An optional patch will be deployed during downtime on Saturday, October 2 which will fix several issues reported to us following the release of Tyrannis 1.1. While the patch is optional, we would encourage everyone to apply the update to ensure your gameplay is improved over the weekend. The optional patch will be included in a future client update. A full list of updated patch notes can be found here.
Following downtime you will see a pop up box once the client is launched informing you that a patch is available and if you want to install. If you click 'Yes' then the patch will be applied and then you can log into Tranquility. If you choose 'No' you will log in to Tranquility directly but you will none of the fixes applied. If you clicked 'No' in error you can still apply the patch by going to the ESC menu, General Settings and apply the patch from the 'Install' button there.

Any downside to saying "no"? And I realize this is kinda 'front-page' news, but you really should post the same thing in the Tyr 1.1 issues and feedback threads.

There is no downside to saying "no" except that none of the fixes listed in the patch notes will be applied to your client. The fixes will be introduced at a later date so it will be installed at some point. As stated in the news article and in this thread, we highly recommend that you apply this patch.

Just in case you love **** poor code on a game you pay money for to test for ccp or, if you're not getting any issues, no need to install it.
Both options aren't mutually exclusive.

Dont mean any emotional harm by this ;) but when people pay for a service, they expect it to work.
The problem is, its not the first time this has happened and I'm pretty sure a lot of people would agree that the UI has always been buggy (One of the most buggiest UI's of a game i have ever used)
In my humble opinion, it gives the impression of "we don't care" and makes CCP look unprofessional, which can't be good for any business. Saying that it's good that CCP brought a fix out the next day isn't the point, with the amount of bugs that showed up after the patch indicated to me, at least, that there may be possible concerns with bug testing.
Just my two penny worth.

CCP, Why is this optional?
whynot just rollback the 1.1 patch and bake it a week or 2 more until it really works?
patching a patch that introduces about 50 regressions is just plain bad

I believe "optional" is code for "it may break more things but we are not sure."
"Rollback" is admitting.."we messed up bigtime." So it will never happen.

Quote: You can't always foresee bugs that will arise
But surely these bugs could have been found before release. I mean, all they'd have to do is login and play around for 15 minutes..I just wish they did some proper testing before releasing a patch. Several hours late for a patch that breaks things instead of fixing them, great job, no really, good going.

I see there's nothing about making the "Ships" and "Items" windows stop popping back to the top left corner. Impressive that CCP got a patch out the next day (even though most of these issues were already known about before 1.1 was released and should have already been fixed) but I still hope this can get fixed soon.

Seriously people, if you have issues with paying for a game that when an update comes out, then stop paying to play and move back to WOW or something like that. Running tests on a test server somtimes do not produce bugs that will appear on a live server, due to several factors. I could understand if CCP did nothign to fix it, but look they are already workign on it. If you think you can code a better game without any bugs then please feel free to go ahead and do it. Untill then tank CCP for the fun game your playing, and be patient. Just my 2 cents, and I don;t really care if you feel like bashing me for this post either.

Speculation: It most likely contains client-side changes only. If all the issues can be fixed without making server-side code changes, the patch would be optional.

I've never understood why this is so taboo. Why are companies so reluctant to admit fault on such trivial matters? More significantly, why are customers willing to settle for nothing less than perfection from them? Maybe I'm some crazy outlier, but I find it more comforting to hear "We made a mistake and are now doing our best to fix it," rather than "Nothing to see here. All is well. Carry on, citizen." Is being lied to really that much of a comfort to most people?
I guess what I'm really saying is, "F*** spin." "Rest well this night, for tomorrow you sail for the kingdom... of Daggerfall." -Uriel Septim VII |

Seriously people, stop telling people to go back to WOW. If all you can do is preach to the player base that are not happy with a patch then you should seriously consider shutting the f**k up.
[I dont think CCP appreciate you telling their paying customers to go elsewhere.]

Seriously I have not been able to logon for 2 days because I have to download bulk data that resets the client when it gets to 5/46 how about they fix that little problem for me so that i can then maybe logon and see what else is gone belly up.
I have been playing and paying for this game for over 4 years and i love it but when i can not even login to change my bloody skills then maybe the problem is not with my patience. |

I can fix that for you right now. Press escape and link the ships and items windows into the station window. You wont look back

I had this same problem a wile back, and believe it or not its not really an eve issue. Adjust your sound settings on your computer to a lesser setting i.e 5.1 surround to lets say stereo.

optional patch
Optional?!?!
:lolcp:
Open up a whole new can of worms, why don't you? I can see it now... and it's not pretty (*cough* invalid build *cough*). Has this "optional patch" thing ever been done before? Has anyone actually tested it?
Glad to see you're on top of the raft of problems introduced by the Tyrannis 1.1 patch, but tbh that patch should never have seen the light of day. At least the question of whether or not LOLCP does any QA testing at all has been finally answered beyond the shadow of a doubt. If I was an investor, I'd be mighty ****ed right about now. It's a travesty that something that bad could be foisted on your paying customers without any testing whatsoever.
Polish up those resumes, boys and girls, the writing on the wall is pretty clear. |

the Optional patch DOES NOT address stability!, at all, here is the optional patch notes:
Patch notes for Tyrannis 1.1 Optional Patch
To be deployed October 2, 2010
User Interface
* When opening the scanner the alert sound is no longer played. * Windows will now retain their correct size when you open and close them. * You can now view member hangars through the corporate hangar as intended. * Hiding passive modules in the HUD no longer hides all modules. * In the sovereignty dashboard only the first word in the location name was displayed. This has been fixed and the full name is shown correctly. * Resolved an issue where corporations who were part of an alliance had blue alliance stars against corporation members. The correct green star will show for corporation members. * If you moved a window half way off the screen it would bounce back into full view when you opened a new window. This has been fixed. * Certifications now show the level required for component skills. * Chat channels will no longer reset to the default positions every time the client is restarted. * Chat channel logs now show the channel name again as originally intended.
The BIGGEST problem IMHO with 1.1 is that it randomly crashes! This is huge, and really should be addressed with the optional fix, and if you cannot, then unfortunately, rollback is the only intelligent way to proceed.
I am an IT professional, with more then 15 years doing this sort of thing, and what is happening here is just plain wrong.
Rollback 1.1,
Prime Beta testing eve since 2002Ö
This.
Reworded patch-notes
UI * Some **** that worked fine before but then got shafted might work again (but might not) but we may have shafted something else while not fixing it. Please test it for us and pay us for the privilege so we can re-invest the money in something other than fixing l a g!

Edited by: Crunchmeister on 01/10/2010 21:03:18 How about fixing the issue where I can actually activate my modules?
How about letting me reload weapons in space rather than from the fitting window while docked only? Trying to reload my weapons in space (providing my modules actually activate) tells me I'm loading the wrong ammo type.
How about letting me fit modules to an empty ship rather than giving me the "no free slots - free up some slots first" error?
How about letting me see who's got negative standing in my local window?
How about letting me see my agressed flashy targets in my overview (yes, my settings are correct)?
I dunno, but I've got some major issues and it seems this "optional" patch seems to address only the minor annoyances. I'm basically stuck spinning ships in station on 3 accounts until the real bugs are addressed. Now THAT'S getting my $45/month worth!

Bets on what issues will crop up with this optional patch(*)? Clearly CCP can't be arsed to review their work for errors until their clients speak up in volume about their shoddy production values.
CCP employees must be drinking the bubbly now that they are about to release their optional fix and go back to planning their next vacation as well as strategizing how to outsource more of their QA testing to 3rd world countries for pennies.
After all, taking first class seats to tropical destinations isn't cheap! 
(*) - many if not most folks are experiencing several of the main bugs listed in the Tyrannis 1.1 issues thread. "Optional" isn't really.

This optional patch scares me. Based upon all logistics of this situation that I can imagine, morons created and failed to test a garbage patch, now those same morons have a fix for us overnight? Yeah, right. I'm going to let some other brave soul "test pilot" it before I download the optional patch.

Old Lessons, new dogs....
CCP learnt years ago: - Most people play at weekends. - Most problems are created and therefore can be fixed, given time. - Most patches have some unforseen issues, small or large, so patch earlier than later.
So, what has been forgotten here.. well, patches used to be Tuesday rather than Thursday and despite common sense, they didn't touch common code such as window snap locations, for example, without some long term testing (I have not seen any windows problems on Sisi - was I testing this change?).
I am not happy with this patch, more so than any other and perhaps after 7 years I have come to expect some service that my tolerance is deserving.

Originally by: Corozan Aspinall Confirming these rather mission critical bugs. Nearly got me dead in low sec today. Looking on the bright side .. its not really any different to playing EvE drunk. 
lol Indeed. But in my case, I was searching for a target in high sec that SHOULD have been flagged to me, but wasn't. I was locked and fired upon before I even knew who was doing what to me. I hit my scram when I finally found out who was trying to kill me and it wouldn't activate. Luckily my gun group did and I was able to kill him before he got me or got away.
And luckily, I managed to get him with the ammo I had in my gun. After the fight I tried to reload and got an error telling me that I couldn't load Fed Navy Antimatter S in my light neutron blaster II because it was the wrong ammo type. Only earlier, I tried to load some Scourge Fury into my heavy launcher II and got the same error.
I hope these bugs get resolved sooner rather than later.

Edited by: Othran on 01/10/2010 21:40:32 This sounds much like most other s/w companies' "recommended" updates.
ie - something that you shouldn't apply under ANY CIRCUMSTANCES unless you are affected by what the recommended update claims to fix.
Smacks of panic really - untested patch* followed by barely tested emergency "optional" patch. I'll pass.
As has been said so many times before, how about getting some QA who have a clue?
*its beyond belief that some of the UI changes were ever tested. Simple as - and if you say otherwise then you take us for fools.

