Titan Cocijo - Meltdown in 4.5 hours
Titan Cocijo in Earth's orbit will detonate in 4 hours 30 minutes from now. To view this one-in-a-lifetime (water flowing underground) event, you'll need to be present in the Titan's area as it detonates.

You will not need a Thargoid Pulse Neutralizer, Caustic Sinks can be found at the Rescue Ship Hutner. Mines are active, caustic is still present.

It is recommended to sit under 20% thermal, but as primary ships are evacuating you are less likely to be noticed.

Good Luck

That's when we blew it up. For some of us, who enjoy working nights, that's a normal time.

It's a player-driven event. Players kill the titans, and 24 hours later the Titan blows up. FDev have nothing to do with it.

Fdev could just fudge the numbers to a not terrible hour.

'Terrible hour' is purely subjective.

What may be the ideal hour(s) in North America are not ideal in EU or Asia. A purely play driven event in a galaxy shared by thousands of active players is fair and purely democratic.

It's about 1800 in Sydney. It's a perfectly reasonable time. This isn't a one-country game.

That's crazy, how about the other 90% of the playerbase? It'll be very early morning or late night for the majority of players when it blows.

7 in the morning here, not sure you would find that reasonable. :p
(for others it will be 3-5 instead so i'm not complaining)

In any case yes, a global live roleplaying game will invariably have some time zone issues.

They didn't for the last 7.

And this one is blowing up at 4pm for me instead of 2-4am like all the others. Why didn't they fudge the numbers for all those so I didn't have to stay up half the night?

They didn't, no, but the last seven also didn't have a massive resurgence of players or the hype of "DEFEND SOL FROM THE ALIEN MENACE."

Ultimately it doesn't matter, I'm just saying fdev is capable of fudging the numbers.

Sure, they probably could have. I guess, living in Australia, I'm used to getting up at odd hours for 'worldwide events' that take place in the middle of the night.

Less than 10 minutes left to get your front row seats before she goes super nova.

3 mins left, I'm in a group with about a dozen others watching and waiting.

This is my eighth explosion event, and it never gets old.

This is, literally, the second video I've ever posted to youtube. So, apparently, I didn't have the audio set up.
