infused	Posted - 2005.06.23 06:48:00 - [1] Edited by: infused on 23/06/2005 06:57:18 Well I just entered a complex I have been in many times... 1a 4/10 Complex in .4 space. I was in a Maller. I get insta locked by 30+ rats and half armor before it even displays the space. So I die, my corp mate comes in and gets ganked too... Can I pention this? I have done this complex many times and never had this happen... This has to be bugged and I hope I get a good repsonce... (\_/) (O.o) (> <) This is Bunny.

Typherin laidai	Posted - 2005.06.23 07:12:00 - [2] Well you can petition.. they can only say no. Im not entirely sure if the complex rats are random or set as a base spawn. If they are randomised then no... you wont get your ship back. I seem to remember seeing a post a while ago of something like this.. I dont think it ended well for the person involved Originally by: Eris Discordia gives Typherin some loving

It was a 4/10 complex, yet it was pumping out the damage of fleet combat. Even the towers were firing on me. I warped in like 7km away from 30 rats... It's just stupid. This really, really anoyed me.

Aeon Yakati	Posted - 2005.06.23 09:20:00 - [4] Was this shortly after downtime or later? It 's a possibility someone else had been there before you, drawn aggro from all and then left again, leaving the npc's near the warp-in point.

Complexes should be like WoW's instances. They should be created in parallel so no one can interfere with them. (\_/) (O.o) (> <) This is Bunny.

infused	Posted - 2005.06.23 11:35:00 - [9] I think i'd seriously consider leavig EVE for this. I know it may only seem like a small problem to some of you, but. When I have done a complex 10 times before, I don't expect this to happen. This to me is a bug. It means Complex were not designed properly. I lost a Maller of 10m and a setup of good gear worth over 10m as well. I'm not going back to main roids or whatever for something that was not my fault. The only reason i'm saying this before the pention results is that I have heard that GM's will not refund for such a thing. That to me would kill my whole gaming experience with EVE.

I wish every mission and complex in Eve changed a little from time to time. Would make it more fun that way. Doing the same missions/complexes all day long that look excactly the same each time is beginning to look a lot like singleplayer of Eve.
Typherin laidai	Posted - 2005.06.23 11:55:00 - [11] If your prepared to quit a game because you lost a ship to NPC's then thats your decision... crappy things happen to everyone m8... ive sat in roid belts in heavily battered to hell cruisers after a fight only to have an NPC spawn on top of me and crush my little Arbitrator .. which i didn't find very funny at all... but thats part of the game and u have to deal with it and move on Petition it... you have nothing to lose. and even if its not answered just go back there and run it again,,, if youve done it 10 times you can surely afford a new Maller. You will lose ships in this game... its not risk free. And not meaning to be harsh but if losing a ship is going to upset you to the point of threatening to quit then prehaps you should... though id say dont , Eve is a great game.. but look at it the right way,,, its a game . Ive been playing over year... but atm the average 1 month old player probably has more isk than me lol.. but nevermind if you have fun who cares.

Dionysus Davinci	Posted - 2005.06.23 12:35:00 - [12] I have done the 4/10's alone, in a Brutix no less

Skeeve	Posted - 2005.06.23 12:49:00 - [14] Edited by: Skeeve on 23/06/2005 12:50:10 Maller $9+ mil isk.. Good named Weapon / Mod loadout 8+ mil isk... Good list of 4/10 complexes *market price Expression on INfused's face when the 4/10 spawn bumrapes his Maller in under 10 seconds.. = PRICELESS... sry.. couldn't resist... Your chances of getting back your ship are pretty much nil.. most of us have lost ships due to fecky game mechanics and many of us don't even bother to report an issue any more.. the response from the powers that be is .. shall we say.. less than "stellar"?

