Freyya GeoCorp. Paxton Federation	Posted - 2009.01.29 16:28:00 - [1] Has anyone actually put any thought into it who this new race might be? Could it be the illusive Einheduani? Or could it be the Talocan, Sleepers, Takhmal and Yan Yung? Could it be both as a member of this forum long ago posted the thought that the 4 ancient races merged into the Einheduani? If either is so; their tech is calculated to be at least T10 and way above since they are indeed the first ones to set foot in New Eden thousands of years ago. Seeing as this would make them near invincible compared to our tech it seems illogical to have them as the new race, although it would fit in with what was mentioned in a devblog that we all know (or should) that we where not the first ones in New Eden and that others have set foot here before us. IF it is indeed the aforementioned races then why didn't the Jove follow after them into the wormholes since they are thought to be about the same age as the other races (give or take a few hundred to thousand years). Discuss.. ___________ NOW COLLECTING ISD AND CCP AUTOGRAPHS It'll be worth something someday. -Rauth

Scott Ryder Amarr Dark Skullz Empire	Posted - 2009.01.29 16:56:00 - [6] I wonder if those new wormholes will be farmed just like plexes have done? Camped down...
Nicholas Barker Black Nova Corp Band of Brothers	Posted - 2009.01.29 17:05:00 - [7] basicly they're a new faction of npcs to shoot at, not a playable race. ------
Rodj Blake Amarr PIE Inc.	Posted - 2009.01.29 17:08:00 - [8] And I for one welcome our new Sleeper overlords. Dulce et decorum est pro imperium mori.
Sidus Isaacs Gallente	Posted - 2009.01.29 17:10:00 - [9] Originally by: Scott Ryder I wonder if those new wormholes will be farmed just like plexes have done? Camped down... NO, I do not belive so, not witht he random entranve points and wormhole colapses. This sytem is not static, but more dynamic.
Ottersmacker 24th Imperial Crusade	Posted - 2009.01.29 17:13:00 - [10] So this is why in the fanfest videos one could notice devs saying things about space and time in such a clever/spooky manner.. :o the wormholes somehow mess with time as well?

Camped down... NO, I do not belive so, not witht he random entranve points and wormhole colapses. This sytem is not static, but more dynamic. That and of course the option to engage the farmers at will.
Andrea Erlang Caldari Erlang Biolabs	Posted - 2009.01.29 17:15:00 - [12] Quote: As such, with the expansion arrival, expect various pirate battleships to arrive into low-security areas to ambush the unprepared pilots. Of course, the nature and type of these new spawns will be put into scale towards null and high-security space as we plan to even out rewards, not destabilize them further. To be clear, no pirate battleship spawn will make it into high-security space. Does this mean what I think it means?! Boosting low-sec? Nerfing high-sec?

To be clear, no pirate battleship spawn will make it into high-security space. Does this mean what I think it means?! Boosting low-sec? Nerfing high-sec? Sounds like a boost to losec by adding BS spawns and not a nerf to hisec. Sounds like BS will remain in hisec missions but not spawn in hisec belts.

Fek sleepers, this is far more intersting indeed!
Faife Federation of Freedom Fighters	Posted - 2009.01.29 17:29:00 - [15] awesome to having NPCs with actual player ships and ability to call targets. hoping it works well and gets applied to all NPCs with time.
Freyya GeoCorp. Paxton Federation	Posted - 2009.01.29 18:19:00 - [16] I'm going to read it as a boost to lowsec a bit but keeping the rewards in line with the respective security rating, somewhat at least.. It is also awesome that the new Sleepers will be able to employ tactics not uncommon in PvP although i wonder what kind of balance is built in to not make them overpowered or facilitate the need to go blob NPC's... As said before this will probably be explained a bit in future devblogs. Anyways, to keep my topic somewhat on topic; I am going to have to correct my previous statement that they are calculated to have T10 technology. According to lore they had somewhat better than T2 and more advanced in special areas around a thousand years ago. I'm going to assume it was at least above T3 in the more advanced areas. Given the fact that they've had a thousand years to evolve and upgrade their tech i do think it's a safe bet that they could be well above tech 10 if we keep the current growth of our tech over the last years. Revisiting on my OP i am now wondering why only the Sleepers are coming to the playground and where the other ancient races stand. My intrigues towards the Enheduanni are growing largely as well since i too was starting to assume the 4 ancient races evolved into them.

Megan Maynard Minmatar Out of Order	Posted - 2009.01.29 18:54:00 - [18] FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS AWESOME. PLEASE have BS rats and support in low spawn at gates to nab travels lol. How awesome would it be to make carebears actually have to worry about gates when real pirates aren't around lol. Escalating ambushes by npc's at low sec gates would be freaking awesome. I want a fight when I come into system, I deserve it dangit.

Like in Falconry? Correct, i believe it was hinted at a little bit more detailed in a/some later posts in the "GIVE US NPC AI" thread. Could be wrong though but it's posted somewhere... ___________ NOW COLLECTING ISD AND CCP AUTOGRAPHS It'll be worth something someday. -Rauth

Rainhailer Gallente Einherjar Rising Cry Havoc.

You're a complete idiot. The systems wormholes link to are static but the ways in are dynamic. They lead to ENTIRE SYSTEMS not complexes.
Armoured C Gallente Federation of Freedom Fighters Executive Outcomes	Posted - 2009.01.29 19:24:00 - [22] wormholes arnt static , once they close the will go somewhere else, they are static and there connection until the timer/mass thing runs out then you will have to go find another one ...if you made it out of the last one of course This week EvE Life: Fleet fighting blog is now available

Or could it be the Talocan, Sleepers, Takhmal and Yan Yung? It is the Sleepers accordingly to the newest devblog. So better get your sleeper technology skillbook ready!

We need to learn about the Sleepers by contact with them, not dev blog spoilers.

Par'Gellen Gallente	Posted - 2009.01.29 19:36:00 - [27] Edited by: Par''Gellen on 29/01/2009 19:36:18 Can anyone link some official info on the Sleepers? I can't find them (or any of the other races mentioned) anywhere on this site --- To err is human. But it shouldn't be the company motto...
Becq Starforged Minmatar Ship Construction Services Ushra'Khan	Posted - 2009.01.29 19:50:00 - [28] The existing NPC races typically come in basic and elite version. Given this, will the elite version of the Sleepers be the Bogeymen? Regarding information on the Sleepers, I think the bulk of that was introduced through the COSMOS missions; specifically the Matari ones. I wouldn't be surprised if this was collected somewhere, but I don't know where. -- Becq Starforged The Flame of Freedom Burns On!
Ker HarSol Minmatar Zip - I	Posted - 2009.01.29 19:57:00 - [29] Originally by: Par'Gellen Can anyone link some official info on the Sleepers? I can't find them (or any of the other races mentioned) anywhere on this site It is reasonable to expect that the sleeper technology skillbook will be necessary to build the new t3 stuff. Maybe more skills necessary, but that one at least. There is already a shortage and prices going up. LOL
Gneeznow Minmatar Goo Spew	Posted - 2009.01.29 19:59:00 - [30] do they have a bounty? can you raise sec status by pew'ing them? thats what I want to know!
