So they set a reschedule for EU with the new dropsuit event, but no black eagle reschedule for those on the Americas who missed out? What the hell. |

They added 2 hours to the Black Eagle event. While not perfect, they are trying... show some appreciation for people who put out a 'free' game and events that they have to manually set up. |

2 extra hours? Really? The EU get a whole other timed event for themselves. Try again. |

Whatever the plan it worked. I got ten of the Black Eagle suites. Then again EST has an easier time connecting with Europe than everyone else westward. |

Quote:which means that starting March 18th at 22:00 GMT and ending March 19th at 06:00 GMT you are aware that the above line means that a dev/devs are going to be staying at work for those hours to monitor the events? and those are already more USTZ friendly hours then before anyway, it's near perfect for quite a few US players but time difference will always mean that some people will miss out |

Uh-huh, and Im sure you are happy to work an extra 8 hours or come in on a Saturday just because some customers were complaining about your store hours... seems reasonable |

CCP is trying their best to keep everyone involved in the story, however, they can't cater to everyones timezone all the time. I forsee events in the future being held with little to no forewarning, and at seemingly random times.
The point of these events is that they are LIVE events. to pre-schedule them kinda takes a little away from the experience. Truthfully, we are probably going to have a lot of these events going forward, as there is a lot of "explaining" to do in the lore as to why the capsuleers should "accept" the mercenaries into their lives, etc.
And during that time, I'm sure you'll get to participate in some of these events. that said, something tells me you aren't upset about missing the event, more so about missing the opportunity for free gear. yes? if that is the case, we'll have plenty more events for free suits/gear. it might not be the same gear, but it's really just a badge saying "I was there!" |

Hey..
War is unpredictable.
Do you have any idea how a live event in eve happens?
Most of the time, you where at the right place at the right time in the wrong situation. Rarely are there a heads up. |

Who cares man? Its a BPC. I don't even use anything less than a Vk0 now. Why would I even care about a level 1 or level 3 BPC? |

I think that this is probably a first of many instance. I would assume that this is a first attempt at having two seperate events for the main regions. Cut them some slack, I see this a good progress. I sure there will be many more events and suits and maybe even some that revolve, one battle does not win the war.
So the Black Eagle suit will more than likely come back again in another event.

CCP has to stay at work to maintain these events. At least they are trying to have them and be the best for people as they can be. |

Its a big deal to me, expecially when everyone else has Black Eagle. The point is Americas QQ and nothing. EU QQs, and they get another resheduled event for their timezone. That is bull I think.... |

The Americas QQ'd, got the event extended, and got word from the Devs that there would be another Black Eagle event in the future.
Stop claiming persecution just because you missed out on a crappy BPC.
And if you really NEED to have the black eagle suit, I will gladly sell you my remaining 8 or 9 for 1 million ISK a piece when the market opens up.
Actually, make that 10 million ISK a piece, just because you want to cry. |

Youre completely missing the point. EU got special treatment over the Americas. That is prejudice. If they cant adhere to everyone, then they shouldnt treat a select few with special privelages. Americas get 2 extra hours and EU a reschedule? Is that a joke? |

All I see is entitled pricks who feel the world should be handed to them on a silver platter. There will be another chance to get the suit, now STFU.

No, you are completely ignoring what actually happened.
First, they posted the event times.
Then NA players cried like little girls. So CCP got their employees to stay late, just so that NA players could get an increased window to get into the event.
Do you understand that? They went out of their way, altered an event schedule and had employees stay late, just for NA players.
Then, on top of that, CCP Eterne came into the thread and told NA players that there would be other opportunities to get the black eagle suit.
This time, instead of having anyone get upset, they have split the event so that as many as possible get the suits off of an event.
They not only went out of their way to get NA players involved, they altered the way they do events and gave the next events first run to the NA players.
In what way is that prejudiced? It seems very evenhanded to me. |

Same here disgusting really isn't it you might not got every item in the game before the player market eventually opens and be forced to buy items from other players with that giant wad of ISK most people have just sitting around I demand a patch giving everyone everything.
^ sarcasm BTW.
Actually this bit is non-sarcasm where are the event logi drop suits I really need a BPC copy of an inferior suit to what I use but in shiny new colours
Also did anyone actually use any of their black eagle suits or is everyone just hoarding like me? |

There's no point to using them anywhere other than the War Barge, I took it off because to many people had it. Just like how Proto suits are no longer awe inspiring. |

1. CCP have openly stated that they WILL be giving out more Black Eagle suits in future events at some point.
2. CCP have openly stated that they're working on options - which the latest event was probably used to test - which will allow them to broaden their event timetables.
3. If you still think CCP are prejudiced kittens, see points 1 and 2. |