Same here, to me it looks like the patch didn't effect everyone, hence an optional patch, for those of us actually experiencing issues.
You're missing some logistic problems there, dude.
Tyrannis PC 1.1 Tyrannis Mac 1.1 Tyrannis PC 1.1a Tyrannis Mac 1.1a
Now CCP has to deal with four versions of the client as opposed to two, when the next patch comes around. What will happen then? Will there be four Incursion-expansion files? Doubt that, so there is just nothing optional about this patch, because you'll have to install it sooner or later. Also I can't shrug off the urge to read the quality of "optional" as "it fixes these issues, but it's even more shoehorned and rushed through QA then the previous patch, so if you install it and get problems, it's your fault".

Originally by: Twiagon Old Lessons, new dogs....
CCP learnt years ago: - Most people play at weekends. - Most problems are created and therefore can be fixed, given time. - Most patches have some unforseen issues, small or large, so patch earlier than later.
So, what has been forgotten here.. well, patches used to be Tuesday rather than Thursday and despite common sense, they didn't touch common code such as window snap locations, for example, without some long term testing (I have not seen any windows problems on Sisi - was I testing this change?).
I am not happy with this patch, more so than any other and perhaps after 7 years I have come to expect some service that my tolerance is deserving.
QFT.
Patch releases on a Tuesday or Wednesday have a far better chance of being addressed that same week with good quality. This allows for a tight turn around on the patch(es) as well as keeps those executing the patch home and obtaining rest on the weekend.
As much as the Tyrannis 1.1 patch stinks, I want to see CCP personnel have the weekend off in order to be well-rested for the coming week of 'oh **** we really need to review our patch release processes and here is what we are going to do.'
Well-rested CCP employees give us paying clients a better chance of having a working game when the next patch comes around. CCP employees who are over-worked will continue to put out ****.
This assumes that CCP employees, their management team and their investors give two ****s about the quality of their product. Yeah, I know...

Ah my friend, one of the first lessons to learn about CCP patch notes is that they have become increasingly devoid of information over the past year.
In other words: We could read the updated patch notes until we are blue in the face, but CCP will still omit much of what they changed.

1, you think wow has 0 bugs when it comes to patches, cause i doubt it. 2, some of the bugs that have come about could have been fully detected on sisi, like corp mates showing up as alliance mates? doubt a hardware change would make that bug. 3, by saying "Untill then thank CCP for the fun game your playing", you assume that people, such as my self, havnt had enough of ccp's bull****, and have decided to leave.
Now obviously people arent leaving by their thousands, but just keep an eye on the quarterly economic thingy where it says how many new people have joined, then look at how many people over that time have been connected to eve, cause i'll bet 50m that it will average to the same, no matter how many new accounts have been made.
Also this isnt bashing you at all, its just with all the crap we, as paying customers, have had to swallow from ccp, i'm personally sick of it.

Think before you speak. 1.1 wiped out some of my notes and CCP is offering no way to restore them, only telling me that it happens sometimes. Very uncool. Paying customer loses data, company effectively says 'tough ****'. Wouldn't you be ****ed off?
Whether or not they came up with a patch the next day is utterly irrelevant. There were some blatant bugs that should have been caught BEFORE 1.1 was released. As a professional software development manager I should know.
It's not cool to talk down to others that are experiencing legit problems caused by a buggy new version of a product we're paying for.

Um, yeah, ok, professional game developer here in my past career for almost 9 years for big publishers everyone in here has heard of. And you know what? There's a history of buggy patches released and shoddy craftsmanship in them. Remember not too terribly long ago when the entire game was down for a day or two? Or a previous patch that screwed things up? And now this patch that deletes some customer data and makes the game unplayable for some that are paying for it? I'd say the venom is quite warranted, thanks.

I'm with the complaining guy. I get tired of people putting out PC games and add ons for games and expecting the players to do their play testing for them. You don't get this on consoles. It 's rubbish and there is no excuse.
Other online games play test on test servers to iron out all of this stuff before they deploy.
I'm just randomly crashing all the time - so I can't do anything risky at all and will now give up.
Don't defend poor servicer. If you want that, go and play shareware games where there is no contract of service.

A couple of things that should also be addressed:
POS Hangars, while viewed in the "ICON" view-mode, can sometimes lock up and become completely inaccessible. Switch your view mode to "LIST" or "DETAILS", and you should be able to move these items. Since no workaround has been published, I'll do it.
Stuck modules? Module lag? Auto-overheat?
Come on, CCP.
We pay to play this game, and in doing so pay the wages of each and every CCP Employee. This patch is an atrocity, and you know it.
I never thought I'd say this.. but..
Bring back Dominion 1.0

All the complaining just says ONE THING. They love to play EVE and when they can't for even a FEW days (regardless if you pay or not) means you are a complete EVE addict.
In some ways, CCP screwing up EVE entirely just to get you off the crack may actually be a GOOD thing for you.

Originally by: Ankbar Any downside to saying "no"? And I realize this is kinda 'front-page' news, but you really should post the same thing in the Tyr 1.1 issues and feedback threads.
There was a patch in the past that was suppose to do some fixes. Yet it ended up braking the client more. Some people had problems before they patched, others didn't. when it was patched the people who didn't have problems with their client, got problems with the patch.
I was one of them that complained about the patch when I installed it. at the Time I did not see any problems. I only ran into the bug once, yet it was easily avoidable. once I patched it, I had to reinstall eve. ---

Here's a question:
Does the corp diplo role apply to setting alliance standings as well?
For instance, can a diplo in the executor corp of an alliance set standings for the alliance as well as for the corp? Previously this could only be done by directors. This would allow junior diplomats to be able to set standings without having full wallet access or the ability to push butan, which is awesome (or terrible if you're an enemy spy/disgruntled employee). -- Killed me?

Originally by: Raxonika I'm with the complaining guy. I get tired of people putting out PC games and add ons for games and expecting the players to do their play testing for them. You don't get this on consoles. It 's rubbish and there is no excuse.
Let me explain, please. Now I am not defending anyone, I simply understand the complexity of such a game and furthermore the complexity of the PC World. I agree with you: you don't get such a large array of issues on consoles. But did you ask yourself why? Because all consoles are identical. You test on ONE console and fix all the bugs? You are sure that ALL consoles behave in the same way. This is completely UNtrue for PCs. PCs are modular. Your hardware differs from my hardware; your SOFTWARE differs from my software. A lot. It doesn't matter if we run the same operating system; for each piece of hardware in my PC, there's a driver running; you have different hardware, you will have different drivers. Also, don't forget the impact installed software can have on your machine. Think DLL Hell (or Dependency Hell if you want to be more generic); There's a gazillion and one things that might go wrong because you have some poorly written driver/resident app that messes up with the video hardware overlay or keyboard hooking for this and that shortcut; and in such a light, designing and maintaining a complex app such as EVE Online Client is like a dance in a storm of bullets. Some people might get hit; some lightly (sound issues), some heavily (client crashes on start). Want to check whether your machine is to blame? Install a test OS on a separate HDD, test it thoroughly for stability (all drivers, all basic software), don't put anything else on it, save an image of that HDD as back-up, install the client, test for issues and whenever there's a patch, restore the image from back-up, install the new version, test it. THAT is some basic testing. CCP can't test everything for every hardware+software combination of every PC out there. I met this guy a few years ago, he was all in arms about some forgotten game which was crashing on his machine constantly, so he asked my help in checking out what the problem was. Turned out that half of the games he owned did crash/error out/exhibit issues of some sort, and of course he blamed the game makers for all the problems. However, he had no antivirus. I'll let you guess what happened when I checked his machine for malware/viruses. Of course SOME of the issues people encounter are indeed solely the game's fault. It'+s a COMPLEX game however, and I am always amazed by its sheer complexity. It's no easy feat to flawlessly patch such a monster. Imagine you have a giant castle made of playing cards, and want to add a tower to it. There's a high chance things are going to get nasty, even if you take all the precautions. And for the guy asking for a rollback, I will make a rather stupid analogy. Let's assume you make soup and put too much salt in it. There are angry customers waiting for the damn soup. You can't just throw it away and make another, they will bludgeon you to death. You can't "undo" the salt. It happens. So all you can do is try and fix it. It may not please all tastes, but that's a risk you are willing to take. And you patch it, then patch the patch and so on. A more EVE-like example is: Let's assume CCP introduces the Noctis and it exhibits a really ugly bug (hull is -1 and it blows upon undocking). Hours after it's launched, reports start pouring in. The obvious thing would be to rollback until issue is fixed. But how about all those people who traded BPOs of that ship, who contracted ships to others and so on? Do you, um, I don't know, erase all the contracts? Lose all the learned skillpoints? I wouldn't say you would. 61 characters left, gotta stop :) ...gis sdrawkcaB |

Edited by: WisdomPanda on 02/10/2010 00:51:24 If anyone thinks they can do better - apply for a job at CCP and step up or shut up. 
EvE is a unique beast in the MMO scene from a dev stand point, the only thing that really comes close would be a large distributed database network (as opposed to single server clusters), however those networks aren't feature driven - people don't expect you to add bling to your DB's, they just expect it to work. Not so with an MMO. So I implore the use of common sense; Not all experiences you "IT Professionals" (no insult implied, it' just rather vague for most people) have can carry over, nor can you really have a clue as to the internal workings. We can all only take educated guesses.
In before "DID HE SAY COMMON SENSE?!";

Edit: The reason you don't get as many on consoles (They still have MANY bugs/patches on console games. FYI.) is simply because it is a single unified platform, where it IS possible to fully lab test something with a good degree off accuracy. When you set up a mirror image of TQ in your basement, let CCP know, 'mmmkay?

You also seem to be forgetting 1 thing, these bugs have nothing to do with a specific platform or setup, these bugs are there no matter what you are running, pc, mac or linux.
So for me, your argument about we should expect bugs on pc games is flawed.
I will agree how ever that it is easier to bug hunt on consoles, as a day 1 360 is basically the same as a new one.
Also as a troll, if you did set up a mirrow image of tq in your basement, contacting ccp is one of the last things i would do, i dont like being sued ;)

Considering that I play almost everyday for a few hours, and that I only pay 50 cents to play per day, I'm pretty happy with the game. I'm old enough to remember the 90s where some online games charged by the hour, and you had to pay your isp by the hour and sometimes you had to pay the phone company by the minute for the long distance call.
But since everyone else is whining, I'll join in.
1. My corp chat window disappears and I can't get it back without relogging. 2. Some mods won't activate,(tractor beams) while some won't deactivate (after burners) 3. I see double in overview, and everything in the last 2 systems I warped through stay in the overview. Given that I can't turn some things on or turn others off, the game for me is unplayable until the new patch is released. Good luck with that CCP.

