I'm sure hellstorm would be down for this.

Good ol regular CB's

I do know that this was planned with mavado and kujo already involved but I was first to post about it. So yeah I kinda of assumed already.

You're so funny...

lol. Just sucks that we're being attacked so much. Hopefully it'll die down soon so we can get some real battles with the best corps through this

ROFLs making us rusty

Also (I'm not familiar with PC so bear with me)- do districts have set maps? If so, the map should be on the list. Something like a race on manus peak wouldn't work.

BSOTT will be, once Bojo gets his ass back on.

We should make a list of what the districts will be designated for. Including the "do not attack- clone production" districts.

Nah districts are only for fighting but not flipping districts. So you will only want to fight every few days here. and all attacks are going to be mutual only. Also if corps don't fight enough that defeats the purpose of it and will have to be replaced

I'm just saying there needs to be at LEAST 2 districts owned by different corps to keep a steady supply of clones.

nah each corp just gets 1 district. I admit you wont be able to fight everyday but that's what we have to deal with because we are limited with the current mechanics.

Also we already have about 20 corps that want in so giving 2 to each wouldn't work

I'm kind of the unofficial forum dude for Molon Labe. and I assume Kujo is handling the corps from League of Infamy, but we want in for sure.

I think this is a great idea, and I look forward to it happening in the near future. I guess my only concern is how are we going to keep other corps, who may not spend time on the forums or are completely ignorant to what we are trying to do, from attacking those districts? Not that im worried theyre going to beat any of us..but i could see that interfering with battles we are trying to arrange among the corps within the 'fight club'

This is why were discussing it; we would essentially have to keep every district pre-occupied with attacks or locking them. It will be expensive, so we will have to find other alternate methods if possible.

How much ISK could we get to support it if we started a bet system for the events that are going on?

Meh, you should do musical battle chairs meets king of the hill. Everyone gives up their districts and the 200+ corps that register get one district each. The smallest get the hubs. You can only attack the district next to you (someone will set the rotation). You keep going until one corp owns at least 10% of the districts and then reset.

Why not petition for actual cbs to be re introduced? But this does sound cool, one planet but don't police Holden heath, that would on be detrimental to the actual game on so many levels. People would build up their corp and save isk for planetary conquest just to be told 'no you can't do that' it would go against the very appeal and point of the game :-)

The way I understand it you are attacking back and forth not to capture. It would be a round robin type deal. Your just working within the current mechanics to make it possible.

If someone attacks the planet from outside the group they have a big bullseye painted on their chest. They might as well just announce they are quitting PC. They'd get crushed. Think about someone not a UN country blowing up the UN headquarters.

EoN. is down

I'm against this idea. Nor will I just give my districts there away. And the other side I see how it can be a good idea. I like going against the grain so.... That's just me.


But I will sell my districts there ;)

Another thing to bring up would be to lower each team by one to have a 15 v 15.

Still have the 16th players on each team, but utilize those two that have recording and streaming capabilities (in a private chat, and squadless so no intel can be given), have them fly around in a dropship for a spectator stance on the battle.

If one corporation is actually using dropships in the game: the two streamers could find a spot on the map with a sniper or a similar location to stream from.

Seeing how there isn't a spectator mode yet, this could be utilized to attract a more profound crowd, and to authorize the standings in every match held.

I like this idea. It would be useful from a wide variety of perspectives such as entertainment, education and confirmation for gambling. Does the aerial assualt pack come with a wierd colored dropship? It could become a sort of "don't shoot me, I'm the broadcast blimp" thing.

hey dust uni you guys want in? I know bojo is looking at a spot and we are going to give impswarm a district too.

also we are looking for mid/low tier groups who want to join.

Also havn't talked to anyone from ROFL at this time so you nerds should come play too

Seraphim initiative is in on this, right? Because it seems that they have the vast majority of PC

Prepare to be disappointed with battles with SI. They are the only corp in PC we get so much lag it's unplayable.

I guess it's the EU servers, but our matches with WTF were fine.

I've heard them complain about it too. If all their matches are that bad I'd be quitting too.

It's freakin terrible

If SI wants in sure
24 corps should be populating the planet

I'm asking if they already are.

Because thy pretty much own the planet atm.

So does this mean WTF want on the planet?

Selling districts on fight club for 200mil.

Ugh yea thats not gonna really happen, if you can find a buyer for that price more power to you but i wouldn't expect it.

at the moment this is still a lot of talk and very little action. So many corps are bored of PC I think it would be best to revisit this idea in july

I know beside planet fight club imps wont be back in PC till we can merc and get paid for it.

#DestinyRules

Agreed: it's something that sounds good on paper through the eyes of the Dust Community: even wanting to be a personal investor in the project, we are all just too busy for the ideology behind it all.

this.
things have slowed down a bit as well with E3 this week and The Last of Us coming as well

Its last of us and FF beta day.

Should have listened to us ccp, dust sucks

I just want bojo to get his ass online so we can talk about this. Haven't seen him in over a week, and the only HR besides me that I've seen lately was just a short thread from Vaerana explaining why she hasn't been online

a bunch of imps are playing -------/ dcuo/ ---/---------- right now

Ew

whats sad is I never had interest in the game till recently. As bad as dcuo is to me its so much more fun then dust.

