yeah... thanks for your concern Mr. Sensitive.
Guess You'll be just as ****ed off as I, if you'd recive a 400$ invoice for the cancelled party...
Thank you.
Won't they let you just switch it to the next week, I mean I assume your still going to have it on patch day? I'd try to talk to the manager and see if they'd let you switch dates.
Otherwise I'd just go ahead and have the party :).

yeah ..
We have to do the second thing, and have a "kinda lopsided but it's too late to stop the running train" beer party on Tuesday, and have a minor one at the real patch day...
It's kinda sad because a lot of HUN people took Wednesday off from work to make our beer parties even more awesome (read: drunk), than they already are...  And now it's one less reason to crawl out of their hole and get away from their clone for a couple of hours.
As a side note: Bar owners here do not like to switch / move , let alone cancel big (i.e. over 40 peps) happenings because most of them learned the hard way that this is not good for business. So most of them "secured" themselves with advance payments that can be used up or paid back after the dust has settled, and the party is over. (edit: either this advance pay, or your guarantee, that a "minimum", but considerate amount of consummation)
ps: If you're interested, look at our drunk faces from Dominion Patch Day Beer Party here: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1304168
(this vid is certified as awesome by everyone who was there to show the amount of happiness and beer that was there on that memorable day!)

Dear CCP,
As the intent of delaying the Command Center is to ôlevel the playing fieldö for the people that have not done their homework, why not level the field for the time zone as well. The current downtime is biased toward European Time Zones. A simple solution would move the release of the Command center to a weekend for the Americans as well as the European community. Why not move it to a Sunday for EuropeanÆs that would work out to be a Saturday for the Americas.
As the date and time stands I will be at a 16 hours disadvantage as it is too late to change my vacation days to correspond to the patch date. If this is the great land rush level the playing field for all. I want to have a Post Release blow out and hangover the next day as well.

It is so funny when people hear only what they want hear.
It is so obvious that devs realized they have serious problems with code and need lots of time to polish it. Marketing guys ofc are very unhappy.
So they made a compromise and will officially release Tyrannis with all the advertising hype at May 26, while it will still lack its' main component. That fact is further camouflaged with talks about "giving time to look around etc." And thats about it.

"Level the playing field" is a smokescreen.
PI is not ready and it's being delayed for that reason.
It's a good thing, TBH.

so some people worked and and tried the test server and some people didnt work and didnt use the test server so we need to equalize outcomes. makes perfect sense , remember the game is based in Europe where socialism is all the rage

I thought the whole thing was designed not to have any land grab elements to it ? That anyone could enter a planet and that would just increase the denominator of goods for all on it?
And aren't there many more thousands of planets than players likely to get into PI in the first year?
And, aren't things going to be produced at max rates based on skills sort of like datacores ?
And are't resources sort of renewed like asteroid fields or rats... they come back at a fairly predictable spawn rate (yet you can only take up to a limit due to skills as opposed to 'roids where you can mine to your hearts content?)
Guess my quick reads over the CCP press releases didn't get me the story.
Its not that people on Sisi shouldn't be better but that CCP could present a more detailed user guide... not that there are guides on how to use any ship features though.

It's also probably a good time to remind you all that we're having our next stress test tomorrow on Singularity. You can find all the information here.
You telling me that the battle in H-W didnt give you enough information? WE HAD MORE PEOPLE THAN FRIGGIN JITA CRAMED IN THERE!
Also: I bet that wasnt the only reason for a delay. These Sansha invasions havent happened since before i started playing. There was an IC reason for this. I'm intrested to see what the empire and concord reaction is to capital ships in high sec by the pirate factions.

While I won't lie and say that I'm not a little disappointed that the expansion is being pushed back, I think it speaks volumes of the staff behind EVE that they are willing to push back a release that they clearly don't think is ready. Releasing it in a two part package is a nice compromise, although I feel, like many of the other people in this thread, that you should have just said "It isn't ready" instead of giving a thinly veiled excuse of some people getting an "unfair advantage."
Hopefully you won't be afraid to do this with future expansions if needed as well. I only speak for myself, but I would much rather see quality features and improvements shipped late then a half baked product that meets a deadline.

^This, maybe it's a smokescreen, and we are fortunate. DOminion broke something. And FighterBombers were delayed too. New Mom is still MIA.

All in all .. great better to get less bugs later.
and honest realy can't see the great benfits for players that have been on test server. we are talking about stuff that current is in unlimitet numbers from NPC'es it's not like you can press the price to extreme levels like the moon stuff in Dominion. And that one learn'et me that good info before a patch just removes some bottelnechs.
and i don't see the timezone problem unless you can mine out a planet in hours. but i think that will be fix'et before it hit's live server. This is stuff that requires you to do something every 8 hours if you are going for max profit.
about the nuked max skills .. well you have weeks to get on the test-server and train the skills and you will have a more true test of what it will be when it goes live ( your skills on test server will be like they are on live server ).