Seems some are having problems with the overview now. I personally cant launch drones , the drone overview continues to default back to your set overview and will not allow the deployment of drones, every time you move the mouse to the drone launch it defaults back to original overview. Also at gates every time you depress your talk key while in eve chat the overviews flip back to original instead of select. I hope they address this soon, if you get killed as a result of an inability to destroy frigates that are warp scamming you while in an heavy amar mission then am i going to get , (oh sorry we couldn't find any problems tough luck?) or trying to jump a gate and the overview is not working properly and your in low sec? What then? Is anyone experiencing these issues?

Originally by: Dy Morphin I still think your ALL on crack...and CCP has gone corporate and can't even test properly. The game is getting so complex with Dust 514 and PI and Incarna and and and and... I worry it is getting too complex. (oh and the LAG problem )
I wish CCP would understand that a massive test department is just as important as everything else.
Umm, no, Eve has always been a throw it out there and see what breaks production. This behavior hasn't changed from day one.

Originally by: CCP Navigator Following downtime you will see a pop up box once the client is launched informing you that a patch is available and if you want to install. If you click 'Yes' then the patch will be applied and then you can log into Tranquility. If you choose 'No' you will log in to Tranquility directly but you will none of the fixes applied. If you clicked 'No' in error you can still apply the patch by going to the ESC menu, General Settings and apply the patch from the 'Install' button there.
This will be interesting to see if offline patching works ...

Sorry to all those that say we shouldn't whine, but when something as basic as the UI goes wrong, to the extent that you have window problems, then as far as I'm concerned, that is extremely shoddy.
I mean, for gods sake, the UI is something that everyone who plays EvE has to use and look at..... if anything, it should be the one thing that has to be spot on, no excuses.
If you paid for faulty goods, you'd complain to the shop you bought it from, and if they continued to offer faulty goods, you simply wouldn't shop there any more. In the country that i live in, there is a small piece of retail law, that says that the goods which are for sale must be fit for the purpose they are sold for.... the Eve UI is supposed to let you play the game, evidently, a lot of people cant, there for it is unfit for purpose.
I pay for this game, i expect it to work!!

Originally by: CCP Navigator An optional patch will be deployed during downtime on Saturday, October 2 which will fix several issues reported to us following the release of Tyrannis 1.1. While the patch is optional, we would encourage everyone to apply the update to ensure your gameplay is improved over the weekend. The optional patch will be included in a future client update. A full list of updated patch notes can be found here.
Following downtime you will see a pop up box once the client is launched informing you that a patch is available and if you want to install. If you click 'Yes' then the patch will be applied and then you can log into Tranquility. If you choose 'No' you will log in to Tranquility directly but you will none of the fixes applied. If you clicked 'No' in error you can still apply the patch by going to the ESC menu, General Settings and apply the patch from the 'Install' button there.
Allegedly, that is it might do that and it might download a POS corrupt file ask you to repair it then fail to do so and never try to download it again or do anything useful other than waste your time, in which case you'll want to download it manually and have a few beers. -------------------------------------------------------------- Fanboys would make great cult members. |

Hi, after Tyrannis 1.1 patch, when we logged in most corp members seeing eachother in "Corp chat" Neutral or high standing emblem, after this we asked to our allies and friends to check this, they confirm that they are having same problem. This is at chat lists not in overview. At space everything is in proper. i hope they fixed it.

Games will have flaws. Period. There is not a game out there that is perfect, much less a MMO. I realize there may be big problems, but seriously just state your problems. Whining and moaning have never fixed a game. Anyone expecting instant fixes should also know better. If they could make the game work perfectly they would, but it is complex and not everything is as simple to fix as you wish or think.

Come on guys give them a break, bugs happen. There is a certain balance between bug testing, cost, and time. If things break you do your best to fix it. Thats just the way this industry works.
Regarding Whinging vs Flaming: Saying CCP is full of terrible programmers and technicians is just ******ed. They've developed a cutting edge piece of software and have made technological history with this game. On the other hand saying that you want some bug fixed has a constructive effect as these complaints form the chorus that is the voice of CCP's customer base and have an effect on future development. So stop flaming CCP and just state your concerns like adults and respect one another for crying out loud.

Seeing that many of the bugs of this patch were already known and reported over on SiSi, I think it's easy to disagree with that opinion. This is happening time and again and either they have to give more time for QA, their bug-traking system needs a serious rethought or those, who push such silly decissions before thinking about it, should get off their chair and a boot to the ass.

Sorry can't see any fix about the language input issue which will double what you just entered.
For example a "屌, ㅓㅑ ", will be "屌屌, , ㅓㅓㅑㅑ " after the 1.1 patch. If I disable the EVE IME the then I can't see any characters to choose.
I have to say it is somewhat serious because chating is one of the most improtant gameplay for some ppl include me.

Then don't play the game. Why don't you try creating a game that is bug free. This is something I do not say lightly but... IT IS IMPOSSIBLE. I'm sorry but you are a complete idiot if you think you are going to code a perfect game. If you can manage it thought, expect my $15 a month.
If you ever create a game and state for a fact that it is and always will be bug free and cannot deliver? Well now... You'll know why I called you an idiot.

Do you guys not think before posting? THIS IS A GAME THAT CHANGES THOROUGHLY EVERY 6 MONTHS! If this was a pharmaceutical business, you wouldn't be a customer unless you are a hard core drug addict that didn't care what he was injecting. This game is the most complex game EVER created. If CCP was a normal "safe" game production company, this game would totally suck. This game lives on the bleeding edge. If you can't handle that then go play a simpleton game like WoW. If you want features, twice a year expansions (to further the complexity and awesomeness), enormous fleet battles, and friends you will know for years since no one ever actually ever quits this game, then stop your damn complaining. You guys sound like a bunch of adolescent girls with blood in their pants for the first time. I'm well aware of the fact this game has a learning curve more similar to a brick wall and that's why I like it. I hate simple games. If this was a simple game... with the CCP staff, then hell yea, **** would get fixed before you knew it was broke. Unfortunately, you decided to pick the pioneer of game development, which in turn requires immense efficiency the likes of which will never be born.
Be happy they are so quick to address common issues.

Rollback of tyrannis 1.1 seems to be the ONLY logical option. ROLLBACK the darn thing, and in future try to be more carefull, as in test updates more carefully, before you go live with a new patch.
The only thing you do now is: - you waste your time, but also the time of your consumers aka the players. - you hurt your name by messing up so much with all those unwanted patches, downtimes, introducing of so many new bugs before you fixed the old ones.

I just wanna my Coolant and Mechanical Parts back. I've had about 5-10mil isk worth product on a planet (all long night production, only processors on that planet), in spaceport. But when I've tried to export, it said I have none. And disappeared them all after few tries. But I had some supply for producing them left, so I should at least have SOME, right? Even if numbers I was seeing was wrong, I could not end up with NOTHING after all night! For my young character 5-10mil do is a big issue - 1/3 of the most expensive ship I've ever lost! And there's no word about this in optional patch notes.

Really Efraya, you seem to be missing the point entirely.
EVE online is a complex world with lots of systems involved. Though, complex systems dont have to be complex to handle or to manage. Its all about the way HOW you manage those systems that makes it a succes or a general failure.
Releasing unthoughtfull or untested patches on a live server is asking for problems, problems which we customers are confronted with. With ingame unplayability, losses or other kinds of unsatisfying events.
Now CCP could decide to do things a little diffent. Just for example, listing all bigs known till today, work upon that instead of introducing new features. Incase bug fixes make it to a new patch. Apply the patch in a test environment and test intensively before applying it in a live environment.
As you have a software developping carreer you yourselve must see some truth in this. Ofcourse there are people who are always whining. I'm not pointing to those. But a fair amount of people just see that the way CCP operates isn't functioning anymore, tyrranis or dominion is a mere prove of that. Lately releasing new content has become more important then the reliability and gameplay of the game itself, while that should be the core of the game and the content just a layer around or above it.
As I am a CEO of a corporation myself, i just see the way CCP runs things lately is atleast to be called "a little sloppy".
Thanks for reading this.

Edited by: Whitehound on 02/10/2010 09:52:42 While I do agree with CCP that there are bugs that are hard to catch, do I also agree that CCP are not doing their job right. The excuse of not being able to test it all is coming a bit too often. In cases where the bugs jump right into one's face as with 1.1, and into the faces of many, is this excuse turning more into an open resignation of the volume of bugs, which needs to be fixed with every release.
At the root seems to stand some of CCP's bosses, who must have said that it is making them more money to bring new features rather than fixing old ones. I am surprised to see someone at this level to be talking about making money, when they should be making games. It is not wrong to make money, but it is superficial to think this way and shows a lack of insight.
If anyone at CCP wants to be a money maker then they should have started a bank and not a games company. Only the directors of banks think about making money. Directors of game companies still have to think of making games, and it is not like CCP will fade away tomorrow, because of running out of cash and customers!
So, please, give us some love by giving the game some love and put more effort into fixing bugs. --

Just a suggestion for people with enough space, make a backup of your current Eve folder(s) before applying the æOptionalÆ patch to the current game then if things go æBase over ApexÆ you can copy the backup back and try again.
I always do this before a patch as a æJust in CaseÆ measure.

I didn't see anywhere in the patch notes that they fixed the issue with the market window showing the correct price. Guess that slipped their mind, an of course they will sit on their hands about fixing the issues it is causing. Then again, I don't expect CCP to care anyway, I wouldn't be half surprised if they weren't behind half the scamming that goes on, specially seeing how they find it amusing.
There is a reason this game isn't has popular as it could be, that little kids game WoW has been out for a little less time, yet has done far better with the numbers then EvE. Sad ...

