Hello!

I'm loving the FW changes you guys brought with inferno, so much more action going on in the warzone; thank you!!

I was curious if there are any plans to modify the FW sov and tier systems so we don't end up with all the amarr/caldari in caldari space with tier 5 and all the gallente/minmatar in minmatar space with tier 5? While this sounds interesting, it kind of removes the whole purpose of the tier system.

also;

Why does the guy/gal at the feed-switch keep cutting everyone off before they finish speaking?

Dead terrorists fight even cut away before all ships blew up.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

Will you be giving the frill to the Vagabond back?

Once again, for the commenting crew. With the risk of T3 skill loss, why don't any pilots eject to spare themselves the SP loss when they're going down and the match is already a guaranteed loss?

QUESTION:

Could you say that, in today's tournament environment, logistic ships should fit sensor booster (in addition to ECCM)???

Can those contract tie to bounties. U get a bounty of 1 bill to a corp so they kill someone?

How about some mechanic to actually win a War Dec? If you are looking to be able to use a set isk amount of damage on contracts, couldn't this type of mechanic be used to also allow some type of win to end a War Dec faster? (For both the aggressor and defender.)

Everyone has been saying this tournament is a lot more competitive but it looks to me like once one team starts winning it usually rides to the win. Last year there were a lot more back and forth matches and I thought they were much more exciting to watch. Any ideas about why its been so one-sided? Does it have something to do with the ASB?

Question for Devs:

EVE Online is visually stunning and the Alliance Tournament showcases this well for the viewers, but when actually playing EVE it is of more benefit to be zoomed out - no-one has time to be playing with camera angles and zooms whilst fighting. Are there any plans to give players automated camera tools to better enjoy the visual aspect of EVE?

Edit: Also, any news on the Vagabond's frill?

Edit2: Some game experience improving camera suggestions can be found in this Features & Ideas Discussion thread.

I may be wrong and unfortunately wasn't able to watch every match, but I can't really remember to have seen any significant presence of HACs in AT X.

Do the commentators think that's because of the tournament format and their point cost or would they agree that their role was taken over by T3 cruisers and Tier 3 BCs in general?

Also, what kind of moustache wax does MBIII use? I'll share makeup tips in exchange :).

We are not from TEST! Where did that idea come from? We're a roughly 40 man corp that's been around a bit over two years and wanted to do the tourney this year so we made an alliance with pizza time in the middle of our corp name. correct this or no more free lunch!

Kill contracts, why wouldn't you focus on the system being what they asked for?

Paying people to kill posis boring.

Auto payouts for pvp kills based on isk value and how much damage you cause on the kill mail is awesome. Why aren't you focusing on this? same with ship replacements. if your killed by red ships in a rifter, you get a rifter auto ent to you.

we need this :/ more options more tools. so it can't be abused.

When are Kil2 and MB 3 going to either:

  • make out or
  • beat the crap out of each other?


You can see the tension there, and I'm just hoping we get to see the resolution of this before ATX finishes.