I am saddened by this development, but I would rather have a functional release than a broken one. No Rush CCP, your players back you 100%.
While your at it perhaps you could throw in some new artwork for decorations(Medals) in corp. The medals are not shiny enough 
An overhaul on the player management system for CEO's & Directors of corporations in the next few months would be nice too. But all in good time I suppose.
Keep up the good work CCP.
Still loving the game.

Please for the love of the game stop putting lipstick on the pig. Its still a pig. Whatever sent large scale fights backwards, please undo it. And if tonights server crash was ANYTHING to do with a badly coded Sanshas "event", well, I don't need to comment do I ?
C'mon guys - Get 1000+ pilots in systems running over the whole cluster like Jita runs. Or maybe, as I have heard elsewhere, 0.0 has to bring its fighting to Jita where it might actually be playable ?

Unfair advantage? Sisi is open to all pilots, and any pilot learns inside of 6 months to test things on Sisi. Nah, smells like BS to me.

Lets fix lag and all that with the simplest possible solution.
A scenario:
CCP Fallout > Tuxford, why is the ethernet cable connecting Tranquility to our ISP in your hand.
CCP Tuxford > The logs show nothing.
CCP Fallout > And why is Singularity moved over from the back corner to where Tranquility is.
CCP Tuxford > I felt like having a change of scenery.
CCP Hammerhead > FREE BEER AND COOKIES IN MY CCP GINGER'S OFFICE!!!!!
CCP Tuxford > OM-NOMZ!!! *runs*
CCP Fallout > ...All this beer is going to go straight to my thighs.
Two birds with one stone. You get all the pilots you need for adequet testing, and we get to blame Tuxford for something again. Win-win.

...Tyrannis without PI is just...
So, really the expansion is being delayed for most of a month, but the publisher forced you to say it was only a week and hoped that we wouldn't notice that the only thing that came out on patch day is a new model for the Scorpion? Oh, wait, you are the publisher...
Not that I'm complaining about the slippage. I would much rather have PI not take down the cluster when everyone logs in and starts dropping command centers on every planet in high-sec on patch day. I just don't see the point of giving us the new model for the Scorpion, and maybe the insurance changes, when the real expansion will happen two weeks (or more) later. Just push the entire expansion and be done with it.

Will you be taking that extra week to change EvE-Gate to be an opt-in system?
I want to know the answer to this also. I can't believe you would go thru with making people's private info available for viewing by everyone and them having to figure out how to opt out of that. No brainer is make that 'opt in' NOT 'opt out'. Don't mess with people's private information.
My main concern is having to use (as I understand) your Eve acc and pwd via a standard browser this surely is simply increasing the vulnerability to a users details and accounts surely you should have seperate account and pasword for the initial external account then once inside the use of your Limited API would be far safer to verify who you are to the acc server.
That way you never need to use your main Pwd or Acc ID.
better to play safe CCP than chance a major hack of your acc server systems.

So how is logging into EVE gate different from logging into the forums or even THIS DEV BLOG which all happen in a 'standard' browser...
As far as opting out goes, I say the player should have the option of opting out of displaying his information on a per-field basis. e.g. I can show my character name but not how much isk she has, say my corporation name but not how many SP I have, etc.

As the organizer for the Hungarian Patch day beer party I am truly thankful for this "happening". Now I have to figure out a way to amend this situation and Hungarian bars are "absolutely not amused" to say the least when their booking for 70 people gets canceled. Thank you very much CCP!
Why don't you still have the party as scheduled? Sounds like you put together a great gathering of Eve players. Have a good time as planned. So what that it doesn't match up perfectly? Fun doesn't need to be perfect.

id rather more refinement less lag
Signature - CCP what this game needs is more variance in PVE aspects and a little bit less PVP focus, more content more varied level 1-4 missions more than just 10 per faction high sec low sec and 00 |

I hope that they bust Hybrids at least... Or rebalance some of totally useless gallente ships. After 3 years of nerfing its time to resore former gallentian glory.
Maybe this delay give CCP some time to do so. But more like that NO... And we will cry over most useless command ship one more year.

Could anyone answer this please :
Any rough eta of how long the downtime will be for the expansion? Will it be a 24 hour time (i'm sure there was one before), or a 12 hour? etc etc. This would be much appreciated, so i can plan my evemon accordingly, (waiting for expansion release before i remap)
Many thanks in advance
