For this first run, we're limiting the event timers to make sure everything rolls out smoothly. We'll be setting up more in the future and will be sure to have greater timezone coverage. |

We're monitoring these battles as the "official" fighting on the planet. Depending on how the results pan out, we'll adjust the direction of the storyline accordingly. If the Templaris Dragonaurs (attackers) win overwhelmingly, there will be less surviving DUST mercs in the backstory, while if Mordu's Legion (defenders) wins, more will have survived.
There is no specific reward for this event, but there will be something in future events. |

Hey guys, we appreciate the feedback here and everywhere else. We're quite happy with the turnout even though there are obviously some kinks/hurdles to overcome.
1) We know you can't pick which side to join at the moment. It's a bit of a pain, but our backend currently doesn't have the capability to do it properly, though we're looking into ways to get around that.
2) The problem with the corps switching away from the Templaris Dragonaurs and Mordu's Legion were unexpected and we're looking into ways to keep that from happening. In case it occurs in the future, we'll be sure to clearly identify who is supposed to be the attacked and who is supposed to be the defender.
3) THIS event did not have any specific reward tied to it, but we might be giving some extra rewards out for future battles. My lips are sealed about what they might be.
4) You're not only affecting the EVE storyline, you're affecting the DUST storyline as well. If you don't care about that, fair enough. But for those who do, trust me, your actions were noticed (and will be reflected).
5) We currently have to put all these events into the system manually, which means we need a GM sitting there putting in new contracts as battles end. This is obviously suboptimal, but is part of the reason the length of the events are restricted for now. We've got some crazy people in the Live Events team, however, so we've got plans to cover additional timezones and get some extended events going.

Is there a choice which side i get to fight with? if there is no choice then is mostly just random as most people dont care they just want to grind, or MCCC
We're working on getting that functionality soon.
Trust me, we're very very excited about having that in place. |
