^Request CCP send this to anyone who played Amarr FW in the past week. you will change their world.

That last one was fun.

And I missed it?

Two days ago we went 10/2, so I'm happy I beat my record. Too bad we didn't get to play, saw you online but on your eve toon, we did chat for a bit.

Playing with a core group of randoms as well, getting to learn new ones too, its been pretty fun overall.

Red things are bad. Shoot the red things and try not to get shot by them.

Letters denote control points that you want to control. You can control bad control points (red!) by running up to them and reading the screen prompt.

Tanks are big and scary. You should use rockets to make them go away; bullets don't work on them.

Maps are big and walking makes you tired. Use a car to go places.

You can use tanks too, try calling them in! You get them the same way as jeeps, but you choose HAV instead of LAV.

Also when your God suddenly speaks to you in the middle of battle: don't stop, spiral on the spot and stare up and the heavens when you reply. It's really eerie and makes me feel tingly when I kill you.

Seriously though, I don't see any Minny blueberries spiraling and staring at the sky. ._.

God doesn't talk to that filthy rabble.....they have neither his love nor his blessing. Only true sons and daughter of the Amarr receive that blessing and those swine have not earnt the right to call themselves such.

Peace, Kador, do not waste your breath on this rabble, kill them.

But we can only TK three people safely :(

A tough, no-nonsense race, the Minmatars are a determined and independent people. Their home planet of Matar is a natural paradise, although centuries of abuse have taken much from its beauty.

The Minmatar Republic was formed over a century ago when the Matari threw out their Amarrians overlords in what is known as the Minmatar Rebellion. The Matari had the support of the Gallente Federation and to this day, the two nations remain close allies.

Yet, only a quarter of the Matari people reside within the Republic. The rest are scattered around the galaxy, including a large portion still enslaved within the Amarr Empire.

Minmatar individuals are independent and proud, possessing a strong will and a multitude of tribal traditions. For the Minmatars, the most important thing in life is to be able to take care of yourself on your own, and although kin and family play an important role in their society, they prefer identifying themselves by the clan or tribe to which they belong.

A clan can have any number of people in it, and its size is largely dictated by the main activity of its members. Most specialize in one area of activity. While those who live on a planet can focus on agricultural or industrial activity, others who travel around the universe of EVE concentrate on trading, pirating, and suchlike. In the distant past, the clans constantly warred against each other.

Since then, however, Minmatars have learned that cooperation is more important, and although the clans still try to maintain their regional and ideological identities, they act as a single unit towards other races.

The fortunes of the Minmatars have ebbed and flowed continuously. At one time they had a flourishing empire with a level of mechanical excellence never before or since seen anywhere. Later, however, they had to endure centuries of enslavement, toiling and dying for the benefit of foreign masters. Today, most of them have regained their freedom, but the legacy of their enslavement has been the diaspora of the race.

The Minmatars are the most numerous of all the races in the universe of EVE, but their vast numbers are divided into many factions. While the Minmatar Republic is the official state, only a quarter of all Minmatars are part of it.

The largest proportion, almost a third, are enslaved within the huge Amarr Empire, while a fifth resides within the Gallente Federation, creating a powerful political bloc which keeps relations between the Gallenteans and the Amarrians in a constant state of tension. The remainder, who are not part of any formal organization, live as freemen.

Many are itinerant labourers, roaming from one system to another in search for work. A fair number make their living on the darker side of the law, acting as pirates, smugglers and peddlers in all kinds of illegal goods and many of the larger criminal groups in the world of EVE are run by Minmatars.

Holy **** one of them was smart enough to use and open resource to find out information about his or her chosen faction and share it with the ignorant masses.... we are seeing a new breed of dumb consoler evolve into something slightly less disgusting.....

What could have promoted this sudden jump in intelligence levels? Radioactivity? Prolonged exposure to duct tape? Who knows.... I shall document this and add it to my findings.....

No but in all seriousness this highlights one of CCP problems, in their lore intro there is not one negative aspect of Minmatar culture highlighted, where there are some evident if you look into Minmatar lore....same with the Gallente.....but every negative aspect of the Amarr and Caldari are highlighted in theirs.

As I said, in a much less convoluted way, in the previous post, Kador.

Some one has to be the cynical sarcastic bastard .....

What match were you in? I didn't catch your name.

Were in in that match with Southern Legion (that was our last match and second loss)? Our whole team started 30 seconds late and they arrived at Echo the same time we got Echo (which was our home objective).

My favorite match of the day was against Dem Durty boyz or however they butcher the words, we barely beat them but out, as our squad topped their squad. We had one objective, and we were low but they ticked out while we had 5 left.

Edit:

We fought southern legion, synergy, ancient exiles, dem durty boys, and a whole bunch of other major corps, and we had nothing on our side but our one squad holding it up. There was some Ghost something group we keep running into though they weren't the best, they usually qsynched with another major corp .

I swear there we never had any corps rep us at all, it is literally 100% mono corp support on gallente, and zero for caldari, though getting to get know the good caldari players is making this pretty fun, because we look like a group of randoms.

I even killed you twice. Pistol to the head, and an RE (yeah i am crazy and still use RE in FW)
lol
It was one that you folks won, but close enough that it could have changed in the last 2 minutes.
Mushroom houses and bridge.
The only other person i remember from the match was one of the SVER lads, 40. He dodged my traps and evaded me like a pro.
Keep it up, FW is more fun when there is back and forth.

[quote=Llast 326]
I see, I think that was the match with dem durty boyz then because that one was literally way to close for comfort, (did we have only one objective left at the end?). In the matches I run I go almost entirely support scout, with proto uplinks and complex hacking mods, I literally just carry around a single militia scrambler pistol because I can't fit anything else.

So while my squad defends an area I'm usually going solo into enemy zones and providing back doors for blues on objectives or quick second hacks to get us a few ticks before they turn it back, as a result my kdr is suffering but it seems to work rather well considering the success I've been seeing and with different/random people in my squads.

Edit:

and yes you are crazy for bringing REs to FW lol, but if wins are high enough that can justify it.
