I'm making my foray into eve finally, is it worth applying to GoonWaffe? Edit: I guess I've been playing for a while, not really "finally" Mayor Glowku fucked around with this message at 05:10 on Oct 7, 2015 |

So PL being declared winner of the AT is like if the NFL declared Green Bay the super bowl winner because of deflate gate? If so please make CCP the next commissioner of the NFL tia.

This is how e-honor made a bad joke for Camel and Warlords. I believe if it was not initially revealed by one of the members who felt too bad about this situation, CCP would not made investigation. But community wanted to burn someone very badly. Kirs fucked around with this message at 08:01 on Oct 7, 2015 |

It was mostly because Hydra did the same thing last year, smugged really hard about it, did it again and got sloppy enough to piss off someone who had the info on the collusion. Also watching CCP Fozzie come out on FHC to dunk Bob Shaftoes tonight was funny. Recreation - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LE0LuHzOT9M

And yeah, without an insider info dump it wouldn't have happened. The rigging was deniable enough without that. I think the guys in charge of the two teams were super dumb to let their pilots know they were going to 100% throw the match. Select some one-sided comps, tell your guys afterward you didn't try your hardest because the other team needed the win more, anything to make them feel better. Just from a blackmail perspective, the idea that you'd give your pilots that kind of leverage is a terrible idea. And when one of them has an actual conscience over it you're just screwed. The real story is that CCP thinks streaming and the AT can push interest in Eve for people outside the game. So they're gonna try to make the AT into something that's not really Eve anymore, a part of the game that's fair competition and free of metagaming. Which I think is pretty dumb because the AT is un-ficking-watchable to someone who isn't already into the game. It's really inside baseball.

I play Eve and even I consider the AT hard to watch. I have no idea what's going on most of the time. I have to rely on the commentators. I tend to just read the results. mudstone posted:i'm back in widot. I had a friend who once joined widot but she went to the doctor and got an ointment and it cleared right up.

I think he's learned his lesson tho. Was fun trying to run sites with PL fleets shuffling around let me tell you.

It has zero hallmarks of a good eSport, principally that it is impossible to tell what is going on by watching the action on screen. e: The other criminal problem with that as a marketing concept is that the experience on-screen can in no-way be replicated ingame, whereas with every Moba / SC clone you can actually do what you see on screen on an amateur level.

Despite this there's not a sub-spike around the ATs so I don't know what metrics they go on; maybe it inspires unsubscribed players to come back? Icelandic vidya game producer Crowd Control Productions is incompetent at everything they do? What a shock Delta Echo posted:Am I a meme now You are saying this like it would be a good thing.

I saw only the thumbnail of that when I scrolled past it on reddit or somewhere else earlier. It looked to me then as if it was on a tablet, which I thought was a pretty neat idea if it was possible to connect a tablet to a computer and use it as a secondary game controller for something like eve.

You could maybe do that with Roccat Power-Grid?

Yeah I convoed penifSMASH to remind him that he is in fact still my bitch and he told me the guy paid a ransom. Once I realized it was Paco Vato I was not surprised. I'll dig the logs of him defending his decision to pay the ransom in fleet after this. The video of that Aeon dying from his POV will make you loving furious. E also he blocked me for calling Delta Echo a dickhole, so it sounds to me like he's a Elsa pussy sympathizer
