Mesh clipping on the womens Acquire -¦Structure-¦ Skirt has been reduced.

Patch notes will be updated soon per CCP Explorer on twitter.

Please update OP with Dust interaction limitations or do we get a Dev blog about them

That's not really a lot of improvements for a 0.1 increment.

"Bombs detonation visual effect matches now server side hit information."

As opposed to... what? Relevant? Or no? Just curious.

"Sleeper drones now have more than one missile damage area." what is this bit here? Somewhat vague description of whatever it is, makes me think of hitbox more than anything. Assuming this has to do with multiple types of damage however?

I'd guess it's in relation to graphical missile effects.

Districts can be warped to via the planet context menu.

"District satellites will appear globally on the overview while there is a ship on grid with it, including cloaked ships."

So when on grid with a District satellite, you can't cloak? or?

Confirming you can cloak while on grid with a satellite but it still knows you are there and will indicate that someone is present on grid, just not specifically who or where.

Of course the real catch is, once you are at the satellite yourself you won't know whether they are still there or not.

So does the way dust affects fw mean ccp is going to renege on their promise to not make dust affect null sov?

*This change may move a FW solar system in or out of a vulnerable state after the patch depending on how many temperate planets are present during deployment time.

Of course the real catch is, once you are at the satellite yourself you won't know whether they are still there or not.

Also it seems weird that you can only warp to district satellites when there is a battle going or when you're already there. Shouldn't they be available all the time? Bombardment ships are going to want to be able to get into position before battles start, as will anti-bombardment fleets.

I may be reading too much into this, but "how many temperate planets are present during deployment time" makes it sound like either the number of planets may be changing or some planets may be converted to temperate planets. Anyone in the know care to comment?

So does the way dust affects fw mean ccp is going to renege on their promise to not make dust affect null sov?

It may read better as "During deployment time, systems may change in or out of a vulnerable state depending on how many temperate planets are present"

We have no plans to change the distribution of planets, however we may choose to adjust the districts in a future release.

Quick question.

Each planet has multiple districts from my understanding. If a planet becomes "contested" by Dust514, so it's not 100% Amarr controlled, does it still apply the bonus/penalty for Victory points? Or is it broken down some other way?

Will the graphic fixes finally force my main to wear trousers in CQ? Would be nice

Have you tested it on Buckingham

It happens randomly so I can't cout on it. Maybe it's just my main who don't like trousers. Damn old man. He seems more and more confused on one's old age.

WTF.

Not only have they never made such a promise, they have in fact actively made it as clear as they possibly can that DUST WILL influence nullsec sov. It's one of the game's selling points. It's sort of their primary objective.

People criticize CCP for some really dumb ship sometimes, but this is about the worst I've ever seen. It's silly to accuse them of reneging on a promise they never actually made. It's just plain absurd to accuse them of reneging on a non-existent promise that is diametrically opposed to their stated intentions and game plan.

What the actual F.

I hate to say it, but nice "weekly inventory updates until it is fixed" that you don't have in there....

"District satellites will appear globally on the overview while there is a ship on grid with it, including cloaked ships."

A tucking issue with the male Sterling shirts has been fixed.

You can cloak, it just means that even if you are cloaked and warp to the district everyone in local will know of your presence

what a great update.....

Dust...who give a **** about that ps3 game, we PC players pay for the develop dust and we cant play it with out have a ps3.. WTF
thats how CCP say thanks to you EVE players, and now it's taking our game time and (RL money) for develop it more... WTF


Factional Warfare

Planetary districts are future DUST514 battle zones, and impact Factional Warfare System Capture Status in a solar system.
Each district owned by a particular Factional Warfare faction affects the number of Victory Points needed to move a Factional Warfare system into a vulnerable state.
If a district owner is the same faction than the one controlling the Factional Warfare system, the number of Victory Points needed to put the solar system into vulnerable mode is increased
If a district owner is the opposing faction than the one controlling the Factional Warfare system, the number of Victory Points needed to put the solar system into vulnerable mode is decreased
Each temperate planet in Factional Warfare space contributes by 12.5% to the System Capture Status Victory Point pool, for a maximum of 50% Victory Points in Factional Warfare solar systems with four temperate planets.
Until DUST514 is fully implemented on Tranquility, planetary districts have been set to belong to the NPC faction that traditionally owned the Factional Warfare solar system before players interference. Further information is available in this forum post.

