Probably the WORST event I've wasted my time on in my 10 years of EVE ...

You mean the usual complete silence about a snafu and the introduction of some irrelevant dev blog on how they are going to change Gal Battleship to have split damage rocket system...

Thanks CCP!


you need to go back to Syndicate to continue getting your ass handed to you by a load of NPC starter corp noobs. Lol


You realize that makes zero sense, right?


it makes plenty.

Yeah it was "fun" jumping into the trap, when CCP said Jump. Warping thru the hardest void i have ever seen was "fun" too.

In all respect, even when i expected the CCP to lead us into the null, I still expected some surprise, like a cyno from empire or wormhole. Now I am really, completely, hugely disappointed it was just a slowboating to the inevitable suicide. This is what you get when you trust CCP. Lol

Custom ship skins, character creator style "repaint". Bring it!

Deeply disappointing. I can get blapped in a gate camp any day of the week. I was expecting something special. I had the pleasure of being in the TVP fleet, a fairly well organized group of 250+ people of which only a handful actually got to the target destination. Went some 70 jumps in a battleship, spent some five+ hours in total getting in position for this event expecting to see and be a part of something unique. It was within CCP's power to take steps to ensure a fair (or at least interesting) fight.

This wasn't a joint-empire strike force, it was CONCORD rallying -loyal- capsuleers and leading them to a slaughter with absolutely no support. So uh, hey, well done CCP. You've got me determined to never assist the Empires in RP again, which I assume was your goal. Shame you had to waste so much of everybody's time to do that.

I had no idea until this event that TIDI slows down the cognitive functions of those who run them.

I'm in no manner a fan of Goons, but the mad this is causing is just so, so good. If you don't want nullsec mechanics or TiDi, skip the event and stay in highsec where you belong.

Screw all you whiners!! I had a choice today to either go outside and rake leaves, or fly with a fleet to null sec.
Guess what? I chose Null sec. I got on a couple of kills, got podded, had fun.
So quit whining and get another ship and get back out there.
Or send all your stuff to me and I'll give it away to people that aren't world class crybabys like all you losers.

OK, I feel better now.



You are the first Highsec player that admitted you have fun. Props, you're winning EvE. If you want to spice up your space life, you are more than welcome to come out and fly with us.

The conversation is wrong. Goons blap people in null... everywhere really. That's what they do. Who cares? If they could blap my 185k ehp tengu I'd be like "f*** me. That's crazy." That would be the end of it.

What sucked about this event for me was sitting in 10% TiDi and getting told by CCP Fozzie to go 20 jumps to stage in another system because reasons, and few jumps into the trip, 10% TiDi all the way, realizing it would take hours and hours. They didn't plan this at all. CCP made terrible decisions throughout the event. Nobody gives a snip about the jackoff alliances blapping people. It was the experience of one of the worst events I've ever been a part of.

I couldn't make it to null to get blapped. I couldn't be bothered with the 9 hour tour of empire. It was just a lame experience.

Signatures should be used responsibly...

Just so you know more than half the people from Meves didn't get killed at all during the event.
We just failed thanks to TiDi to reach the event at all.

So Goons, lost out on lost of extra kills, upset with CCP at all??
Missed out on a potentially much better fight had we all managed to arrive at the nullsec target.

Way to brag about a victory when most people didn't get there from Meves,
not due to gate camps and pvp, but to TiDi and CCP incompetence.

I missed the battle completely, that's why I'm pissed off.

Was I expecting it to go into Low/Null sec? yes.
Was I expecting to die at this event? Yes.
Was I expecting to have to travel for nearly two hours through 10% TIDI? No!

And that's what put me of at this event.
I don't mind to die in this game, I don't expect any fight to be 'fair', but travelling only to hear the event is actually over before you arrive, is no fun at all.

I think it was organised this way to show the utter incompetence of the empires compared to organised capsuleer organisations. If that's correct, then this event was a success. But not fun for me personally.

Edit: And although the event was over, I went to Doril anyway, just for fun and a good laugh. So at least I blew up laughing in the end...Cool

Hilarious CCP incompetence.

Don't worry though, given recent form I'm certain there will be some more of it along very shortly for you to witness!

I will not be doing any more live events with/for ccp, so ccp please dont ask. Extreamely poor planning and direction, I spent more than 2 hrs just getting to the 2nd waypoint. Crap planning, guess thats par for the course on what we can expect from ccp now.

The event was basically CCP ramming a cactus up the asses of the empire fleets...

HOWEVER, that being said, I had a riot of a time. Laughed on TS at the sheer amount of Wat! that was happening. Had even more fun as I jumped into the first null system and saw clusterfuck absolutly everywhere... Sweet jesus it was a massacre... Our FC went silent on comms as did the secondary FC. Some randomer took over and got a sixth of our fleet through to the system with the angel base in it...

My only dissapoinment is I got no kills, although I did get my Drake out alive...

Sure it was a bit of a let down, but I had a laugh...


Edit: As a side note it's probably a good idea for me to not be in any big battles like that until I get my new PC built, my heap'o'crap 10 year old toaster really cant handle it hahaha

Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person."

All these people are saying how bad it was.

I don't disagree. But, I must say I had a blast. Twisted

I was there with corp members, (not RAZOR or Goons) I didn't kill anything, but it was fun.

Like a bad movie, that you still enjoy. Like "God Bless America" like one of my corp mates tell me.

Anyway, that's my two ISK.

Maybe it's the company you keep.

Quit blaming CCP

Our FC jumped 220 pilots into a bubble camp with maybe 100. Rather than select primaries, and start fighting, he told everyone to burn out of bubbles and warp to a diff gate. WTF. Poor execution. If we would have engaged, at LEAST we would have taken a **** load of them with us.

I expected to die...just not while trying to burn out of a bubble fleeing a 100 man gate camp with our 220 man fleet. Derp

By teh way...around 30 made it to the next gate....fail

This event was bad. Epic fail on CCP's part.

I'm not going to rage quit, but I'm cancelling 3 accounts for a month in protest and invite everyone else who was suckered into a gatecamp and abandoned by our CCP fleet commanders to do the same.
