Hi everyone. After our very successful Devs vs Players frigate battle on Duality earlier this release we have decided to run another similar event focused on Cruisers.



A number of Devs including myself will be playing on Buckingham this Thursday the 15th of November starting at 16:00 Eve time. We'll start off the event with some organized fleets against whatever you can throw at us, then afterwords it should be pretty easy for all of you to find devs for casual 1v1s or skirmishes.



Last time the Devs were the undisputed champions so I think the players need to bring their A game this week to regain some pride.



It was a ton of fun last time so I hope you'll all come back this Thursday and take us on! Game Designer | Team Game of Drones

Mhmmm..We'll see !



I look forward to this.



If anything, could you please try Omens and Mallers ? I think that they're not really performing as they should be.



But maybe that's just me.

If they state that they want to test cruisers by fire (and the wrath of their subscribers).



I can see them taking out some quite drastic measures against people who try to intervene ...

So survive the first wave (with enough cruisers stashed).



And then decide which dev you want to kill the most.

I am sure they will be killing and maybe banning from the test server any one that does that during this event.

Good news everyone! We're going to be able to live stream the event on the CCP Own3d.tv channel so people who aren't able to make it onto Bucky at this time can still watch.

Keep an eye on http://www.own3d.tv/CCPGames/live/307014 starting around 16:00 for all the action! We'll also be answering your questions about Retribution live on air.



For shiptypes, we're not going to be heal 0ing anyone for bringing the "wrong" ships, but the plan is to spawn a FW complex in system that will restrict shiptypes (the new Retribution style medium complexes for those keeping score). Game Designer | Team Game of Drones

Edit...

That means I didn't lose a ship.

Also, got two kills, both of them being battle cruisers, with top damage and final blow. That's probably not too bad for a miner. ;-)
