Originally by: Dennie Fleetfoot For all the people that are accusing us of being whiners, complaining about changes we don't like, afraid of change etc, etc....
1. I'm happy, ney, delighted for you that CQ works splendidly on your ú2k gaming rig. Fair play to you.
2. What your failing to grasp, from your electronic ivory PC towers, is that it would seem that Incarna is not working on a huge number of your fellow players set up's.
3. We pay for the same product as you and if it wasn't working you'd be whining too.
4. As we are paying customers of CCP, we pay for the development, wages and costs of CCP. So we are morally and more importantly legally entitled to complain when it goes wrong.
5. When other customers with brand new gaming rigs the equal or even better than yours are saying it's killing their rig, then there is a serious problem with this beta release.
6. There is no 6.
7. Most of us were looking forward to WIS, excited even by the possibilities it would bring. Sadly, it would seem that CCP have bitten more than they chew. After nearly 5 years of development they can't get an Avatar to walk around one room without CPU's melting.
8. Fundamental design choice errors have clearly been made. For example, the fact that CQ uses massively more resources than flying in space but CCP failed to make separate graphic settings for the two environments. My PC with AA off, can happily run space on full settings at 60fps with only 25% CPU usage. CQ is turned on, it shares the same settings as space, I dock and it goes up to 98% CPU, a 20 degree jump in temperature and less than 10 fps. So the only option is to turn it off completely, thereby relegating the hard work that CCP have clearly done on it as pointless.
9. CQ doesn't even work on low settings for me. It took 2 minutes for my avatar to fully render. The first minute was just his hair moving about in a black and white box shaped room. Is this now considered acceptable as gold master standard?
10. It's increasingly obvious to many on the forums, both here and in corps throughout the game as well as in the game itself that CQ wasn't ready for inclusion in Incarna. It's made progress since the test servers we were all invited to try, I grant you that. But for full release on thousands of different PC set ups..... it's nowhere near ready, is clearly still beta and shouldn't have released till Incursion 1.1 or even 1.2. Like I said, if most are having to turn it off, then it was a waste of CCP's time and our money.
I'm currently downloading the full client. I'm hoping that with a fresh install and a few other tweaks on my PC I might get it working better.
But should I doing all that in the first place is all I'm saying. I pay to play EVE, not to get it working. That's what I pay CCP for.
whiner
hmm, i agree to his whining,2 instances of Eve undocked is only 11% CPU utilization on an Intel 860 2.8GHz proc, when both instances are docked, CPU jumps to 38%, not that its a problem to me, but I guess CCP just bumped hardware requirements for Eve to the higher end of the spectrum, what it means? simple, not all people who wants to play Eve be willing to upgrade a pc just to play Eve.
