    Rubicon winter expansion features


    Background story and in-game news
    • Pirate factions express interest in Covert Research Tools
    • Some pirate factions in New Eden, namely the Angel Cartel, Blood Raiders, Guristas, Intaki Syndicate, and Serpentis, show interest in covert research tools found in the Ghost Sites.

    • Clashes on Caldari Prime quelled by Mordu's Legion
    • Several clashes occurred along borders between Gallente- and Caldari-held districts on Caldari Prime over the weekend, but were swiftly dealt with by Mordu's Legion. Administrative officials for the districts were quick to praise Mordu's Legion for their handling of the situation.

    • Capsuleers Rally to Aid Destruction of Covert Research Facilities
    • Capsuleers residing in Empire space took up arms in an attempt to eradicate newly discovered Serpentis and Angel research facilities located within the depths of Syndicate and Curse. After vicious battles the more than 650 pilots were defeated as pirate defense forces proved too adept and bought time to recover their research projects and to evacuate the scientists.

    Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night stays CCP Phantom from the swift completion of the weekly updates.

    CCP Greyscale: As to starbases, we agree it's pretty terrible, but we don't want to delay the entire release just for this one factor.

    THis week in Eve

    Still not doing anything noteworthy about fixing POS's

    Also not Fixing Corp Roles

    Or rebalancing ASB

    Or letting us choose to turn off clouds

    Its not possible to please all the people all the time, but it sure as hell is possible to Displease all the people, most of the time.
