DBP/RB/SM please tell you minions to stop crying:

* Everyone in the game is experiencing the same lag atm > This cancels out you lag whining
* You got some officer l00t > This cancels out most relevant losses
* You got a tough fight > Isnt this what every bob member wanted?!

I think its pathetic that *even bob management* is complaining about this event.
Bob didnt experience anything extraordinary, the entire eve-universe is experiencing the exact same problems.
Bob is always bragging they can handle anything... Well, deal with it!

So u'r saying that everyone in game gets killed by invisible fleets atm ?

In the end we got a tough fight sure, still doesn't take away the fact that some feels that the aurora team is steping over the line by attacking a POS without any supply lines to back it up.

"My fleet inside 4c- is decimated but finally starts logging on, we get a few guys back together and go back in against Norad. This time we encounter no lag and simply decimate norad for a couple of support losses "


Battleships are Support losses?

btw norad forces had also lag ;)

The events team then proceeded to spawn NPCs right in the middle of the BoB fleet as they were fighting the Nyx and the Moroses.

---

This is the first time I've heard of the Events Team using NPC's. WTF???

hello, i'm here to whine about yesterday's event. Flying by the nyx and pew pewing at him was a total boring thing to do. capital ships suck, pos warfare isn't fun, I was totally not impressed by 6 moros + 1 nyx warping in together, I wasn't impressed by molle's revelation popping in 30 seconds either, all in all, eve sucks.

now bring it molle.

And carefull readers might even notice that no BoB have complained here directly about how BoB lost an amount of ships that most smaller alliances would need weeks to even replace. The serpentis in one fight probably cost BoB more isk in losses then the total of G and FA/VC/IMP efforts in the last couple of weeks did.

Woodie, do you really think 10bs, some support and a dread will even come close to denting our finances and combat power? What Rod is saying, that the serps and their amazing powers of spawn, killed more of our ships and did more damage to us in one day, than any of those other alliances have done in weeks.

Okay, I'll ask because I'm at work and dying to know:

I was looking at the BoB Killboard this morning and saw that the Serpentis showed up in 4C-B7X last night with at least 3 Moros Dreads and a frakin' NYX!

Looks like one hell of a fight.

Then in A2V6-6, BoB took down a Serp Moros and it looks like another major battle took place with the same force.

This Serp thing against BoB seems to be shaping up into something much more than the average "one-shot" events of the past. The MC has been approached as part of this storyline and a couple others as well.

I've also heard a lot about the Sansha vs. Angels/ASCN conflict going on in the south. That seems to be shaping up as well into something long-term.

What else is going on out there? Is it time to applaud the Events Team for finally finding some resolve and sticking it to the players a bit? How much more of this can we expect to see in the future?

I'd love to hear comments from everyone involved as to what your experiences have been over the past month or so.

This is the quick version of what happend today, I can give you the details later.

Serps appear out of thin air with Multiple captial ships (mothership 6 dreads) and make a move onto A2V6. Molle is able to get a gang of about 45 to 50 together to counter/stall the attack.

A group of about 50 BoB move up from Delve and run into a G/NORAD fleet (80ish) in 4C who in our guess were heading to join the serps in A2 for some fun. Some dancing was done and both fleets end up one jump outside of 4C.

Next the Lag Monster showed up.

We get word of 10 NORAD ships sitting in 4C covering the gate back in, our scout failed to mention the Lag Monster had set up camp with them, we suspect he was flying a Raven.

50 plus BoB BS and TechII ships Jump into 10 NORAD Dominix and Ravens. Loading.. Loading.. Loading.. Loading.. Loading.. ffs we staggered our jumps in groups of 15 over 30 seconds apart... Loading.. Loading.. Emergency Warps back to the gate.. No enemys to be seen. Dead. The game could not handle a 50V10 gank and froze on us. The 10 proceeded to BBQ everyone on emergency warps and G support came through and added to the Lag.

I stormed off cursing loudly, I think G went home about this same time.

Later I hear our few guys attacking a Serp Capital fleet and downing one moros, as the ships continued to spawn on top of their heads. Didnt sound to pretty.



Listen I love events and all, but maybe put off brining 2 alliances and a capital ship fleet until after the server upgrades are done. Pretty Please?

Your scouts from what ihave read on NORAD forums failed to meantion much more then the lag also the size of Norad fleet.

And Galavet and DB Preacher get real, the lag doesnt hit only poor BOBs it hits NORAD as well.Ofc jumps in are more affected but still.

"This time we encounter no lag and simply decimate norad for a couple of support losses"

"this time" being encounter ~22:30 eve time in 4c- ... as opposed to the one ~21:30 which was when people got stuck on the jump in ^^




This time u outnummberd us again ;), but it is okay.I lost my geddon, but i was proud
to be in battle against u guys :).I have a lot of experience now with bob, and bob comes only if they heavly outnummber the enemy :).We knew the gate was a trap, but norad dont run.We better had setup bubbles at the bf gate, and then u guys had lost a lot more :) ( in the first encounter).

I'm not going to argue with you Earthan, I'm telling you what happened. We didn't encounter lag when we jumped in. Our clients simply froze completely.

Eventually some people loaded and they were in emergency warp ss. Some people CTD'd and the rest died.

You can say all you want Earthan but if you think I can lose 8 BS when jumping ~50 into ~10 and get no kills at the gate (considering you know how good we are from personal experience) then I just guess we will have to disagree on that point.

hahahahahahahaha sorry cant stop laughing hahahahahahaha I have more experience fighting Norad then you do BoB and i'll admit some of you might have balls but the rest is just utter crap and only fights when severly outnumbering us. I got challanged to a 1v1 by one of you, who even ran when he realized he would lose.... how honorable. Shivaja and co keep up the good fun in 4c-

but thats simply not true regarding to the last weeks. /emote reminds u of the 2 downed bob dreads in JU for example

oh and ofc it wont even come close to denting you. its just the same amount when losing a fleetbattle in which a dread was included. nothing more.
