Conspiracy Theory

[Red Dot]

They keep taking the servers down after patches because of these extra lines of code they put in that cause the glitches. Then when the servers are down they make up reasons to blame Freight Yard or Dam Defense (or both) then they remove them from the game again.
This way no one can finish off all the pursuits.

That and the Illuminati.

I'll take six!

Yeah, sure, but how much will I have to pay to reset it when I max the thing out?

About 36,356 scrip, and they're prone to vanish in the salvage matrix.

If you are going to make it a conspiracy theory, then you need a few more levels of intrigue. The laid off Trion employees put in code to force the restart for a delayed period of time while the 'severencepackage.exe' worm did it's work, draining creds from everyone's accounts in the downtime. Of course they had to outsource the work to create the worm to Lexcorp so there was a sub-sub program to also discover the identity of Superman. Unfortunately for them the aliens at Area 51, a super-intelligent species of space squid, realized that it would thwart their plans to create a society that revolves around schoolgirls and tentacles so there was another sub-sub-sub worm to replicate items in the patch to distract from the downloading of mind-control tentacle anime onto everyone's hard drives in the meantime.

I won't even mention how the vegetable overmind has gotten involved, it should be obvious to everyone.

haha, yes. i like where this thread is going!

You see what had happened was... the laid-off employees knew that it was coming. So, there was a few extra snippets of code added into the 1.02 patch that was not suppose to be there.

Such a B.S. theory. This is so obviously a crossover event that involves Earth Military Coalition hackers punishing the game for its namesake town rebuffing their advances and rejecting EMC funding for the new rail spur into Defiance. Blame the mayor, Amanda.
