Gg lets do this again sometime soon, the HMGing didn't go so

Did anyone actually participate in this?
I heard Carbon 7 beat AE, but they would have been q-syncing Minmatar anyway, and beating the f*ck out of anyone they face anyway. They probably didn't know, or care their was a "special occasion".

A small delusion of DUST 514 is if you don't know about it, you don't think it exists. There are TONS of top corps and players in this game that could give a flying f*ck about PC but could smash anyone in MH. Just because you don't see them in a PC Warbarge doesn't mean they don't exist...

I've come across players that don't sweat dropping 40 bombs every game they play, or getting 8,000 WP on a regular. When I try to recruit them, they all say the same thing "I don't care about PC"

When I asked how things went, Crabon 7 didn't win but AE gave them money because at least they tried to fight. Good sportsmanship O7


The rest of your post is of course the typical "we can beat them easily but we don't even care" bragging.

Getting 40 or even 90 kills in a pub match is no accomplishment because most of the people playing don't even know what they are doing.

Pub match heroes = That one person usually out of 32 who knows how to play very well in pubs while the other 31 are afking, goofing off, sucking, TKing/Sabotaging, or trying to learn the game.

PC match = 32 people who know how to play the game and are that 1 out of the 32 in pubs. In other words, all 32 in PC do what the 1 guy in pubs does too but they also play a game mode where everyone on their team and the opposite team are actually a threat.

TL:DR

Pubs are for casual playing

PC is for wanting to fight people who actually can kill you

This is why I actually wish we had PC stats and Pub stats in the game.

OH! Another opportunity BAMM!

I like everything but the following:
- Players currently in DNS or Negative Feedback at the time of this post are not eligible for the reward. This event is intended for those outside of current PC to test and prove themselves. DNS & NF corps have other means to do this.

AE. is in an alliance good, great, grand...

Doesn't mean that in these "community events" we cannot have some friendly competition.

I think this is an awesome idea and wish I was around to help SDK this past weekend. None-the-less, I hope to be around in the future to help with more events.

Also, the reason for the DNS clause is because as the current holders of the vast majority of PC we have the means (Districts) to schedule these kind of battles ourselves in a much more effective manner. Our hope was to give players whom did not have a desire to spend ISK on the frankly ineffective clone packs a means to test their capabilities in full team battles and encourage more group play.

Overall the response within Ancient Exiles was very positive. The opportunity to play together as a full group outside of PC was something we had not done prior to now and I think anything GÇ£newGÇ¥ is at least initially seen favorably. LetGÇÖs face it we have all been doing the same things for a while now. I have a lot of players whom want to continue this event and even make it multiple days during the week.

Outside of AE the response was mixed but as you can guess a lot of this was forum GÇ£MetaGÇ¥ about how we were trying to ruin a game mode which seemed to totally forget that there are a lot of corps whom q-sync faction warfare already. Outside of this Meta I did get a variety of messages in game from opponents whom were looking to fight us and many GGGÇÖs. We even got a few fights in with groups that were actively gunning for us and even though those groups did not win we took the opportunity to reward them for their effort. In addition, we also paid out several ISK rewards to individual players who stood out with extra effort or said IDGAF about being outmanned and brought the fight to us.

Some ideas I had and possible changes we are looking at making:

1)Increase payout for a win.

2)Schedule and Q-Sync a couple opponents per event. I though trying to find us might be fun twist but perhaps we should set up a couple Q-syncs for those who really want to fight us.

3)Add some written and tracked individual challenges. For example let us just say I put a Bounty on a certain, much loved, A.E members head for the duration of the event.

meh don't listen to the QQ'ers, since FW was revamped TEAM/NF/ERA/etc have been Qsyncing Amarr FW almost nonstop...

I'm level 10 amarr now, early on the rebel scum put u a fight and some good matches, but for the last 2 months its literally become the shoeshiners convention.

I'm almost lvl 8 caldari now, which is saddening cause Caldari are the worst for OB support. I feel bad not playing amarr all the time anymore cause the PIE guys and those with them by and large have been great supporters. I blame my teammates for the Caldari QQ.

there are still a handful of Qsync regulars, but sadly not many. Im hoping more events like this change that

I kept asking which heavies were doing well or atleast making some type of attempt and no one could say. I was in the city on each and ever match waiting....No heavies to be seen
