It'll be a bunch of capsuleers sitting in a bar mulling over their drinks looking really depressed. One looks up and asks the other:"How long?" - "Three years." the other responds, making a pained grimace. The one asking nods sympathetically and takes a deep sip from his drink. "Three years." he repeats, more to himself, taking another sip.

Shite sort of happens when you fire a bunch of people to pay for the mistakes of pissing away resources on other failed efforts.

So don't expect much in the way of inspirational videos. Evil

Although if somebody in the PR department has half a clue, there will be one for the "Legion" -- might have the much needed side effect of boosting NP interest in EVE, too. Sure as Hell couldn't hurt, at this point.

No more 'expansion' trailers.

Expect trailers to be along the lines the the Butterfly Effect trailer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08hmqyejCYU

butterfly was nice, but ill always miss the over the top trailers weve had lately, if only because they woulda made a good TV show in an age where all the good scifi shows have been canceled and replaced with more reality TV

I really do like the generic ones better. They explain the game more than shove features in your face that are only relevant to existing players.

Ha, I remember an ingame experience that I named after this trailer.

I think Causality was better, but those were at least representative of EvE more than the newer trailers.
Ok the newer ones looked great, but they've become a bit detached from actual EvE gameplay you see when logged in.

Wow, that was really delusional.

Multiple pirates attacking a lone miner...it happens.
One vs Two with the one winning...certainly plausible.
But where it messes up is with the miner.

There is no way a solo hulk would be mining a null sec belt. With BS sized rats, there is no way a hulk could tank that. Also, why would a neutral "lone wolf" in a frigate hull be going to belts in null? To do what the pirates are doing. It's more likely that the lone wolf would help the pirates or take out the pirates first then the exhumer second.

But lets say you do help the miner, here's what is more likely to happen...

You help the miner and in the conversation that follows a fleet shows up. The miner was playing you and just keeping you there. As soon as the fleet shows up, they pop you for the lulz then move on the massive fleet battle that was preplanned between both alliances involved. They give you second thought but to only laugh some more.
