This event is actually really ******* awesome. Pit two parts of the playerbase against each other with rewards and watch the ensuing havoc. This actually sounds like something that would make sense in canon. The irony here is that these rewards will actually increase the amounts of possible targets to kill. Whoever thought of that should do more stuff like this. Yes, it will derail the game slightly, but in a fun way instead of "destroy 50 installations". Will you assemble a highlights reel for capsuleers to buy in EVE?
CCP, for once you are geniuses. |

I fly around in EVE and see it.
Its another use X weapon and get X better weapons.... how is that a good event? It modifies gameplay, keeping it fresh. See it as a temporary game mode change. The scout bonus gives scouts incentive to actually use their scout suits. The kill bonus against scouts is the real event. Without the scout bonus there wouldn't be any scouts to kill, though, because they would be playing different suits.
It also causes all the snipers and tankers to take up frontline roles. |

As long as this is on the first page:
µ¡+pü«pü¦ (shi nobi) is japanese for "beauty of death" Nice play of words, but actually you're confusing it with s+ìpü¦ (Shinobi) meaning "Stealth" µùѵ£¼F¬Ppüîpüºpüìpéï? µùѵ£¼F¬Ppü»pü¡püîpüªpüºpüÖpÇé
It's generally a bad idea to kick off such discussions. Might lead to derails due to people like me who take the opportunity to show off. For the record, I suck at Japanese.
Anyway,

This could be interesting, although I feel like I've been target painted that week lol. This is why you get proto suits for kills. The event is not for scouts. It's for rifle users. Scouts only get rewarded because otherwise they'd go into hiding. But rewarding them for melee kills means that they'll be plentiful targets.
And I mostly run scout suits. I guess I'll have to play frontline or try to get a medium frame scout done. |
