you forgot to move all level 4 missions to low-sec. this would populate low-sec and make the empire i run missions afk all the time in my uber cnr to have to play this game as a multi player game.
just sayin..

Edited by: Grista on 14/05/2009 19:42:46 The hilarious thing about the Cloak change is, as implemented, it would constitute more of a boost than a bane to the Falcon. Rationale follows:
1) You uncloak in your falcon, attempt to jam one or more targets, and all your jams fail. 2) You cloak, cutting off your ECM modules mid-cycle 3) You immediately cycle your cloak off, enabling you to target again 10 seconds from initially cloaking 4) You lock and start jamming, 11-12 seconds from when your jams failed, instead of waiting the full 20 second module cycle. The act of cloaking has also interrupted any initial attempts to lock you, including target-back auto locking.
edit: Enterprising individuals are testing whether cloaking will interrupt a siege cycle, in the meantime.

So CCP has ****ed up a patch despite HUGE player feedback for several weeks prior to the change (EVE players using SISI to test the changes, unlike the lazy ass Devs IMHO). Who would have thought eh? Its not like this has not happened sooooo many times before...EVE is a massively complex game and even the DEV's probably don't understand every nuance and tweak of the game, BUT the combined player base DOES understand EVE better than the DEV's, the warnings posted on several thread about the game breaking machanism and other unintended effects show that CCP is seriuosly remiss in not utilising this resource (the player base).
I'm studying Complexity Theory and Systems analysis and in umpteen case studies I've discovered that organisations responsible for complex products allways fail to understand how these self same products are used by their clients (they adopt a top down and technical-determanistic attitude to the use of their products by their clients). CCP needs to understand that with a product like EVE (internet based and with a client base of mianly tech-savvy people) its going to be unable to either hide its mistakes or fully understand the various ways in which players 'stress test' the game mechanics. For a company that uses the internet as a fundamental pillar of its business model CCP is appalingly unaware of the power of organisation and information diffusion that the internet is now finally maturing into.

It seems that players with sec status <-5 are no longer flashy. What is the deal with this? We pirates miss our flashyness.

Originally by: CCP Chronotis Hi folks, firstly an apology from all of us for screwing up and letting this slip through the cracks despite many of you trying very hard to indicate the serious gameplay fallout in the threads you linked previously . This started out life as a minor defect where a code fix was made to stop the ECM jamming continuing to work after you had cloaked.
Let's hope this will be dealt with soon then.

Apocrypha was a great expansion with a great new scanning mechanic as the core of wormhole exploration. Apocrypha 1.1 broke the shiny new scanning system. Apocrypha 1.2 is released and the scanning system is still broken in exactly the same way as it was for the last month.
So is it reasonable to assume that the devs do not consider fixing the brand new scanning system that all of wormhole exploration relies upon to be a priority?

After 5 years of playing Eve and watching blob tactics get stronger every patch I've had enough. Old alliances like Ushra'khan whole reason to play is to fly deep into enemy territory heavily outnumbered and try to survive. This patch has rendered a huge part of the game useless. No more solo roams, a complete class of expensive ships rendered useless and a big slap on the back for blobbage.
I can't even begin to express my anger and frustration with CCP's product development process. A very sad day and one where my subscription will no longer be renewed.

I despise having to wait 3 seconds to recloak in any ship. Not only does it have the delay in 0.0 but ive seen it happen to me in low sec as well.

There is definitely a delay for activating the cloak now after decloaking on a gate. It's not 3 seconds, maybe not even 1 second, but still very annoying, because it is very hard to time. Even if you know how long the delay is, the actual delay will vary because of lag, which depends on many unpredictable factors.
Also, if you have hit the cloak button too early for 1 time, you don't know if it worked when you hit it again, because the message is still there. This means activating the cloak becomes a chance game. You may hit the cloak button too early several times and never cloak. Or you may hit it again after you cloaked and uncloak again, which means you are ****ed. Only if you are lucky, you hit it just in time so you cloak as soon as possible without uncloaking again.
A chance-based cloak. Yay!
If there HAS to be a delay for activating the cloak, at least make it possible to "queue" module activation, i.e. you press a button once, and the module will activate as soon as possible. No more "you can't do this now, wait a few microseconds and try again" messages. This is a long overdue feature anyway, because it is a must in every game that is played on the internet with its inherent and unavoidable lag.
Either that, or remove this delay. I'm sure it was just another side effect of a side effect of another change.

