Glad to see CCP wising up on new Empire Wars that will reduce hi sec to rookie islands and get rid of those ridiculously congested trade hubs. From what I gather system security drops will begin in the systems around Caldari Prime in just few weeks if not days near Luminaire. How far is Jita ? 4-5 jumps Time to stock up some ships around there and prepare to make market goods a bit more rare.
No longer will the enlightened be called "pirates" rather than "noble privateer" and "patriot" when those with clear sight see that killing miners and commerce is the true path to strategic victory as well as legitimate profits of war.
Hopefully in the near future CONCORD will be virtually the NEW Incursion rats but in limited conquerable numbers without all the ultimate absolute sovereignty super powers. |

Say will Empire factions be issuing Letters of Marquee that give CONCORD immunity as long as your targets have high enemy faction standings?
I'd say that is an idea that its time has come. All standings would just need to be public info and instead of just CONCORD security standings. |

.
Actually Letters of Marquee should let you shoot anyone who is NOT flying a clear friendly faction flag -- specifically neutral merchants can be accused of transporting war supplies and enemy merchants are clear targets at all times.
Though maybe neutrals might be given a pass in systems where friendly navies are in control. |

If James 315 and others can get over 50K-100K capsuleers to attack CONCORD stations and ships during this crisis...will that be newsworthy enough of a grassroots rebellion in concert with this event to accelerate roleplaying the fall of CONCORD everywhere except around rookie systems? |

So.... The entire Black Eagles plot line that has Gallente shooting Gallente is going after the Caldari?
Really...... I'm amazed at you guys, you claim to be RP'ers and better than other MMO players.
Yet you whine worse than WoW players.
You mean that plotline that's basically two posts that got buried right away? The one where a couple soldiers killed another couple soldiers? Oh my, how horrible. What were the Caldari reported to be doing at the time? Oh, right, mass killings of civilians on Caldari Prime. And that's like, one of two negative stories on the Gallente in the last three years. I can't count the number of negative ones on the Caldari. It might also be noted that nothing that the Federation does that is bad ever matters. It's like one person here or two people there, and they always have a justification for it. The few exceptions are natural disasters, but everyone gets those stories. But when everyone is getting into DUST? Yeah, that's when they make sure that no one will want to sign up on the Caldari side for the next five years.
Hey I think its just a few folk who can't figure out that those stories are about political power shifting back to warhawks in both Empires. That is the true power holders of both sides (Caldari and Gallente) want war and there were a few peace chickens standing in the way on each side that had to be swept out of the way first.
That internal strife and preparation is now over and both Empires are ready for some serious war until its just knives left. |

This cap has already been enacted, but we will be dynamically altering it as the server load requires and raising it if everything runs smoothly."
FAIL
Never imagined a game with tens of thousands of subscriptions capping a game wide event at 1000 players...even Jita can support more than that:(
1000 EVE combatants is a lot considering the database portion is ALSO supporting ALL the DUST combatants who can make it there. so more like 16K combatant on database portions. Fortunately the EVE game action is executed on separate server from DUST. |

separate servers for game execution. Only certain databases are common...and probably the reason for the cap.
Don't want market to crash and DUST bunnies unable to buy more ammo do we (* watching 100s of rabid EVE heads shaking yes that would be fun *).
Plus of course orbital bombardment interface is probably not designed to have 100s of responding pilots for every target.

Obviously there should have been celestial recruiting agents for each factional warfare group in the system.Maybe more than one if you made them desructible or conveniently near each gate.
CCP you still got time to things right. Spawn a site and recruiting agents for each faction warfare group. |
