:Update with new Livestream plan!:

Hi everyone. After our very successful Devs vs Players frigate battle on Duality earlier this release we have decided to run another similar event focused on Cruisers.

I'm going to live stream the event on the CCP Own3d.tv channel for your viewing pleasure!

A number of Devs including myself will be playing on Buckingham this Thursday the 15th of November starting at 16:00 Eve time. We'll start off the event with some organized fleets against whatever you can throw at us, then afterwords it should be pretty easy for all of you to find devs for casual 1v1s or skirmishes.

For the first part of the event the plan is to spawn a medium FW complex in 6-C that will just allow T1 and T2 cruisers, destroyers and frigates inside.

Last time the Devs were the undisputed champions so I think the players need to bring their A game this week to regain some pride.

It was a ton of fun last time so I hope you'll all come back this Thursday and take us on!

Mhmmm..We'll see !

I look forward to this.

If anything, could you please try Omens and Mallers ? I think that they're not really performing as they should be.

But maybe that's just me.

Dev Hax?

If they state that they want to test cruisers by fire (and the wrath of their subscribers).

I can see them taking out some quite drastic measures against people who try to intervene ...

So survive the first wave (with enough cruisers stashed).

And then decide which dev you want to kill the most.

I demand a scoreboard to be setup so we can see who's the best Dev Killer Twisted


Edit: Before someone else asks - Is there going to be any "rewards" (Free spz) for taking part? - Might be worth putting the answer in the OP

Only kids bother with scoreboards.

Decide which dev you want you kill, and do it ;)

There won't be free SP for taking part in the Thursday event, however the mass test later today does give free SP.

I used to run a Rattler in L4 missions.

So, yes, it will be fun Twisted
