Originally by: Mire Stoude Edited by: Mire Stoude on 29/07/2010 22:39:38 The only thing broken is the mechanic that allows / encourages 1200 person fleet fights. Alliances should get together all civilized-like and just send their 15 best pilots against each other. Whoever wins gets control of the system. Yes, that is the only solution.
Also, stop crying and making it seem like lagged out fleet fights are something new. Empire is just fine, btw.
Bingo. The people that are whining the most are the people that bring 1K to every fight and complain that they can't bring more. You want to fix the game CCP? Make a stacking penalty for bringing blobs to a fight. The more you bring the less damage you do. That will fix the ****ing blobing and the lag. Encourage skill over numbers and when a gang of 50 kills a blob of 400 there will be no more blobs and lag. But nooooo. They want CCP to "fix" the game so that they can bring 2K. Than it will be 3K, 4K and so on.
The truth will set you free

What if you saw a car advertisement which showed a car driving along a road, and then when you bough it, it wouldn't start - but there was some guy in the back seat saying "so what? The cup holders and the stereo work, what's the big deal?"
If they advertised a game about mining and NPC missions, then we'd have a valid argument on our hands.

In this very thread I was told that "if you don't do it yourself you opinion doesn't mean anything" yet I have fought in battles bigger than that and they were not broken. I was playing on a laptop with mediocre grafix card and it was quite playable. This is clearly a signature. |

Well that's good because I hear when there are server problems, having a good GRAFIX card makes that all go away.

By the way, the UI development team was tripled... but don't let me confuse you further.
Please enlighten me. What did the achieve. Oh I forgot...
3 x 0 = 0
Actually my friend even before the team was expanded they caught a refresh bug in the overview that was causing various issues, including additional lag.
Opps, sorry, trying SO hard not to confuse you with facts...
You mean this one from december 2009? The last time they mentioned lag in their patch notes?
Please point me to the notes that say i'm wrong and i'll gladly say I was wrong.
No, I mean this one, from this month. No apology necessary, there has been a lot of information flying around lately.
Quote: So then why has the lag increased?? Please enlighten me oh wise one! Can you maybe get that info out of ccp's ass? You seem to be enjoying that place....
Actually client side lag has decreased along with the other overview issues that were introduced last expansion, it is the server side lag that is causing the issues you keep bleating about. Keep trying to copy PL's "fist" technique and you should have less to worry about than most... if you can find the time outside of your incessant whining.
Quote: On a serious note, thats a fair point and everything if it wasn't for the fact that even 100v100 fights are broken these days
Actually 100v100 hasn't really had any issues, but if you push much beyond 300 in system gun cycle issues begin, and much beyond 500 things go downhill rapidly from there. My saying that most aspects of EVE are quite playable does NOT mean that I don't recognize the current problems with large scale combat. It's irritating and badly in need of a fix, however it does not represent the majority of the game play available in EVE.

CCP claims lag is number 1 priority. CCP assigned unknown number of space cowboys ( from 1 to 15 ) to fix the issue. Incarna gets 70. How is the lag number 1 priority? If u are not here to troll - give me a logical response.
I want to build a new garage for my new car next to my house. I hire 10 guys to do this. Also my stove is broken and I hire two other guys to fix it. Then my wife *****es (complains) how my stupid garage isn't as important as fixing the stove so we can cook, which I agree to and tell her the stove is top priority. Now she calls me a liar because there are still more people working on the garage than on the stove, in spite of the problem with the stove seeming to be more complicated and taking some time to solve. So I'm thinking of redirecting 6 of the garage workers to help repair the stove, even though they probably just stand around and watch carefully, but at least I could -maybe- avoid more *****ing (complaining) from my wife. |

At the *most* there might have beem a bit over a hundred in system if you had actually took the time to pause the video and count the ships. That amount of pilots in a single system is *perfectly* playable right now as long as you tell ccp ahead of time. 
But hey lets not let silly stuff like logic get in the way of a good rant thread.

Edited by: Skydell on 30/07/2010 04:09:47 Best of luck to them. Many aspects of the game are very much broken in they cant be played the way the mechanics have them set up and its Lagg that is the cause. Dominion was the NGE of EvE. I dont know what they did but it really ****ed this game up.
- example of broken EvE: Right now to take down a station with one cycle of dread siege, you need 70 dreads. If you add 100 sub caps, support to that, pit two sides, thats 400 minimum you need in system. 400 in a system, mostly cap will be black screen 'o' death right now. The game wont do it. |

QFT.
People really should watch the video they are brandishing as some sort of "truth of false advertising".
Skydell:
1: You don't really know what the NGE is do you. 2: We have taken a couple of stations this last week alone, and dozens over the last few months. Large fleet lag issues made things tricky yes, but far from impossible... or even difficult.
I'm sorry my friend, I'm not disputing there are serious issues with large fleet engagements. But EVE is far from unplayable, even in respect to taking stations and/or territory.

