wat?

If anything, the general cowardice to commit supers from cfc helps pl/nc/n3, as the amount of scrubcaps needed to kill their supers will crash the node everytime.





Yes jumping in a 200 man super fleet to that broken node would have really sealed the deal, if only we was reading the stream chat last night where I am sure you was eagly informing every pubbie that would listen :( Alas we will make sure to look for you next time.

Fun fact, the titan would have made it out eventually ( most likely downtime ) the only thing we was denied was more carrier kills, it is however a shame the 6 hour battle never got to reach a player made conclusion. Either way a good test run and I look forward to the largest group of capital **** holders throwing them around sometime soon and then posting tears about numbers.

To the OP. when you see the server slowly snapping for 4 hours its clearly not bias and its clearly nothing like the fat finger incident .

Wait, a CFC post that isn't obviously lying and/or grossly misrepresenting facts?
I'm going to +1 on that.

We were able to move our carriers out and in again each time the titans were in trouble, and the only thing that might have changed until DT was exhaustion levels (Which was why I had to leave early. Sad).
So for the unreasonable CFC posters, please read this post here.

Your complaints might gain some legitimacy!

Most CFC see it this way. It sucks balls but this is what happens when you dogpile into an un-reinforced node.

The real question here is why would go into such a fight at all?

You know its going to be soul crushing lag and take 8+ hours to kill anything.

No one to blame but yourself if you went there and lagged out.

Not today spaghetti.

It's really hard to be sympathetic to someone who's part of the largest powerbloc in the game complaining about not being able to dogpile infinite ships into a system. This is the problem with massive coalitions, the game gets broken down into single warzone scenarios like we have now.

You know the funniest part is if SOLAR didn't coward out their dreads you probably would have killed at least one titan.

Yes, just like when Asakai crashed so CFC-capitals were saved from getting butchered in a fight with over 3k people involved. Oh, wait... that node didn't crash. I guess we all can't be that lucky to have nodes accidently taken offline or crashing when being on the losing side. 1 time stable and 2 times going offline with the same side benefitting. 3-0, what are the odds?

I love it when this happens, the best part is if it had been the other way around the reactions would still be exactly the same.

Just swap the corp and alliance tickers. P

I was there from beginning to end being the last survivor of our 30 man bomber fleet. Tidi thing sucks...

CCP this isn't acceptable play.. You can't hide and pretend massive fleet battle of hundreds if not thousands of players are going to get involved. You need to make changes in eve to make it more playable for players.. As fun as it was it was more tedious to have to wait 20mins to move or to shoot or just wait a cycle to end...

CCP you need to fix or expand or do whatever you need to do for the future of massive space battles. Tidi isn't working, all its doing is a cheap method to save your hardware from melting..

Being the last bomber pilot I was disappointed that CFC couldn't kill me.. I was hoping for a quick pod return.... sadly I had to fly back... with some free lootz ... Come on CFC get your **** together.. P

We apologise for failing to helicoperdick your entire fleet, those responsible have been forced to sit through 2 hours of WI. theory crafting and SMA threads.

Wouldn't it be better to make them wait 9 hours in tidi again?

CCP should give up on tidi, and somehow make all the servers to work flawlessly at a cap of 2000 people per system.


No matter what they should upgrade the hardware or the nodes or whatever and set a limit of people per system.

**** the tidi and all this bullshit.


Upgrade hardware if needed and set a limit per system.
That will create new strategies too.

thumbs up if you like :))))

Right, first thing, this has made a wonderful read to wake up to, many thanks for everyones input.

Now lets get down to business, we have clearly established the OP is about the bluntest knife in the entire of new eden, not going to be winning any spelling bee's are we. As for the argument CCP need to invest in better hardware, if you'd take an interest in the game, and watch some of the other presentations done at Fanfest you'd know that CCP have (I may not be 100% accurate on this anymore) atleast at the time of the presentation the most powerful server cluster in the entire gaming industry, their most recent purchase was servers that at the time only existed inside the military, but please tell me more about how CCP need to invest in hardware that doesn't actually exist yet.

As for Sladislov, I do love how you're sitting here posting in this thread like you're a big old school Black Legion member, but wait, you are one of those Flavour of the Month monkeys who suddenly felt the need to leave Sniggwaffe shortly after the Revenant died, and join Black Legion.

As for the general reason for the crash, this is what happens when you try to bring even more people into a system that wasn't reinforced, there is little CCP can do to improve, definitely nothing hardware, there may be software improvements that can be done to optimize performance, but very little can be done in general to improve performance until hardweare develops more. and even then, as CCP have said, they make servers that can handle 1500, we bring 2000, they make the server handle 2000, we bring 2500, they're fighting a loosing battle.

Finally, I am so pissed, I was sat at work watching the Mad Ani twitch stream screaming at my phone that I was missing it all.
