Local Comms Blackout - Discussion Thread - Part Deux!

Hallo

CCP is awfully quiet on the blackout, how about releasing some stats on it? Results will be interesting I think

Has it been announced as to how long the blackout will last?

It’ll last for as long as T4/T5’s don’t have a suspect flag :stuck_out_tongue:

Maybe a couple weeks. Maybe forever. I expect they’re taking metrics before they decide.

Hopefully permanent

I hope it lasts forever. And maybe they’ll employ some of the Citadel mechanics they have in the DB to let residents bring it back. But overall, Intel should be gathered in person, not given automatically by the game.

I haven’t right clicked on one of the drifter invaders to check but I heard that they had started their own Corp now?

Actually they have sov, doctrines, a lucrative RMT stream and they’re putting up a CSM candidate for next year.

Actually if you click on one of the 20 Factions listed in the Character Sheet - Interactions tab - and open it’s info window to look on their standings tab you can see Rogue Drones, Drifters and Triglavian’s are also listed. CCP just hasn’t activated the standings mechanic with them.

Forever if ccp has any sense.

We will get structures to return it if ccp is not incompetent

I hope the blackout goes on indefinitely.

Update: I had a character lose standings with Rogue Drones last night.

They sacrificed their lives for the game. That’s what made her rise up big at times. As a small light I will be able to change little and see no sense in taking their place.

I’ll keep it under observation and act on it.

Well I wish you the best.

But if you think they worked to be where they are, I think you need to think about how it works.

Does your boss do more work than you?

Anyway: as a “small light” you can adapt to changing circumstances far faster. Just remember that.

Ingame? I think. That’s why he certainly became my boss. :wink:

Thanks and i wish you too.

Dotlan still shows how many NPC’s killed and how many jumps every 24 hours. I bet the same people in here creaming over each other about how much 31337 PvP they are going to get would be quite upset that “their” free intel was tampered with.
