As of DT today, the faction navy response in Luminaire has been deactivated. This means that members of Amarr and Caldari FW corps will not trigger a navy NPC response in the Luminaire system.

(This does NOT affect the police response to crimes and outlaws - CONCORD consequences will still be in effect for now)
To expand a bit on the above reply:

DISABLED: Faction Navy.

The Faction Navy will not respond in Luminaire regardless of your faction status with the Gallente Federation, e.g., regardless of if you are allied with opposing factions.

NOT DISABLED, still in full effect: Faction Police and CONCORD.

The Faction Police is still operating and will respond if pilots with a bad security status enter the system (note, your security status is your standings with CONCORD). Since Luminaire is a 1.0 system then pilots with a security status of -2.0 or worse will be attacked by the Faction Police. For more details, please read http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Security_status#Security_Status_and_Traveling_Restrictions

CONCORD is also still operating and will respond to criminal acts with deadly force. For more details on Crimewatch and CONCORD's response, please read http://community.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&nbid=73443



This is no longer true. Faction Navy is spawning again forcing some of us into stations

So you want to hold this massive event and then set the cap at 1000 people?

You should have move hardware and set up the system for a massive battle. What gives CCP?


I moved some ships to that system for replacements when I lose one and set up a clone there and now you are telling me I can't log in there?

Indeed a good vid is better for marketing then rightfully informing the actuall players.

How could i have missed that.





Allmost all the comments made so far are things that could have been prevented with the right information given BEFORE today instead of slowly dripping it out the day the event is taking place.

We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.

Just had a friendly DED agent in Mies tell us the gate is off.

CCP, thank you for disappointing the huge roleplay fanbase. For the climax of the sansha incursions, we had 1700 people without TiDi in Yulai.

Now, epic change the shape of eve, you cap it to 1000 cutting out anybody who couldnt downtime log in? I am sorry, but what the heck? Systems havent had pop caps like that for years and work fine! We have over 600 people on this gate alone without any TiDi

It really does hurt to how badly you have affected us players. Live events are a major thing for me and a main attraction, yet we get excluded simply because we couldn't downtime login.

To quote Lfod Shi

The ratting itself is PvE. Getting away with it is PvP.

This cap has already been enacted, but we will be dynamically altering it as the server load requires and raising it if everything runs smoothly."

FAIL
Never imagined a game with tens of thousands of subscriptions capping a game wide event at 1000 players...even Jita can support more than that:(


1000 peeps? I thought reinforced nodes in NULL have WAY bigger CAPs, no?

So we can't even have our consolation prize?

That's certainly a nice ****-up on CCP's part.

Stream says it starts at 13:00 Eastern, which is 55 minutes away from now as of this post.
Thus, no stream.

Trying out all the things to do here in Eve - it's quite a checklist. So I made a blog Jakob's Eve Checklist

Correct. But my sources in system tell me RP is happening NOW (and have been for sometime)

For instance, Titan just blapped a DED BS

I have to wonder if the 1,000 pilot cap is because this is a Dust Bunny event as well and that is drawing down resources in addition. And they want to make sure things go smoothly for them.
