PAX East is this coming Friday-Sunday. CCP will be there. They stated something along the lines of "biggest in game live event" will be occurring that weekend.... Good thing I'll be there.
Maybe this is a premonition of my first time flying a Titan on Saturday....... ending like every other "first time" in my life... a ball of fire and lots of tears.
Hey, as a dude that lives in lowsec, you should read my idea on how to "fix" it... in Blog format, complete with a spreadsheet!

Seeing it in the background is cool. but at some point it would absolutely stellar if a titan killed in orbit would crash INTO one fo the districts, giving the owning corp the ability to either salvage it for materials/resources to sell back to EVE, or KEEP IT and build a base inside the crashed titan-fortress wreck. would be better than a freakin bunker. |

Maybe i'm reading too much into this , but if something the size of a titan crashed right next to that district in the video , the district should be nothing more than a massive crater , but i guess that woudn't really work as an fps map. |

The Leviathan Titan is nearly 20km in length. If it crashed vertically into the ground it would look A LOT LARGER. If it's anything significant it could be the remains of the skyscraper that was recently blown up according to the news reports in the EVE universe.
But yeah, even in a destroyed state, the Leviathan would be much larger and would of leveled and destroyed everything within an extremely large radius if it crashed into Caldari Prime upon destruction.
Also, I'm sure there would of been a news report about it by now for us RPers to bicker about in the Intergalactic Summit.

See even the Caldari Navy can mistakenly Jump and not bridge...
Second Leviathan was supposed to bridge a fleet to Cal Prime, jumped instead, bumped off the existing Titan and speared into the atmosphere...

In fact, you are not reading enough into it.
Who says that the Titan has to hit the ground like an asteroid at some insane speed of like 50 km per second? It could have anti-gravitational fields and simply drop down at a low speed and then sink into the ground by its own mass, which would cause enough havoc, but could leave it standing like a mountain range.
What is a bit unusual is the clean air, which allows us to see the whole thing as clear as in the video.
Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling. |

If somethign that big crashed, It would puncture the crost of the planet and obliterate life in a whoel continent most likely. Imagine the earthquake of that thing impact!
There is backgroudn on thatin EVE lore. After the Emrpess defeated one of the elder fleets, the population of the planet suffered for months with the falling of naglfar hulls over the planet destroying cities in the process (and naglfars are only 4 km long) |

assuming caldari prime has earthlike gravity and considering a titan mass and density which are likely going to be orders of magnitude higher than any rocky or ice asteroid ever, a titan falling onto a planet would probably as said before ,go straight trough the planet crust and incinerate a huge portion of the planet, now thing is, we don't know how far that titan on the video is, it could be hundreds of kilometers away and thus look smaller than it actually is.
either way... I hope they have salvagers in dust... |

My only question is this:
How does a 15km ship fall into the ground all the way from orbit.... ass first... without breaking up on impact?

I really like the fact that they haven't written the Soltueur out of Eve lore and that actually, the Erebus is still somewhat the 'baby' [escort ship] next to it.
(If I recall correctly, way way way back, when it used to get rolled out on Sisi for stress tests (i.e. get crap load of people on grid shooting), it [Soltueur] had POS level HP's...)

I agree on the level of destruction buuuuuut
....sense of scale is relative. This could simply be very very far away, which I imagine that it is.

You all obviously don't understand EVE physics: If the Titan really did drop on CaldariPrime it'd just bounce off suffering no damage & ping pong off of a moon while Caldari prime itself would bump an exhumer in one of its belts... afterwards James 315 would give the whole planet a New Order medal

either way... I hope they have salvagers in dust...
also, assuming there is still some people and systems alive/operational onboard the titan, its highly likely that they KNOW what would happen if a titan crashed planetside, and built it specifically to avoid that.
think using its shield-array or warp engine or whtnot to try and slow its fall to avoid massive civilian collateral. militarys do stuff like that to look good. because it turns into "caldari navy attempts to prevent collateral damage in titan crash" and "gallente navy endangers civilian populace by dropping a 20km chunk of space-steel on them".
but yeah, id assume they would try and use SOMETHING to slow the titans fall, if not to rpevent civilian casualties, then at LEAST to keep as much of the ship intact as possible for salvage. this would also explain why its now a tower instead of a pile of rubble. |

think there's a dev blog or something too.
Want miners to move from high sec to null sec?
Then give them a reason to join player corps, and stop null sec grav sites being worth less isk/hour than high sec asteroid belts.
Really isn't difficult. |

Too small? of just far away?
Those who haven't seen the latest DevBlog might turn their magic crystal balls that way.
