The loss in USD is 0. Just because you can buy plex for RL money and then sell the plex for isk doesn't mean that isk has a RL money value. Especially as you can't turn it back into RL money

The loss was billions of isk and hundreds or possibly thousands of hours production (which can continue whilst the players are offline so only the time setting up the production can be said to have a RL value).

MAG was fine, give me MAG in DUST and were are there

Only 10 mins? I'm sure some of the capsuleers would have loved for the wait to have only been 10 mins.

At HED a week or two ago, people were queueing up to get into the system for hours.

RMT remember? there are people willing to pay ridiculous amounts of RL money to get virtual currency, the fact that such transactions are illegal doesn't mean that they don't happen. and as i said in another thread, converting isk losses into RL money is simply an analogy, a way of explaining the scale of the loss to those who aren't familiar with the value of isk.

When I play as a sniper, I'm more likely to be nearer to the opponents redline than my own.

LT Dans Legs Bullet Cluster Legacy Rising 262	Posted - 2014.01.28 14:06:00 - [1] - Quote Last nights Eve battle was of epic proportions. Before I went to bed there were about 85 titans destroyed. I had heard CCP was gonna hold off on downtime. Anybody know the outcome of that battle or if its still going on? I wish Dust could be involved in battles like that.

No word on what exactly such would entail, and as usual it comes with the caveate of "may never happen", but the general assumption is that it would entail objective pvp based around disabling a specific ship function. >.< not completely on topic, but certainly not off topic either?

ANON Cerberus Tiny Toons 184	Posted - 2014.01.28 16:51:00 - [14] - Quote I would love longer more epic battles in dust. Changing objectives as the battle progresses, bigger timers, huge clone counts and the players to fill the battles. Hell whats the word on at lest getting 24 v 24 battles? Its not a huge increase from the 16 v 16 we have now but it would be noticeable. The game on the PSN store does say 2-48 players. Would having 24 v 24 be that hard to implement? Maybe leave things as is and have a new game mode with a fancy name where it has upped clone counts with the 24 v 24. Some epic sort of battles.

I was hoping I could come home from work, log on and play till its time to go to bed. That would be awesome. But I guess I just have a wild imagination.

I wish Dust could be involved in battles like that. For a bit of perspective, if I bought a Titan using PLEX it would cost twice as much as my first car. They were worth roughly $3,000 Canadian in 2012. I have not checked prices more recently. Edit: So 85 Titans is about a quarter of a million dollars, or there abouts.

Fox Gaden Immortal Guides 2298	Posted - 2014.01.28 19:09:00 - [27] - Quote In EVE the AI aims the guns. The pilots just tell the guns what to shoot at. So EVE is able to handle lag in battles much better. Can you imagine trying to deal with Time Dilation in DUST? Of course I suppose that it might be easier to aim accurately if everything was moving in slow motion. Fox Gaden: DUST Wall of Fame, 2014
