WTF CCP ? We are not all uber earning programmers or computer specialists and as such cannot afford the very latest pc's. Your brain child will now no longer even let me enter the game, as it now requires "SSE2 Processor Support" to play. I googled the info and went to a site that offers an explanation for free (CPU-Z)and it informed me that my pc only supports "SSE". So whos wise idea was it to exclude a large proportion of your devoted PAYING clients by making the update useless to us. Wake up and re-adjust please....this is one P1553D off bunny

Thats a funny reply ibex. The point I was making is still valid though. It's one thing to be asked to replace a video card, which I have done, but to have to replace a pc is quite another. I am not a cheap ass. I have limited abilities to afford an upgrade of that magnitude

All of which is highly interesting stuff but rather departs from the fact that not all the people who pay to play are equipped to finance this to any other level than the one they are at...are we now honestly saying that only the wealthy are allowed to play in here ?

Originally by: Space Miyabi Guys, Windows XP is 10 years old and it is fully supported. For those who say that "your system is too old" (well it runs eve FINE) I would like to see if CCP makes EVE only for windows 7.
Windows XP users would rage.
You obviously have a poor grasp of the English language. I never stated that my OS was not up to the new standard, I stated that the new standard requires the pcs' cpu to have SSE2 Support....two totally separte subjects

Try working for a cheap-assed frenchman who wouldnt afford us the time of day let alone a pay increase to cover the cost of inflation and then you'd have a fair approximation of my personal finances

Able to support 4 gigs of ram, a pci-e card (you serioulsy should have that already anyways) and the mobo is good at general but not overkill clocking.
If you cant afford ú100, go and find a better job.
I have a wife, 2 kids and I work as a sales rep for comet ( I earn like less than 25k per year.....), have a mortgage and bills to pay but i managed to GOOGLE and READ about cheap reliable hardware and got my son that combo above ^
I also love to troll but ú100 is realistic and affordable by most people, if its not there normally run down junkies who have like 20 kids and expect the government to pay for them
And I'd be willing to bet that your wife works and that you have access to company discount so as to save yourself a shed load on the expense of upgrading each and every year too......ELITSM pure and simple...if you cant afford to upgrade cos of your circumstances you shouldnt be further penalised because of the size of your wallet

Originally by: cyclobs Edited by: cyclobs on 19/01/2011 14:15:17 really......
seriously to get a decent gaming machine that will run eve these days can easily be done under $500, and if your pc can't run eve you really need an upgrade
Seriously !!? if I had access to that lvl of cash I'd leave her indoors, get a teepee and become a hippy with a net connection

Oh and the lots of you, it just makes about a 1000 people, according to ccp...
Fair comment iIsuppose but then agagin thats if you decide that you believe the numbers they provide...fyi dolly the cloned sheep says hi to the rest of the gullable flock too

Originally by: Lork Niffle Edited by: Lork Niffle on 19/01/2011 18:15:05 I will also heed you to acquire a graphics chip that is capable of Shader Model 3.0. This means a Geforce 6100, Radeon X1300 or Intel X3100 or higher GPU In order to play the game.
Since CCP will be phasing that out in the near future.
FYI I already upgraded my card to cover shaders 3.0, that was easy enough to do but a cpu isnt plug and play like a gpu...hell...its not even in the same price range...dont forget that a lot of the ppl replying in here are obviosly of U.S. in origin as they keep refering to $US....well guess what...systems are naturally cheaper in your country as a lot of the items you say cost $500 or less are made in your country. The numbers are roughly the same in Europe but when you consider the exchange rate it is then that you see the difference in cost ie what costs you $500 costs us around Sterling ú500+. Now convert using a ratio of 1-1.6......OH!! lets see....for a low range pc that mp wont last more than a year its gonna cost me USD$750+ just to play till the next ******* comes along with a great idea of not allowing SSE* support....get off your fat arses and realise that we are not all as priveled as the rest of you....if it wasnt for our meager support you wouldnt have a game to play either.

