in a C5.

Killed all the aliens then started to play RSI inducing "Find the Red Arrow" game...

I was on the 4th can when they all exploded and disappeared.

I had 3 chars on grid.

Don't remember this happening before today (unless someone can enlighten me?)

Had any cans been opened when you arrived?

did you have a fail ? I remember when it was just on sisi I found that if I failed a hack 1-2 time the can would explode, once it was in game I found it never did that so they might have implemented it on the patch maybe?

but then re reading your post you said all cans exploded was that even the ones you didn't touch or just the cans you had already hacked?

The site was untouched before I warped to it and all the cans exploded when I had only interacted with 5 of them.

When you try to open the first can a timer starts, when the timer runs out, the site will despawn and all the can's dissarpear/explode.

I believe the despawn mechanic have been there pre odyssey but wasn't as relevant, since cracking can's didn't take that long.

With CCP implementing the "We want you to kill yourself from boredom"-minigame cracking the cans take so long, that you might need friends to crack the cans in time.

All above is speculation based on experience :)

This is my experience too. Although you do get a decent amount of time for it. Only had the cans explode in my face when I was half afk doing it. Unfortunatly I really can't remember if the site took me 15min or 45 min before cans dissapeared. :/ Maybe OP remembers how long before the cans went poof?

AGREE! Site despawns too quick related to time what is needed to crack cans.. I just simply hate the new game, maybe its fun in lowsec but in WH's it kills the fun. Also it takes 5x times to run data/relic site nowadays.