Been away for a while, installed patch & got a black screen, uninstalled including settings & cache, downloaded 2gb, installed again and I got a new BLACK SCREEN!
If it's a joke it's not fun, moreover I wouldnt call it a successful deployment. Theat's ****ting on us. You should have rollbacked.

Originally by: Captain Campion because of falcon?
Funny enough, yes, this is all because of falcon. They wanted ECM to end as soon as you cloak as they figured this was exploitative. Instead of making the effect on the enemy end but keep the cycle going, they put in a wide-scale hack to make all module cycles end when the cloak is activated. That's what's caused all these problems. Also, as people have mentioned earlier in the thread, this may actually allow you to recycle failed jamming attempts by cloaking and decloaking again. That's a hell of a lot worse than jamming and then cloaking. I'm surprised they thought this was a complete and sufficient solution to implement and didn't forsee the obvious side-effects but at least it's being rolled back.

Did you read the thread entitled "Important information for players experiencing a black screen."? http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1072133

Amarr towers have had bits flying around them loose in space since Apocrypha 1.1 I think in a similar way. Haven't seen the tower itself move though.

Bull****. Fine MWD + Cloak trick is gone. Fine agility nerf.
But you screwed up bad. Really bad. People now cannot activate modules imediately after decloak. They cannot mwd. They cannot activate cloak and slowboat around. They either warp or sit there and die.
In 0.0 with a bubble and an inty with a web and a point youre dead. And its suicide for an fc to jump a fleet into an enemy gang because the fleet will sit around like ducks being tackled an unable to shoot on uncloak for seconds. The advantage to the defender is massive.
Its completely unfair and broken that you cannot activate modules when you are uncloaked and your enemies can.
Right now we're going to go camp a gate in 0.0 with a bubble.

They use discrete distance-based LOD on the control tower model and it looks like the highest level representation is screwed up. What it looks like is that the viewmatrix is somehow being broken for only that model but I doubt that's what's going on. The amarr one is funnier, there are little metal bits that spin around it and it looks like the POS is clapping. :D

Since I have not seen it mentioned anywhere else (still early in the search though)
Where's my money man?! /stewie voice
Seriously, I had about 15-20 market orders set to expire today, logged in expecting to see my wallet fat with returned isk and....nothing.
No record of orders expiring and returning isk, no record of any purchases on transaction log, no large isk transfers to show a hacked account or anything. And I'm short about 15-20 buy orders. Anyone else get something like this?

If you'd posted this where you were supposed to-- in the "issues" thread rather than in the "feedback" thread-- you'd have seen that they already have a fix for that. Now who's useless? Gloria Virtutem Sequitur |

We would appreciate hearing your feedback which can be posted in this thread. Please note that this is for general feedback, not issues or bugs. A separate thread for issues is available here.
Successfully? WTF. Not even close. What isn't ****ed up in this game at the moment.

Ok.
Simply I was playing eve last night fine I applied patch through update and get the black screen error too.
I tried the full download installing to a different directory and same deal.
I'm On XP Pro that ran the previous build fine. Say what you want but I'm telling you as a good many people have already......it's broke :(
How you can call this successful is beyond me. |

Keep up the good work, CCP. Honestly. Bugs and such here and there, and I'd love to be able to use my blockade runner again, but there's some steps in the right direction. Really happy that the Naglfar is finally gettin some love, though the weapons bonuses/slots may still need to be changed around a bit. But a sweet shield tank is a good thing :D Also, thanks for getting the Linux/Wine fix up so fast, not many companies would do that, especially not the same afternoon as the release. All in all, keep up the good work, keep listening to us, and stay honest (like I see you have). And thanks in advance for the cloak fix |