Dionysus Davinci	Posted - 2005.06.23 12:52:00 - [15] Originally by: Akaviri Hmm.. maybe some mean pirate lured all the npc ships to the warp in point on purpose? Or simply someone that tried to run it before hand stayed at the warp in point tanking but either ran away or blew up.
Vernichtungsengel	Posted - 2005.06.23 12:55:00 - [16] my other char got podkilled by NPC's before, gowd knows how, but it was backin the day when u took splash damage from torps/explosions so that may have been the reason. Vernichtungsengel - 'Angel Of Death'

Can I have your stuff? THere's a 4/10 complex near where I'm based, and I regularly do it alone in a Ferox when I'm extremely bored. I also like to go into it with a really fast ship, shoot the turrets so everything aggros, and drag it all back to the warp-in point. Sometimes this is far enough from the cruiser spawn that a new flight of cruisers is generated, adding to the mess. It's called setting a trap. Looks like you fell into one. "You Griefer!!!" = "You Doodyhead!!!"
infused	Posted - 2005.06.23 21:19:00 - [18] The result was no.. I am going to fight it though. I have had enough of this game. Enough of the "We don't have any logs sorry". What a load of crap, sorry but it is. I design programs and they are designed to log everything. I would have thought after 2 years, so would CPP. It's not the fact I lost a ship. I have plenty of money to replace it. I'm tired of the support. Nothing gets replaced anymore for their bugs. This was a bug. I've sent them a screen shot, i'm also going to fraps it tonight. They cannot deny that. (\_/) (O.o) (> <) This is Bunny. Copy Bunny into your signature to help him on his way to world domination.

I see it as a design flaw as now no one can do that complex and everyone who enters is going to die. I think that should be refundable. The complex should be reset once everyone warps out.

RipSnort	Posted - 2005.06.23 22:51:00 - [21] Checking the screenshot you can see a couple of cans from at least one other corp sitting there, so maybe someone tried it just before you did, attracted the NPCs to the warp-in point, and got miserably housed. And a few minutes later you jumped in, unwary of the situation... Anyway don't take losing a ship too bad, m8, it happens to most everyone, consider it a small setback. Game wouldnt be fun if there were no risks at all, now, would it?

Dasagi	Posted - 2005.06.24 00:42:00 - [24] lucky i insured my ship before i went. im in between corps atm though so i have no support to help me get a new ship i have to wait another 8hrs till i can join my new corp. :<
Black Reaper	Posted - 2005.06.24 00:53:00 - [25] That sucks for you Infused. I know that complex worked earlier that night b/c I happened to do it twice in my rupture. Sorry to hear about the loss(not); enjoy the stuff you stole from our corp.
Smada	Posted - 2005.06.24 01:20:00 - [26] 4/10 complexes entirely do-able in an Assault Frig. Buy yourself a Harpy and a good small shield booster / AB / 150mm T2 rail setup - will make you almost untouchable in a 4/10 complex. Light the AB, then spank them all! Cruisers can't hit you, take the Frigs down first, then the cruisers. Only prob can be if there are a few missile lobbing cruisers, but that's where the standard launcher with defenders comes in. Well...ok the small Gistii shield booster does help TBH the Gistii does'nt get used that much in there. Only probs I have ever had were fighting Blood Raiders (lvl 3 mish) with a shield hardner onboard and I forgot to turn off the blasted shield booster so nearly ran out of cap. Great little ship, hard as nails. I'm sure the Amarr AF is just as much fun. Much more fun than doing them in a Cruiser I have found.

He's Amarr, hes pretty new. wtf would he be doing in a caldari ship? Quit whining infused. At the gate set the scanner for 10000km and see whats there. Extend it 5km at a time. If you see a blob dont warp in.
Smada	Posted - 2005.06.24 02:31:00 - [28] Deja, please read the full post. The Harpy was just a personal example. Sorry if I offended your sensibilities....LOL Quote: I'm sure the Amarr AF is just as much fun. I think the "Amarr AF" is the relevant part there. Nuff said. Cool name btw......Edgar Rice Burroughs aint it?
Skyraker7	Posted - 2005.06.24 05:30:00 - [29] I know the 8/10 complexes are bugged atm... if someone enters and then buggers off again, they keep respawning and respawning. Mate of mine went into one yesterday and there was something like 80 BS sitting there....
Bubba Fett	Posted - 2005.06.24 06:14:00 - [30] I don't know why you thought you might get your ship back. CCP has said again and again that they don't replace stuff unless they've got logs proving a bug. You really think they're going to log the position of EVERY NPC when a player ship dies? So you lost a cruiser worth 20m. I know plenty of people that have lost battleships to game bugs. A few weeks ago I lost an Enyo to NPC's doing something unexpected. I got 1.5m in insurance and the replacment cost me 30m. If it's that much of a problem to you then you probably SHOULD quit before you start playing with more expensive ships where the ship loss REALLY hurts.
