The players are the content, it was driven by CCP's use of server mechanics, so it would be CCP-driven content.

They convene a council of elders, and consult the spirits.

Seriously, what kind of question is this? You seem to have a sort of fantasyworld idea about what goes on behind the scenes at game studios. They probably looked at the situation, said "This could get bad," and decided to do something.

Not everything goes to plan. Mistakes happen. Anyone who doesn't understand this and tries to make a big deal out of what happened here is nothing short of a whining, simpering manchild.

I WAS THERE !!!! over 7 hours of fighting . The only thing I can complain about is some one saying test was crushing us.
Rokhs were melting like butter in a frying pan. Aint no way we were being crushed. But Test got real lucky on this one. At least they still have a few carriers left..... Well for now .

According to the metrics that you played by in the war for Tribute, they have won this war.
They've fought every fight outnumbered, and they've killed far more of you than they've lost.
What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

You mean to say we have over 1000 goons posting now?

That seems interesting.

The players are the content, it was driven by CCP's use of server mechanics, so it would be CCP-driven content.


It requires players in some form or another. Hence "player driven" P

I'm gonna sperg a little but will you be considering taking action on the carriers that were tackled, trapped, caged or will you be letting them get away and off scot-free?


They're going to do exactly what they did to those CFC dreads we had tackled the other week.


If they were tackled and dying when the server went down, like yours were, then you should be gifted the kills IMO!


Cool then lets talk about the 10+ CFC supercarriers that were saved from the server crashing. Also the multiple fleets of subs and caps CFC-side. Not to mention, that SBU we were going to kill but server crashed and it went through and reinforced a key system.

Kinda sucks when it happens to ya doesn't it?


again if that's for real then you should have the kills!


But we're not going to get them! And neither are you in this case! Woo this is fun!

Structures were involved as well (the ihub).

Structure-driven.

Also, bubble driven since those were tackling the carriers. Until they just disappeared from space that is.

I got bat-phoned, and was on my way home from the Holiday to join in on the action. (I skipped out on family to join this battle)

This is a major mess-up by CCP. Don't fix it if it isn't broken.

However, with that said, the benefit of doubt must be given.
I forgive you.

I do wish CCP could compensate in some way.

It will happen again. One side will complain and the other side will laugh. Nothing will change and nothing will get done about it.

Because CCP can force players to log online when they don't want to, it's part of the EULA.

Why did it take you over 6 hours to push the magic button?

Did you do it to improve our play or to improve the visual game mechanics of those watching?

I think you got greedy seeing all those potential subscribers to the game watching the tidi lag fest twitch stream and thought, 'we better do something here to reel them in'.

I just can't think of any other reason why you did it at such a pinnacle moment in an already 6 hour long fight.

It was told numerous times and from a long time ago to tell CCP about those events which was not done.

Does disconnecting when you're agressed require you to be online for your ship to be in space?

Something about a log off timer.... but logs show nothing

If only we had known the future.

Then we wouldn't have bothered to tackle those carriers.

Nope, but you seem to be striving to emulate the sort of post-quantity that would happen in that case.

They shouldn't kick them offline then without aggro timers and wipe the ships from space. If those players decided to log off on their own their ships would still remain in space and in those bubbles.

Instead they were completely wiped, both fleets kicked from space, thus giving the losing side advantage and saving their ships in the process. They can't force anyone to log in, true, but they shouldn't cause anyone to cleanly log off in the middle of a fight.

Who is to say what would have been outcome of that? Maybe it would have escalated further, or one side could have completely gotten wiped out and war in Fountain would have been changed. This way, those ships saved by the derp live to see another day and SRP people let off sigh of relief.

You messed up the code.

It's ok, CCP does it too.

No wait, you fixed it!

That won't happen with eve online though...