Originally by: Neonoodle WEll maybe post your specs to see if anyone can help you out, or give advie on what you could fit to get you back up and running?
It's a nice thought and ty for showing positivity but I have enquired and it would need to be a complete surgical makeover unfortunately
Originally by: Caiman Graystock is this guy playing out of cardboard box on a street corner? geez
If I were, would it make a difference to you ? please stop being so fracking negative as my rl money is every bit as good as anyone elses...makes no odds as to how I pay or play, the mere fact that I do means that I should, as a paying member of this community, have access to this sort of info well in advance and not have it dumped on my doorstep 36hrs before they say "OH ?!! sorry...didnt we mention that you wouldn't have access to the game when we told you of all the exciting stuff we're doing that'll be for wealthy ppl only?" Go get a pair and a reason to be here before you critique my abilities

Originally by: Akor Flandres HEY TROLL WHEN LESS THAN 0.5% OF PEOPLE USE WINDOWS XP COME BACK TO MAKE YOUR POINT
and you got this figure from who ? Oh...thats right...CCP....they said that a survey said.....and who was there to survey ALL the actual users of the game ? thats right...no-one...even in their own sticky it says that their own testers had the very same probs as a lot of us are having so what is your point? oh I see...the point you're making is that you have greater access to being an a55hole....I bow to your smelliness

Originally by: RogueSniper1(if its running on a sub right now) for a while and save up for a new PC... EVE isn't going anywhere, not like it'll just disappear.
$200-300 for a new PC, $100-200 for a used PC... these cheap machines can play EVE just fine.
All these people that don't have SSE2 CPUs are all getting angry when CCP is improving the game but you guys don't to upgrade. Like previous posters said its an 8+ year old technology, you've had plenty of time to upgrade.[/quote
If everyone payed by plex using isk then there would be ZERO INCOME FOR CCP AND THEREFORE NO ABILITY TO PAY GEEKS TO SORT OUT THESE "OVERSIGHTS"

Are you all barking mad or just plain insane? Read the previous entries and you will discover that a decent gaming pc in the UK costs anywhere from ú500 lvl entry to whatever you can afford....for those that know no other currency thats around USD$750+......I spose this is the reason why you ppl led us all into a depression that the rest of us are fighting to survive atm...on the basis of "Oh, my mortgage is how much? It's ok, I'll just write my bad debts off and someone else can pick up the tab"
To a lot of us, this is the only entertainment that we can just about afford, so to have to cough up yet more money so that I can have a pretty looking toon is unjustifiable....what else was the update for if not that

Owledge....Ty for actually catalising the point I was so miserably trying to get across...Not all of us pay or play in the same fashion so it is impossible for sweeping generalisations to be made and think that there is only one rule of financing ones lifestyle choices. In essence it is childlike to beleive that there is a "One size fits all" approach in here when there is so obviously not

Whilst there have been many positive and negative responses to this situation I do still get the over-riding feeling that this was an unaceptable situation made worse by the fact that CCP had shed loads of time to say something and failed to do so Why? Who knows The fact still remains that this has happened and its not for lack of employment that some of us do not have access to the required amount of rl money...the fact that we don't should not be used as a callous way of excluding older but still perfectly viable and operational systems Can anyone honestly say that compiling a *.lib file differently has made the lag any better or worse or the general gameplay any better or worse because from what I have seen in here from the general "I've got a problem with *.*" entries it would appear that its a lot worse So you tell me, if what has replaced the functioning set-up that preceeded this abortion of an up-date what was the point? We are all in here to have some fun in our off-time and I truly feel sad for those that say things like "It's only USD$2-300 for a mobo and stuff...it maybe that much in the land of the free but everywhere else in the world has to pay real money...so whatever it is you guys pay, the numbers stay the same but the currency changes and when it does, USD$2-300 becomes Sterlingú320-ú500...and thats for a bog standard machine that most probably wont survive the next genius' idea of not hitting the right button when ordering the next *.lib file to be compiled When replying try to have some comprehension beyond the bounds of your own selfish wasnts and needs for those that are less fortunate FFS

Originally by: Travis Immortalis I flip burgers for Wendey's part-time, go to school full-time, and I still have two EVE accounts, running on two dual-core-CPU computersàand no, I didn't get any help from government or parents to afford my computers. So stop whining, and manage your finances better.
Gawd, seriouslyàcomplaining that a 2011 game won't run on pre-2003 machinesàwelcome to the real world, ******.
Fine words from the "Man" who still lives at home with his single mommy and who sells drugs to kids as a sideline....$1=ú1...are you off your **** mate....our currency is way stronger as it has been since you ppl cane up with the dollar on average the exchange has always hovered at $1=ú1.6 and the only reason why you have the international currency, till the Chinese get it, is because you stole that privelege from the Brits during the war

when you come out with assanine comments like save or manage your money better....is it any more or less offensive when I rebutt with drug references....thats right....eaually offensive....you are making judgement calls when you are neither required or qualified to talk about someone elses financial state so until such time keep this convo to the subject in hand
