Drew Blaze	Posted - 2009.03.15 14:43:00 - [1] Edited by: Drew Blaze on 15/03/2009 14:43:13 Originally by: Sjobba #2: They didn't actually "remove" the classic client, they just stopped supporting it. Which is what happens to all old software eventually. Especially when newer versions are made. It amazes me how many people actually believe this crap.. Hold old is EvE again? .. They didnt want to spend the money on the classic client, like they dont have enough money... I can think of loads of program twice as old as EvE which is still supported by the company and others.. Face it.. CCP thought this was an easy way out.. it wasn't.. they lost hundreds, if not thousands of players to this crap marketing scheme. Classic client is lost forever and so are many players because of it.. edit* - spelling ___________________________ Secret Alt.

How old is FFXI? (Never revamped graphics, they still support their software and new expansions are still coming.) How old is WoW? (Never revamped graphics, they still support their software.) How old are countless other mmo's.. I could go on and on and on and on.... You are completely wrong and mistaken.. edit* - some facts ___________________________ Secret Alt.

WoW: The game was released on November 23, 2004 EvE: First released in North America and Europe in May 2003 What do you consider 'a lot newer' .. come on people.. think before posting.. and learn to count.. edit* - spelling ___________________________ Secret Alt.

World of computers? lol.. I feel like your just trying to argue for the sake of arguing.. Main issue still exists.. CCP did NOT need to remove their classic client because of 'age'. Period... (Give me the EvE Classic Source code.. I know companies and people that would still support it for many more years to come.) edit* - () ___________________________ Secret Alt.
Drew Blaze	Posted - 2009.03.15 17:22:00 - [5] Edited by: Drew Blaze on 15/03/2009 17:23:10 Originally by: Minerva IV They stopped suporting the clasic client so they only have to keep one client upto date, sorry but to me that makes a lot of sence. Your right about them wanting to focus on one client instead of two. However, CCP is a big enough company to have a team devoted solely on Classic Client and its 'needs'. Now having said that.. I still feel like CCP is trying to take the 'easy way out' and trying to force people to upgrade hardware when in the first place, it was NEVER NEEDED. It makes me laugh when CCP denies people of playing their game for the sheer fact that THEY feel the game needs to look better.. Here's a suggestion CCP: Ask your players, rather than your employees, if they would be able to play EvE with these 'upgraded graphics'. It was clear to me, leading up the the release of the expansion, that many people were going to have problems with the new graphics. Obviously it wasn't part of the grand scheme to make sure all/most laptop users would be able to continue to play EvE. edit* - spelling ___________________________ Secret Alt.

You make some good points and its quite obvious that there is no right or wrong answer or an easy way to 'fix' this situation. I still believe CCP could have kept Classic Client.. hire more people if needed.. Ill help : ) In the end, both my laptop and PC run EvE. -Laptop see some FPS troubles but its a notebook.. not a gaming laptop. I am still surprised I can actually play eve on this integrated piece of s*t... So I can say CCP is trying. -PC works perfectly and no problems with performance. So at the end of the day, I really don't have a problem with them upgrading, as I can still play : ) edit - spelling ___________________________ Secret Alt.
Drew Blaze	Posted - 2009.03.15 18:32:00 - [7] Originally by: Akularen Edited by: Akularen on 15/03/2009 18:26:55 it just keeps amazing me, that someone who pays 14,99$/Ç every month to play a game, can't afford (or just won't) spending the cost of a new (or used) graphics card.. You fail to see the biggest issue for this situation. Question) How do you upgrade a integrated video card that CANNOT be upgraded? Answer) Buy a brand new computer.. Blame manufactures that wont allow upgradable video cards... ___________________________ Secret Alt.
Drew Blaze	Posted - 2009.03.15 19:00:00 - [8] Originally by: Akularen That only applies to laptops, as desktops have a PCI-e/AGP slot free, when they come with integrated gfx's, so the problem ain't bigger than taking a screwdriver -> open the case -> apply new GFX -> play EVE. lol, thanks from the people that didnt know computer basics. lol.. Who ever has the ability to upgrade their graphics card and DOES NOT but would rather come here and whine.. now thats a problem.. However, not all people are not in this boat. A lot of users are in my 'shoes' as they have a laptop that cannot be upgraded in a way that it needs to be. Only fix is to purchase a new comp.. ___________________________ Secret Alt.
