I think if I was actually to play this game, I would just mine and enjoy the prettiness of space.

Asteroid fields recently got a graphics update pass and now look incredibly beautiful with all their micro 'roids and godrays. You should come play with us! Goons would shower you with ISK (mod of our hearts.)

Here's a shot of one of our fleets hiding out in an asteroid field between fights from the other night to give you an idea:

Hypothetically what would be the two best regions for CFC to consolidate?
As in not too remote for logistics, yet easy enough to defend?
And with decent rats.

Considering how deklein was packed and the rest of the imperium empty, I think it's feasible to pack 40k nerds in 2 regions.

It's probably good for the game for a shake up like this it will be interesting to see what comes of it all. The game has been fairly stagnate for a few years this is at the very least interesting.

I don't understand why anyone would join to rat.

Incursions are much better money without having to actually own or defend space.

Failing that, blitzing FW missions in bombers.

The latter two activities require effort

Ratting in dek requires you to click 4 buttons every x minutes it takes to complete a sanctum, plus a couple if you're using an mtu to pick up the more profitable loot

It was a cool place for cool people till the Goonies kicked Horde out :smith:




Joking aside, CR was fun for a while but compared to what they couldn't do there with what they can do down in Querious it was inevitable Horde would leave at some point.

Let's not rewrite history now, friend. It wasn't viable for horde to live there because we took all their sov and moons and kicked them out. Regardless of the current situation you didn't 'leave', you 'were evicted'.

If goons don't come to the reddit, then the reddit comes to goons. Not even joking.

I never read the SA thread when there still was kugu. But as Imperium leadership completely avoids reddit and discourages their mid-level guys from posting there, this thread is the only way to get some idea of the Imperium's view of this conflict (TMC is worthless).

not really, the reddit model discourages people not in ~the hive mind~ from going there because basically of the whole voting system


and as long as you're not screaming into the void about how the thread where no posts get pushed out of view is the true echo chamber we dont give a poo poo what you say or do

I think you took jokey posts about poo poo from over 5 months ago a little too seriously.

CR wasn't viable for a lot of reasons for Horde well before the whole "we're going to gently caress them to death" gimmick came around. Same with Catch, and even Querious has its issues but comparatively its a better spot for a group like Horde.

Fighting and having fun is how the rest of the galaxy works. That people fight each other without being full-bore BL-PL level blood enemies without needing to adopt an all-or-nothing blue-or-evict them attitude stands out to you illuminates how small your worldview (eve-view? I don't know what word to use here) is.

They'll tussle with each other after this big war, but it is going to be on the scale of the rest of the galaxy. Roams do not a blood feud make.
