currently broadcasting this gate after this rather haphazard mail.
Ingame map does not reflect the loss on the gate connection. Autopilot does not take the shut down connections into account either. Obviously, because #CCPQualityCoding
So far it looks like systems in areas with active Metaliminal Storms are affected.
Latest development: The gate turned back on at 12:24.
Wait, Just one gate shut down for a little bit? Wasnât this supposed to be an apocalyptic event? I just stockpiled MREs, liquor, and porn in a bunker for no reason.
Surely CCP is hyping this upcoming event in itâs typical way: a few enigmatic mentions, raising anxiety about what is going to happen, and incomprehensible e-mail and pop-up notifications directing to the CCP stream, where nothing can be learned anyway. But you can spam on chat.
Hats off to the employees responsible for communication with players.
The email they sent me was blank. It had an option to âview in web browserâ - the web page didnât say anything either. These guys arenât really cool enough to do a marketing campaign like this.
The Email I got from CCP had that message, all it did was open another tab and show the same thing, option to either âDownloadâ or âRecover Accountâ.
Arataka seems to have fun digging through the data:
âThis Triglavian structure is designed to function as a permanent transfer conduit between star systems in the constructed Triglavian region of Pochven. Triglavian Space is made up of systems âwovenâ together by the Triglavians into an artificial arrangement defined by the Pochven Conduit Loop. Access to Pochven Conduit Gates is determined by the level of standing a capsuleer has with the Triglavian Collective and requirements may vary depending on the type of system into which the Conduit Gate leads. As with most Triglavian technology, the power for this device is drawn from harnessed space-time singularities. As the conduit clearly uses an array of three such singularities, the energy requirements must be considerable.â
The Home-15 âPochvenâ Filament permits up to 15 ships to travel from Known Space to a system in Triglavian space that is considered the home system of the artificial constellation, or âKraiâ, controlled by a given Triglavian clade. Triglavian mastery of space-time conduit technology allows them relatively fine control over the generation and targeting of FTL conduits. Certain of the filament devices used by Triglavian forces are connected to systems that are considered the âhomeâ systems of the Triglavian Krais, or artifical constellations controlled by each clade. Even those unfamiliar with how to precisely target them will find the conduits they generate will transport them to a âhome systemâ in the Triglavian-constructed region of Pochven.
So basically weâll have a trig NPC region called Pochven, with 3 constellations called Krais (9 systems each) - the region will be accessible from normal space through filaments and once there weâll be able to jump between systems through stargate-like trig structures?
All this is doing is keeping player accounts flickering from logging in. This is stupid. Just do it and move on already. This is like an 8-year-old telling a story and making it up as they go and it just gets more ridiculous and annoying. Just end this triglavian story already. Itâs time CCP. Itâs time.
All this is doing is making the game interesting again.
Give them their day or two to reveal the new geography and quit complaining about how change is hard, or you miss your safe space. The new situation is different and new, and worth a little disruption of your compulsive farming.
