    there’s a lot being claimed here, but very little of it survives even a basic reality check.


    first: i’m not saying ares doesn’t hit big fleets. i’m saying he barely hits any fleets at all, and when he does, he uses a tiny fraction of what he’s built. if you’re pouring absurd amounts of money and resources into a fleet and then only ever committing 1% of it, at some point it’s fair to ask what that fleet is actually for. deterrence is one thing, but an arms race you never intend to fight still comes with all the usual risks - as this hit demonstrated.


    second: the whole "everyone hides in vmode so how could he hit anything" angle just doesn’t line up with what actually happened in this universe. I - and others mentioned here - were out and active for months at a time. flying, fleetsaving properly, taking risks. during that time, nothing happened other than constant fleetsaving on the other side. loud talk, zero pressure. that’s not being denied opportunities; that’s choosing not to take them.


    third: the accusations about bots, shared accounts, mystical activity, and "feelings" are honestly doing more harm to the argument than good. even the people making them openly admit they have no proof, no logs, no evidence. just frustration and suspicion. everyone’s entitled to feel annoyed when they get outplayed, but dressing that up as insight doesn’t make it meaningful. if something were actually irregular, there are clear channels for that. vague vibes and parenthetical disclaimers don’t replace facts.


    fourth: the "everyone knows" argument about vacation mode and the game being dead is just that: an argument by assertion. p2w mechanics, expo balance, speed inflation, and general power creep have done far more to shape the state of the game than a handful of players taking breaks and coming back when they have time. blaming specific players because they don’t log in 365 days a year is convenient, but it’s not analysis.


    at the end of the day, this hit happened for one very simple reason: a fleet was left vulnerable. everything else - hypocrisy, conspiracies, parasites, masterminds - is just noise layered on top after the fact.


    ggs to those involved, fr to ares, and i’ll happily let actions on the battlefield speak louder than forum fiction.

    PART 1 OF 2


    fellow thubaneers,


    this one started, as so many good hits do, with a call from biggy: evil jesus had just spotted ares’ fleet, sitting comfortably in what was effectively a dead account. opportunities like that don’t knock twice.


    we tried to wake up more people, but timing is timing, and in the end only worldeater was available to fly. on paper, we didn’t quite have enough firepower to wipe him in a single pass, but given the circumstances, we decided to go for it anyway and see where the chips would fall.


    the first round ended in a draw — no losses, no glory — so we reset, launched again, and cleaned it up properly on the second sweep.


    once again, ares is on the wrong side of a top 1 ACS.


    normally, i make a point of treating my opponents with a baseline level of respect. however, I have no respect for ares whatsoever. ares has spent a long time talking down other people’s accomplishments, while explaining his own setbacks by pointing everywhere except at himself — accusing others, blaming vacation mode, questioning mechanics, and even pushing for changes to the game when things don’t go his way. if you ask him, there’s always a long list of reasons why something shouldn’t have happened. the one explanation that never seems to make the list is the simplest one: his inability to keep his fleet safe.


    there’s been no shortage of commentary about how big hits “aren’t hard” and how achievements like these are supposedly trivial, yet very little evidence of that confidence ever translating into action. for all the talk, ares doesn't have a single top hit to point to, nor even a moment where a meaningful portion of that fleet was actually put to use. raw fleet size on its own isn’t an accomplishment, especially when it’s primarily the result of p2w mechanics rather than fleets being flown, risked, and grown through actual combat. building a large fleet by making hits and surviving real engagements is a different thing entirely. i’m not condemning cashing — it’s part of the game — but when it’s used to paper over weak fundamentals instead of complementing solid play, it quickly turns into an unnecessary arms race. pouring more and more into a fleet just to appear “uncrashable” is a classic sunk-cost trap, and a fleet built to avoid being used can still be lost.


    if the goal is to never get crashed, there’s a very straightforward solution: don’t build a fleet. once you do build one, though, it needs to be flown, protected, and respected — otherwise someone else eventually will.


    thanks to biggy for the call, to evil jesus for the spot, and to worldeater for being there when it mattered.