Other established MMOs have caused far less grief after patches than Eve has, but that is not the reason Eve has not been as successful as WoW. It's because Eve does not pander to casuals, which is a Good ThingÖ for those of use who rise to a challenge. Still, it doesn't help Eve when I start to dread patch days more than I ever did with any other well established MMO.
If another space combat + trading sandbox MMO came out tomorrow that was even nearly as good as Eve, yet less buggy, I'd jump at it. CCP might want to keep in mind they won't always be the only show in town. They've lost a great deal of my goodwill since I signed up, and they show little sign of reversing that trend  -- Frog blast the vent core! |

@CCP: The last 2 Years it looks more and more like the Team got's changed. How else it could be that your Crew is making the same mistakes every time?
I'll think CCP has taken the fired Blizzard Crew (also ~2 Years ago). Now they "take-down" EVE like Blizzard Games.
Best Ways to crash/destroy a perfect Game:
1) Patch, Patch, Patch... Patch again! 2) Make all "Noob"-able, easy.... more easy.... more and more easy.... 3) Ignore Customers and just **** on their stolen Gametime 4) Dont give "useful" Informations about Downtimes and Problems 5) Smoking & Drinks helps to ignore all the Problems happens 6) Just let's cut Contents and Features they want works anymore 7) At least just say: The Customer Computer is wrong, not our Game! 8) Continue with ignoring Customer Problems 9) Downgrading the Server 10) Patch, Patch, Patch... Patch again! 12) Continue with running the Game-Service with minimal Support 13) Stop "continue" of the Game, < end of supported time > 14) Bring out a new Game and start Money-Catching again 15) > Restart with destroying a good new Game or bringing out new Versions of the old Game (like: Diablo 1, Diablo 2-, Diablo 2 Lord of Destructions, Diablo 3...)

I'll think CCP has taken the fired Blizzard Crew (also ~2 Years ago). Now they "take-down" EVE like Blizzard Games.
Best Ways to crash/destroy a perfect Game:
1) Patch, Patch, Patch... Patch again! 2) Make all "Noob"-able, easy.... more easy.... more and more easy.... 3) Ignore Customers and just **** on their stolen Gametime 4) Dont give "useful" Informations about Downtimes and Problems 5) Smoking & Drinks helps to ignore all the Problems happens 6) Just let's cut Contents and Features they want works anymore 7) At least just say: The Customer Computer is wrong, not our Game! 8) Continue with ignoring Customer Problems 9) Downgrading the Server 10) Patch, Patch, Patch... Patch again! 12) Continue with running the Game-Service with minimal Support 13) Stop "continue" of the Game, < end of supported time > 14) Bring out a new Game and start Money-Catching again 15) > Restart with destroying a good new Game or bringing out new Versions of the old Game (like: Diablo 1, Diablo 2-, Diablo 2 Lord of Destructions, Diablo 3...)
---- ugha, CCP you are on the best way to destroy :)
Sounds like this game is just pure frustration and waste of time. My hint: cancel subscription, terminate account, leave.
But I have more the impression that we have here a lot of smart-asses eventually not able to sort their own life out but knowing how perfect game coding, developing, designing etc. has to work in reality.
Just shut up or show us how to do it better and right. Now waiting for the ultimative space MMORPG. I can't wait to play it soon(TM).

Yes problems arose with yesterday's patch, they came up with a fix the next day. You can't always foresee bugs that will arise, but its not like CCP sat on their laurels when things went south.
Anyway whining = annoying (yes, I'm prepared emotionally to be quoted and whined at)
Edit: This is of course not directed at everyone in this post
Dont mean any emotional harm by this ;) but when people pay for a service, they expect it to work.
The problem is, its not the first time this has happened and I'm pretty sure a lot of people would agree that the UI has always been buggy (One of the most buggiest UI's of a game i have ever used)
In my humble opinion, it gives the impression of "we don't care" and makes CCP look unprofessional, which can't be good for any business. Saying that it's good that CCP brought a fix out the next day isn't the point, with the amount of bugs that showed up after the patch indicated to me, at least, that there may be possible concerns with bug testing.
Just my two penny worth.
Peace my friend :)

I never though i am going to say this but i am thinking more to quit a game I like to play but which seems to be harder and harder to play. why? this is why?
-I learned till now that any new patch minor or big comes lately with more bugs then fixes, you manage to get arround the previous bugs and get used to them and you get a new chalenge in the next patch. -When I see patch anounced to be deployed, I personally do not plan to play eve that day, usually takes more then 6h to deploy...and make sure i have a very long skill in training. 3-4 days atleast - the rest was pointed out in previous post by others.
Are a lot of testing methods, i still do not get it why a patch is pushed so fast on the frontline because how i see it is all about rush and affecting me and others.
Maybe all patches should be optional first....

Myself is Programmer & Delevoper for a Gaming Company as well. But never had Problems like CCP over 13 Years. And their are over 10 Games over our Company, and not only 1!
But true, CCP is not as big as some Customers think. They are like at the beginning of Blizzard's Crew. But, ..., your poor "My hint: cancel subscription, terminate account, leave." hint is more Nooby than any other Content in this Thread.
I just said whats the best way to destroy a "good" Game. What says this for you? I like the Game over many Years. But i dont like what CCP does with it since the last 2 Years... Yout take the Hint for you flaming Buddy.

Optional just means if anything fu-cks up in this NEW patch to patch the Patch
then ccp isn't to blame whatsoever it's your fault you downloaded and installed it was YOUR choice to download this optional patch but thats where was of you will argue and your defence will be
"but the old patch made things almost unplayable so we had no choice into patching with there shiny new patch"
this patch you people must understand is made by the same software that made this old patch that now have to patch AGAIN CCP SISI is for a reason it's been said that most of these bugs was reported to you in the SISI version why Didn't you do anything then and avoided this whole thing???
im glad a fix is coming out but really in MHO this is just a patch with a whole new bunch of crazy exciting bugs
or they listened to the SISI reports and made this patch now to patch the patch but what im thinking is why didn't you put the patch in along with the Other patch at the same time and nobody would of been the wiser

I was not thinking your a native english speaker, and frankly I couldn't care less if you were or not. Also I am not whining about anything, so, maybe get a walk in fresh air orso so you can see and think straight.
Programming and software development isnt "Easy" nor is it "Difficult". It is what it is. However the whole point of my post was not that it was Easy or Difficult, it was about the way CCP handles things. Its the HOW things are done what matters. Thats all I am saying.
You can solve complex problems in a rather easy way, but you can also solve easy problems in a dramatic difficult way. Its the HOW that matters.

They are not Singleplay, massive Online Software & Browser Games. To advertising for them in here would be not good, so just search a little on Google to find some simular Engines & Games working better.
And i never sayd that the "Content" and "Idea" of EVE is bad. I just said that the handling of the "Patch"-Ways is just poor and "oldstyle". There are some better "stable" Ways i postet 2 Days ago on the other Patch Thread as well.
And yeh you said i should show it better way. Then tell CCP to take me to them, i'm free for new Jobs ;)

Originally by: CCP Navigator An optional patch will be deployed during downtime on Saturday, October 2 which will fix several issues reported to us following the release of Tyrannis 1.1. While the patch is optional, we would encourage everyone to apply the update to ensure your gameplay is improved over the weekend. The optional patch will be included in a future client update. A full list of updated patch notes can be found here.
Following downtime you will see a pop up box once the client is launched informing you that a patch is available and if you want to install. If you click 'Yes' then the patch will be applied and then you can log into Tranquility. If you choose 'No' you will log in to Tranquility directly but you will none of the fixes applied. If you clicked 'No' in error you can still apply the patch by going to the ESC menu, General Settings and apply the patch from the 'Install' button there.
"you will none of the fixes applied"

Thing is: CCP is a company who is doing crap atm. And they not explaining it to their customers or thinking to do better.
@CCP (i didn`t need a unqualified comment from another customer):
Ur better starting of doing ur work and code a new UI from the start and test it properly. I have never seen a game wich was more complicated to do pretty easy things like in eve. And not reacting on customers comments makes it even more worse. Ur loosing my trust. And u shall know if u don`t get it, there will be another corporation who will. Ur not unique. U just had a good idea. U better go on and think about what ur doing cause if not iam not willing to swallow ur cum.

LOL i like how they have 12+ testers on line in Eve they normally have only 4 people on before realesing patches
this is progress by the CCP team
more testers means more problems to find and more problems found means less work we have to do trying to get you to fix them
this is a game we come here to relax grab a couple of beer from the fridge and just veggie out after a shi-t day at work
im at work now hence why im typing so much if i type alot my boss thinks im doing work

Hm,
readng thru this thread ... and other patch-threads also I am asking me a important question.
Are this "dont complain about ... why are you whinning"-writers all CCP-Alts? If not the implication would be very bad.
In this case the content industry has bred a generation of dumb customers buying every crab even if the idea is the 1000th time rewarmed willingly giving up there legal rights. I am also asking me where this will end. Customers just buying CD/DVD/Game without asking and throwing it away after one day playing buying it the next day another time without asking doing everything as long as there are pictures to watch.

but the new ones should better keep their mind. ccp is a great "chaos" company giving their best. the only thing, they should stop drinking on patch-days ^^

Originally by: Selling Slave I didn't see anywhere in the patch notes that they fixed the issue with the market window showing the correct price. Guess that slipped their mind, an of course they will sit on their hands about fixing the issues it is causing. Then again, I don't expect CCP to care anyway, I wouldn't be half surprised if they weren't behind half the scamming that goes on, specially seeing how they find it amusing.
There is a reason this game isn't has popular as it could be, that little kids game WoW has been out for a little less time, yet has done far better with the numbers then EvE. Sad ...
i like this game it's got enough people in it too many p[eople and well it just turns into WoW where they keep making things easier and easier and if i recall alot of people have elft WoW beacuse the new expansion is ****e

