YOU KNOW IT WOULD MAKE ALOT MORE SENSE TO OVERCOMPENSATE THE AMOUNT OF TIME YOU THINK THE UPDATE WILL TAKE AND OPEN IT EARLY INSTEAD OF EXTENDING THE EXTENDED DT ----EVERY TIME---- YOU GUYS DO A BLOODY PATCH. I'M SURPRISED PEOPLE COME ON AT THE GIVEN TIME THINKING IT'LL BE READY, I MEAN, WHEN HAVE YOU GUYS MADE A DEADLINE??

While I do like the whole "my character has a purpose other than a face in the corner of my screen" aspect, a "Do not leave ship" option would be nice when docking, especially if it's for a moment to repair hull and recharge sheild/cap before jumping back out into a mission.

---

Isn't there a setting to disable this function?

---

not yet - and a first look over the various tabs of the options window didnt reveal one .... hope for a later patch fix

So... I hope SOMEONE sees this and answers amongst the flurry of comments about the extended downtime...

Situation: I have a character who's skillqueue now ends during the downtime.
Question: Does anyone know if there is a precedent for getting the skillpoints back for time spent with an empty queue in situations like this, and how might I get reimbursed?

- I couldn't get online for RL reasons last night, was relieved when the plan said it should be back up in time, but now its extended past the training completion time... relief is now gone

Man, I love Patchdays... Sitting here with a few beers, reading all these sweet tears, EMOrages, f*** CCP, and "is the server up yet"

You people are even funnier on the forums than in the game.

My advice: Relax, take a walk, or even a night without EVE. The universe wont selfdestruct if you don't log in for a few hours, you know...

It would be really nice if they took our advice and WAY overcompensated.

Dev: "Hey, it looks like this is going to actually take until 18:00, boss."

Senior Dev: "Don't ****ing say 18:00 on the forums, tell them 21:00...then we'll just come back online at 18:00 and everyone will be surprised."

Exactly. What if your car broke down and the mechanic showed up with Flasy Pinstriping, Shiny new wheel covers, and Plush seat covers and Fuzzy dice to hang from your rearview mirror, put all that on and drove away without fixing the reason why your car wouldn't run right. Would you be happy?

not realy.
last time i was moaning was around 2008 (?) when GM NeverPlayedThisGameBeforeWhatIsIt
decided to nerf the sh1.t out of carriers/motherships
but a few more ppl joined me on forum and he changed his mind.

"The new player experience has gotten somewhat easier"
- dude, when i started to play this stupid game many new players sometimes had
troubles to even understand what killed them.
- CEOs while deploying POS (pieces-of-sh1.t, what we were calling them at the time)
where cursing heavens
life was hursh, hard and exciting.
do you expect me to be impresed with walking?
if i want to pay/play game where i can walk i would just log into quake, for free mate.
