Way.
To.
Go.
Let player logi participate for once.
I mean, neat event attempt, but there needs to be some sort of support for the player fleet (logi) in the HS systems or there will be no kills of any capital that is in a dev fleet. Since none of the players will be getting reps.
huh?
why would logi go suspect? |

so my questions are
1 where will the fight be ( caldari state is about 30 jumps away)
2 are we fighting players or npc''s
3 is this a fleet thing or can i fly around solo and shoot stuff
4 i'm going to die alot are'nt i
thats all at the moment just need to be close to where it will be happening to set jump clone and parts , ships and anything else i need and i take it utc is eve time?
Highsec will be against NPCs unless they set everyone suspect again (please!). If you want PvP, come to the lowsec one in a clean clone (no expensive implants) and just shoot whoever you want. Educate yourself about gate guns and aggression mechanics.
Or join RvB in the interim.

Thank you for providing a broad schedule which incorporates multiple time zones. Hopefully in the future we can expand it further between 00:00 - 12:00 hrs to better service the Australia and Eastern Asia regions. :)

We already know what time they are appearing and that it's going to be somewhere in Caldari Low/High. If it required some degree of actual, you know, hunting, that would be fantastic. And maybe you could avoid the instant 10% TiDi as far as 5 systems out that most recent live events have involved (not to mention being locked out of the event system when you actually reach it.
I actually agree with this comment, make it more fun , don't name the System !! |

Assuming they use NPC actors, the aggression mechanics make Logi go suspect.
If someone shoots a suspect they start a limited engagement.
Repping someone in a limited engagement makes you go suspect regardless of if you also have shot the same person and have a limited engagement also.
This was designed to stop neutral logi being untouchable in wars & duels, so was a good fix overall, but has had the side effect that logi repping someone fighting a suspect end up suspect while the DPS players don't. So in an event like this it punishes logi pilots doubly. Since Logi have no recognition under the prize structure they are promoting, and because Logi go suspect so get shot at by all the scavengers as well. |

If CCP gave out solid gold bars, you would complain they were too heavy.
I wouldn't undock a shuttle for a ship skin. Will probably fly logi if I can get to the fight.
This is a massive departure from CCP's normal policy for live events. As the normal policy till now has been no in game rewards. There have been Dev roams that haven't dropped anywhere near this much value in rewards. So yes, I feel the scale of the reward is out of line with their previous behaviour. FIVE HUNDRED BILLION ISK! Seriously.
And the rewards aren't being allocated in a manner that allows everyone a chance. For the low sec ones the big prizes will go to either CFC/PL as the effective entities left who can project caps in number or the local entity if they drop into a system someone has local caps in already. Since the Caps can take the prizes for most damage, & kill shot.
Additionally as has been shown already to be problematic in previous live events, both the structure of the event and agro mechanics punish logi pilots for attending. I say this as someone who normally flies logi also. I turn up, and I get next to no recognition. When the event gives no-one any recognition that's one thing, but when the event is structured to give out FIVE HUNDRED BILLION in pay outs, and as Logi I am punished by agro mechanics making me suspect if it's in high sec, and have no chance at all to get any of those pay outs, I think it's fair enough to say that Logi are getting left in the cold with the design. |

However this turns out I'm really glad to see that you're spreading the events out over multiple timezones. Two of these are ideal for the AUTZ and another two are fairly reasonable. Thanks!

Given that during Caldari Prime you actively limited the number of players in system AND the server still took a massive dump and failed to generate killmails.
How exactly do you plan on making sure it actually works this time or do your logs miraculously work when you want them to? :p |

For the purposes of this event, yes.
The same applies to T2 and their base hull. So a Sabre would be in the destroyer category.

Surviving, even thriving, while dealing with this basic truth is the challenge of Eve. CCP likes it this way, and figuring out a way to get the prize despite the stacked odds is the point. Good luck to you sir!

Couple points/questions.
First, CCP definitely has had in-game rewards for past live events. Think of all those uber nice drops from past dev roams.
Second, and more to the point, will those aiding the Provists suffer penalties? It seems hard to fathom that the Caldari would simply shrug off anyone aiding these traitors as merely the cost of doing business.
A massive Caldari standing hit would seem to be in order, but as we all know, unless you are a mission runner or engaged in reprocessing, negative standings don't mean anything. You could be - 1 billion to the Caldari and yet still dock in Jita and buy stuff, for example. Still, give out neg standing hits to those that aid the Provists. If nothing else, it makes sense within the setting.
Since faction standing doesn't prevent anyone from going anywhere, perhaps there should also be massive negative security standing hits for those aiding the Provists, also? If folks are going to aid people the Caldari consider public enemies, there should be serious consequences other than just the potential loss of a ship.
If an IC justification is needed for Concord imposing such sanctions against capsuleers for what might be considered an internal Caldari matter, I'm sure that if Concord didn't blacklist those who aid the Provists, the Caldari might not be that willing to continue funding Concord. Having the economic superpower threatening to pull its funding does tend to make one sit up and take notice :) |