Don't forget when our drone bays disappear... lolz

But seriously, they are at least doing something, I will admit I am disappointed that this will not be available for Xbox, but they have reasons for that. Dust will add a lot of new fetures for us up in space and will be quite fun IMO

I also look forward to retribution, I love the idea of buying killrights, one thing I do want to ask from CCP is, how will DUST514 affect us people who live in wormholes, we will still have the lush and beautiful planets all for ourselves right? ^^

Great, lots of changes to the clothes graphics and shoehorning some changes into faction-war to interface with a console game that will be dead in 3 months.

Congratulations.

The biggest wounder in EVE online WTF do they use the test server for..

Why dont they ever Test these patches on other servers first everyone knows extended DT means this patch may not work and then when they extend the already extended DT it just means oh crap this didnt work everyone hurry up and fix it just saying....WTF

Uhm... For testing? What we have here is obviously a problem with applying the patch, not the patch content itself.

same here i have to plex in 9 days and this DT is costing me ISK...by the way what does ISK look like?

well is that not why they have the test server for test it ?

WTF

and there will be minimum 5 bugs to fix after the make the patch and you will see a patch update tomorrow agen,
thats why i wounder WTF is the test server for.


The cluster is not currently accepting connections WTF

You failed to address it properly.
You could try singing the song of its people.

CCP: Make skills train twice as fast during downtime.
People will complain that the patch went up too quickly.

Play DUST while waiting...just saying...

i pay to play EVE not Dust

we cant we dont have a ps3
we all have pc's

we cant we dont have a ps3
we all have pc's

I have a PS3, it's even on right now. Don't have Dust though, can't be arsed :-p

CCP took a Coffee break

we cant we dont have a ps3
we all have pc's

Lies! There's 11 of them online now

not to mention that theres bound to be others like me who hate playstations with a passion and will never own one and will therefore never even see dust gameplay first hand lol

They are taking advantage of the fact jita is empty, and beating margin scams.
Not actually fixing the problem. ;)

Our isk, who art in space,
hallowed be your name,
Your missiles come,
your npc be done,
in high sec as it is in null,
Give us this day our daily loot,
and forgive us our debt,
as we ****** over the debtor,
and lead us not into pirates,
but deliver us from evil.

There you go, i addressed it.

DUST will take priority, leaving eve's ever dwindling fan base pissed off as usual, but as per usual we wont do anything, and continue to hand over our monies.

Wouldnt worry about it, the game will be dead in 6 weeks and abandoned in 3 months.

That is your personal opinion, which yes you are entitled to...

but please stop stating it as fact. you're probably wrong.

I remember the same thing being said about counterstrike, day of defeat and many other games during their beta.

There is a huge difference between DUST and these games, and it is a factor that will likely keep people comming back.
Persistance.

The world is not just a series of battles that have no effect other than to modify your personal Kill/Death ratio.
You'd be surprised how many people will forgive problematic gameplay simply because their actions can have a lasting effect on the game world.

if theres another extension to this DT i will be asking for ISK CCP or a skill or something finished when i get back on

Since Dust is becoming a part of eve and vice versa, DUST is a pretty high priority for eve players as well.
Don't advocate your subjective opinion as that off the entire groups.

wah wah i don't care about DUST514 wah wah..

Hey we need something EvE related not currently controlled by massive crappy powerblocks.. just sayin

As much as I cant stand it (personnal opinion) i think it would be in everyones best interest if dust succeeds.

Reason: Sony has dumped a lot of money in CCP, who is now so engrained in dust (and eve integration) that if it fails it will most likely reverberate throughout the company and eve will suffer too.

Just a random though though.

SONY gave CCP money? i thought it was the other way around

Personally i think its a great idea merging PS3 players with a pc platform. But still looks like CCP want to line there pockets with gold, wondering why it has not going on x box aswell DEAL or somin? i dunno but hope they dont forget the hrdcore eve players and there needs before the billions of PS3 hardcore shooters. My refexes are to old to compete with those guys :)

They both are highly invested in it.

If i remember rightly, the reason DUST is not available on Xbox is all down to microsoft not CCP. Something to do with not wanting to cross platform their games, which would explain why my BF3 stats are seperate for Xbox and PC

Its 13:48

Where's ma game, CCP? WHERE'S MA GAME???

how can SONY be invested in it they are broke
they are on the edge of going under as it is

13:55 now the status read as "unknown". What happened? I suppose a bunch of EvE dev are now panicking in Iceland since their game probably freeze up and refused to start.. all because of they want to fix jiggling b00bies...

i pay to play EVE not Dust

DUST was to be on Xbox as well but the level of control Microsoft required to allow the interaction was unacceptable, i.e. they wanted complete control/access to all of the EVE info as well as DUST.

