Ultimate Wingman Tournament

Saturday May 30th, 19:00 UTC

2v2 PVP battles in a standard double elimination. 20-25 mil prize pot to the winning team, along with collectibles and unique items for the top three teams.

You can either find your own wingman, or I can try to pair you with someone who's also looking for a wingman.

Please reply to the RP thread to signup.

I hosted a tournament like this back in October 2010, and thought it'd be nice to end the free period with some pvp. Hopefully some vets will come by and we can relive the old days!

Open TeamDX for 08/23

A schedualed TeamDX match will occur on 08/23 at 02:00AM UTC, somewhere in Sedina! TeamDX is a Team Deathmatch event where pilots of all colours, calibers, and standings use a mixture of piloting skills and teamwork to kill as many enemy players as possible, all to earn points and secure a team victory.

This event is currently in its "Open" summer series, where rules are a little more laid back and registration is not required. Pilots may show up at any time while the event is running [common running length is one hour], which is when they will be assigned to one of two teams. Pilots may begin combat the instant they warp in, and earn points for every kill against a pilot on an enemy team. At the end of the event, or match, the points accumulated by each team will be tallied, and the winning team will be announced.

Do what you can to make the event a seamless experience! Make sure to follow the rules set by the event host; the general rules list will be covered before the event in the general chat channel, or you can PM the host "Rules" to have a list sent to you directly. Additional rules may be set by the host, as well, as this event is still actively being adjusted.

This PvP event is hosted in greyspace. Any pilot who wishes to participate MUST understand there is no factional protection in greyspace, and participates knowing the dangers that entails. Additionally, any pilot who wishes to participate as a spectator MUST contact the host BEFORE the event.

The code used to manage this event is still in development, so the event may be put on pause to fix problems that may arise. Please help by giving feedback about functionality during the event’s break times, and point out potential flaws. Locations for feedback exist on the forums or on the TRI guild discord server.

Company suffers severe data security breach!

Late on the 18th, a transport hauling a secured data vault was disabled mid-flight when anonymous pilots used a security flaw in the transport's local sector identification array to download the entirity of the vault's data. Within a half-hour, the previously secure data was found in the possession of an opposing company's VP, but officials declare attempts to trace the data's source impossible, preventing an arrest. Fortunately, the data contained no personal data, consisting of corporate data on an experimental phase modulator.

The manufacturer of the data vault has already issued a recall of all affected units, but has only received a tenth of the malfunctioning units back. Future vaults will have hardwired protection from the vulnerability, but new modules will not be available until later this year.

There is rare ore in the system and adventure that waits there for the right person to find it. You need to be brave to handle the dangers of the Unknown System!!

TeamDX 2021 Open series [Match 5]

TeamDX is a team deathmatch event between pilots of all colours, calibers, and standings! Enjoy unaligned team-based PvP in Latos with us - all are welcome! Come gather in Latos stations on August 8th, 1:00am GMT [use /time in-game], in order to prepare for the event's beginning. The event itself starts at 2:00am GMT, though pilots can arrive late without any penalty. Pilots will be assigned to one of two teams as they enter the sector, and must gain points for their team by destroying the ship of an opponent pilot. The match can last for up to an hour, if all goes well.

Those wishing to spectate should message the host the key word "register" - pilots will be given the spectator role, allowing them to be ignored by the auto-recruitment system. Spectators should maintain a healthy distance from the fight.

Those unfamiliar to TeamDX should contact "Luxen" in-game, on the official discord, or on the forums. All non-capital ships and equipment are allowed. NPC assistance is not allowed.

Do what you can to make the event a seamless experience! Make sure to follow these general guidelines:

-Please remain within a reasonable distance of the sector center!
-combat begins the instant the host is active, so you can begin firing on anyone once you've jumped in and recieved your team membership
-Pilots may not leave the sector to reload. Doing so will penalize your team.

All game rules will be gone over before the event begins, including what isn't listed here; you can also message the host the key word "rules" to recieve the rule list. Again, contact "Luxen" for specifics.

This pvp event is hosted in greyspace. Any pilot who wishes to participate should understand that there is no factional protection in greyspace, and participates knowing the dangers that entails.

Calling all Ne'er-do-wells and rebels against the ordered capitalism of the UIT! Prepare your ships, your blasters and your buddies! A VaultRaid has been called against a convoy carrying highly classified data! Their route has been identified, and their encryption is compromised - all we need now are participants. Attached to this transmission are the details of this event. There is much risk to joining, but with it comes a great reward!

------------------------------------------------

A VaultRaid has been scheduled for 11/07/2021 at 02:00AM UTC (11/06/2021 at 10:00PM EST); The event will be located in the Ukari system, with specific sector details available at the time of the event. To attend, simply enter the sector once the details have been announced at event start. The transport is expected to be disabled for half an hour.

VaultRaid is an 'objective capture' event; by positioning your ship within the objective range of the transport, you will slowly accumulate objective progress. You can also obtain objective progress by destroying other pilots, which will net you part of their progress.

If your ship is destroyed or if you leave the sector, you will lose a large portion of your progress.

The first pilot to capture the objective will receive 10 million credits. Any other pilot who also captures the objective will split another 10 million prize pot between them.

The pilot with the most kills will receive a bonus 1 million credits. However, kills must be obtained BEFORE you finish capturing the objective.

If a pilot is able to be the first to capture the objective, AND has the most kills, they will be rewarded with a premium key.
