Yes, they gave you months and months of advance warning about this
It sucks that you won't be able to play eve anymore and I'm sorry about that and I would be ****ed too but CCP isn't the cancer of the internet you know
Technically, they announced this in October 2010

Heh, my laptop has shader model 3 so i can run incarna it seems!
However, i was doing 15 fps before incarna at minimum detail, so i guess i'm gonna shelve my alt, so that's another account down!
I estimate a loss of ~250 or more accounts due to incarna. Who wanna bet?

Originally by: Mightylink Can't you play anyway? I'm sure the game will just drop the shaders for you so you can still see plain textures. Most MMO's do that to ensure all their players continue paying.

Yes, and then he can give me his stuff. Can we has a t-shirt that says "I survived teh lulz" for our avatars please? I'd totally effin' buy that!

Sorry to hear that, however that is the nature of PC Gaming. Technology will improve and either you improve with it or you can't run it. I can say that in the past i've had the same thing happen to me. And they are right, this was announced quite a while ago.
FYI CCP supports far older PC Models then the vast amount of games out there, your lucky you lasted this long IMO.
At least that this is not "I quit because CCP isn't bowing to my gameplay wishes thread."

This is so sad it brings a tear to my eye. Nah I am just screwing with you. Actually this was announced a while back umm about the time the new Character Crater came online it was said that come Incarna if you do not upgrade you will be sad. As such I have no sympathy for anyone forced out for lack of upgrading your graphics card. I do feel for you having to spend the money to do it because I had to but like everything involving computers eventually you must upgrade or lose out.

Originally by: Tshien Tze Outdated graphics card. No Shader model 3 support on my laptop graphics(my only PC). I would have been FANTASTIC if CCP could have, ya know, let me know in advance. I would have blown up all my stuff this week. It really ****es me off. Patch notes within the last few hours, no mention of my impending doom with my ability to log on. Last time they stated an update would no longer support a particular PC model, there was plenty of warning. I'll be a forum warrior I guess untill my account expires.
YES shame on ccp for improving the game graphics and overall gameplay! Boo to them for not considering my personal choice to use a completely lacking hardware setup that is incapable of industry standard graphics. How dare they upgrade things so that many many many players will get the quality that they want.

OK, so I haven't put my uber-geek hat on in a while to dig through all the dev blogs and missed it. Ever happen to you? Well it happened to me. Perhaps I'll dig the tower out and spend a little to update it and fire it back up. It's been years. But I've cancelled my account untill that day. Blameing CCP for the update? No...I just wish they would have been a little more forthcomming with information and not kept it burried in a devblog from a year ago.

I don't understand how people who have PCs that are so bad that this patch makes the game unplayable for them, are able to afford to play the game...
Seriously, this is hardly state of the art, top-end graphics here, this is years old already, 3 or 4 years old I think ...

I re-subscribed about a week ago, and I was aware of the new system requirements.
I mean... It isn't like I was just going to shell out some money for a game that was getting a major update in a matter of days without making sure I'd still be able to run it.
Not that I was genuinely concerned, mind you. I just built all-new machines for my wife and I about a month back. Spent roughly $500 on each of them - 4 GB RAM, nice new video card, bigger HDD, quad-core CPU... So I was fairly sure I'd still be able to play EVE after the patch.
But I just don't have enough money to go throwing it at things without doing a little research first.

They mentioned it a few times in their dev blogs. Also one of them had a tool for you to use to make sure your graphics card supported it. It's your fault really.

Yep, expect a lot more topics like this.
Some of us are on laptops, so upgrades are a new laptop or box.
In my case due to a desktop going boom. thus stuck with the laptop
It's not hard to do the monthly fee, but the new box. With the prices of gas, groceries, utilities and even rent going up. Not happening anytime soon. so I'll take my money elsewhere and enjoy what leisure time and funds I have there.

We are all the same we do not read the instructions when we get something new and complain when things go wrong.

Shader Model 3 is what Xbox 360 and PS3 use, and SM3 was out at least a year before they were, so it's at least 6 years old! Modern GPUs that are DirectX 11 compatible support Shader Model 5.
It is now possible to buy a Shader Model 5 GPU for $43. Just FYI.

Not really, that's the beauty of desktops. If 1 part goes boom - replace it. Very few parts cost much alone. If you don't know how to find out which part died, have a look online, there are tons of resources that can help diagnose what happened.

Look it's not that I can't shell out the extra x amount of $ to get a new PC and play play, it's that I ain't gunna. For everything else I do on my laptop, it works perfectly. I understand that some of you convinced your parents that you needed a liquid cooled core to do your math homework for college so they spent the $1900 so you can have a monster PC with 4 graphics card wired up. But out here in there really-real world, I've got bills and it doesn't make sense to upgrade my gear at this point just to continue with internet space ships. I enjoy it, but I don't want to take my $15.00 a month thing and turn it into a $750 this year thing.
