This event turned into CHAOS. Was all out war in the streets of Mara/Magog.

((It turned out into "No Event" actually..I have to admit,i can't remember when was the last time we had a war like that!))

I like the fact that Rarebit neglected to show screenshots of me attacking Ghost so many times before people found him that he turned off his pvp flag or the convo that ensued after the event.

Oh well at least we got treated to fourty screenshots of Phantompain...

I don't know why Runtimes are handed out if we're not supposed to use them. Mass PVP. Huge org battle. What better time, you know? I pop one, then "lolz, admin despawn. Your item wasted, operative."

I guess they're supposed to sit pretty in our inventory or something.

In my experience Rarebit likes his events very pre planned very in control. I prefer to think innovation in not only tracking techniques like me and Othin used not to mention relocation of rare items to give an advantage is appreciated and not shunned. However the conclusion I have come to is that Rarebit only wants you to be so good at what you do. If your any better he goes out of his way to punish you in any manner he can because to him it almost seems like he takes it as a personal insult that you want to perfect your play style or strive to do things better than the rest. Event structures seem like such a easily destroyed house of cards that anyone who isn't a flat out pushover is considered a "disruptor" and not a competitive partaker in the event.

Truth be told there's not that many "disrupters" left in MxO. I mean if we take the game world for what it is it's not disruptive to spy or be Rambo style pvp'ing and pop'ing items that are farmed in other events on another org's operatives. Disrupters are usually people who don't "get" the event or lol'spamming it. People who are working to forward their own agenda or their own name or faction/organization shouldn't be punished for showing willingness to go the extra mile or break out of the box at events, well, at least not on Vector because here they can actually be killed instead of just lol'ing around with a non pvp flagged character. Else there's always the server boot if they are truely disruptive, again the thin line... it's a story but at the end of the day it's a scripted story and if things are going the wrong way I guess Rare needs to try to figure out to get it back on track.

Grats to Pain for taking down Pace though!!! I heard that gives out a reward... *drools on big black Agent gun*... I hope the Merv recognizes that takedown, Pain SMILEY

I enjoyed this event, though I arrived late so I didn't actually know the premise of it all and was pretty much told to launch into battle. The all out chaos reminded me of some good old battles, though, both event related and not.

Oh yeah, I think if you get Runtimes from Live Events, you should be able to use them whenever. Just despawning them is making it feel more scripted to me, and makes me feel like the players have a lesser impact on the story. Sure it's just a consumable item that spawns NPCs that attack hostile players, but as a player when you do that, you feel like you actually did something kinda cool.

I used to see Rarebit just have players deal with Runtime bit usage, and despawn the one that spawned on the Live event Character(and later he made/put on Run immunity on LE characters so that wouldn't happen anymore). Then after the Raedar event he seems to just despawn Accelerated Machines spawned from runtime bits whenever he sees them used. I disagree with this practice, but, since he's running the event, I can see why he does it.

Box 4's, however, maybe aren't supposed to be used for Live events >_>

This event looked amazing. Pity i didn't get to make it Pvp at events, makes the event
