Just got in the new PC Gamer magazine, noticed an article about EVE Online and thought I would share a brief description of it.
| Quote: | "Contract killers devastate a mega-corporation in EVE Online"
At 5am on April 18, 2005, the CEO of the Ubiqua Seraph corporation (EVE's equivalent of a guild) emerged through a stargate in the Haras system, accompanied by her most trusted lieutenant. She wouldn't leave alive...
...by 6am, it was over. Every Ubiqua Seraph (UQS) office in the galaxy was raided, the contents of every hangar - including the corporate coffers - ransacked. Mirial's ship was destroyed, her escape pod nuked, and her vacuum-frozen corpse scooped into the cargo bay of a Guiding Hand Social Club vessel. This was the only proof its client had requested.
The ambush and galaxy-wide hangar theft inflicted damage upward of 30 billion ISK ($16,500 USD at IGE.com's prices), the value of the stolen assests dwarfing the original fee for the job. |
Damn...

Yeah, it happened in a game...but the real life dollar amount is around $16,500 USD. In EQ terms, it's kinda like someone logging on all the ED toons, looting their banks, and stripping them of all their equipment and looting it also...leaving them naked.

My friend/roomie and his dad play that game although not currently.
From what I know about EVE online that is pretty hard to do and requires lots of people.
I'd like to see a video.