Originally by: Demitrios You also seem to be forgetting 1 thing, these bugs have nothing to do with a specific platform or setup, these bugs are there no matter what you are running, pc, mac or linux.
Originally by: 1.1 Patch Notes Mac
Resolved a crash issue related to rapidly switching between planets in planetary mode. The mailer cache error preventing EVE mail working in the Mac client will no longer happen. Fixed an issue with font rendering in the in-game browser. Some graphics glitches on ATI cards have been fixed, notably the effects when the shader setting is set to high and the rendering of ship afterburners.
Yeah, cross platform has nothing to do with it. The fixes they've released for specific video cards are also no indication that different hardware can effect the game. Right on.
Originally by: Demitrios So for me, your argument about we should expect bugs on pc games is flawed.
The problem is when you find a bug on the PC platform, and you're also developing for other platforms, a fix is never as easy as just doing the obvious. Everything has a knock on effect, making simple bugs more annoying to quash. A unified platform is FAR easier to bug test on, not just "a little" as some have implied.
As a side note; PC's are more prone to bugs, if you don't want to accept it, then don't - it doesn't rock my world. But for a fun exercise, count how many different component setups you can have in your PC to run EvE. It isn't the root of all evil, but it's something we have to live with for being modular - some times some people get screwed when others don't. For example, I've only ever crashed out 1-2 times tops, I have far more trouble with my ISP than CCP. Of course, others have had endless crash issues, so it just goes to prove the point.
The reason bugs make it through to TQ, however, is probably quite simple; Deadlines. You get a list of bugs from QA and Sisi, they get sorted by category (minor, normal, major, critical) and you work from Critical to Minor. From a deadline standpoint, only a Critical/Major bug would cause a delay, the others are considered "acceptable" to hand off to the maintenance team. Most software groups/companies do this, what only really differs is the complexity of the project and the willingness to mark more/less bugs as critical/major.
There is also the other issue that has been highlighted many times in dev blogs over the last month; The cause for certain bugs takes a lot of specific testing to find the exact spot it's falling over. Once you have that spot, you need to reproduce, refactor, repeat. When your project can take an hour just to compile and certain resources aren't available on demand (aka, player testing) it doesn't become a fast process.
Originally by: Demitrios Also as a troll, if you did set up a mirrow image of tq in your basement, contacting ccp is one of the last things i would do, i dont like being sued ;)
The point being, Sisi is not TQ. Unless you're willing to fork out for a full scale test system, it will never be. You also would not be sued for setting up a hardware mirror, I apologise for not being specific. :)
We all want the same thing in the end; EvE to work so we can kill each other in game. (Or to help keep the roid population under control, if you're that way inclined.) ----- Cheesecake, Natures ultimate weapon. |

I just want to say this to all ppl there who say I shouldn't care I'm losing ISK due to faulty patch: send me 10-20mil, that will even it out. If you think that's not noteworthy amount, prove it ;)
If you say I shouldn't care I can't use game time I paid for, contract me PLEX for free (or send ~350mil isk as that's it's price now afair). That way you'll have my promise I'll ignore 30 days of unplayable / buggy state per PLEX ;) When it's my money, I have right to expect things to, well... work.

To summarize all the aforegoing posts...
It all boils down to this...Consumer Rights! If you PAY for something, whether it is a vehicle, a household item OR time on an official game online...YOU have the RIGHT to have it in PERFECT WORKING ORDER! If you are playing Lineage or WoW on a private server for free, then you do not have this right and need to accept all the bugs that go with it, but when you PAY you have the right to it working 100%.
This is WHY people moan! Many people do not have lots of money to waste and work hard for what they have...so when you consider the amount of money game developers make, it is NOT too much to expect that they work hard and deliver something that works perfectly! So... all of you who complain about the complainers...please think twice! It is their RIGHT to complain...like it or not!

Edited by: Jane Griffin on 02/10/2010 12:21:22 Auto patching worked fine for me.
Windows still open in default places, pinning windows still results in un-stacking. Convo windows never stay were i put them. Exactly like i was yesterday.
I havent undocked so i expect that the only thing that works now is the correct colour stars for corpies. Though i wouldnt be surprised if that wasnt fixed either...
Not unplayable, but im not playing eve until you fix these pathetic tedious glitches.

Originally by: WisdomPanda Yeah, cross platform has nothing to do with it. The fixes they've released for specific video cards are also no indication that different hardware can effect the game. Right on.
You'll also notice that the bugs that occurred came from an all-platform change, and affected all clients equally. So no, platform wasn't a factor. In fact, the platform-specific fixed worked perfectly.
àoh, and, CCP only develops for one platform: Windows, which is then wrapped to go into OSX. The wrapping is largely handled elsewhere.

No change for me today. If you unpin your windows they will stack ok and even retain their position 60% of the time. But stacking presents its own issues.

I think CCP needs to adjust their bug priorities, perhaps? UI bugs are high-profile- they need fixing just as much as 'zoom issues' ...
"The backend of the EVE User Interface has been refactored to allow for faster development and ease of programming. Because of this some UI settings, such as stacked windows, may not be preserved after the patching process."
I realize now this means there will be UI issues, but if this kind of undertaking must be made to make the game's UI more efficient down the line, why not just wait until it's essentially ready before deployment? Make sure it is with rigorous testing, and if there are failures, back off and keep it off the live server until major testing can't find anything obvious.
One minor annoyance I have is how default and snap-to column widths are off, particularly in financial windows like the Market. Had to double-click on the right width-adjuster to see at least the full value of ISK on items, and even then it was cutting off part of the 'ISK' ... Also, my window for 'loot cans' and similar floating containers has reset, but this, at least, I expect based on the patch notes. Automatically-resizing column widths on appropriate windows working inadequately, and window snap-to indicators no longer existing for certain windows are not expected and rather annoying to deal with, and most certainly obvious enough.
To add to some of the commentary: at least CCP isn't Blizzard who charge for the service of using their servers AND every expansion. ---- "Sounds like a bad case of pikal envy, if you ask me."
Chief Engineering Officer - got the tools to fix your problems.

The fixes to restore the UI need to be developed, and the server needs to be taken down as soon as they are ready to be implemented rather than waiting for downtime.

Originally by: Alejan Gerakh I realize now this means there will be UI issues, but if this kind of undertaking must be made to make the game's UI more efficient down the line, why not just wait until it's essentially ready before deployment? Make sure it is with rigorous testing, and if there are failures, back off and keep it off the live server until major testing can't find anything obvious.
Hm ... what makes you think that it's not more efficient already ?
I am asking "efficient" not "bug-free"/"flawless" ...
BM
Point taken, then. Though I will say I seem to have the least of issues if all I'm running into are a few of the window snap-to indicators missing and column issues in the Market and such, from the looks of the rest of this thread.
As usual, though, CCP makes a stumble while progressing forward. I look forward to when it works as intended. ---- "Sounds like a bad case of pikal envy, if you ask me."

One of the more important aspects of my game play is to stay alive (its a lot easier that way and you save huge ammounts of ISK) intel chat flipping to other chat pages, increased lag when leaving stations and jumping so you can find yourself ganked and podded when you eventually get there is not my idea of being able to play

Now you are getting nearly as tedious as window tabs switching by themselves.
All im saying is that if the fix is forthcoming, i think it will be worth it for everyone nerves to get in done sooner rather than later.
If you want to wait for tomorrows downtime or who knows when, in your words, thats fine. Instead of attacking other peoples posts why not make your own saying something like;
'Hi CCP, please fix it maybe tomorrow or who knows when' and you will have accomplished everything you seem to be trying to say...

Perfect example of client side vs server side issues. Window jumping around like rabbits, not sticking into place ... client side. Lag and that resulting in ganks ... could be both, client or cluster.
While I do not agree about all the window fuzz ... I have not noticed more lag when jumping/undocking but that might be situational and if you have it ... worth letting CCP know so they can do something about it.

I think there is an option to reset windows to default positions somewhere ... hold on.
Settings - Reset Settings - press "Reset windows to default positions." Or rather the button to the right of it.
That will reset ALL your windows also, but should take care of an overly inflated Overview.

Overview issues still occur from time to time! Wreck's Cargo windows are still reset every god damn time to default position. Hell it can't be that hard to fix.. Moving items is annoying since the item icon totaly overlaps the cursor.

Basically, no changes were made to UI... Windows keeps unstacking and jumping around, moreover, when you stack windows in one place, it's likely they get stacked all in some other place, i just had this case when my cargohold was partially overlapping chat frames, stacked other ship's cargohold with forst one... tried to, and they all got merged to the chat instead. -- Thanks CCP for cu |

Well, were not all drunks who wouldnt know if eve was fixed or not, or troll people on issues they know nothing about like the original patching problems that have prevented many from playing at all.
I think the vast majority would welcome an emergency DT as soon as a fix to restore normal UI can be created.

If the main coders are working on other projects and this update/patch/botch call it what you will, has been done by noobs/rookies/the ones not trusted to work on the 'big' projects, then who knows what damage has been caused.
It still boils down to the fact that less than 1 hours testing would have picked up some of these problems. Suffice to say that they either did no testing, or said stuff it and still deployed the original patch knowing it was bugged.

Sure, I'd welcome an emergency downtime if a 100% fixed UI would be published. Since I do not see that happening anytime soon, the UI working so your "vast majority" would be happy, I go with patches during the daily downtime for now, that attempt ( within a 2 day timeframe ) to fix what your "vast majority" has discovered not working.
I apply logic and patience.
Sadly ... you will need to get to know EVE a lot better to understand since these are still your first few days in EVE. Play a few years :) first.

hello
Installed the patch, seems some issues I have are resolved (the wide chat screen stays small) but window swapping problem is still there, unable to resize overview window tp smaller size, survey scan window stacked on overview window swaps from survey to overview window the moment I target a rock, I have 3 accounts only 2 are showable in dropdown menu at login (I was able to see them all before patch).
it is easy to say to stop paying and move back to wow or any other game but what whould happen if everyone stopped paying and moved to another game, this game would die like a few other good games. try to resolve the issues and not push the people away.

LOL, this is a disposable scout alt. In all honesty didnt realise it was gonna get posting priorities until i posted...
As for the patch, im glad that you finally agree with me that you would welcome a DT to fix the UI. Since the problems people are reporting are minor and accumulate to the client not writing to local configuration files to remember window locations i am more optimistic of the UI being restored to its former in-glory.
You justify your trolling by explaining your cynicism, while i recognise that it is nothing more than contrariness to assert some kind of warped superiority...
Anyway, im glad that you finally came around to the main point of DT if a fix is forthcoming, though i doubt this minor episode will stop you wasting other peoples time in the not too distant future.

