Howdy folks,
!*! The Bet !*!
IF: In each of the next 3 mass-tests, after the one tomorrow, we have 500+ players show up and participate; I will do one of the following:
(you'll get to vote for which one, if I lose.. I will then post pics on the forums as proof)
- Wear a kilt and war-paint
- Dress up as an exotic dancer for the next CCP staff-meeting
- Answer petitions for a day, wearing a wig, dress, and high-heels
- Dye my hair pink
BAH!
make it more interesting, as i won't have any good come out of it for myself or any other players should you loose... no offense but none of the above remotely interest me
how bout some incentive!!!
prizes or something of eve monetary value, seriously, i go to take up more hdd space for something i barely ever bother to do, you need to give me more than i'll change my clothes or hair color for a day, so far away form you that you wont even know it, seriously m8
try a bit more monetary value to it and you may get better results
A for effort, go for that A+

How about you agree to a no-holds barred interview where you answer any and all questions posed to you regarding EVE development, etc without holding back?
Nobody cares if you dress up... we want results and honest responses without "dressing up" the truth the sound nicer than it is.
If CCP isn't going to be honest with its customers, I see no reason to volunteer my free time to do their work for them. You won't see me at the mass test unless you give us something of value in return.

why not do something better? Such as bonus sp for those who do show up for testing, or rare ships, several millon isk, honestly im not big in seeing pics of men in drag. I'm sure that We The Players are getting benefits in the scheme of things in the results of these tests, but they are not making isk or improving standings or getting immedate benefits from testing. So why not make it a little more benifical for them???

How about a Mass Test Lottery? Make it for the Mass Test, get a chance to be awarded a faction BS or a cruiser or even a t3 cruiser to be awarded your character. Or a plex? Or even multiple winners... top winners get three plexes, second gets 2, third gets 1, 4-6 gets a faction cruiser, and 7-10 get a faction frig. Or something along those lines.
A meaninful prize will make for a meaningful turnout.

Wow, you guys are whiny and greedy. so that being said, you should really read your posts, my nieces and nephews don't whine as much as you guys do.
Anyway the benefit - finally finding that lag monster on the server side and kill it. If that isn't a benefit enough then go back to that one game that mr t plays.
Other rewards - did you guys not read his entire post? ships and sp to play around with on test server? I remember the day ccp staff put guardian vexors on the market on the test server. Epic lag and hilarity ensued.
Well why not just watch fleet fights on TQ and fix it from there?
- sorry kids fixing stuff doesn't work like that. I know people in fleet fights aren't running the famous Logserver which gives ccp detail realtime reports of how your machine, client and communication with the server. So unless 0.0 runs logserver during fleet fights and turn it in to ccp.......
#2 Do you guys really want ccp testing fixes live on tq? Seriously are you that dumb?
You guys say ccp are making no effort to fix stuff, there is a dev blog and other stuff proving that they are, but you take it and slap them in the face, and tell them to fix it. It's really kinda insulting to them. BUT the more effort we put into helping them find the lag problem the faster they can get off that project and get to the back log of changes.
DID not a single one of you think that they have a lot of people trying to fix the problem? That they would rather be fixing the back log of changes than finding why lag is happening?
/end rant
Finally - I agree with the braveheart at the office, but change it for CCP defending it from the creators of that one game company. And record it.

How about, uhm... FIXING THE LAG? Isn't that the whole point of the damn thing? Or at least keep the players updated on the state of affairs. Something as simple as "we have started experiencing issues with 450 people online, if we get 500 we will get conclusive data" shhould be enough.
That or fix FW or half the other bugs.
Oh wait, you told that to CSM that it cant be done. Quit F-ing with Incarna and maybe you wouldnt need this as youd have it fixed by now.
You dont need people to fix bugs. Seriously if I wanna see a guy in a dress Ill do it myself. Ive done it before.

Friendly amusing topic backfires and critically hits enthusiastic (and innocent) CCP employee for 10000 cynical disapproval.
You wanna reward us? Tell your bosses to fix the damned game instead of playing with digital ken and barbie dolls.

How about offering in-game incentives? Maybe credit the account with the amount of time a player spends helping test? Isk? Something...

