I was thinking today about the big fleet battles in eve.
Now that the two biggest powerblocks called all their allies to the fight, today will be a pretty big lagfest around 49-
My question is partly to the devs, is there a chance that we will witness the biggest battle, with the most participants today in the history of mmorpgs? In the history of multiplayer games?
Generally are there any numbers, facts about that? That would be a pretty big advertising force.
Did CCP prepare for it in any way? Psychologically, looking at how this many people react, how they are led, being FCed, would be very interesting too. Generally EVE has a potential for LOTS of experiments about many people working together.
Technically? Were there any examples of so many participants in one battle before? If the battle will not be as big as its expected now, then my question is generally about the big eve fights. Do you CCP guys keep any logs about these?
I thought about using these awesome, really one of a kind aspects of eve for my dissertation, i wonder why noone (or at least i didnt find it) thought about that yet.
Anyway, im recommending all carebears or those who cannot be there, to keep an eye on this because you might hear about this day again.
Also this is NOT CAOD PLEASE! Im expectiing constructive posts, no flaming and i dont care about your alliance tag in this topic so act accordingly!

They broke that number last week. System was approaching 1900 people.

There could be a lot of theory crraft about how to manage fleets like that effectively. I would certainly enjoy thinking about it. I wonder if fleets that big will really be able to engage without debilitating lag, even with CCP notified about the potential fleet engagement. I also wonder if the fleets are just going to throw their blobs at eachother and have a big long slugfest lacking real creativity.

Edited by: Mithfindel on 29/03/2009 15:27:33 Alledgedly, the abortion of the second Lotka Volterra titan in Omist was a bigger fight. (Admitted, they faced a node death or a few. Edit: Also I'm not sure if they all even made it to the system.)
Also, when the node running the game lags, better computers won't help, since it's the server that lags.

Well i have to say its amazing. We are at 1700 local and there's hardly any lag. Congrats to CCP. Maybe a few words here, answer to my questions and some comments on the battle from CCP side would be appreciated :)

i'm sitting here (in 49- ) since almost 12 hours. Was amongst the first 5 who logged into system after downtime and didnt log out since then. No desync, even at top local count we had manageable module lag with lots of people on grid and brackets on.
Only time i noticed big lag spikes was when people were bridging in.
Local started to drop now slowly, really amazing how CCP managed to reinforce the system node.
If only every system and battle would be like this.
So can we know if you did any special reinforcements?

Another one who has no clue about what "lag" is ITT.
Btw., 49- will not be playable IF, and that is IF, any reds/blues actually manage to get in. Having been in the last big fight there, it's nigh impossible to actually get into a crowded system when a fight is happening. ----------------------------------------------

Ok i give up.
I was expecting a mature conversation (or at least 1-2 answers) with ccp, and i was trying to be helpful for their "efforts" in 49-.
What i get in return is get f*ing trolled in the middle of general forums by a dev in another hastily created thread.
I just dont even know what the hell i was thinking. One dev's manners is the whole CCP manners. Shame.
This was the last time i tried to be constructive and helpful towards CCP, great job showing the community AGAIN where you come from...

You're a fine one to talk about manners. If you spoke to most people in real life as you spoke to CCP Atropos, you'd get something a lot more definite than a "np". Something your parents should have given you a long time ago, in fact.

Maybe you should have posted in the Game Development Forum and not the general chat.
And tried posting with a serious topic note instead of a 'UBER PWN WTF BATTLES EPIC BATTLES COME INSIDE AND POST AND ****, I WANT A MEGA THREAD' topic title.

This was directed to the general chat.
How exactly was my topic title anything close to this "UBER PWN WTF BATTLES EPIC BATTLES COME INSIDE AND POST AND ****, I WANT A MEGA THREAD" ??? Oh you want my stuff now i get it...
So was it a joke now or not?
"You're a fine one to talk about manners. If you spoke to most people in real life as you spoke to CCP Atropos, you'd get something a lot more definite than a "np". Something your parents should have given you a long time ago, in fact."
God i thought you knew my parents or me. Hm. The next time you see a politician or a police officer or any official person sink to his "opponent's" level tell me. Oh wait, its only cool in eve to be evil and piwaty and to kick around all norms.
Yes i think that few words is something an official ccp person MUST bear without smacking back. I wasnt cursing i wasnt personal i might be just a 6 year old stupid boy, but he's a CCP dev writing in the forums!

