Which is why you resubscribe...
Markov folks would need to be in-game at 5pm PST to see what's happening on Emerald at 8pm EST to see what Werner folks are seeing at 1am GMT.
So 8pm est on monday eh? Doable.

I think that the camera shake test was all misleading. I think the shake is specifically designed for this event, even though they may use it later on as well. I think Auraxis will become unstable, forcing the empires to salvage the continents off of the face of the planet. Oshur will split apart before the salvage begins, it may be the first sign of what is happening on Auraxis. If we're lucky, we'll be able to see the ships which are transporting the continents over the weekend. Perhaps they'll throw us some curves while the continents (free of the planet's surface) are travelling through space. Very little gravity? The danger of literally falling off of the edge of a continent and being sucked into the vacuum of space? Eventually the continents will be placed on their individual planets and normal game play will resume.

Meteors....continents....alien thingamabobs......fun fun fun!
I think it's pretty obvious what they have planned and all. Gotta resubscribe, shucks.

FYI, Hamma, Spork edited that post and added something fairly important. You might want to change it on the main page.

predictions for how its going to happen?
Because the devs said that the 'final event' will be witnessed by everyone no matter the timezone or when they first log on, I predict that the final event will be the video they took. Meteors, earthquakes, and atmospheric disturbances will occur over the weekend prior to the video, which will be a narration of sorts, explaning what's happeneing. That's my thought anyway.

I like the annoying vagueness. Makes it seem like the humans really don't understand what's going on.

The TR/VS/NC High Commands have each posted on the forums now, with their own views on the upcoming events. It sounds as if you'll have to go to the Core to see the first events as they're stating that the beams have become unstable. The NC message is the best, complete disinformation.
NinjaBob
2004-08-13, 01:52 PM
so it starts friday 5pm pst...or 7pm central. its ongoing right all the way to monday 5pm? and u can view all it all over the world while you're playing? and what time is the 'final' event?
Madcow
2004-08-13, 02:01 PM
The timing of the final events sounds as if it's not relevant, since everybody will see the final event the first time they log on after it happens. I'm thinking the final event won't happen until after they bring the servers back up.

Someone get video footage omg.
Madcow
2004-08-14, 05:31 PM
I haven't been online to see them yet, but a friend sent me some FRAPS. Holy crap, the meteors look amazing.
Edit: Okay, I'm trying to host the 2 videos, they're small and low quality but it doesn't much matter. You get the point. I have no idea if this will work or not, just activated my webspace to see if I could host it.
