JITA Terrorist Threat!

I have no proof that current game mechanics do not allow for ammunition to be simply detonated to cause damage? That is what the image included was asking for. The person said they were building the charges and wanted to detonate them in 10 days when done.

As for proof, try it! Right click on ammo and there is no detonate option. There is no item that can be loaded with ammo to blow up the ammo inside a structure. It is simply not in the database. Go check every sellable or contactable item. I’ll wait. You won’t find one.

Look, yes you could flood Jita with fleets and shoot anyone else who undock. It happened before. However, it isn’t detonating the ammo and blowing up the station. It is loading the ammo in a gun and firing it at a target. Big difference.

So I will stand by my statement that you can’t build ammo in a station then detonate it.

Try going inside a polaris. You can’t . I can’t. I saw someone flying one. A guy from the Center for Child Protection I think. Your argument is invalid.

That may be true, but wouldn’t be more interesting, if it was like that scene in batman where Bane boosts that nuke, then the stadium scene, but that may be impossible in the game mechanics so I don’t know what will happen in now 8 days in EVE @ JITA 4-4.

Actually, if you had the skills and found a Polaris floating in space, you could fly it. Devs have those skills and ships. They are in the database and it is possible to fly one.

There is nothing to detonate ammo in the database.

As for what will happen in 8 days in jita… A firesale on ammo as the person realizes the limitations of the sandbox and that all their work is for naught.

And here’s the thing… If this were possible, there would never have been a giant keepstar fight. One loan alt spy would up in a corp with access to the keepstar, bring in the ammo over time, and boom. Well… Except the game just doesn’t work that way.

Maybe ask yourselves

“Have any NPC stations ever been destroyed in eve?”

Should answer all speculations on what the hoax level of these broadcasts are.

How do you know this? Did you hack the Eve database? Seems like a serious breach of the EULA.

Why are you so keen to convince people this isn’t possible anyway? Seems like you have a vested interest in keeping anybody from doing this for real. What are you hiding???

Wasn’t there a Concord station that got destroyed waaaay back in the day (either during beta or shortly after) I think it was the old trade hub before jita. And after that ccp changed it so npc stations where invincible.

Or it could be an old wives tale.

The age of emperym (sp?) book had a concord station destroyed by the minmatar Elder fleet. Was that event reflected in game somewhere?

Should I initiate immediate assets safety from Jita?

Nah. The guy said nine days, but Jita is still functioning and the delay is passed, so everything is okay. Plus I think everyone will know if we can make ammunition explode like old warships IRL (depot explosion).

Ehhhm… too good to be true
:thinking::hushed:

Yup, it could be glorious, just imagine…
