Zeba Minmatar Honourable East India Trading Company	Posted - 2010.07.27 18:46:00 - [1] Originally by: Doctor Ungabungas Originally by: GoingOffRoading How many multiplayer games support 1000+ players fighting eachother at once in one spot together... The well known internet spaceship game Eve Online used to support 1000+ players fighting at one spot. I can't imagine why they took that feature out. Because ccp massively underestimated the organizational skills of the moar dedicated players who actually got their alliances to the point they could eventually field thousands of capital ships. In a single fight no less. I seriously don't think ccp was ready for that to happen so soon and that was reflected in their initial reasoning for bringing titans into the game because they stated "welp they cost so gosh darned much and take so annoyingly long to build only a few mega alliances will ever make one and then only for e-peening". Riiiiiiiight.. Remember that first 1000 ship fight that failed utterly due to lag? Then the rage when someone dug up some obscure video interview with Ovuer(maybe?) talking about how awesome it was that the players could actually get 1000 players all in one place to do something for an overall goal spoken in a wonderous tone of disbelief? I mean seriously the guy looked kinda stunned as he talked about it like he was thinking to himself "wtf have we unleashed?!?" as he talked. Of couse we all know how the forums completely missed that part and just flamed on the part of him bragging about a 1000 ship fight. But the flaming eventualy got ccp to hopping and we had our brief summer of fun with laggish free 1000 ship fights. Then Dominion rolled in and poof instantly back to even worse nullsec fleet lag than the bad ole days. But now to actually answer your question. Blame all the major alliance leaders as they were the ones who threatened to drop their newly lag free capital blob on anything that tried to claim any new territory because boo hoo ccp nerfed their massive afk empire mechanic that made them multi trillionares with little effort after they got enough cynojammers up. Small startup corp wanting to claim a fairly worthless system in a strategically useless area so they could improve it to make some decent isk and enjoy the game by 'owning' a little bit of territory? Pffft. Hotdrop the titans and dd that hauler!! Take that CCP! Then Dominion which showed no hint of any forseeable lag on the test server shipped a week later and.. well no need to repeat common knowledge. And so The Age Of Nap was born.

Zeba Minmatar Honourable East India Trading Company	Posted - 2010.07.28 05:46:00 - [2] You want to reign in supercap fleet spam? Nerf jump range so they are tactical assets only that need lots of planning to deploy effectively. As it stands minutes after someone finds a suitable target a supercap blob can literally cross the entire eve universe to go wtfpwn it if they have an adaquate cyno chain setup with energy transfer ships such as carriers along for the ride. Something that every corp easily has access to if they are even remotely serious about hotdropping their supercaps.

Dominion Trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rQ9_3DckAQ Dominion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WxbuiUlU47I I wish some how that the above video was a joke.. but any one who lives in 0.0 knows the only joke is on us. If you actually count the ships in the real dominion trailer you will find the entire battle was around a 100~150 ships total. Apparently that is still a playable fight if you get ccp to reinforce the node so the trailer is not lying.

Could you now please stop crying and stop taking CCP's valuable time not demanding devblogs every half hour? Because the more they write devblogs or a dev writes here, that's time taken out of their job as a dev, working on a solution. Also has been said time and time again - if you figure yourself so smart that there is a single line of code that would fix all lag problems, feel free to apply to CCP, I heard they're hiring. Seriously, you've had plenty of blue/red posts over these issues already, how about finally letting them work? Because the single part of the game they log in to play is borked. You tend to get impatient when the single solitary thing you do has been unavailable for nearly a year. And don't get on them to try new things as they seem to be totally devoted to fleet fights only which is their call tbh. If they choose to cut themselves off from the rest of the game then oh well let them vent on the forums to pass the time. Its not like anyone here actually pays attention to them anymoar past baiting them in threads or lulzing at the rage and outright misinformation some of the elite fleet fight members poast.

Hey i thought goons got flushed down the toilet after they forgot to push that button? Why are they still trying? Why are they still posting horribly? Thanks The pubbie leftovers from the massive arse raping the real goons gave their former alliance never left. They reformed under a fake goon moniker(as all the real goons left last year) and are now failing horribly at pretty much everything.

While I agree with your general idea that there is more that people who do nothing but fight in 0.0 to do in eve, you come off as a real ass and just as pretentious, if not more so, than those complaining about that broken aspect of the game. If all the lag whining is really upsetting you that much why don't you quit? This game is a sandbox after all. You can't expect people to play the game YOUR way then complain when they tell you to eff off. I'm not a ccp employee so I can poast in whatever tone I **ing feel like. All we get from the fleet fight guys is rage and constant disruption of the forums on every level. So sue me if I am returning the favor in their threads. off..

Zeba Minmatar Honourable East India Trading Company	Posted - 2010.08.09 17:32:00 - [9] Originally by: Zeke Mobius Originally by: Zeba Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Please link me a single thread I have ever made with any of my tears in them. Hell, if anything I've taken shots at ccp in a far greater number of posts than all the nub angry fleet fight guy alts combined. But lookie lookie I actually get results because I take the time to logically present an argument and to logically bash the emotroll haters trying to pull my thread down. CCP went from "nah, no local in wh on lauch is not really a design priority and will only be considered for a later release" to "Hey kids we are going to go with no local in wh on launch!!" due to my dogged determination along with plenty of rational backup from my forum mates. Maybe you fleet fight guys could do the same to get ccp to listen to you? God knows the current situation we have here is doing absolutely nothing for your cause. Tbh if I was ccp and actually had the fix ready to go in at hotpatch I wouldn't deploy it just because the ones it helps have been such unmitigated areshats.