You want to get people to swarm onto Sisi, maybe try offering up the chance to buy & fly Polaris frigates (on Sisi) for an hour or so after the scheduled testing, and Jove ships for 24 hours or so following the testing. I wouldn't go so far as making the GM-equipment for the Polaris available, but some Jove modules would be interesting enough maybe. And after 24 hours just clear them from the market, hangars, & space. Bring 'em back again for the next test.
*edit* And only offer the chance to fly them for duration of the test within the system you've designated. Maybe just disable the outbound part of the gates for that system for the duration of the testing, then let 'em loose.
Just a thought.

Lighthearted thread (with a smattering of real content, namely the SP on SiSi bit) turns into raging hatred at CCP for reasons already covered (and debatable) in other threads. And you all wonder why CCP doesn't like looking on the forums.
ITT: People ignore the fact that to test measures to prevent/reduce lag (or whatever client-side changes they're doing), you need many people to create a laggy environment and/or try out these changes. Instead, they all say 'hurr well ccp won't do anything anyway' when every other mass test seems to have been something less than massive, thus negating the effects of testing such changes to the server code/programming/what-the-****-ever.
If you hate CCP/EVE so much, then unsubscribe. You can subscribe again when they fix whatever issue you have. It's not a difficult concept. If you stay, despite all of your "well, against my better judgment, I resubscribed and hope for the best BUT CCP needs to..." posts. CCP isn't going to do **** about balancing stuff, or fixing existing features; they're committing their resources to Dust and Incarna for the time being. I'm not going to say I agree with this decision, nor even that I like it, but I accept it as something that they chose to do. I'm grateful they don't have as much of a disconnect from us as other companies do. It comes with having only one franchise (and, for the moment, game) to worry about, but the point remains, few other companies are as willing to get customer feedback -- and respond directly to it, proving that they aren't just filtering all our emails through a machine -- directly to the players, even if they don't ever change anything. As that picture (don't have it atm, it was the one with the CCP Troll) says, every expansion: some things change. Some things stay the same. That's the way it's been since the beginning, and I'll be damned if that's not the way they stay.
TL;DR -- Harden the **** up, or quit EVE. Your choices are really obvious, at least to me. If you think the first option is too demanding, that "BAAAWWWW ROCKETS ARE BROKEN" or "FW SUCKS THIS IS STUPID" or "PI IS A WASTE OF TIME I WANT LOW-SEC MADE BETTER", then just leave now. I think it's pretty clear at this point in time that you're not going to get any of this **** anytime soon.

Idk if they could get the game to act this way. but i know if they are just looking for sheer number of people to come to the mass tests, just give everyone all level five skills for the day and spawn all the faction ships. If you do that ton of people will get on the server. Then just take attendance at the mass test (pop of system/ pop of server) if that hits an acceptable number keep the free ships in for a day or two then remove them. Rinse and repeat. So far all these mass tests are to fight lag IIRC and we are not seeing the lag disappear so if you want to get players on give them prizes quantifiable to them. Instead of tanis pretending he doesn't already do these things...
This is barring that to reverse the give outs you have to remap. that would bloooow if remaps were happening every week or so and I keep having to train cap con four and hauling mom parts.
Or maybe add in an option for not spending the next 18 months adding crap and just fix things we want. quality != quantity.

You obviously haven't read the blogs, they already said the problem with the lag is *not* client side. These tests are for client side ****.

Wow. I must say, it's been quite a while since I've seen a thread that makes me feel like this much of an optimist. Seriously, a good-natured attempt to get more people to help diagnose lag problems, and you jump down his throat? This is one of the few things CCP is doing that we should all favour unambiguously. It might not be the optimal approach, but it seems to be, by all accounts, a serious effort. You can cut them a little bit of slack, they don't take away your posting privileges for it.

Might help if you indicated in your post when the first of those mass tests is supposed to happen.
Also, confirming these tests are, from conversations I've had with various devs, invaluable in helping solve issues.
So just show up.

Second, join the "mass-testing info" mailing list on TQ. We send periodic updates and info about test events to this list, which ends up directly into your in-game mail box.