Here's another way to get stacked windows that are normally closed to reposition.
Open one window in the stack, then close it, then repeat, then repeat again. Third time opening that window resets its position. - I blame stompy for any confusion I might have caused. |

My vote is DONT download the patch... Maybe if the white overcoats up there see that half the players didnt download their beloved update, they'll recognize that some of their customers are sick and tired of this apparent lack of interest...
CCP's gonna continue to lose players with this '2 steps forward, 1 step back' approach to every update (lag anyone?). I know im coming across as a hater, but i think that i reflect everyone's opinion when i say that i wanna see the Tribune start to publish stories of how "CCP FIXES EVE, FANBASE ORGASMIC!"

Oddly enough, the complaints about chat windows/tabs don't seem to be affecting me, now that I've looked into it (I can keep my intel channel visible between transitions just fine)... I wonder if a full reinstall and such would help those who are having issues? Or would that make it worse? What about the cache clearing some have also mentioned?
The reinstall only comes to my mind since there seems to be disparity among clients that I, at least, could not reconcile unless there's some sort of mismatching code from one person's botched patch. One of the various reasons they introduced the repair tool, actually. Now, of course, all of this may not do any good at all, but still, I haven't seen any of those complaining mentioning steps they have taken to try and fix it on their end, so I can only suggest ideas that come to mind. ---- "Sounds like a bad case of pikal envy, if you ask me."

Originally by: Feilamya Edited by: Feilamya on 02/10/2010 13:56:05 Don't waste time installing the patch, it doesn't fix anything.
I disagree, I can now see and drop items into my corp member's hangers, that alone is a good start, my corpmates now have the green star as they should instead of the blue one, I now only see one instance of a stargate, station or planet listing in my overview, and so far my window sizes and placement seems to be holding.
There's more, but no need to list them all is there?
Without a doubt, there are still huge problems remaining, but I am still appreciative of at least these minor fixes.

Yes problems arose with yesterday's patch, they came up with a fix the next day. You can't always foresee bugs that will arise, but its not like CCP sat on their laurels when things went south.
Anyway whining = annoying (yes, I'm prepared emotionally to be quoted and whined at)
Edit: This is of course not directed at everyone in this post
Dont mean any emotional harm by this ;) but when people pay for a service, they expect it to work.
The problem is, its not the first time this has happened and I'm pretty sure a lot of people would agree that the UI has always been buggy (One of the most buggiest UI's of a game i have ever used)
In my humble opinion, it gives the impression of "we don't care" and makes CCP look unprofessional, which can't be good for any business. Saying that it's good that CCP brought a fix out the next day isn't the point, with the amount of bugs that showed up after the patch indicated to me, at least, that there may be possible concerns with bug testing.
Just my two penny worth.
Peace my friend :)
lol people moan cos they have no life and spend there time in the basement of there mum's house playing eve all day, i'd like to see you make a game with no bugs or glitches, so shut your mouth LOL
  
hmmmm, nope, dont have a basement, particularly not my mum's (she's dead by the way) and, yup, i do have a life (married, kids, job and the responsibilities). Nope, don't want to learn how to program and write a bug free program, same as I dont want to be a car industry worker and build the perfect reliable car, because I all ready have a job which I do.
OK, ask yourself this question: can YOU truthfully say that you have always been happy after paying for something that is faulty? you've always thought "oh well, **** happens" ? You've NEVER taken anything back to a shop because its faulty?
And, BTW, Eve has always had UI problems, which, as I will mention again, is the one thing you ought to be getting right, its the FIRST thing your customers see.....
I expect to get a product that does what it's supposed to, I pay for it, it dosn't have to be perfect all the time (it would be nice if it would be), I understand that bugs will creep in sometimes, but all the time?
C'mon!!!

This is easy to fix. The column width is just too narrow. Drag the column to be wider, close and reopen the window. Repeat for other windows as needed.

I have found one workaround for stacked windows that gets unstacked every time you log in. Leave them unpinned and they will stay in place. If they are pinned when you log out they will be all over the place when you log back in.

I'm curious. Just how badly does CCP have to screw up before you will become dissatisfied?
This patch is remarkably bad. Praising CCP for this debacle is dysfunctional and enabling behavior on the part of the customers. Kind of like when some guy beats his wife, then the wife apologizes and tells him what a real man he is. "Beat me more. You know I deserve it."
CCP has fallen below even the simplest level of professional performance, and rebuke is not only justified, but required by the rate payers such that our expectations are made clear.
Continued tolerance for incompetence means continued incompetence.

If it aint broken it's about time we do it..
Windows popping up where THEY want to, not where you want them. Planet materials moving around between spaceports. Is it alive ? .. Creepy.. Where are my overview when i undock.. Left ? , Middle ? or to the Right where it is supposed to be ? And what about the ultra tiny font type when writing in chats?. ni looks like an r with a dot over itself. If it get's any smaller i guess i'll have to buy me a 40" monitor instead of my current 24".
Cant believe there are so many bugs in a, hopefully, well tested patch (I assume the test server are made for testing stuff before it is released on the live server).
Only have one word for a fix... Rollback |

I'm one of the (seemingly many) mac users who downloaded the patch, tried to run it, and got an error saying files have been changed and that I needed to reinstall eve.
When I start the game it recognizes that I downloaded yesterday's patch (the non-optional one) and tries to run that, but doesn't give me the option to download the optional one. I can't access my esc menu because the "run non-optional patch" window blocks it.
My questions are: 1) Is there a way I can get to the optional patch out of game? 2) Will it fix the problem I've been trying and failing to get addressed, which is the inability for many mac users to even log in?

The patch was a bit annyoing indeed.
But what's really annyoing: all these pathetic narrow-minded middle-class player posting their bs here. I just say: you hate CCP, EVE is a piece of crap, EVE is dying, you expect CCP should change your nappies everytime when you feel unhappy because you pay incredible 10 bucks per months - but CCP ignores you? Then just terminate your account and get rid of your weird addiction.
And: NO, noone wants to have your filthy stuff :-D

Windows still wont stay put on the PC version after the optional patch. New windows always open in the middle of the screen as well, and never reopen in their last position.
This is effectively keeping me offline until there is a fix, despite it being such a simple problem. Guess I'm just that OCD about my UI.
I hate to feed the trolls on this one, but this patch really seems to of have done more harm then good.

Originally by: CCP Navigator An optional patch will be deployed during downtime on Saturday, October 2 which will fix several issues reported to us following the release of Tyrannis 1.1. While the patch is optional, we would encourage everyone to apply the update to ensure your gameplay is improved over the weekend. The optional patch will be included in a future client update. A full list of updated patch notes can be found here.
Following downtime you will see a pop up box once the client is launched informing you that a patch is available and if you want to install. If you click 'Yes' then the patch will be applied and then you can log into Tranquility. If you choose 'No' you will log in to Tranquility directly but you will none of the fixes applied. If you clicked 'No' in error you can still apply the patch by going to the ESC menu, General Settings and apply the patch from the 'Install' button there.
I had originally clicked 'No' not to install the patch. Then I logged on to the Administrator account, loaded up Eve, clicked ESC and went to the General Settings tab, but there is no 'Install' button there. Is there another way I can install this patch?

Edited by: Zverofaust on 02/10/2010 17:46:30 Confirming the optional patch literally made every problem I've been having worse.
I think I've figured out what it is;
When I have stacked windows (for instance Overview and Fleet and Watchlist) the client automatically switches to any window that updates. For instance if people are moving around/leaving Fleet it'll constantly switch to the Fleet window in the stack every time; if Overview is changing (people going on/off grid) it will switch to the Overview every time, etc. ___________________________________________ The Hero of Kamela The Terror of Tararan The Executioner of Ezzara |

Installed the (optional) patch to the patch (6 times, once per client). Two noticeable changes. Fleet window acts normally and the chat window(s) remain at the size/position previously set.
Other than that, windows (info/cargo) continue to open in the center of the screen, no matter how often I move them, pin them, unpin them, they just won't stay put ! Double entries in the overview continue, as well as the "phantoms" that follow you from system to system. Probably some other stuff that I haven't tried yet.

Originally by: Zverofaust Also, performance is now so terrible that having two clients open with both characters on grid (even an empty grid, even if both cloaked) causes such lag as to make game unplayable.
However I can run six clients at the same time and no noticeable lag, so obviously there is not a distinct problem causing lag. Thats with all six clients running L4 missions, three clients at one and three at another.

Windows are still borked.. and I'm still quite annoyed by it. Might want to fix it kinda soon, CCP. It's one of them things that new players are going to find, strange, annoying, frustrating, to the point you going to lose out some new subs.
Originally by: Iron Davis You guys need to layoff the comments, it's an "optional" patch. CCP has done a beauiful job over the years and I can personally state that from experience, just do the "optional patch" and enjoy the game.
It isn't an 'Optional' patch. It's a patch to fix what they broke from a patch that was mandatory. And it's pretty bad how little this patch did, with how much it broke. At a time when the player base isn't entirely thrilled with the company, wondering how they are devoting their time and resources to EVE over other projects. When a patch like this comes along.. it really, really makes people wonder if they just have some small B-team of programmers and devs left working on EVE when **** comes up this poor in quality. Is this what we get to expect come Incursion, broken old important features along with half filled, broken new features? Fantastic.. I was excited before, recently.. I am left, bland.

EVE just brought up a DOS shell window and hung when I restarted to apply the patch. I'm honestly not sure if it updated or just screwed the pooch and died.

I noticed that only the windows i set up in the corners are flipping its position, hope that will help a bit to find the problems. Even after reseting all to standart positions and sizes and cleared the cache.
I hope there will be one more patch for this in the next days, because i love EVE really.