Listen, if think you're entitled to speak to people the way you did and receive anything better than a "np", why are you speaking this way when replying to people? You're being a very great deal ruder than Atropos was. Live up to your own standards if you want anyone else to adhere to them.
Nothing says that a dev has to kiss your a$$ when you act like one. Face it: you acted like a jerk, you were treated like a jerk, and now you're getting all angry and emo because you've been called on your bad behavior. Which is exactly how sulky teenagers behave, and exactly why no-one likes dealing with them.
Grow up or shut up; either would be fine.

You really dont get the difference between the "5 year old boy" or sulky teenager if you say and the "official CCP dev writing in forums" do you?
I still think a dev should take more jerkness than me thanking him something, without trolling back. This might be acceptable from me as a sulky teenager but not from an official ccp dev mkay? I cant say this clearer.
Ofc in these forums its a cool thing but thats not my problem. If you think this is how it works IRL then im not the one who should grow up mate.

So in essence what you're saying is that you're aware that you spoke rudely, but that the dev should just let get away with it because your information is so awesomely vital or something?
Whereas their opinion seems to be that you're not important enough to speak like that to them.
Wow. Just wow. Are you an only child, perchance, "mate"?

Funny how you wanted this thread to be the one everyone goes to to read about this and then decided to derail it yourself
This is the internet. You don't decide what gets read, everybody decides for themselves what they want to read. A dev read the other thread and replied (maybe having also read this thread, maybe not), get over it (and yourself).

@Achar Losa: Seriously dude, get over yourself. There are hundreds if not thousands of subscribers who at some point have written at least one thread that was genuinely created to be helpful, and I'm sure all of them hoped CCP would respond to them. Unfortunately, you can't always get what you want. It's life, move on. Others have, I'm sure you can too.
But apparently you couldn't.
Quote: also, thank you for writing in this thread and ignoring the detailed one.
When you post that in a thread where a Dev responds on the same subject, you are just a pathetic attention seeking little kid. And when you make it sounds sarcastic, don't expect anybody, including a Dev, to not return the favor and be sarcastic back.
And now you make a "boooohooooo the Dev was mean to me" post here? Seriously: grow the **** up. [/thread]

Estel and dutchdude:
You dont get it, i think you didnt see me complain about him not coming here after thanking him. Saying get over it the third time wont help, i was over it the second i wrote it to the dev.
My problem for the 100th time is his answer and yes i do expect a dev, especially a dev to not be sarcastic when talking to customers. edit: but thats all you see everywhere in eve, thats the style and as i said somehow its cool in these forums. The next time your petition gets rejected you'll see it too.

As a new guy, I am amazed at such a concentration of ships and look forward to learning more of these kinds of war.
But to the Achar Losa guy,
You are being very rude and if you had any decency you would admit to being a turd and apologize. Your comments regarding an honest query by a ccp employee are poor. You deserved your snub in the other post. If you were that arrogant and condescending to me, I would not even loan you a squirt of pi(ss), even if you were on fire.
But what a photo that is. My understanding is that the very powerful BOB group has been dealt a severe blow lately and are on the ropes so to speak. Now they are trying to rally with their also powerful allies. They are fighting against the largest alliances in eve. Is this about right?
Man, lots to learn, great game.

Idiot is a word derived from the Greek ἰδιώτης, idiōtēs ("person lacking professional skill," "a private citizen," "individual"), from ἴδιος, idios ("private," "one's own").[1] In Latin the word idiota ("ordinary person, layman") preceded the Late Latin meaning "uneducated or ignorant person."[2] Its modern meaning and form dates back to Middle English around the year 1300, from the Old French idiote ("uneducated or ignorant person"). The related word idiocy dates to 1487 and may have been analogously modeled on the words prophet[3] and prophecy.[4][5] The word has cognates in many other languages.

First, i never said it was a well mannered reply from me, for the 100th time again my problem is his reply and if youre new to eve you will see how ccp works in a few months.
Also if all of you guys really are that cool in real life as you say... well i dont know you but you must have achieved a LOT.
Second, i could swarm the topic with 2 day old alts too who approve my new born hate against CCP.

You really think an official answer is allowed to be anything close to that? You think that is how real life works, should work, thats what you see what you'd like to see and thats what you teach your children?
Hell no, its the style of eve forums and ccp...

Clearly it is beyond our ability to help you let go of your delusion. I hope you seek professional help. Good luck with that!

