Yeah, it also makes seeing the UI problematic at best.

Whats with the word “trigger” that keeps popping up in local?

Seems to occur with a new respawn of npc’s in the mining location.

Eve used to be about the players creating the content. The more ccp tries to micromanage the way the sites are run, the less fun they become.

Personally, I havent run any of these events in a long time. They are just awful grindy wastes of time.

Ive been lurking in the event chat.

What I’ve seen most as FAQs and complaints:

Where is the event at?
Oh Jesus Christ my eyes burn
How many times do the NPCs generate?
The event is too concentrated, there’s agglomeration of players everywhere, some people are complaining that all the loot be gone.
There were cries for a bit more pulverization of sites, so you don’t lock players into massive concentrations
Wheres the loot?
Etc.

This permafrost site is INCREDIBLY bright. I mean it hurts my eyes and I can barely see anything else on the screen. I stayed in it for like 20 minutes at which point I had to warp off cause I couldn’t stand the brightness any more. Increasing the graphics settings to max does seem to reduce brightness somewhat but still, it’s too much

strange, I did not notice any issue with brightness.

I tink brightness depends on your computer. If you have bad settings with patatos mode, it could be hard to see in the site.

I have potato, no issue.

I’ve run out of missions I can do. The cans aren’t respawning to hack and the BS spawns are so limited. I have no mining skills so I’ve gotten to 74 points and can’t go any further. RIP.

And all that for an underwhelming alternation of the Glacial Drift skin for the Megathron?

ok I get what the white thing is. sometimes there is a white filter all over the screen. It wears off in 10s,I guess sometimes it remains.

turning shader to low helped a lot with the brightness, except for warp in and warp out…but seriously not a great idea, think about people with migraine tendencies a bit. Wish I’d find my sunglasses…

Still as an alpha can’t really hack the hackable cans unless I take a ship designed to hack, which is basically not going to survive the few mordus on the hacking site.

I do not mine, and could not mine and tank with my skills, guess someone with real skills could just sit there and tank the rats.

Killing rats so far, I haven’t got any loot worth mentioning. I’m not sure I want to take my BS through the north gate if the spawns are as bad as they look. I was hoping to having accelerators so as to skip a few weeks of slaving up to my daily dose of alpha every other day, but i guess not. Also 1 site per constellation means, the site is occupied at most times a day, so you only have a load of wrecks and have to wait for new spawns.

guess the only way to profit from this as an alpha will be to make a tanking salvaging ship and go salvage other peoples wrecks… they don’t seem to clean up their mess anyway…but I’m not sure I want that migraine attack

CCPls this event is GARBAGE! You hit a home run with abyssal deadspeace and blood raiders event pve. You dropped the ball on this one.

  1. I have to go 20+ jumps just to find a event site and its not on the map.
  2. I kill 15 ships in my raven and now I have to reship to medium weapons to get any more points.
  3. The loot is garbage, the sites are so crowded you cannot even find an open can, and respawn times on cans are ridiculous,

this event is a huge downgrade to previous events
might aswell do normal PvE for predictable guaranteed income instead of RNG + the hassle of sniping the BS and fighting over cans/gas

looted in one site on two BS

Nova Torpedo	100	Torpedo			5 m3	30 288,00 ISK
Standard 'Brainfreeze' Cerebral Accelerator Blueprint		Booster Blueprints			0,01 m3	
ML-EKP 'Polybolos' Ballistic Control System	1	Ballistic Control system		Low	5 m3	
Frostline 'Omnivore' Harvester Upgrade	1	Mining Upgrade		Low	5 m3	
Frostline 'Clavicula' Integrated Analyzer	1	Data Miners		Medium	5 m3	
Basic 'Brainfreeze' Cerebral Accelerator Blueprint		Booster Blueprints			0,01 m3

A thrid one gave me almost nothing.

good thing is you can warp back to the site hub from anywhere.

Also the BS is almost as fast as the cruiser, so kar 1000m on it once you are between both will ensure that he goes on the opposite way of the cruisers. So if the cr are 50km off the bs, you don’t need to deal with them at all.

This is not a battleship event, I wouldn’t suggest using one.