    disclaimer: the combat didn’t calculate at the time due to technical limitations, so the report below is a recreation based on the official simulation. profit values are taken from that sim; attacker numbers include the wreckfield, while defender values do not, as those aren’t provided separately by the simulator.

    came out of vmode yesterday just to grab the event reward. ended up grabbing something else instead.


    worldeater and i launched on diesel, but he moved. tizoc started spam-probing, trying to catch our fleets returning, but couldn’t see a thing. then, out of nowhere, he decided to yolo his dessies onto one of my deut fleets.


    so i jumped, intercepted, and that was that.

    top 3 solo, 2.8 T damage.


    sometimes the best hits are the ones that come to you.


    appreciate the donation, tizoc.

    Quote from Apostle

    The argument was we often have to dispute it just to get it right, when it shouldn't be.... unless it is the norm on both parties. I am curious what you guys put down in your tickets to see the other side of the coin. You know where to find me on discord if you are willing to share. :)

    sure, and we had to go back and forth too. there were corrections on both sides, just like you’d expect when support has to manually reconstruct a fight of this scale. that’s not a flaw in the system, that is the system.


    no need to read too much into it. everyone involved had the same process, the same path to dispute and clarify. and it played out exactly as it should.

    thanks for laying that out, because honestly, it proves the exact opposite of what some are trying to claim.


    support made an initial error, the defender provided valid evidence, and support acknowledged the mistake and corrected it. that’s not favoritism, that’s just… support doing its job. investigating, responding, updating the outcome accordingly. if anything, it shows the process worked as it should.


    if that’s the foundation for the “bias” theory, it’s a pretty shaky one.

    funny how people who weren’t part of the hit and have zero visibility into our accounts now suddenly know exactly who packed what, how much packs and res we had stored, and whether packs were used. impressive clairvoyance.


    as for the “custom treatment” claim: this was the first time in EN that a hit of this size choked the combat script, but it’s not the first time this kind of case was handled like this in OGame. support confirmed that EN would follow the same procedure, just like other communities have done in similar situations.


    and look, throwing around vague accusations about “bugged accounts” and “impossible queues” without a single fact to back it up doesn’t make you look informed. it just makes it clear you’ve got no idea what actually happened.


    if you think something was mishandled, take it to support. otherwise, all this just sounds like salt and speculation.

    Quote from Song

    Oh cmn now,in other community similar big hit happened and nothing was done.Surely hit needs to happen no matter of how big numbers are,i am not saying that just because you are Zero or KR hit was allowed,but it should be a case for everyone.


    Once again congrats to all attackers.

    Fr

    different community, different team.


    if a similar hit wasn’t handled properly elsewhere, that’s something to take up with that community, not drag into this one.


    no need to invent drama where there isn’t any.

    Quote from Song

    Game forge just preferred to have 4 spenders instead of one, that's it.

    In some other cases this was irregular fight and nothing was done,ofc in case of Tizoc GF knows how much he needs to spend to get his fleet back.

    I must say that Prongs and company tried everything to give attackers every single resource,good to know that at least someone finally listened proofs of Tizoc to get something in return.

    Indeed massive fight,a lot of numbers, great teamwork,a lot of money spent on questionable queues but in the end with fight like this you can just say Congrats.

    Tizoc sorry to see you down in a way like this ,when you just went to help but instead finished recycled.VFR

    ah, the usual cocktail of speculation and salt.


    let's keep it simple: nothing about this hit was irregular. nothing was done behind closed doors. no rules were bent, no favors pulled. the only thing questionable here is the effort to spin a clean hit into some kind of conspiracy.


    everyone involved flew their fleets, took their risks, and made the hit happen. support followed procedure, just like they’ve done before in big fights where the script chokes. no more, no less.


    the rest is just noise.

    fellow thubaneers,


    this one’s been a long time coming: an ACS top 1, finally confirmed after three weeks of waiting, spreadsheets, and support tickets.

    partners in crime: AGoodSydney, Worldeater, King Rabbit and myself.


    the hit itself? old news by now, but here’s the story behind it.


    biggy and rain kicked things off with a brilliant play. MD’d dominatrix and caught the fleet on a dirty FS. with diesel and ares locked in vmode, the only one able to defend was tizoc. textbook opportunity play by biggy and rain. they reached out and asked me to come out of vmode to help force MD dominatrix’s new moon, which was likely going to be defended. idea was: drop the moon, force the defend to planet, and make the rip stack vulnerable.


