Meanwhile in EVE online... Mass rioting and complete economic shutdown. - Games

[QUOTE=mooman1080;30697713]The one that will give stations 3d space for players to walk around in if i'm not mistaken.[/QUOTE] Doesn't sound bad to be honest, but I'm sure they will find a way to net ISK from this again in some way.

[QUOTE=mooman1080;30697713]The one that will give stations 3d space for players to walk around in if i'm not mistaken.[/QUOTE] Isn't it console only?

[QUOTE=Nohj;30697765]Isn't it console only?[/QUOTE] Oh right, dust is the console game, not the update adding the 3d space.

Can that memorial in game even be destroyed because it looked like they were just shooting and nothing was happening

[QUOTE=sweeneypaul;30697811]Can that memorial in game even be destroyed because it looked like they were just shooting and nothing was happening[/QUOTE] I think it can really only be damaged, still the ruckuss it has created might have pretty much negated the space police meaning piracy could be all the more easier.

can you actually destroy structures like space stations (not owned by players)

I joined the riot, i have no fucking idea whats going on but it looks fantastic

Well you can't now because they took the servers down for daily maintenance. I'll try and join and fit my Drake out when it goes back up.

If I give you $70 for a virtual monocle, I goddamn better get either a real one shipped to me or loads of other free content to partake in. Because that costs more than a brand new console game preordered with overnight shipping.

They're rioting over optional stuff? :raise:

[QUOTE=Vaught;30698041]They're rioting over optional stuff? :raise:[/QUOTE] the hockey game in Canada was optional.

Feel sorry for those that make money off of EVE and are getting fucked over by this.

[QUOTE=Nohj;30698049]the hockey game in Canada was optional.[/QUOTE] I suppose you get enough silly people together and mob mentality just rocks the place. Oh brain, why you so difficult. :frown:

I find this sort of thing really interesting. Will be interesting to see how it plays out and how the economy is affected.

I'm in wormhole space, don't give shits.

[QUOTE=Scotchair;30697232]Eve is incredible to study, the social interactions and economics are unlike anything else. I've never played it myself, but it's probably the most successful MMO in terms of actually being it's own independant, fully functioning, self sufficient universe. The awesome shit that goes down is great, it's like something out of a movie. Like that time a guild (or the eve equivalent) sent a spy into their biggest rival's ranks, and it took him like 5 years to work his way to the top then he completely fucked them over from the inside out. Badass.[/QUOTE] Problem is, time doesn't stop when you are playing. Spending 5 years to infiltrate a guild in a videogame is cool at first, but when you think about it...

[QUOTE=acds;30698126]Problem is, time doesn't stop when you are playing. Spending 5 years to infiltrate a guild in a videogame is cool at first, but when you think about it...[/QUOTE] well, think about it like this: he would of been playing the same amount of time if it was a guild he just wanted to be a part of. he just decided : hey, i'll just keep in mind that i'll fuck these guys over in the end.

[QUOTE=acds;30698126]Problem is, time doesn't stop when you are playing. Spending 5 years to infiltrate a guild in a videogame is cool at first, but when you think about it...[/QUOTE] Wonder what he did after that. Play the game as per usual?

[QUOTE=Vaught;30698178]Wonder what he did after that. Play the game as per usual?[/QUOTE] He bought one damn expensive pair of sunglasses.

Haha, this is fucking awesome This brought a smile to my face

Hahaha haven't played in a while but if this continues there won't be any stations left to dock on? That's one great way to Riot. Destruct a lot but actually don't

[QUOTE=mooman1080;30697117t] Alot of people are making money off selling in game currency (Wich is alowed and condoned by CCP through in game trading of timecards.) This riot is likely putting alot of people out of the job, in a sense real money is being lost by everyone. [/QUOTE] Excuse me? What the fuck are you on about? This is absolutely [i]disallowed.[/i]

Buying and selling of ISK through real currency is diallowed last time I checked too.

[editline]25th June 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Faren;30698053]Feel sorry for those that make money off of EVE and are getting fucked over by this.[/QUOTE] You shouldn't. They're the equivalent of gold sellers in WoW. Mostly Russians, Chinese, and Serbians, to be honest.

So the memorials people have been shooting for the last 12 hours may very well be replaced with wreckage in the near future.

In all seriousness does this really matter eve is probably the worst game ever made [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Why reply?" - Hexxeh))[/highlight]

I'd like to see a video of a huge fight between the riotting people and CONCORD. I wonder how it'll end.

[QUOTE=Centic;30698692]In all seriousness does this really matter eve is probably the worst game ever made[/QUOTE] Well then feel free to go back playing the glory and splendor that is the cawadooty series.

Check his posts, he's an obvious troll. Report and move on.
