...now what?
Amarr owns everything and Scotty is making it known by giving constant errors since we have no districts to attack. I personally only play Amarr FW so I guess it's time for me to put down the sticks until the Minnies take some districts back eh?
Another problem - since the Amarr swept in so quickly and took everything, I'm sure many players didn't get the chance to fulfill the Amarr FW award parameters. Do those possible awards simply become vaporware for those players since they didn't get the chance to play that many matches before we assumed complete control? Are we all expected to simply swap over to our allies faction and go for their rewards instead since some of us may be unable to attain the Amarr awards?

Fuuuuuu- I've probably completed about 20 Amarr FW battles since the start of the event. I'm happy we took back our territory and that the Minmatar will be set back on the straight path but I would have liked those rewards nonetheless.
I haven't had the chance to play yet today but I hope I'm curious why now no battles are available for the Amarr? When the Minmatar controlled all the territory it seemed like we could instantly get into battle on the Amarr side. What changed? |

Sad but true, lots of corps that only dabble in FW for a change of scenery have aided the Amarrian conquest for the rewards. Since most will soon "achieve" the reward tiers they will leave FW.
My worry now is that since we are on the reverse side of the win/loss & attack/defence before the event we may have an issue with the mechanics to take it back, only time will tell.

Actually it's rather simple - by and large, people prefer to fight against the imperialistic slave traders; not for them.
See no bug, no nefarious switch flipping, simply people switching sides to get shiny rewards. |

It wasn't a glitch or a bug, it was a design flaw. And it wasn't specifically making the Minmatar and Gallente win FW, it was making it so whichever team held a slight majority of districts would create a snowball effect until they own all districts and then hold them in a virtual lock down. From what it appears, this design flaw has yet to be fixed. Nonetheless, that doesn't mean Amarr or Caldari don't deserve credits. Both factions have rallied enough forces to somehow climb out of that hole they've been in for a month.
The problem is that now for the Minmatar or Gallente to come back, they're going to need a similarly monstrous effort. Pretty much it turns into an "all or nothing" thing which really isn't how FW should be. There should be long periods of time where everything is mostly contested, with only brief moments where one team is able to make a push and secure all districts. |

Well it's a little of both. Again, Amarr and Caldari both deserve massive credit for their accomplishments on getting out of their hole they've dug themselves. Still, an obvious sign that the FW system is still not working correctly is the fact that you get "scotty" errors when your faction has no districts to attack. You should at least be put into a defensive contract. |

There is no such mechanic here, as there is neither an LP store nor an economy.

But I see what you mean, with the Minmatar dominating in this example does this mean Amarr Navy Ships will increase in value? |

Yes. Have you not seen this? When the Minmatar militia is winning, the value of firetails drops significantly and the value of slicers increases significantly. The only variable here is the LP value. There is no mechanic even remotely like the rewards system we are seeing here. The value of Amarr equipment did not increase when they were getting stomped, and the value of Minmatar equipment will not increase here now.
Thus, this is not how EVE side FW works. |

But King don't even bother with these guys, were not here to brag, were here to make sure the Empire is safe from their threats.
I feel like I have bothered to respond to ignorance, weak minded comments, and more over the threats against the Empire.
In the end "Service is its own Reward" as one of the PIE officers would say, Serve is what we do. Victory is what we must achieve, and vigilant we must be in the face of the enemy.
I am very happy to hear of your initiative in AIC. Keep true to the tenets of the Amarr, we are dignified, diligent, faithful, and above all God's chosen people.

So many questions regarding FW....so little answers. you crushed what? the empty teams in the opposition? almost everyone went for amarr FW due to the event rewards, everytime I join a match for Minmatar faction my team is half empty. Did this matter last week when you people were telling us you were crushing us both EVE and Dust Side. in short: just because some kids smacktalked last week you decided to drop down to their level and do it too?

This event is a false economy. Totalling up the number of suit/fittings losses to the value of the rewards I'm on the brink of devaluing the rewards.
So what's the point. Anyone else lost more than the value of the rewards?
After the event is over we shall see how long it takes to return control of those systems to matari hands. |

No my point from that comment is that many people have said its only the rewards keeping the Am/Cal FW efforts in charge, however you forget that a **** ton of effort went into coordinating that entire effort between ground and fleet.
Hands down the Amarr and GAllente are the better organised militias.
All the Minnies have going for them in popular opinion. |

I really do doubt that.
Pubstompers look at the rewards, see that the Caldari/Amarr rewards are more favourable. Create squads and PIE take the credit?
Sure....

Yeah because gaining 30+ people in one channel, Q-Syncing them, Co-ordinating ground and space ops, running Plexing fleets, running roaming fleets, running Hub Bash Fleets, gaining 80% of the warzone and 8 systems in one single day was not a lot of work.

Yes. Have you not seen this? When the Minmatar militia is winning, the value of firetails drops significantly and the value of slicers increases significantly. The only variable here is the LP value. There is no mechanic even remotely like the rewards system we are seeing here. The value of Amarr equipment did not increase when they were getting stomped, and the value of Minmatar equipment will not increase here now.
Thus, this is not how EVE side FW works.
Not necessarily for the Amarr yet, but I do know its happening for the Minnies, oir has been.
It has happened to the Amarr. Slicers have been twice the price of Firetails in some trade hubs.

You've obviously never seen the Syndicates LP store :D He also hasn't seen the epic ONI fit or Navy Apocs I have.
I meant the FW stores. Neither of those mentioned are fail ships - ONIs and Napocs are potentially excellent ships. |

You should. It took preparation and the PIE channel was just the condiut. I for one like organization and these guys offered it. You guys were just unprepared. Period.
You all are losing horribly. Instead of spewing this nonsense, be proactive and gather troops to retaliate. Man up.
If not, just shut your mouth, tuck your tail between your legs, take your losses like a man and deal with it.

I love how all the Minmatar and Gallente are making excuses now, but a month ago when the same thing happened in their favor they claim it was because they were better, ha.
For the record, I acknowledge that there was a design flaw a month ago and that the same thing is happening now just the other way around. |

And tbh, I commend you PIE guys for acknowleding that it was broken and rather than moan about it, you offered your prespective on the problems and possible fixes. EVEN now when we are on top, you still acknowledge that FW is a broken mechanic and STILL push towards fixing it and offering solutions. When Minmatar were winning outright, did anyone from that side do the same?
Simple answer.
No.
They just continued staying quiet while they enjoyed their dominance. Smh. |

I'd bet more people use MDs than scramblers. |
