Also grr hotdropers... you know who...



Supposedly CCP will be moving the ship into an incursion system, so no hotdrops.


I do hope this is true. Hopefully they do it on the weekend instead of a weekday at 21:00

This was lame.
Clearly no, or poor preparation. TiDi I can deal with, reality of the game.. But if you are gonna tell people that the ship is somewhere, you should be right..

No Cyno when you said there would be.. hell it's 25min later and it STILL hasn't shown up.. yet troll cyno's are up..

And wtf.. warp to a Cyno and take a GATE? Few BS's and that'll be a death zone for anyone in a small ship?

30min later and now you change the location where you are telling people it should be? I mean come on..

Oh and the state of your channel, Announcement at 2100.. except there wasn't, just spam and trolling..

Very disappointed in the whole thing.. could have been loads of fun.

It seems they did not allocate enough resources again to make this anyway shape or form to make this anything anyone could really get into even knowing how big these things get.

Local reached 4.9k for me & then I blacked out Sad

As I intend to write a report on this, anyone who has links screenshots or can share his combatstories in Nisuwa through ingame mail, I would appreciate it greatly!

Additional info like max number of local & various fleets present are also appreciated (Spectre, russian Tornado/Talwar fleet, Gorgons, etc)

Redemption Road has a NPSI fleet of about 50 in the system right now. Local count is at 4,620, and, of course, 10% TiDi. For many of our fleet, it took well over 10 minutes to get modules to respond once they got on grid with the Rev, but once they did start responding, they responded as expected in 10% TiDi.

None of our fleet have had black screen issues (yet).

At the time of this post, the Revenant is at 80% shields. At this rate, it's going to take hours to kill lol!

Another fail event ..oh well Roll

Why you couldn't lock system at 2.5 k people ?




Edit:Scratch that, We just kill whored on the Revenant and we went gate camping outside Nisuwa, We had so much fun. These Tidi event reminds me every time not to join any nullsec coalitions.

Lady Areola Fappington:  Solo PVP isn't dead!  You just need to make sure you have your booster, remote rep, cyno, and emergency Falcon alts logged in and ready before you do any solo PVPing.

And I might say that had I even been able to SEE the ship once..

But no, they would say go here in the channel supposedly telling you want to do, only it wouldn't be true.. it wasn't their cyno, it was some players with battleships or frigs waiting to kill everything.

If they advertised it as "I'll be in this system, have fun" I wouldn't be complaining.. well, not to them, just to CCP for being unable to use eve for over 3 hrs.. But it wasn't.. they said in chat Where, When, and it wasn't even followed by them. They didn't say the system when they said they would, they did say where to go IN system when they said they would, only that place never existed.. there was no cyno with a gate to get to the rev.. half hr later they said another place, but by then it was too late.

I'd of had more fun if they just said "I'll be in lowsec" or "It'll be in Nisuwa".. cause they I wouldn't have gone places I shouldn't have, like a cyno at 0, expecting to take a gate and trying to get there before Smartbombing BS's, because they they said so..

The Event as a concept was fine, it was failure in communication that ruined it for me. One of the first people in sys, died to following instructions, and was left unable to even see the ship because by the time I was able to dock, build a new ship, undock, and warp there, it was gone.

Dear Gentle Space Folk,


For those of you who missed out, I am sorry. We had a few technical glitches. One of which was all the low sec incursions got finished less than 6 hours before the event started. We had to go to Plan B, then Plan C, and finally Plan D.

For those of you who made it in and helped kill the Revanant. Thank-you for your participation and patience!!!! You guys are amazing! We thought this would be popular, but over 4800 players in local....wow.


Those wondering who the PLEX went to...we're still waiting on the Revenant killmail to come though. Please be paitent. Worst case, we have the combat log of the entire event, so we will be able to construct something from that. But I have faith that the CCP tech wizards will pull a KM out of the burning wreck that is what's left of the Nisuwa node.

After the amazing success of this event, expect more, on the weekend, in different time-zones.



Thankyou again for your support and patience.


Eve-Bet

P.S. Remember, Alliance Tournament XII finals on this weekend!!!! http://eve-bet.com is the place to wager!

Once we hit Nisuwa we only managed to kill 3 things in 3 hours with a fleet of 200 alpha-hurricanes due to the lag.

Sometimes we shot at ships, they MJD'd away or we lost lock... and then an hour later we'd lock them up again to find our weapons were still theoretically firing at them but causing no damage.

At least it was fun to be there and help to kill this ship.
Big thx

A little bit more resources on the node would be better next time Roll

CCP hurry up with the KM Blink

PS.: If you are not on enough killmails you did it wrong.

Had fun, would do it again, was awesome hanging out with my ink bros especially our FC, and the anticipation just before the brawling happened was thrilling

What other game do you get 4800 people in the same space blowing the crap out of each other for mega lols! Cheers eve-bet.

ejecting does not prevent km generation - unless he ejected when the structure was very very low
