Edited by: Arithron on 21/06/2011 21:14:25 I love the tears of teenagers whining about X hours of DT for an expansion. If you calculated how many hours in total Eve is down for upgrades (which incidently make Eve a richer and better place to play in) I suspect you'd be out of pocket a few $. Big deal.
Eve is, IMO, an excellent game and well worth waiting the odd time for expansions to be deployed. I think this because they make the game better- think of the current expansion and what it is laying the groundworks for; a major improvement and leap forward which will eventually allow for a much richer game.
If you don't value these expansions and whine about losing a few cents- p*ss off and play something else, I don't want you playing Eve...although you still will, because you know its the best of its type out there.

Edited by: Arithron on 21/06/2011 22:00:45 Free market economy...yeah, that works well doesn't it? How many billions to bail out all the failed banks, how many forclosures and how many unemployed caused by a lack of liquidity in markets does it take to show this system is fundementally flawed?
BTW, putting CCP into the same category as a corporate isn't logical- it's a company that exists because the consumers want something and pay it to make it, not a company that exists to make consumers want something...

Originally by: Vu1t Will CCP add 1 extra day for free to everybody?
Why should they? You agreed to an EULA that mentions downtime for fixes and expansions. Besides, you seriously telling me you play for 24 hrs, and thus are entitled to a free day because you haven't been able to login for 17 hrs or so?
Personally, if it was my company I'd trawl through forums like these, find customers that think they are entitled to skill points/free gametime etc when IMPROVEMENTS are made to the game, and ban hammer the lot of them. This would improve the game environment of Eve no end, and thus be a positive PR exercise for those gamers that realise that improvements benefit them. Vote Arithron for CSM!

If you'd link me specfics then I'd appreciate it, because I haven't seen any mention of it all the way to page 9.
You will find a clean install works better and is more reliable. Vote Arithron for CSM! Check out my thread: http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=899358 |

To give 1 extra day for 360+k players will make them good lesson for the future to give correct estimations. It doesn't matters how much I'm playing, I've done some plans for today - now it all is broken and I'm getting angry. For examlpe, I NEVER saw people happy when their parcel/documents delivered by DHL/UPS/FEDEX are retained for day or more. And no courier service will ban custmers if they are not providing proper service.
When you start to plan your life around a game, this should start ringing some alarm bells!
DHL/FedEX etc state they will deliver in a certain time. CCP state clearly in EULA that they will take Eve Offline for expansions etc- theres a difference. If you've played a while, you'd realise that expansion day always take a while longer than they hope for. This is due to unforseen errors etc- I'd rather they took the time to implement a stable and fair expansion rather than one that was flakey or gave some advantages when they see a way to exploit an area of code that isn't working as it should.
Until it goes live, theres no way of seeing some of the problems. I fully expect a patch or two within 48 hrs :)
