Can you pick which side you want to be on? I'm not sure which side is more detestable, but I'm thinking that the enemy of my enemy....still can pay me.... |

These battles are rigged! I can normally go toe to toe with a heavy and survive, here I can't make them flinch! The scouts seem to have indestructible shields, I can empty a whole clip in to their snipers with no result! Red dots don't appear until you're already under fire! Their tank's shields are indestructible so one dropped on the map and you might as well sit in the mcc! |

I kinda noticed this also when playing a game today in there. Fired all my militia rockets on a dropship, all hitting. Reduce its shield to half. Went to the forgegun, 2 shots, no kill. Fired my heavy to a LAV a complete charger, couldn't get through shield. Got tired of shooting vehicules...I was still dying from GEK AR at the same rate as usual though. Felt different, glad I am not alone. |

At least it's not just me! I think we should at least be reimbursed the isk lost on fittings. Has anyone been on the winning side of one of these yet? |

Whats the point of having these in the merc tab when:
1) you can't pick a side to fight on 2) the fight isn't in fact Templis Dragonaurs vs. Mordus Legion, but instead Bragian Order vs. Blood Raider?

This game does a very good job at hiding lag u wont rubberband or see other people rubberband but what will happen is the hit box will move out of sync with the animation. so basically it's your hit detection lagging |

Multiple factions are involved Bragain order is a secondary mercanry corp hired impromtu to fight where caldari navy is getting stretched thin. |

Sounds like a good set of questions...
Teasing us into choosing a side with the possibility that the result of all those fight could impact the storyline and end up with regular fights in no way different than your regular pub game could be considered a scam |

I can appreciate the roleplaying when its either explained through some dialogue, or something. The backstory to Dust and EVE is already deep enough to warrant multiple books, novels and chronicals + a whole encyclopedia. No need to add another layer of complexity to a first person shooter on a console that should introduce EVE to a new crowd.

The battles are not rigged, they're exactly the same as normal battles, except some of them have one hack point as opposed to four.. People insisting otherwise are just looking for an excuse for their poor performance on the battlefield. |

Quite a few people are refusing to fight for the caldari state today that may have explained it. |

i have noticed that there is match-making in play now. i have an alt char with around 700,000 SP. the pub matches i play with that character tend to be against other new players. those matches are relatively easy. my main character has 2,000,000+ SP and i see more experienced players with better gear in those pub matches.
so, it seems like if the game can do it, it will put similarly skilled players together. there might not be many people doing the uprising merc battles so everyone gets lumped together. people who normally play in low SP matches are getting into games with high SP players in the merc tab.
tl:dr : you aren't good enough (yet) to play against the people in the uprising games. |
