I wonder if the gank ship losses are reimbursable through the New Order?

Heck, that'd be like getting paid to gank.

Code - making a big deal out of the easiest kills in new Eden.

Pathetic.


Well, in this massive MMO they would only have 3 alternatives; WH space, low sec and null - guess what...

Also, wonder why they wouldn't take on a real challenge, like that thing everyone keeps referring to that needs to be downsized - that blue doughnut!

Title led me to believe this was about a pvp tournament won by a Venture.

Who put the goat in there?

Sooo.... player retention problems in a game where people run a month-long "pocket change for baby kicking"-competition? Couldn't possibly be connected because PLAYER MADE CONTENT Roll

As an added bonus Code Alliance is willing to give another plex to the youngest venture pilot killer during the competition!

This part is idiotic.

The rest, I hope you all have fun with it.

The encouragement to specifically target new players, that's just dumb.

Ventures.... Sad. You can slam in some insults with it, but the thread and my fellow players' opinions are clear enuff.

Seems the CFC bribe didn't do you guys any good.

September will be about ibisses right?

Probably too busy to actually do much of this, but if I do kill a Venture and then find out they are legitimately a new player, not a bot, I'll happily give them advice on how to replace the lost ship (almost no rookies know they can run the other 11 starter agents if they want for new ships), and how to protect themselves in future.

Most Ventures are not, however, flown by new players.

Wow the outrage is palpable already and the competition hasn't even started yet.

I might like to donate some stuff (maybe a plex or something) to the prize pool. I might not be the only one willing to do so. Who do I talk to about organising it?

1 plex for 30 days of killing ventures? surely code could spare a better prize than 1 plex


Why dont you offer something to go along with first prize?


because its not my competition, by the time you kill all the ventures in highsec losing catalysts everytime then the plex isnt even going to cover what you lost to concord so not really any incentive to do this, the amount of money you guys pull in from ganking freighters you would think you would create a prize a little more worthwhile

Ah, dammit. I just killed like, four of them before I realized it's the 30th.

Anyone got a decent Venture fit?

Thinking DCU 2, Med extender, couple of Invul hardners. Maybe Neuts in high & ECM drones? Would that survive long enough for Concord to show up?

How about a proper competition?

Like... shooting scanning frigs of gankers?
We do that occasionally. These idiots sit afk at the gate.....


I'll gather some money up ... any donations?
