Hello,

The signup referred to getting free ships - I barely made it in - ALSO there was a MEMO listed on the LOGIN screen - cant miss that really.

I never paid much attention to mmany things when I started cause I got 30 days to figure out if this game is worth paying a sub for and/or grinding 600mil ISK a month.

I would have to get in with the right corps etc, learn the game, check out lagg issues in major battles...there is a fun aspect here, but an all-out PVP in areas where I need to be to make it profitable for me to stay in the game may be a 'fun' issue I dont want to deal with; ARMA 3 is calling me !

I am not even a PVP'er and I signed up cause it is an opportunity; and to learn; for me I may be just trying to keep my attrition rate high and not die alot and play catch me if you can !

Thanks for the chat link.

OP only says T1. I understood that to mean non-t2. Thanks for the clarification.

...one more question: does the "no ECM" rule include sensor dampeners?

Thanks!

No.

Damps, tracks, TPs etc are fine.

Its literally anything that jams you - so mid slot ECM & drones iirc.

DISCLAIMER: This is a whine post. And sorry for possible bad English.

Hi. I contracted a container with more than 130000m3 of stuff to Amoux Ganthier. When I logged in for the event he gave me two containers, one was empty and the other one had only 6 Tormentors and 2 Tristans. I asked him about it and he said that one of the haulers mistakenly repackaged some containers, so my ships/modules were mixed with those of 2-3 other players. He looked at the contract and after some time he managed to give back to me more than half of my stuff, I asked if I could have back the missing things before the end of the event because I couldn't use a lot of my fittings without those specific modules, but he said he had no time. Actually, I could have used the free ships I signed up for (although I didn't like how they were fitted), I could have modified my fittings to use the ships with the modules I had or I could have used the few fittings for which I had all the exact equip, but I was very frustrated because I spent a lot of time thinking of the fits I would use for the event and getting the exact number of ships and modules I needed, everything should have been ready so that for once i could have had continuous fun in this game without bothering about preparations/roaming/etc, instead I was spending most of my time in game counting my modules and listing to Amoux Ganthier the stuff I was missing, so I decided to log off after just two fights in badly fitted ships and disregard the event. I had lots of fun in the first FFA and was really looking forward to this edition. Hope i can actually have fun the next time. Ugh

I was there, I had fun, I think I would do it again. I will rate it 9/10.

I learned a lot about the performance of the post-tiericide frigates, and a little about ganking and loss. Sometimes I killed 3 people in a row, and sometimes I sank like a bag of assholes. Was displeased with how my destroyer was waxed when the carrier showed up; but other than that, If you weren't there, you should have been.

I think the Condor setup available could be improved. I'll recommend this. It is short range versus long range though. The magic is that the propulsion jamming mods cost very little cap, and the weapons cost none, so you can use the cap elsewhere.