As an Xbox owner its a little disappointing as I'd like to have given DUST a go but like others I'm not going to buy a PS3 specifically to do so. That said I'm not past borrowing a friends...

Patch notes will be updated soon per CCP Explorer on twitter.

Please update OP with Dust interaction limitations or do we get a Dev blog about them

Sony isnt broke. At any rate... there was significant talk about sony investing in ccp last year. Rumors about a buyout (just rumors) but at the least major stock purchases, which would then go to fund other initiatives (like dust).

how can SONY be invested in it they are broke
they are on the edge of going under as it is

Trying to not sound like a troll is difficult when responding to statements like this...
So.. time to quit trying.

Well... DUH!!

DUST is free to download.
DUST has no subscription
DUST will apparently retain the above 2 points after release

So.. yeah... you don't pay for DUST.


That said. your EULA and TOS for EvE do clearly state that downtimes might be extended...
and seriously. you're complaining that it's been extended to a whole 4 hours? (actually a little less)
most other games have 8-12 hour downtimes for 0.1 increment patches and even longer for 1.0 increment ones.

qq less.
do something else.
maybe go outside or something.

While I am sure there are a several thousand players who will...there are millions who won't. There is no excuse to release a game that includes problematic gameplay while still in beta, look at SWTOR...arguably the biggest IP you can tap into...loses half of it's players in the first 6 months because of problematic gameplay. Fix the game, or don't release it.

Wassup nerds, I need to be breaking me some space toys.

Ave it.

Says delayed until 1405, its now 1505.

Whats the status?

EDIT: nvm fail tz, its actually 1405 according to my post.

sony has not made a profit in years
if they dont fix it they wont last many more years

How can one quit less?
QQ less? Makes no sense.

Reading comprehension failure.

Lasting Effect On The Game World.

Hell... Warhammer online... people still play that simply to get their statue up in the capital city for a week... and the pvp (main selling point) in that is buggy as hell.
Counterstrike, you could shoot people through walls for years because their shadows passed through the things... no persistant effects on the game world, but it's still going strong.

the FPS genre is full of bugs and exploits that people use in multiplayer, but people still play them. Even when they have to pay for subscriptions to X-box live or the like.

DUST is free. utterly free... (unless you want AUR) ... that alone will bring in a lot of players. even if it's just as a game to play when they are broke at the end of the pay-month

I like extended DT discussions / drama.

[quote=Cathrine Carlile][quote=Dronekiller4]
TL;DR What we all should be interested in and should be considered 'high priority' is game balance. Sandbox, PvP, EVE's economy as a whole, isk sinks, etc. The rest is just 'optional gameplay'.

I am actually intimidated by your portrait

All these people whining...... As someone stated earlier, when a patch is released for something like World of Warcraft they go offline for hours, even for a minor patch. The game will be up when it's up. Until then, go play something else, like Call of Duty, Battlefield 3, League of Legends, Shogun 2. Whatever floats your boat.

Update at 15:05 UTC: Downtime will be extended.... oh well.. you get the point

they will play DUST because there broke? ..hmm broke and still own a PS3 nice!

I dont know who thinks sony is broke i think its far from the truth the have started producing the next line of future tvs and working on the ps4 seem to have enough money to R&D so i pressume the have a bit stored away.

QQ is a meme, based on the fact that the letter Q looks a little like a tear falling from an eye.
it means 'cry' or 'crying' ... dependant on the situation.

hence the term.. "Less QQ, More PewPew"
i mean 'less quit more shoot' doesn't sound right does it

Aight Aight, want patches and downtime to be exact?

Let's all start paying 25 euro / 32 $ per expansion eh?

Or, ccp could stop providing new content altogether and just fix the current bugs, hmm?


Point is:

Stuff be free, don't complain!

Ohhhhh, ok. of course mate. But can you tell me why the **** they specify a time and can never follow their own offline limit?

EVE have about 15-20 minutes of downtime every day. That accumulates to a lot compared to other games. If other games have 8 hours downtime twice a year, it's still little compared to EVE.
