Would you still like to have an Armageddon Day if you can't keep the skillpoints which were trained during that day?

only if I get a some unassigned SP for compensation the day after Twisted

24h of free SP the day after, and do that.
And disable overview and names out of your fleet for the day =p

Armageddon day would be awesome! I remember the one that happened back in 2007, with dreads and carriers fighting in Jita 4-4... the lag was unbearable with 200 people but it was loads of fun until the fleet of Dev titans came in and used the old AoE DD on everyone Lol

Yes. But it doesn't have to be either/or. You have a mechanism to give free SPs. You could do a 24 hour Armageddon day, during which we would all agree to have your future babies, then give everyone 3000 skill points (or whatever) lapsed in the interim...

I want it with no resets of anything.


Then you'd just have the bears docked up or logged off, and the rest pewpewing with cheap ships they don't care about losing. Boring! I want to spend my money on big expensive ships and then explode them without worrying about money or lost implants or sec status or standings or kill rights or all those other annoyances.

I agree with others that losing 24 hours of training is unacceptable, but that should be easy enough to gift back.

All I would ask is a wee bit of notice so I can be properly fit!

Bring it on!

Just do it on Sisi - as you have in the past. There is no reason to to this on TQ.

It's funny to read all this ... and if they pull it off ...
... read about all the whiners who couldn't log on because of [whatever reason].

Also, it's quite unfair using Singularity for it, because plenty of people won't download around a few gigabyte twice ...


Not against the idea, just believing it's impossible to pull off without annoying most of us.

Altough seriously, it's a very biased present that will pretty much spur hatred in parts of the community ...
... which really shouldn't be the goal.

You guys really **** me off for being so egoistic brats.

If there's some huge update which requires TQ to go offline for a whole day like with the original Armageddon Day, then sure, why not.

Doing it just for the heck of it and disrupting everyone else's regular Eve activities when there's a perfectly good test server people could use for shooting each other risk-free seems a little silly though.

In the past they just used the TQ client connecting to the Sisi server. No need to DL anything:

OR:

You could log into Singularity instead, right after a mass test. Which happen pretty regularly. Also, you may not realize that most ships are seeded in navy stations at 100 ISK a pice. A lot of things are, as a matter of fact. Have at it.

So it goes.

I for one would love to see a free for all everywhere. But then role everything back like it was just a dream or somethin.
