11 titian wrecks out of 75? With the death toll of capitals in the hundreds I expected the site to at least somewhat represent for the scale of carnage, suffice to say it does not. Please fix this.

It's a monument to the fight, not the remaining wrecks.

Some folks wouldn't be happy if you hung them with a gold rope.

We're getting something that we cannot actually demand - only request. Why don't you be as gracious as CCP is being, and accept what they give us with gratitude?

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

I agree with you. Some people are a little dense and will never understand (epeen). It's too bad.

Its only something that has peaked the interest of possibly hundreds (maybe upwards of a thousand) new potential players for CCP. The least they could do his have the site better represent the true scale of the event that actually occurred.

By the time the historical preservation committee arrived 64 wrecks had already been salvaged or shot.

Edit:
I have it on good authority that concord, usually not present in nullsec, was called in to exterminate a Ferangi infestation. Concord means business when it comes to keeping aliens from other universes out of the sand box.

Concord decided to only leave a few wrecks for all to see:

I salvaged the rest before I got podded. Good stuff.

The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse [lady of commercial virtue]. We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.- James Nicoll

An underwhelming monument.

I say they dump the remaining wrecks into the area.

Sheit. I'm agreeing with a goon. This is a strange world.

Had me a trip over with some corpmates, and i to feel the site was small.. It should also consist of some supers and dreadnaughts, seeing over 300 of those went down..

You know what, guys?

Every time any little thing happens in this game, the people involved want a frikken parade and a system named after them. This is just the latest in the biggest battle thing. It's not anywhere near as big as the ones in the future will be. Since the beginning, the size of battles has pushed the boundaries of the technology to host them.

Do you really think CCP isn't going to keep updating their hardware? A simple skirmish these days would have broken the server a few years ago and by the same token this latest battle won't even match a10th of the size of the battles Tranquility will be carrying in the future.

TLDR: Be happy with what you got and HTFU!

It's a very cool thing CCP did here folks.

Not to nit pick but if you could make B-R permanently 10% tidi a lot of us would get a chuckle out of that. P

Seems that it was something or nothing...

This is something, not nothing.

I think it's pretty great that CCP gave a o7 to the fight in B-R that will be permanent part of the game history.


Thanks CCP !


BTW, next time you want to ***** about CCP, you'll have a second monument to think about shooting in protest over whatever.

You guys don't understand, there has to be a whine quota that needs to be filled.

I mean now we can't whine about drones and supercaps, so we have to get creative.

goddamn.. it's true. Eve players will moan about literally anything. CCP devs must be some of the thickest skinned people on the face of the earth to deal with this whiny **** day in and day out.
