hey, you guys said the Operation Mauler reward script would be run earlier this week. Well, Wednesday isn't 'early this week'. It is exactly 'half way through the week. Did you mean early NEXT week? Cause I know I am still waiting for my reward.

Will the reward payout for this event be paid out a month after it is over? You guys really need to work on rewarding people in a timely manner. If it isn't chinese new years, then it's something else you guys are probably getting drunk over and forgetting.

Also, this basically confirms you are not giving us a respec in 1.8. 1 million, with a possible of 2 million, SP, on top of the possible 750k SP from Mauler - so 1.75m to 2.75m SP is just barely enough to get one of the new proto suits and then you're left grinding for a new weapon.

It's just now been a week since the event ended. Cool your jets.

CCP goes to work, works hard, and have families and lives outside of their office. If they have a holiday, they can damn well do as they please during their holiday.

CCP Cmdr Wang post about Mauler rewards on March 9th, a Sunday. The Sunday of this week. Mean next week would be.... Next week.

If you could have potentially had 2.75m SP to put where ever you want when 1.8 drops after making no effort to save any SP at all, then the fault lies with you. As far as respecs and these events go, CCP Logibro says you're wrong in this very thread. Apparently, monthly events with SP payouts that we planned to be run independently of patches have no bearing on whether or not a respec will be given.

I already have a booster applied, do I have to apply another one to qualify? If so, glad I kept these omega actives. Also, if we apply it, and we reach the 1million, will those that have omega, or regular, get 2million or 1.5 million, respectively?

Apparently, monthly events with SP payouts that we planned to be run independently of patches have no bearing on whether or not a respec will be given. Actually, I call bullshit on that. All the have to do is run one little script. The push of a button that should have been pressed the day after the event. Had they made the code nice and clean in the first place to actually track everything, it should have already been given out. As for me saving SP, I have been skilling into things that will not change IE dropsuit upgrades. Things that I will have to have at 5 anyways. The fact I'm not saving SP is irrelevant to this topic. The fact that they are giving us an even that will give us a potential 2million SP right after an event that can give us up to 750k SP confirms they will not give us a respec in 1.8. A patch, that I'm not sure you're aware of, is going to drastically change everything about ground warfare. All I'm saying is, these events confirmed there will be no respec, which will lose them players AND they constantly delay and delay event rewards. The Battle for Caldari Prime rewards were, surprisingly, given out really fast. Every event after that, we've had to wait more than a week to get our rewards. And even then, they never actually told us that we got any rewards (in the case of Operation Shinobi) on the login screen. So, I am going to call bullshit on your first statement.

So, since I have work in that window, I should probably activate my omega booster tonight and I should be good, yeah? Or do I have to activate a new one within that window? If it's the latter, that is stupid....

If it's the latter, that is stupid.... You'll be good. Basically it's whichever booster is active on the final check that will be done 6 hours after downtime. If you activate yours tonight you're good. If somebody activated a 30 day booster 28 days ago they're good, etc. CCP have said they might look at doing a later check than the 6 hour post downtime one, but don't plan for it. Awesome, omega active

I don't think it was unnecssary.

A job well done mercs! Thanks go out to all of you who participated this weekend and helped to make this event a great success. Should give us a full Infantry Respec now. That'd be a great reward for almost doubling the stretch goal. You should do it since you're ruining most of the current meta of the game in a very drastic manner.

Cause Uplinks will now be 15-10 second spawn time! You'd be better off spwaning on a CRU, since they can go down to 3-10 second spawns. This is exactly why they increased the spawn time for uplinks... To give CRUs a significantly quicker spawn time than drop uplinks, their in-game value will increase hopefully making them assets that we'll fight to hold. Right now, we fight to keep them red. We spawn camp them. We sometimes even team kill people to stop them from hacking. It doesn't matter that they are trying to make the CRU something worth fighting for. We already fight for them to camp them. Making uplinks take longer to spawn changes nothing. I'm willing to bet there will be one person in a queue sync that will be a proto amarr logi (at least level 5 with a standard suit) to come in every now and then to spam links then jump onto a kill suit. I bet that people will keep CRUs red to spawn camp them and not even bother capturing them.
