Originally by: James Duar Every dead Titan should have a permanent wreck until the point that that becomes a problem. I'm willing to bet that never happens.
Why? What would be the point? Its just another wreck.

Just another wreck?

I don't really think there needs to be a cap on how many wrecks to place in the game, because think about it, how many wrecksof titans do you foresee? Yes, you could look at the numbers for this year and go, "welp, it could be a porblem" but I'd chalk that up to being new in the ships. Over time titan pilots will be far more capable and far more careful. In truth, even with the new game mechanic changes, a titan pilot has no excuse for dying save poor decisions.
In conclusion, I live in 77s, I wanna see that wreck everyday when I commute to work.

Just to add fuel to the fire...
You won't remove the ungodly amounts of cans still anchored in .8+ systems since rule change.
You won't remove cans hanging off grid on systems that haven't been touched in years, and they never get shot since it's too boring.
Yet you're worried about the lag the titan wrecks as permanent objects might create? I am confused.

I cant really see titan monuments becomming much of a problem.
Lets say there is a HUGE increase in titan deaths in the next year, say it increases 1000%... that would still only leave 30 monuments spread out among 5000 systems.
In reality I would like to see each titan get a unique wreck model made but I know this is in all probability a pipe dream.
In any case I would like to see atleast the first 100 titan deaths and 50 mothership deaths get permanent wrecks.
As for the info on them... whats this silly stuff about "it was piloted by" "it was destroyed by"... simply give it the normal titan info with the addition that it is now a wreck, have the pilot show just like he would in any ship and give the wreck in space the BoB ticker, thats all that is needed.
I would also love to see scrapmetal fields with floating shipwrecks be placed in the systems that have seen large battles on a frequent basis.
Actually rather than making the titan wrecks permanent why not give the wrecks a lifespan? One year should work great.
And no matter what else the Shirke titan deserves a monument as it was the first titan to go down in a blazing glory, Im actually suprised that BoB is not asking for the monument to be put upp along with the red alliance and goons, after all that whole battle and how they handled the aftermath gave them alot more cred than they have managed to sc*****together during their whole existence, in that fight they showd that they will stay and fight and they will suck it upp if they loose, I tip my hat to that but for the rest of their rep... well its not exactly blemish free is it.
As for it being too close to a gate... it died next to a gate, I doubt it will cause more problems than billboards, sentry guns and POI's that can be found at gates all over the place. But lets say it will be a problem... so simply move the wreck an AU or two away and add a line in the desc that the wreck was towed to where it is by the winners as to not affect the nearby gate, simple.

Name of pilot + name of ship + make it scan-able. You scan - scan picks up some unidentified massive object. You warp to it, and there remains a Desolate Hulk. You identify the Desolate Hulk. Description - Darwinian somethingorother, first legitimate titan kill, piloted by Shrike, and flown by <player-a>, <player-b>, <player-c>, <player-d>, <player-e>, <player-f>, and <player-g>, irl.

Yeah they shouldn't be monuments that everyone can see on the grid, but at least make them scannable so if you already know they are there then you can go find them. And in the description say how they went down. Like Sir JoJo self-destructed his titan so you'd remember him instead of giving it to his buddies.

wow this sounds like a good idea, I don't think I will ever visit it because holy heck it is all the way out in the land of complete death where they kill you for no reason at all but the idea of permanent monuments for stuff that players did to other players seems like a very good thing to do.
edit: hey maybe I could sneak out there in my cheetah, that would be bad ass
what is it, like 70 jumps from empire or some thing?

Either remove the existing titan wreck or add this one. Otherwise it would appear that you favor one side's kills more than the other's.

I don't see any good reason why there should be monuments for titan kills beyond the first (or first of each race). This seems to be all about "BoB got a monument so we demand one too!", and trying to come up with arbitrary excuses how 3rd kill is more worth than 1st to justify the cause. Monument or not, the kill won't be forgotten, so why don't you lot stop trying to set up another episode of "CCP is biased!" and go kill some more titans.

The 3rd Titan is the first titan that died while fighting. Like they are supposed to. Thats pretty monument-worthy IMO.
You can take that as an attack on the killers of the first 2. A credit to the pilot of the 3rd. Or an attack on the pilots of the first 2. Take your pick

True, the first two were killed using sneaky tactics. On the other hand the third one was killed after titans had been nerfed. How does that fit into the equation of how much each kill is worth? We could spend 20 pages arguing about this, but the bottom line is that all three were legit kills.

Hey, how about a clue on how many more additional months you're going to be thinking about it. At the moment all those posts equate to nothing more then 'no comment'.

Apparently we're not on the same page here. We've made no official announcement on whether we're actually doing this for all titan wrecks or not (unlike Steve, who we said we would make a permanent wreck for due to it being the first titan down). Hence I cannot give you any approximated ETA. On subject I can promise you that I will never, ever, ever, give you an ETA on something I'm not the only person involved in. I don't make promises on behalf of my co-workers.

Thankfully you never worked at BurgerKing then.

Erm, I can think of many better reasons to be thankful for never having worked there. But yeah, software development protocols applied to flipping burgers is probably not going to give you the best results.

Yes, and until the standard operating procedure of Goons is successful, and we get CCP to cave-in to our request by browbeating them to death on the forums, I'll keep senselessly bumping this thread up.
PS. DOS attacks are forthcoming.
