Deviance, Forsaken Empire and a number of other of its allies recently engaged an enormous BoB fleet. There must have been atleast over 100 or 150 ships. This was supposed to be a deciding factor in territory. But as I type right now it is still going on. I am not part of this fight because as I hit jump to enter a system, 2 jumps away from the fleets, it took me 1 min and 30 seconds from when my character dissapeared to when it spawned me. But the really funny thing is that when I did finally get into the next system I found myself warping back to the gate I had just jumped through.
This means that if there were any enemies at all on the other side of that gate I would have been toast. And on top of all of that CCP would not of replaced my ship. Even though it is their feature that if you are lagged out, and your ship leaves a system without you, your ship still appears and follows the guidlines for logging off.(Warping away to empty space)
So I have two questions. What happened to the lag reduction that you spoke of? AND What is with this bogus feature of your ship spawning before you even leave the other system? I understand that this was a big fleet battle but WTF. I would like to be able to fight my enemy. This system is making fleet battles completely and utterly a waist of resources. I don't even know the outcome of this battle simply because it is probably still going on. Since half the people who jumped in got booted off eve and not can't log back on due to lag and the other half are still waiting for their ships to load |

Totally agree - I CTD'd just after the enemy fleet jumped into the system, have been attempting to log back in for the last 30 minutes.
edit - halfway typing the above - she logged back in - still toooo bad - shouldn't have to wait 30 minutes to log into the server whatever.

Lost my Assault ship there , couldn't lock, couldn't activate mods, couldn't move. Only saw after 3 minutes that i was blown up, by a single guy taking his time. Now i understand why these ships are not used in fleet battles...

Fleet combat is simply not an option with more then 30 people to a grid. The server is utterly incapable of handling it, and the situation gets worse with every patch.

Well at the start of the battle I could see 4 enemy battleships and that was it, I warped out back in 10 mins loading and then I could see everything. ( FPS not to bad but alot of net lag )
But then I died, I died because ccp haven't fixed there collision code - I was bounced straight into the enemy fleet after just comming out of warp.

yup,i warp to the main PA fleet, thought "omg i need a ****" after seein everyone, kinda slow but capable, musta been like 15/20 FPS, so yeah not too bad, playable and controls still fairly responsive like MWD.
The gate jump...omg was that bad, i mean its fun hearing the jump sound skip like a broken record with so many people jumping but the >minute jump was not that fun, first your "you are here" location info thing in the top left changes to the target destination. you eventually get messages like
Something is trying to warp scramble Something
And then all of a sudden the outside of your screen goes haywire with all the objects in space, ok thats not too bad, what is tho is your screen is filled with "SYSTEM ERROR" boxes so you pretty much have to hold down ESC for 10 mins clearing it all and even then the odd box pops up just so u cant control your ship right, FPS takes a massive hit to like 2/3 FPS if that and the only way to get to the gate and jump is the autopilot. Point defense is non existent as when you see that ceptor pilot within 10km and hit your webifier he's gone past you and back out of web range once it actually kicks in. guns just take too long to kick in too. So yeah it does become a factor of who can field the most BSes, close range is again screwed and its just exchanging volley after volley of missiles and turret fire.
fleet battles do not involve fleets, just a blob of BSes

Cover your butt any way you want... word is that BOB/m0o got owned after having a good battle yesterday.
There are some cheers going up... BoB humbled! maybe you gotta re-think your approach? |

a) there were no m0o present b) the end result was 14-9 in BS kills, to BoBs favour c) enemy support fleet got pwned
Next time try to bring enough to crash the server, you'll lose less ships that way.

I was there on an alt, somehow got killed by a friendly fof cruise while going in the opposite direction of that person's ship, at max speed with mwd going, in a vigil, without locking anyone to anyone provoke an fof. Exodus sucks ass.