I got to level 5 and stopped playing dcuo already. I have FF beta to keep me occupied for now

Honestly dont mind so why not.

I've talked with Dennie about this already and suggested that their 101st could fill a mid tier slot. I certainly don't speak for him or D-UNI but feel that they would be down for this.

G I A N T will of coarse be there.

We're In.

My 'clone bother' Dennie is up for the idea and agrees with nearly everyones else assessment that PC is now rather dull and too much of a grind.

Districts are only going to be important again when we get the PvE element of rogue drones start attacking them.

Though I don't know how CRONOS, well... how SI would feel about chopping up their nestegg to shuffle out to 24 different corps just to be ridiculous with but this idea is brilliant on so many levels.

I hope it keeps moving forward and is successful so we can have friendly ridiculousness like Inf4mous v Teamplayers Death Race

Seriously. That's the coolest news I've heard since PC started, and if we could have a whole planet of us just being cool and silly beyond the wars and battles elsewhere it would keep a lot of people interested in a lowered stress environment.

We need this. DUST needs this. Everyone, even if you're not interested in being a part of it, come together and make this happen ASAP and not SOON*tm!

SI has only 1 district left to hand out and its taken. Anyone else will have to contact Ill Omens. Good luck.

Hey guys,
I will make this quick, and go ahead n assign my corp to the low tier category. But I am willig to not interfere with designated districts if labeled accordingly. As I am desperately trying to train my guys up, it would be nice to know what fellow lower tiered corps would want to get matches in, so the first intro to corp battling for my men isn't against you proto'd out juggernauts (honestly NOT the greatest morale booster, speaking from experience). Also, as we prepare to take our first district to get a clone base of operations setup, any advice? Is there a section of Heath that is designated for newer corps (we're at over 1 month), aka if I took a district from that area, you guys wouldn't just come and stomp us out? I know if we ran into any of you, the subsequent battle would mean certain annihilation of everything I have spent the last month laboring so furiously for. So please, if you see us on the map in the upcoming weeks, give us a chance.

P.S. ANY and ALL useful tips are greatly appreciated.

My most sincere thanks,

Anybody interested in attacking us? Timer is set between 21:00 and 22:00 eve time.

That time sounds perfect for us on Saturday. I'll double check numbers and get back to you later. Happy days What district?

Edit: If another Corp confirms before I get back to ya, no worries

From the top of my head it is 15. I also need to get the roster set up but that will probably be not a issue.

Same as on the roster. Once I've checked I can get back to ya at 9pm GMT tonight

hmm, I checked some, could we make it Sunday?

Sorry bud, we can't do it. If we get organised again I'll give ya a shout ingame.

A pity, it might be good to know that I am at GMT +2 when you want to contact me.

It seems you put an attack in on saturday. Can we expect you then?

Yes we will be there. I pulled the trigger on an impulse thing financed totally by one member looking for a fight on Saturday night (cue the Elton John). Evening GMT was the only stipulation and the clock was ticking on the 24 hour mark. This was the first District I saw that met the time and wasn't already locked or under attack.

Understand...we were not looking to **** in anyone's cornflakes. Total coincidence you had already been talking to Dunc. Just looking to mix it up with no plans on "taking a District". Faction Warfare is getting stale. Might not even have a full 16 but you guys do what you gotta do. See you in the funny papers

OK, no problem, I or a member of my corporation will set up a channel before the match to have fun in after the match.

Good game guys. Sorry couldn't field a full team or put up a better fight. Fall back...regroup...and maybe try again down the road. Happy Hunting and GL against the next adversary.

We finally get a fight club match!!

Hookin up with Burgezz tonight!!

Looking forward to it

It has been going great so far. Would be nice to see more CORPs participating.

I would like to know who is interested in joining. This will be oddelulf which has 24 districts. The idea is for top/mid/new corps can have good fights and not about taking districts.

This has been planned since PC started since CCP took away our grudge match abilities in dust. With that said Imps are done with PC. We didn't get beat up or burnt out we just got bored with it so we are we hope this will make the game fun again not a job.

So please sign in this thread if you want your corp to be considered. ALL CORPS are eligible for this. Also it will be a group run thing after corps get picked.

Rules are simple

1 only mutual fights
2 have fun



Also while imps had planned on removing cronos from the districts the fact that they gave up has left us without the motivation. So please those that want spots be prepared to take it yourself. more details to come

You would have more fights if you broke up your super alliance. Wouldnt SyN and OH vs TP be a great war?

Looking at the planet itself, I can confirm that it has no available districts for corporations to take up. However, I'm pretty sure that doesn't mean that you can't still participate in the fights, if you're willing to spend ISK on clone packs every time you wanted to have a battle.

I know this is late, but i don't think anyone from Burgezz ETF has checked in yet so....
Here we are.

I personally believe that the fight club will help our newer and veteran members who've yet to participate in PC a chance to experience this current iteration of the game mode. So we will be more than happy to participate with scheduled training matches.

If anyone is interested in setting up training matches, feel free to contact me via in-game mail.
