by a GM - those things should be resolved. |

But I suppose it's just an event decision in keeping with what's going on in game in general to favor the NC.
Change sov system to favor defenders- Instead of having to win two engagments due to a pos ri timer lets make that an i-hub with another timer so now attackers have to win 3 engagements to knock down sov.
Revamp moon min situation- Make tech moons the new passive income ****, since they occur in Caldari low and null sec, no favoritism here. Is correcting the new moon gold paradigm even on CCP's to fix (again) list?
Now we get No NC Titan Left Behind. T20 was just unsophisticated. The logs they show something |
