Howdy folks,
We are currently working on a new patch, Apocrypha 1.1. In this patch will be several performance enhancements, as well as many bug fixes and other changes. As part of our ongoing Need For Speed initiative, we need to make sure that things run well. In order to do that we need to run some tests on Singularity so that we can get some good measurements on the new patch as well as get your feedback!
These tests will begin Friday, March 27, but the more people who show up, the better. We need at least 100 pilots, preferably 400+. _________________________________ Test schedule:
Friday [March 27] @ 19:00 GMT Tuesday [April 7] @ 17:00 GMT Thursday [April 9] @ 17:00 GMT _________________________________
How to connect to Singularity for this test:
- Make a copy of the current Tranquility (TQ) client
- Visit the Sisi patch page.
- Patch the copied client to the Singularity build
- Login to the singularity test server
- Join the in-game channel "FleetTesting"
- Disable brackets | Read here if you're not sure how
- Listen for instructions and ask questions in-channel
What exactly is being tested?
- First part of the test will focus on Fleet vs. Fleet open combat
- Second we will move the engagement to a pre-setup Starbase (POS)
- You should pay attention to your FPS (use ctrl+f to view in-game)
- Anyone able to use multiple accounts is strongly encouraged to bring your alts!
- CCP and ISD will be on hand prior to the test to help move players to the starting location
- Don't forget to fill out the feedback thread after the test (links will be clearly posted at the end of the test!)
What should I bring?
- You will want a Battleship, carrier, dread, or support ship
- Fit drones!
- Use weapon grouping
- Spider tanks are nice to have

/signed.
If its at all possible for just a quick mash up list of intended fixes it would clear up the forums considerably. --------------

You really need to get about 100 carriers on the field with fighters attacking a pos mod or a station ( this lags the game to **** ) Also look at capital bumping please this **** is brutal.

Will this patch contain an option to turn off sound muffling, so we can actually hear sounds and explosions again? If not, fail.

If it can fit modules, deploy drones, generally do anything that can create lag, it's wanted. Battleships are because when the lulz start, Battleships can take the **** longer so the test goes on longer.

er... Because that doesnt work? the moment it starts to download I get "patcher has stopped responding"
This has been a problem since apochrypha went onto the test server over a month ago, there has been 10's of patchers and updates since then and they always do the same thing. Originally they supplied another file that we could put in the same directory, but now they dont. So my only way of getting onto sisi is to download the entire thing again.
The same thing happened when it went live too.
So no, I wont be coming on until that problem is resolved. I realise its not a problem for everyone but it needs fixing.

They still provide the file that you put in the same dir and it all works fine.

I will ensure that the mac client is available for the next test.
Though, note that the next test is not until Tuesday April 7 (next week!) ____________________________ I break things.Ö