    Artist, Rain, Biggy, Lee Adama and me launched full fleet to cover the force MD. the moon went down, and just like expected, tizoc showed up on lanx with 4.6m rips.


    and then… the game broke.


    every single one of our fleets got stuck. had to scramble to reach support to get our fleets unstuck, but by then dominatrix had gotten away. but we kept watching lanx. eventually tizoc recalled. we had our window.


    AGoodSydney, King Rabbit and Worldeater came out of vmode, we moved in-system to tizoc, mooned up, and started planning the force MD on his return moon. we had the timing nailed, but the moon had to go. we launched the MD, and threw our speed fleets at it.


    meanwhile tizoc was busy packing hard. buying and instaing more rips. by the time we reached the moon, he had insta’d another 3.7m rips, but it still wasn’t enough. the moon went down, and the return time was confirmed.


    we launched rips first, joined up with speed fleets closer to impact. tizoc kept packing like crazy, ending up at 101T military, with close to 9.5m rips on the field.


    it was still not enough. we went through.


    except... we didn’t.


    as expected, the combat script refused to process it. seems like when certain numbers get too big, things just grind to a halt. even with only light fighters, a fleet with enough ships to trigger this would be worth trillions. fleets froze and after a long wait, everyone involved (including tizoc) got emergency banned. we knew this would happen, same thing's happened before in monster combats like this. support confirmed they'd manually process the result, as they’ve done in past cases.


    and now, three weeks later, it’s finally official. ships removed, loot added.

    ACS top 1 is in the books.


    massive props to everyone involved: biggy and rain for the opener, the whole team for the execution, and support for pulling it across the finish line.


    and to gameforge: thanks for making us wait three weeks for a single combat report—always on the cutting edge of 2005.


    tizoc, fr. you threw everything at it, but sometimes everything just isn’t enough.

    there’s a difference between taking a break and "playing from vmode"


    i was off since october. not logging in, not playing, not probing around. just… taking a break. that’s not the same as vmoding in and out to stay safe while actively playing. if i were doing that, you'd have seen me more than once in seven months.


    but sure, if someone gives me a heads-up on a fleet sitting, i’ll log in, make the hit, and log off again. that’s not "cowardly," that’s being efficient with time, and taking the chances the universe gives you.

    appreciate the poetry. almost feels like a haiku with passive-aggressive seasoning.


    just to clarify though: i was around for months, playing daily, flying regularly. there was plenty of time and opportunity to fight me then. funny how no one really went for it.


    now rain spots a window and gives me the heads-up, i take the shot, and suddenly it's "hard to fight against"... feels more like the problem is who’s paying attention and who isn't.

  • Solo Top 10 - [TOT: 1.260.616.952.000] Zero Two & Shark vs. Tizoc (A: 237.015.403.000, D: 1.023.601.549.000) TP: 558.909.301.291

    fellow thubaneers,


    got a fun one to share—a new top 3 ACS (or maybe a top 7 solo, depending on how you look at it) on none other than tizoc… again!


    credit to shark for sharing the report with me… well, sharing the API, since he couldn’t quite find the share button. so, i loaded up the sim and got ready to launch. only problem? i didn’t double-check the coordinates and ended up aiming for the wrong moon. shark joined in, but neither of us caught the mistake.


    about 10 seconds before impact, i probed, saw the moon was empty, and realized i’d launched on the wrong target. quickly re-launched on the correct moon, but by that point shark’s main fleet was already out of the game. he managed to add in a few probes, so technically it’s an ACS—just with a bit less firepower on his side.


    regardless, we’re calling this one a top 3 ACS (or top 7 solo, if we’re splitting hairs).


    tizoc, wishing you a fast rebuild (again)!


    fly safe everyone