"also, thank you for writing in this thread and ignoring the detailed one"
This is what you say is an arrogant self centered asshat's few words, worth issuing a ban. Congrats. You seriously miss parts of this forums, i advise you to spend more time reading.
To dutchdude: i dont get it why its satisfying for you guys to go that personal. There must be lots of stress that you can only spend here.
There is just no example of this anywhere, not in real life not in any other mmo, what you guys saying is just not true to anywhere else but eve and a few of your, - i did once to this man , and if you were doing that to me... - romantic thoughts.
Just imagine what would have happened if that dev swallowed my trolling as they do thousands of times every day (without banning btw) and he wouldve let the topic go on, without replying and being an ass in return to an absolutely non important 5 year old child sinking to his level.

Why would a dev have to swallow trolling? They're ordinary people like you and me. Well, like me anyway. You being a customer and them being an official representative does not mean you can do what you like and they have to accept anything. The response wasn't even rude, just a friendly 'no problem' to your thank-you note.

Oh well then i see no problem here. I thanked him, he/she said no problem. Move along. Thats totally normal.
You know as long as those official representatives act like humans and not official representatives and show the example trolling back, noone has any right to judge me no matter how much i whine or troll the official representatives. You ordinary man.
Anyway you might have destroyed a nameless alt in 2 threads but its not my reputation thats hurt by trolling customers back and letting start a whinerage against a 7 year old nobody rather than just going past it as they do in a LOT more serious cases.

Elaborate trials full of artfull lawyer dodging are rarely needed with pictures of the op standing over the body with a smoking gun in one hand and using the other to write FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!1111 in urine with his dong.

People like you are the reason Devs stopped posting on the boards so why don't you just stop posting. And no, I'm not trolling you.
Stop. Posting. Now.

Wow, massive boohoo-ing from the OP here. A simple "np" turned you into a non-stop tantrum throwing 5-year old? Good lord, aren't you a fragile little flower?
Well if you had a brain you would know that in massive battles like this, it is usually a slide-slow and not a massive fight that you'd see in a Hollywood movie. Also, the players routinely fraps large fights of this nature and post them on My EVE for the general population to watch. As for tactics, there is not that much going on when numbers reach 1500+, a fight will break out somewhere in system (usually on a gate or POS) and then everyone and their mom (literally) will warp to the fight and then it is usually sort A-Z and take down the bad guys.
You might get a small ISD story about the battle, but as for the things you are asking for, you need to actually pick a side, get a ship and undock and join in the fighting, because most 0.0 entities don't give a **** about what the average joe mission running carebear thinks about anything. They don't want every little detail shouted to every player and enemy on the cluster.
Originally by: CCP Whisper So you're going to have to do some actual thinking with regards to hull components and their capabilities instead of copying some cookie-cutter setup. Cry some more.

I've seen about 20 posts in two different threads stating this with varied wording and he has yet to accept the advice.
In fact, he has argued the advice nearly every time.

Can't we get together and author him a sticky? It's all he really wants. He could post it under his own name and put a link to it in his .sig.

There are so many flames in this thread, you could fry an egg on it.
Wait a second, that gives me an idea...
/me breaks out the smores and marshmellows
As for the original post..
Quote:
Did CCP prepare for it in any way? Psychologically, looking at how this many people react, how they are led, being FCed, would be very interesting too. Generally EVE has a potential for LOTS of experiments about many people working together.
CCP provides alliances with a means to request that a particular system receive a reinforced node during downtime in preparation for an expected battle. I have no doubt that the alliances involved in this fight requested a reinforced node ahead of time for this battle.
Quote: Technically? Were there any examples of so many participants in one battle before? If the battle will not be as big as its expected now, then my question is generally about the big eve fights. Do you CCP guys keep any logs about these?
I do not think that there have ever been any fleet fights as large as this before, as Jita actually ran out of memory (and crashed horribly) at around 1200-1400 people in local after the StacklessIO upgrade. This leads me to believe that until relatively recently, such a high number in local simply wasn't capable on the older nodes that CCP has been replacing.
I know this is not an official CCP log, but when I started a "large" fleet fight involved several hundred pilots. Through out all of EVE's history, people have been piling more and more pilots into fleet fights until the servers gave out. IIRC, fleet fights were around 100v100 when I started. Everytime CCP upgraded the server, this number increased bit by bit. IE, it went from 100v100 to 300v300 to 500v500, etc etc until now which is close to 1000v1000.
As for your comments about CCP Atropos, most of us believe that Atropos did nothing wrong. All Atropos said was "np" in reply to your sarcastic comment. Most of us forum goers encourage CCP to not act like they have a stick shoved up their rear when they post on the forums. We want them to be casual, unfiltered and human. We want them to portray themselves, not a business image that CCP wants projected. As such, when a dev makes a sarcastic response to a sarcastic statement, most of us approve. I would advise that you adhere to the golden rule - do unto others as you would have others do unto you.
