Epic Online Space Battle

Posted by Unknown on from the get-the-hell-out-of-our-galaxy dept.

New submitter nusscom writes "On July 28th, as has been reported by BBC, a record number of EVE Online players participated in a record-breaking online battle between two alliances. This battle, which was essentially a turf-war was comprised of over 4,000 online players at one time. The load was so large that Crowd Control Productions (CCP) slowed down the game time to 10% of normal to accommodate the massive amount of activity." This is the largest battle to ever occur on EVE Online.

    We went to war for the Space monies.

    And nothing of value was gained, but valuable time was lost.
