I love how different the pvp can be in eve-

Solo frigate pvp: I must pay attention every instant, if I'm a second too late overheating my rep I'll die!

Null TIDI pvp: Well I hit "activate" on my guns, guess I'll go pop a load of laundry in the washer...

ONLY HALF OF THE TITANS WILL BE ISSUED GUNS

IF YOUR TITANMATE DIES, LOOT HIS GUNS

People often petition for reimbursement when the node looks like it is sitting itself because people pretend it's CCP's fault they lost their shiny. It's stupid but apparently it works once in a while because some GM are stupid.

22 enemy Titans down.

It is rumored that enemy Titans are not loading mods before getting killed. THIS IS A MASSACRE.

So when Titans jump in under tidi they don't have their tank active while loading. This is a known thing.

Hello. Yep, I still think Atlantis is Bolivia, yep, I'm still a giant idiot, yep, I'm still a huge racist. Some things never change!
In retrospect, it might have been smarter for them to try and load hours, or even a day before in a surprised attempt to get as many titans out as possible. But trying to load grid while we already had 4k people in system was the dumbest fuckin' decision they could have made.


I am enjoying their lack of forethought very much.

Literally what the gently caress are they even doing? Did they just log in half their titan fleet, piecemeal, and then immediately log them off? None of this makes any sense whatsoever

its a glitch i just thought it was funny

it's happening a lot and i suspect it also means they're not even loading passive hardeners/extenders before they die, but id have to add up the damage they're taking

Not piecemeal. They tried to jump in all at once, but the server quietly squeaked out a strained, blood-curdled "no" before collapsing in an electric diabetic coma.

So they try to jump into a system with 4500 dudes present right into the middle of one giant ball of death. And they are loading one by one, getting picked off before they can do anything.



Who could possibly have predicted this?
