aside from the appearin of thin air, i find it great that theres a storyline goin on.
also a nice challange - and tbh, id prefer to get soe experience against a mothership etc. from npcs then from other players ;),
i wonder if thex get hte titan out in a week or 2 o.O
btw, a serpentis general, whos elading thousands and more ppl, should have a few more skillpoints and its perfectly fine for me that these guys have maxxed skills.
i was int he group with db preacher, and 1j away when the dread explode.. kinda annoying - but was still fun with norad.

I like this event stuff and all, but what i donŠt agree on is a faction corp as serpentis or any other attacking Player Owned Stations.
WerenŠt the events teams supposed not to have influence in a Corp/alliance belogings ?? IŠm not talking about ships, iŠm talking about Structures.
What if the serpentis would commence attacking all our POS ?? What if any other faction event team starts to pick up POS and outposts from any other corp/alliance ?
I donŠt know the long term consequences of this attack, but it sure did affect BoB in the fact that we had a POS in reinforced by a event team.
In MY opinion this shouldnŠt happen. And i think theres something in the EULA about it.
In the end it was a major battle and i had lots of fun but i still donŠt agree on the fact that Faction/Event teams should have influence in the Players Owned Strutures.
This is my opinion NOT the BoB view of events

Originally by: theRaptor But mothership > all. Even having six frigs bumbing him wasn't enough to stop that mothership from warping.
I can imagine what can stop this piece of rock to escape. After each bumb my inty stopped like a dead duck for 20-30 seconds and each bumb mean a new chance to be instapoped by ogre2 or fighters skill lev MAX. I like chalanges, but the enemies was beyound real mechanic and skill of present game.
I the end I survive to this carnage only to mwd-ing all the time and be a lucky untargeted player too much by dreads. And really, an inty can kill only ogres, no chance to break carrier's fighters or to scramble something. In the end the lag was worst enemy.

Edited by: Leitari on 30/01/2006 09:48:52 I think I'll start by apologizing to the isd people for the *****ing I gave them in local after my death, not their fault. Im as ****ed off as I'll ever be.
I spent 2 hours getting ready and travelling to a2v6 for the fight. I waited patiently to get into range for my nosferatus to go to work. I waited patiently for my client to catch up on the lag. I waited patiently for the lag to clear up when I saw I had no control over my ships function while beeing bombarded by the dreadnaughts and their Ogre drone fleet of doom. The entire evening was a complete waste of time for me. I could have spent it staring at the wall.
To pick this time to organize an event of this magnitude KNOWING that the servers are very unstable is very very odd to say the least.
Props to isd for the event, just pick another time for it, sundays are lagdays. Its a fact...... not that it would matter for me as I always get my butt kicked by lag in these fights.....

Edited by: Leitari on 30/01/2006 10:07:13 Edited by: Leitari on 30/01/2006 10:06:59 also , fighting capital ships flown by the isd team is meaningless, no effort was put into building them, it doesnt mean anything if they lose them but it means alot if we lose ships against them coz alot of time is spent making them. I'd rather want to fight a player who's put actual work on the line.
Im all for more events, but having the isd providing the bulk of the guns isnt something I would find interesting in fighting.
ok.... nag over GO SERVER UPGRADES :D

Well, I was there, in A2V6 expecting G to arrive anytime soon and knowing that serpentis may come along too.
We hear from 2nd fleet let by DB Preacher that G are currently one system away from them near 4c- which gave us a nice buffer, nothing happened for a while so we decided to move down to help DB with the G fleet as DB was kinda outnumbered, so we move down quite a few jumps, then low and behold, we hear that "all of a sudden" serpentis have appeared in A2...WTF...
So we hot foot it back up and the pos is pretty much already in re-inforced lol, then the lag hits with only 40 of us and 7 NPC capital ships, then they start spawning more NPC ships, arrrrghhh, lag lag lag....
Fighting NPC faction alone was supposed to happen right ? Or were they only supposed to attack along with G, cos I think it was a bit unfair to us, that G didnt make good their attack and yet we were still getting battered around by the event team by themselves, I think they shoulda pulled out when G did tbh...and argued amongst themselves for their inadequacies <-- spelling?
Anyways...Just my 2 cents... -

gaining is a wee bit of the mark... when we are involved in the serp events none of us come back alive.. our entire fleet gets destroyed..

Sounds like fun, shame the lag ruined it but that should be fixed soon. And at least you got a dread kill. Everything else sounds reasonable.

I heard Interdictors can prevent Capital Ships from jumping even if they're immune to targetted EW. Did you guys not try it? __________________ Retard's handbook |

Actually its nice to see that the NPC Factions start to defend their places, if you put POS in a system with their Shipyard.

For the most part,i found the evening to be a waste of time. Suffice to say, i was unimpressed. After hauling ass to a2,camping, bubbling the gate to high heaven. G decided not to come. But to stop areound 4c. At this time there was around 60 ppl in a2. I go for dinner,come back,about 15-20 ppl in a2. Rest of fleet moved down to assit DBP.
All of a sudden,6 Moros and a Nyx appear at the gate. No cyno,no warning. They warp to a planet, we mess around a bit. They warp to our pos , and engage it. Our fleet, now had some more numbers, and some dreads. We move outside to engage. Fighters and drones are quickly deployed,lag begins. One dread is popped in like 30secs, admitadly not in siege. Rest return to bubble. After this, we spend the next 2 hrs or so trying to pick off the drones and fighters. An Ogre II took me almost 2 minutes to kill with a Harpy. It was webbed,even once on structure,it was insanely tough.
We catch the Nyx at planets etc playing around, but its impossible to hold. Back at the pos, its into armour, were bumping for our lives while the bs and dreads pound on it. But it still warps. In the end, they withdrew after the pos was reinforced, leaving a token dread for us to kill.
Things that really annoyed me.
*The instant spawning of thier fleet without a cyno. *The spawning of npcs at most planets,meaning our forces running from the fighters were caught. * The non showing of G, meaning in the end, and events team just came in and pwnd our pos. There reasoning, we are a threat to thier Shipyards. If im not mistaken, were certainly not the first ppl to have a pos there. * The npc frigs/cruisers at pos just changed into BS. Then just appeared in the middle of our BS. Like 6 Dreads with god knows how many drones, and a Mothership with 20+ fighters isnt enough . * The event timing was unreal,long before the fight, in travel, some of us were emergency warping jumping into empty systems. The lag was unreal in places.
I personally, have no interest in RP. I would much rather learn how good Motherships etc are in a real battle. Not some meaningless event. I have no interest fighting an events team. Especially when its targetted directly at our belongings. A public event like the Titan event etc isnt so bad. But an events team coming to bbq a single alliance is lame. Despite common believes, we dont have a /spawn_new_ship command like the events team.

errrr, so, like, when will ORE (as it is THEIR sovereignty) be coming to remove the shipyard?
Haven't really thought about that one, huh?

Aurora shouldnt interact with normal warfare in Eve. Always said that, it ruins Players funs, if I want a good fight against people who wont loose anything when I kill em I go to Sisi and blow some stuff on FFA.
People have to work for their ships, dont make em wasting them.
Its not the first of the events which are kinda stupid, NORAD had to face a similar situation before, where Serpentis and Bob attacked them together

Originally by: Foomanshoe I mean, 0.0 events are nice and all, but taking in multiple capital ships, especially motherships against alliance bases? thats pretty questionable. Whats next? in the middle of fleet battles an Aurora Titan will spawn, drop its doomsday and call it an event? Is that supposed to be fun?
Have you seen the loot? Most if not all of those capital ships are equipped with officer equipment. -------------