Looks to me as this is not an optional patch, it will not let me continue using the current version it indicates that the version is incompatable and will not let a person log back into the server, therefore the comement of optional should not even be stated.

ok well just logged in and started some mining. Still the fleet window cannot be stacked into overview, still the cargohold window reverts back to center of the screen, and the new drag n drop animation sucks ballz. The old one was way better. I have applied the optional patch already.
The good news, local can now be placed back off-screen. Hope you guys are having fun figuring our who spilt the coffee on the server and causing the FUBAR.

Just like to confirm that the patch did nothing for the chat windows. I still have the exact same troubles as I did when earlier.
I have 2 groups of stacked windows, each with about 3 stacked together. Every time I log in they scatter across my screen and ungroup from one another. Its getting to a point where I can't even be bothered to log in because I have to fix this every time. Rather just see CCP roll the patch back, it would be the smart thing to do.

All the fixes in the optional patch did not fix it. 
Clearing cache, reinstalling, deleting the whole setting folder and restarting to move all the windows around just leads to the same window misbehaviour again after restarting the client. Epic fail! At least I can move my chat windows that i can actually click on overview and move around a bit in space.

Confirmed that it doesn't fix chat window cascading, or the resetting of window positions to default.
Jolly good job, guys. You look worse than Microsoft.

My guess? It's Saturday and most of the CCP folks are at home with their families or out at a bar. That's kind of the thing to do on weekends, after all...
TBH, I'm probably going to wait for them to fix the window bug before I patch up; I've still got a few days of training left on both accounts. -Wrayeth n00b Extraordinaire "Look, pa! I just contributed absolutely nothing to this thread!" |

Which is the logical course of action when a patch causes wildly disproportionate quantities of bugs compared to the handful of tweaks and new features it introduces?
Is it:
A.) Allow the patch to remain deployed, frantically releasing emergency patches and hotfixes whilst the entire player base suffers through a laggy, buggy gaming environment.
B.) Roll back the patch, return to testing it in an actual testing environment, and allow the player base to continue enjoying the game while you iron out the bugs.
or
C.) Take off and nuke the entire game from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

However I can run six clients at the same time and no noticeable lag, so obviously there is not a distinct problem causing lag. Thats with all six clients running L4 missions, three clients at one and three at another.
I cannot run all 4 accounts at the same time without horrible "bursts" of lag that essentially freezes both/all accounts solid every time a ship blows up, or something changes, this happens whether I'm running 1, 2, 3, or all 4 accounts, and yes, the CPU usage has almost doubled even on my quad core system with 8 gig of ram and a decent Inet connection.

So you log in first, apply patch, client restarts, and then you relog back in to play. *scratches head*. Oo***.
It is odd that you mention this. I was wondering why Vista didn't chirp up and ask for permission to change stuff. I wonder what CCP actually did to get around this OS feature that *never* fails to be invoked by the standard EVE patching mechanism...

Loaded the patch,, went out to do a mission,,,
Lo and behold I now have 3 leaders of my gang,, all the same character two fleet commanders and and one squad leader,, and the client is perminantly trying to update the window.
It goes without saying all the window bugs still exist.
Made me ROLFMAO,,, CCP should rename to "Bugs R Us".
Stuck my nose in here in the vain hope one day CCP will actually bother to listen to their customers who actually do bother to test this junk,,,

Ok after doing my own test, I have found a fix I beleave. Its the pinning of windows that causes the problems of windows unstacking, and defaulting. So till CCP fixes the window problem, dont pin your windows, you can stack just not pin.
I hope this helps you guys out too

Have applied the optional patch to both my clients, different results for each. On one client my trade character generally has wallet, assets and market stacked together, doing anything in the market/wallet windows like updating an order, placing a buy or sell order and it flips back to assets, also column widths are fubared, no problems with the chat windows though. Suffering from overview glitches and salvage windows as per numerous other people on another character (trader never undocks)
On my mining character I get the overview glitches & column width glitches but no problems with market/assets/wallet combo , can or chat windows.

Do you work on hte QA team? That would certainly explain your comment here. Only other explanation is that you never do anything with your windows and just have them appear in default places and never pin them.
As for glitches, i think ive found a new one.

I have't read all the pages but a few things still "bugging" me after the 1.1 optional patch:
1. When I change skillqueue and press "apply" it immediately jumps back to character sheet 2. When using F buttons to fire weapons it sometimes displays ALL possible buttons on the screen 3. Pressing the visual buttons to fire weapons with my mouse often doesn't work at all 4. When setting destination it sometimes displays multiple stargates in yellow or shows all gates double on my overview 5. When I drag a window to another position it jumps back to the original position when I close/open again. Especially with loot boxes, which is quite annoying

With the amount of code interacting and I'm sure there's systemic anomalies inherent in the code somewhere. The thing is ccp is trying to please all of the people all of the time. I'm also sure with all the operating systems being used its a task in itself to comply with everyone's Video cards which most manufacturer's don't really (wink wink) support. So given the task at hand just wait it out and let other people do your debugging. I for one am not going anywhere until these issues are resolved. Ill sit in dock and just train.
Good Luck CCP..

This whole patch is bull****! This morning i log on and keep getting socket closed. so when i try and restart the client i get a nice optional update window. i download it and then i keep getting the bulk data stuck at 5. i read the thread online in which a GM had said to delete some folders and run the eve repair tool. this has not helped any at all and i even tried reinstalling the client to no avail. I think if CCP is gona put out patches they should do it right.

Same here. Nothing was fixed at all as far as I can see.
Now one of my corpmates is also reporting his UI bugs up when he undocks and goes to activate his modules. All 3 rows of modules become "active" like his ship has 8 slots on the ship for each type, but none of the modules will activate to be used or offline/online/reload.
Also, I have my fleet window stacked with another window, and whenever someone makes a broadcast the fleet window is automatically made the focus. Can I has a cookie? |

Lets see...
This patch affects different players differently.
It was released in time for the week-end when it would be busy and hopefully active in 0.0.
The "corrective" patch was released so fast that it appears they had it in the making while they were releasing the 1.1 patch.
Does anyone else think that CCP "patched" things for their new servers to perform and kinda knew the process would involve many glitches that relate to client platforms?

Settings - Reset Settings - press "Reset windows to default positions." Or rather the button to the right of it.
That will reset ALL your windows also, but should take care of an overly inflated Overview.

Well I have:
clear caches reset window positions reset all of UI manually deleted Eve's settings and caches reinstalled Eve installed optional patch which does nothing

^^this^^ All day long the windows change size, decimal points are truncated, move about randomly, and start in the upper left hand corner and have to be moved every time. What a stinking hassle. You undock, go about your business, and return to have the same crap recur. You log in with another character, same account, and things change again.
Rather than concentrate on playing the game, you are constantly reminded a whole bunch of things are screwed up and enjoyment goes out the window (heh-heh). This reminds me of work where the bosses constantly change things without any data to back up their stupid decision making process. And just screw things up further by implementing the changes anyway.

A lot of you have been *****ing..you know what? I have had minimal problems with the UI or new patch. I don't pin windows either. I like my windows to pop up randomly so I can put them where I want them. CCP has done a good job with Tyrannis so far. I like the optional patch. I had a little bit of problems that seemed server side, but they were fixed before I could put in a ticket. To all those saying Customer happiness and that these bugs should never happen I have to explain something to you. EVE Online is a pretty unique game, I have yet to see one that is just one server for everyone. Then you have clients for people who speak languages other than English. So CCP basically has to keep customers from ALL OVER THE WORLD happy. And as long as the majority is happy, that's all that matters.
For those having problems with connecting or hangups with EVE. I have a suggestion.
Download CCleaner and Defraggler they are free. If you don't know were to get it I will help you out a little. Go to http://www.google.com and search those names.
If you play a lot of games you should be using a similar two programs. I like these two because they don't stay on all the time. Run CCleaner once a week and Defraggler bi-monthly. But for right now run those two as soon as you install them. After CCleaner cleans out the Windows Cache Folders Then run Defraggler to defrag the computer. (You can use the one that comes with windows, but I am not happy with the defrag program that comes with windows.) See if that works. Remember if you all of a sudden have problems after a patch try doing some cleanup on your computer (You should do this at least once a week anyway.) Then see if that fixes it. If it does not submit a ticket, CCP devs will fix it as soon as they can.

Good God. First it was the Epic Fail that was the 1.1 patch. A patch whose deficiencies would have been glaringly obvious with 5 whole minutes worth of testing. Now we have Failboat 2.0! THIS PATCH FIX FIXED NOTHING!!! NOTHING!! Not a single damn problem was fixed. I still have to chase all my UI windows around the screen and resize them everytime i open one, my sounds are still all screwy, every once in awhile my hidden modules pop up for no reason, and, (and this one is really, really difficult to take) the lag is WORSE than pre-1.1! Jumping through gates, leaving stations, etc....I have seen my characters freeze for 30 secs to a minute. Bah! If I had known CCP had the same level of concern for proper patching that Ubisoft did patching Silent Hunter IV, I wouldnt have paid for a year for my characters! And I'm pretty damn sure I wont get my money back. Thank you CCP, you just killed my interest in this game, I sure as hell won't be recommending EVE to any of my friends anymore.....Fix this crap, fix it now, or rollback to pre-1.1 PLEASE... Because your "patching of the patches" just isn't working  |

Edited by: Ramjet Straylight on 03/10/2010 13:52:36 OK Folks, I only read page 1 of the comments. BUT, there is a theme already I gotta reply too.
Rollback, Why not?
Simple, I know at least one player who was online that posted in wvw chat thet if the ydid a rollback he would Quit. Why? He had made over 300 Million isk that day with a lucky set of drops from combat. Would you want to roll that back? I think not.
And if it happened to one person, it happened to others as well.
Sure, the guys he popped would like it, but they should not have been where they would lose such stuff if not prepared to do so. Remember, don't fly what you can't replace.
Oh, as for all the comments on FAIL in the patch, It works fine for me and most of my Corp and Alliance mates. No issues at all. Point is, no programmer can predict ALL the possible combinations of hardware out there. Code can do different things on some combo's of hardware, whether you like it or not Simply because most hardware has embedded code that interacts with what you programmed.

