Whose fault is that? ;)

So tell us. Why is this only happening when our drone heavy fleets clash?

Don't hate the player, hate the game.

Yeah go for personal attacks instead of answering the question and at the same time call other people silly.
You sir, deserve a hoof-clap.

All I know is a full fleet of Domis dropping drones causes pretty significant jumps in lag. Full slowcat fleets undoubtedly more so. So the argument that drones don't cause lag is a tad preposterous.

I will say the node crashes are a mystery, and there's no basis of comparison by which we could say it's the drones definitively. Too many things have changed, within the code and also in tactics.

The issue / narrative that some people are trying to push is that nodes are causing node crashes which is not true.

No, it just seems it is the only thing you understand as your arguments are so nonsensical that there is no point in discussing the topic with you.

There is no evidence to suspect that the same thing won't happen when you put two non-drone heavy fleets together in a post-Rubicon world.

We are talking about 1k fights crashing the node.

500 v 500 or 600 v 600. These arn't rare fights and there has been several since fountain.

Lets all face it, with 300 carriers each dumping up to 10 sentries and lets say two domi fleets launching 5 each we get at least 5000 drones on top of the ships in system on the same grid all slugging away at eachother. Drones have never been used as the primary damage for a fleet or in these numbers before.

What makes you think that these new doctrines are not to blame? It is a lot more believable that dumping thousands of drones in a fight lasting several hours are causing issues for the node than CCP making some sort of undocumented change in an expansion that had nothing to do with fleet fights.

What part of YOU HAVE NO EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT YOUR CLAIM do you not get that multiple people have explained to you in this thread?

Until CCP come out and directly say that drones are not a big cause of this issue I will go with what evidence we have. Right now it points to the mass use of drones over long periods of time in fights.

The causes for the previous three node deaths have been patched on TQ, for example.

It's worth noting that in all recent events it hasn't been the high load that directly causes the node death, but rather errors in the programming that only express at high load or in the kind of highly complex scenarios that large fights contain.

And you have no evidence to disprove it.

None of us have access to the code, all we have is the fact that when we adopted domi fleet and you hit us with slowcat fleet the nodes died in a fire and have done in every engagement between these fleets since.

There's a distinct difference between having courage, and fighting someone on their terms.
Dropping titans is exactly what they want us to do, and it infuriates them that we won't. So they'll call us cowards.
We know what they're really saying.

Jesus christ baltec of all the Charlie Browns in the world, you are the Charlie Browniest......

Hmm, asked about whats causing all this and how to fix it and strangely not a single word about drones anywhere in it, case closed sherlock

In fact if you read it, it even says they fixed the problem from the first 3 crashes, and whats oddly absent from his post,? Any mention of drones.

Well, lets see if the next match ends the same way. Afterall, they have already supposedly fixed this once. Incidentally, he was not asked if drones were causing this. He simply said that something was going wrong while the node was under stress.

You won't drop titans, but you will whine about slowcats being OP. Dat logic bro

What would titans have to do with them being OP or not?
Furthermore it'd be fairly trivial for slowcats to refit for DD tanking considering the Avatar and Erebus are by far the most common titans.

Basically, they're not enjoying eve enough and want some goon titan killmails

Wait ..... skillfree blobber who usually only win because of superior numbers playing tidi and station games saying in the past "if we cant fight you, we bore you to death", now cry because they get blobbed by another blobber with even more superior numbers because of drones and wail about "imbalance" and "fun"?

Oh this delicious tears. Please more of it, Zergswarm Goonies.

So obviously an alt of someone who's already posted. Quit sockpuppeting.

Isnt "socketpuppeting" a tactic well known to Goon Shitposters anymore?

Logging to your High-Sec Alts, open up tear-threads and answering with your "tight homie" to be
zergswarm alts babbling about "pubbies" or htfu?

Ask your highlord mittani if you dont know and spare us your show of the "innocent victims".

Is that why N3PL uses slowcats even when numbers are 1:1 ?
Is it because equal numbers are too large of a blob?
