CCP F'd up or intentionally sent the fleets their? Their are 1000's of other systems they could have picked, Even a island for example.


That i do not know, we're quite as baffled as you guys really. If they intentionally did it its pretty ****** up, if they just ****** up it kind of speaks of incompetence really, since that means the event team did not even bother informing themselves where the big powerblocks are currently fighting and where their stagings are.

I giggled manically when wave after wave after wave came at us in this narrow passage.

10/10 woud fight again.


CSM member by any chance?


You're assuming an awful lot of malice where stupidity will do just fine.


I normally base my statements off of past knowledge of actions and we all know this has happened before.


PL has a CSM rep and a staging system right next door, yet you got fed to RAZOR? You dumb, son.

Its almost like the theme for the upcoming expansion states that capusleers are giving the middle finger to the main space empires. Not forshadowing what was going to happen at all here people.

AT ALL.

Ok just took part of the event. This simply put was a set up by CCP to hand kills to lowsec!

How did RAZOR get set up that quickly of it wasn't for time dilation allowing then nearly an hour get get their ahead of the dilated systems! Our fleet jumped in to what was simply put... a set up. Was this CCP's present to RAZOR ? perhaps all the goons complaining about "carebears" was too much and the Dev's gave in?

I love PVP, i love the game. But this set up is utterly unacceptable!

Its this sort of **** that makes people stop playing Eve. CCP you should be ashamed of yourself.


We are deployed to Doril so took like 3 min to set up the gate camp when we knew they where going through there.



We went into syndicate from the placid region. Didn't see any gate camps. Saw some TiDi. We shot some people in null then went back home in lowsec.

I think this was a CCP Troll

Look at it this way.

They take H.S Corps into the corner of the power base of major alliances. Get us all killed intentionally to start a large battle between the power blocks as they are all waiting to try and kill us. Perfect way to lower PLEX costs and get isk out of circulation.




Cry me a river. There was no conspiracy, And admit it you were there to get the loot. We didnt tell you to come into our yard to play ,you did that on your own. For a big fight this was alota fun i was logiing and keeping my people alive so it wasnt any free lunch on my or razors part.

So I guess instead of complaining and raging, its more like Thank You Razor, Thank You Goons and Pandemic Legion - and Thank You fellow High Sec'ers to give us the reason for the upcoming expansions features. Without you we would have an expansion without lore to back it up, Thank you ...

Thank You ...

Whenever you want just come to doril. Razor is always up to support Eve Lore with gunpowder diplomacy

I especially like the bit where the event collapsed into disarray and failure, and then CCP handwaved a 'oh the target self destructed anyway just because REASONS' because the people running them are utterly incompetent and have to railroad their Live Events into a pre-determined outcome regardless of what actually happens in game.

See its sounding more like incompetence also played a massive part. Thing is this is a PVE event where they threw PVP into the mix. But hardly anyone got to see the PVE event and have no idea what the launch event was meant to be lol

:CCP:

Oh man.. It really made my day.. And I was afraid that I could miss the event.. TY CCP for free kills and content.

Bringing hisec noobs to biggest sovwar zone... I really wonder the event guys even playing the same game with us..

See, I kind of view that as a cop out. CCP should have made it that failure cost something - lore wise or in game mechanics. Having it self destruct robs both sides of any real meaning. Sure the pirates/null seccers were more about the pew-pew, but having something to show for it would have made their smugness even greater. If the carebears had pushed on and destroyed the facility, they would have had a sense of accomplishment which no one could have taken away from them. Imagine if the carebears did have that sense of accomplishment. Imagine them feeling like they could go into low, null and not only survive, but come out feeling great about what they did.

This is why people think they intentionally did this. I honestly cant believe that CCP don't have a clue what is going on in LS. Even the humble part time noob can watch Eve News and see the massive battles and locations.

Exactly 0 isk was removed from the economy by this you colossal dumbshits.

While I disapprove of the sentiment, this is correct. No isk was lost in the making of this fiasco. Ships were lost so ship prices will rise (if this was any significant number, which I doubt it was), but the only isk removed from the economy was clone replacements, whic is not a very significant amount.

Also, to everyone who is annoyed by this, what did you expect to happen? Staging information was available, and this is ccp we're talking about. They like stuff going boom.

The event was "The Empires Needs Your Help!" - Well where the heck was the empire? CCP slapped the high sec community in the face.

CCP ran a story based event and on purpose lead the group to null-sec where they KNEW everyone would die. You gave us no warning!

99% of us didn't even have time to activate a single module or defend ourselves whatsoever. This is the worst "event" I have ever attended in a MMO in my entire life. CCP trolled their own player-base. Shameful.

CCP knew exactly what they were doing here. Lambs to the slaughter. I knew I would lose my ship today. I was ready for a fight. I wasn't ready to be lead to the slaughter without even a fight and LEAD into the lions den by CCP.

Honestly there was no info on rzr side by ccp or anyone until our spy network informed us.

Well dont search big conspiracy behid this as its just the same CCP as always.. Its 10 years but still they dont have a single clue about this game and playerbase. No more