Originally by: Ramjet Straylight Edited by: Ramjet Straylight on 03/10/2010 13:52:36 OK Folks, I only read page 1 of the comments. BUT, there is a theme already I gotta reply too.
Rollback, Why not?
Simple, I know at least one player who was online that posted in wvw chat thet if the ydid a rollback he would Quit. Why? He had made over 300 Million isk that day with a lucky set of drops from combat. Would you want to roll that back? I think not.
And if it happened to one person, it happened to others as well.
Sure, the guys he popped would like it, but they should not have been where they would lose such stuff if not prepared to do so. Remember, don't fly what you can't replace.
Oh, as for all the comments on FAIL in the patch, It works fine for me and most of my Corp and Alliance mates. No issues at all. Point is, no programmer can predict ALL the possible combinations of hardware out there.

Dude, seriously? Rollback would be for the software not for rat droppings or sov changes...
As for your review of the current situation, thanks, but if they managed to find the UI code to break it, they can sure find it to fix it again...
Even if there was a follback of in-game events, i would glady pay a measly 300million to make the game as playable as it was before 1.1.
People all round the world were running different hardware before the patch and the UI was working.
Oh and theres a lot of code in eve? lol ok, lets let them off the hook with this horrendous botched patch because after all they made this game by accident and cannot be blamed because they could not have even known that they would be dealing with lots of computer code... Poor CCP....
No post here has more fail than yours...

1.) People who will quit EVE if there's a rollback after they get a lucky drop need to HTFU.
2.) I think so. I would give far more than 300m ISK if it meant removing this terrible patch from TQ.
3.) Like the dude said above, it would be a software rollback, not a data rollback. Herp.

Originally by: Enkill Eridos A lot of you have been *****ing..you know what? I have had minimal problems with the UI or new patch. I don't pin windows either. I like my windows to pop up randomly so I can put them where I want them. CCP has done a good job with Tyrannis so far. I like the optional patch. I had a little bit of problems that seemed server side, but they were fixed before I could put in a ticket. To all those saying Customer happiness and that these bugs should never happen I have to explain something to you. EVE Online is a pretty unique game, I have yet to see one that is just one server for everyone. Then you have clients for people who speak languages other than English. So CCP basically has to keep customers from ALL OVER THE WORLD happy. And as long as the majority is happy, that's all that matters.
For those having problems with connecting or hangups with EVE. I have a suggestion.
Download CCleaner and Defraggler they are free. If you don't know were to get it I will help you out a little. Go to http://www.google.com and search those names.
If you play a lot of games you should be using a similar two programs. I like these two because they don't stay on all the time. Run CCleaner once a week and Defraggler bi-monthly. But for right now run those two as soon as you install them. After CCleaner cleans out the Windows Cache Folders Then run Defraggler to defrag the computer. (You can use the one that comes with windows, but I am not happy with the defrag program that comes with windows.) See if that works. Remember if you all of a sudden have problems after a patch try doing some cleanup on your computer (You should do this at least once a week anyway.) Then see if that fixes it. If it does not submit a ticket, CCP devs will fix it as soon as they can.
I really wanted to report your post, but sadly there was no section for 'gross technical ignorance'. Hey, maybe you should reinstall Windows every month too? And do a little voodoo dance around your PC? -- Frog blast the vent core! |

You guys are lucky. At least you can log in after doing the update and patch. I have two accounts that can't even log in now. They get stuck at 5/46 when loading bulk updates. I've unloaded and reinstalled, repaired, used the "Optional Patch", uninstalled yet again, cleared caches, checked drivers, installed again, yada yada yada. Nothing has worked to get Eve to play on my vista or Windows 7 machine now. Any suggestions that I might try to even get logged on?
BTW, I agree completely with threads in this forum calling for a rollback and serious time and effort spent fixing the existing problems before anything new is added. In addition, perhaps more resources should be continually devoted to this program than new ones such as Dust that they have the hots for and will not work well to begin with if this program isn't running correctly.

This patch is failing hard. Whenever I open windows like cargo holds, ships or items windows, they still don't open at the location where I last closed them. I believe one of the purposes of this patch was to fix that and get it back to were it was before Tyrannis 1.1 but that didn't happen.

This patch is the same clusterf*ck as the 1.1 patch. First of all, your coders suck SO hard that you have to release a patch to fix what they ****ed up in the first place. AND THAT PATCH DOESN'T EVEN FIX WHAT THEY BROKE THE FIRST TIME AROUND. Windows STILL don't remember where they were pre-1.1. Opening wreck windows results in a mass of windows around the screen, instead of stacking into one area like I had them set to before. Your "fix" obviously doesn't work, so at this point would a rollback really be that much of an issue considering this thread is (currently) 13 pages of people telling you IT DOESN'T WORK. -----

Edited by: Vortex Steel on 03/10/2010 20:29:35 Yeah sorry but i gotta jump on the bandwagon here, this patch really messed up my EVE, seemed just fine after the previous patch but this 'optional' as its called totally messed things up. I have read a few posts reguarding window location memory. THIS IS REALLY messed up, everytime i log back in everything resets to crazy places all over, and it will NOT remember tabbed window settings, so literally anything i keep tabbed together, especially chat, splits up and randomly gets sent wherever. This is also true for my Fleet window, and all of my Storage containers, especially the ship cargo window. Again, EVE plain outright refuses to remember window location now, it picks a default and forces it on me every login.
I say bite the bullet and give your supporting clientele a free month of EVE just for having to suffer this one.

I'm not normally the type to jump on the "whine-wagon", but there's a legitimate issue this time (as opposed to the normal "you did what to my falcon" whine threads that happen).
Launching the client is fine, character selection is fine. Loading station environment seems to "stutter"; screen is black, then the station is there, screen goes black again, and my ship appears, screen goes black, and my chat windows appear, screen goes black and station services appear, screen goes black, and any open windows I had (pinned or not) appear, screen goes black . . . you get the idea.
Thank Krom that I'm in a station and not loading into a SS in some hostile system!
As annoying as that is, it's better than the real game-killer I've been having; CCP-EVE.exe has crashed unexpectedly. I open the market, and it crashes to desktop. I open my wallet, and I crash to desktop. I've basically been reduced to either watching the fascinating "Watch Eve load things" slideshow, or not playing at all. It just goes to show you that you shouldn't kneel down in front of the third rail, grab it with both hands, and **** on it from three feet away. |

I installed the optional patch and it did not fix the bug that the original 1.0 patch introduced, where everytime I log in, my chat windows are all broken apart (instead of stacked). Its a bit of pain having to redo those.
Otherwise, haven't noticed anything.
Oh - the Optional Patch fixed the audio klaxon that went off when I opened my scanner (that was introduced by the 1.0 patch).

Edited by: inza onoa on 04/10/2010 10:50:46 Applied the patch. Still having numerous window issues. Like windows popping up at places where I dont want them to pop up. Especially cargo container and corp hanger windows.
At people and places, when you try to select all bookmarks, the folders are selected too now, this shouldn't be.
When you try to put bookmarks into your people and places, you can't place them into the folder of your choice directly anymore. You'd have to place them in the root first, then you can move them into your folder of choice, this is quite annoying.
The align to bookmark feature is kinda neat, thanks for that CCP!
Edit: oh, onlining/offling pos modules (gas reactor modules for example) still says "PUT" instead of "Put Online" "Put Offline".

I lost a vagabond because of this fail patch this morning. When i dropped my drones the overview window moved out of screen and i couldt see what was on my overview anymore. I installed the patch that was supose to be fixing this bug but i still got all the problems with my windows anyway.. when i undock from station my overview again moves out of screen and i cant move it. Sometimes i need to change screen res before i can move the window back and then i have to change the screen res back to the old res. All of these problems was reported on Sisi before and why are you deploying a patch that does not have this fixed???

Don't pin your windows and they behave normally between logins for the most part.
You will still have a few chat windows that ungroup here and there, but most of the time they will be as you left them as long as you don't pin them.
Most of the window problems in general seem to be stemming from pinning them.

This is not about changing game features to accommodate a few players in a remote corner of New Eden, this is about fixing obvious bugs.

Strange that I run two characters and only one is affected. Even after downloading the optional patch my main is still plagued by chat windows that continue to move no matter how many times I repin them to the spot I want them. Also windows that do not stay the same size that i set them to.

I don¦t know if mentioned in the last 15 pages, but the wiki is flawed as well, when you look at a skill it¦s saying "primary attribute: 166 secondary attribute: 167"
Did you mess the database as well?

While you fixed the Put / Change buttons for POS management, the process screen still lists "Simple" and "Moon" as pieces of equipment.

Can someone from CCP clarify what version number we'll be at after installing both optional patches?
I'm running on Mac (10.6.4+ current patches). I had the first optional patch installed. According to someone else in the thread that took the version to 6.31.185699. When I started up today I chose to install the patch, it downloaded fine but when it went to install it threw an error stating it could not be installed. I had to Force Quit the client as it hung at that point.
When I restarted I was still at 6.31.185699 but was not presented the option to install update #2 again.
I went into General Settings, no new second patch option was presented, so I thought maybe I had to uninstall optional patch #1 first. Uninstalled it, restarted the client, was presented with the option to install the new optional patch. It downloaded again, this time successfully installed and restarted my client correctly. But my version is still 6.31.185699. So am I at patch #1, patch #2, some bizarre hybrid, or did patch #1 and #2 share the same version number?
Please clarify what our expectations should be with this patch

Some of the supposed fixes aren`t fixed at all
Info and wreck windows still pop up in middle of screen (if you pin them, next one you open is pinned all right: in centre of the screen)
Btw, this is AFTER this 2nd patch |

Optional patch 2 requester popped up AFTER login was entered.
Logging in a second time did not bring it back.
Some fixes from patch 1 seem broken again.
Manual patch download from the Eve-Online web site doesn't list the new October 5 patch.

Update: Found optional patch button in the general tab, have to be logged into the game to see it.
Installed the new optional patch. (Took two tries to get it to install without errors.)
Client still shows patch #1 version number.

Hey CCP maybe you want to tell us that not installing the optional 3rd patch WILL DELETE the second patch leaving me with the broken mess that is 1.1 with seeming no way to reinstall the optional patches. |
