I visited the station shortly after that incident. Over 100 players around the place, dropping cans around it.

The incident in the video took place while the servers were down, and now there is a ruined station sitting in space with severe damage.
(Although you can still dock. The outcry if assets were lost would be a tad too heavy for ccp to handle)

As is normal and beginning to become expected with CCP, this teaser video is very well done.  It looks like it will be quite fun.

Playing Minmatar is "like going down a flight of stairs in a office chair firing an Uzi".

This expansion is about useless for anyone that plays the 0.0 game.

....good thing I made a alt recently...I want to at least try the "PvP Deadspace".

What do you mean, is the War only going to affect trade prices in Empire? Lol. I was looking to get back into Eve and was curious.

They way you get into it makes it so anyone in a Alliance cant do it. They can still go into the areas but its just normal low sec for them. You have to be in a corp that isnt in a alliance, or solo, then you join a NPC alliance. A ton of the RP players are outraged, they have been RPing for their faction for a number of years now and told they have to leave 0.0/disban their alliance, or just ignore that their faction is at war and needs their help.

Also, the rewards blow. SO it really is just a ploy to get people into low sec,  if you have no ties to 0.0 yeah you can go do it.

The war will affect nothing, its totally optional...which doesnt sit well with me personally, it doesn't feel 'EvE' if you know what I mean.

PS: go read the EvE-O forums if you want to get in on the drama this has caused / want to know more about it.

Ahh, so the guys who have corps in 0.0 and are roleplayers are feeling alienated? E.g., XUser was in Corp XCorp for a number of years and rped as an ally of YCorp and now all of a sudden XCorp and YCorp are enemies. Other than that the War doesn't affect anything other than sector ratings to those allied with the appropriate corps in the conflict? It sounds gimmicky, but at least it's optional.

The reason Alliances are not allowed in this new faction system is to stop them from taking over and keeping small corps and small groups out of the best parts.

While the rules might prevent direct participation do you really think that pirates and alliances are not going to bum rush the combat zones and disrupt everything? IMO for this very reason the low sec zones will not be well populated and everyone will still be crammed into high sec.

Point is this is all Speculation No-one knows how it will work so crying over what it Might be is a wast of time till it actually comes out.