We had a fight a few weeks ago, it would have topped out at 300ish (Just GF/Test and Atlas) and we were getting module and grid lag. Three hundred.
What's your solution? Smaller corporations? I wonder what that Sovereignty skill is meant to be for, since CCP clearly expects us to only have about 50 players in each corp.

Originally by: Pesky LaRue I don't believe they are the same thing, it's called an analogy.
We're paying for a product/service and if you're not happy with it, you can cancel - just like you could cancel your ISP, your phone, stop eating at a particular fast-food restaurant, stop buying BP gas, or whatever you choose to illustrate this point.
People become so emotionally attached to their favorite game they stop acting rationally.
I know it was an analogy, but there's obviously a difference in how we think. You seem to be willful enough to cancel your accounts and leave, or perhaps [even though you've invested a lot in monetary and quantum terms] you don't have much genuine investment in the relationships formed within it or the events going on in the game to stick around.
I don't know how you play so i couldn't comment on that. But for me, the social interaction and such is what keeps me here, so i don't see it as black and white as you in that CCP are providing a service, so if i don't like their ineptitude i can just walk away.
Also, your mention of 7 years of "EVE is dying" threads being tolerable and ignorable by CCP doesn't mean that this is going to go the same way. The problem with those past threads is that they were led by consistent forum whiners and the people within just over-exaggerating about the state of the game. I've played as long as you have and i do remember some of them. Stuff like "omg, nano is broken, this game is dying!" to simple things CCP could make changes to and they then put some effort into doing so. They were stupid claims about EVE "dying".
I remember the many many whinethreads over the years based on CCP's way of dealing with controversy in the game and seemingly favouring Band of Brothers, but when GoonSwarm disbanded their alliance, and outcry about CCP attempting to give KenZoku sov and overriding the timer for sov gain touched the nerves of so many people that after a threadnaught, the changes were revoked and CCP put their hands up and apologized for interfering.
So if you think this so-called childish method of dealing with the issue doesn't work on some level, you're mistaken. However, you're free to choose the method you deem most appropriate in dealing with the situation.

Well that sucks.
But being curious was it an ad hoc fight that escalated from a smaller conflict? Or was it a pre planned fight on a reinforced node that ccp was notified about?

Edited by: enterprisePSI on 30/07/2010 04:58:27 Think about it.
I do not think lag will be ever fixed. Unless they restore it 2 expansions ago. And then people will whine again about "ZOMG wheres PI and stuff"
They will deploy a patch that will "pseudo fix" the lag only to destroy it again on next expansion.
Only a well coordinated attempt will force them. Something like getting at least 60% of subscribers to not resub next month. Something like a strike. Off course such a venture is impossible..... Tears, or the titan dies!

It would be logical to realize that this trailer simply advertizes large fleet battles, rather than counting single ships. Oh well...

Only a well coordinated attempt will force them. Something like getting at least 60% of subscribers to not resub next month. Something like a strike. Off course such a venture is impossible.....
lag will never go away, but they have demonstrated that they can minimize it to the point the game is playable and fun even at larger numbers
what we have now is terrible lag with even moderate numbers and exacerbating that is other terrible lag that seems to show up with minimal numbers, traveling, across the board
they can fix it. if they don't, well we won't be playing this game much longer 
what i hope for is that they learn a lesson from this and
-once fixed, try not to screw with performance pertinent code they obviously don't understand anymore -if they DO change something and performance takes a dive, be responsible enough to say "our bad, we will roll this patch back until we can solve the issue"
ccp shouldn't be afraid to back out of a patch that hurts their game in the future. chop it up into several pieces if you can't figure out what's tipping the boat. whatever it takes. if they learn ANYTHING i hope to god they learn this.
--- Players are losing faith and loyalty in CCP due previous expansions not living up to player expectations. The CSM and CCP agreed that expectation management can be improved |

Originally by: Doctor Ungabungas We had a fight a few weeks ago, it would have topped out at 300ish (Just GF/Test and Atlas) and we were getting module and grid lag. Three hundred..
Well that sucks.
But being curious was it an ad hoc fight that escalated from a smaller conflict? Or was it a pre planned fight on a reinforced node that ccp was notified about?
It was a fight that you wouldn't have to petition for pre-dominion.

Alliances should get together all civilized-like and just send their 15 best pilots against each other. Whoever wins gets control of the system. Yes, that is the only solution.
Also, stop crying and making it seem like lagged out fleet fights are something new. Empire is just fine, btw.
Bingo. The people that are whining the most are the people that bring 1K to every fight and complain that they can't bring more. You want to fix the game CCP? Make a stacking penalty for bringing blobs to a fight. The more you bring the less damage you do. That will fix the ****ing blobing and the lag. Encourage skill over numbers and when a gang of 50 kills a blob of 400 there will be no more blobs and lag. But nooooo. They want CCP to "fix" the game so that they can bring 2K. Than it will be 3K, 4K and so on.
Dude STFU, If you were not in IT you would just be a douche but since you are you become a hipocritcal douche who does not know what your talking about Please re-size your signature to the maximum allowed of 400 x 120 pixels. Zymurgist |
