X'Alor	Posted - 2005.06.13 19:25:00 - [1] Curious. CCP has already said they are going to have a half hour timer to combat people using the log off tacticts to save ship in battle. That idea is fine and dandy to combat log off tactics but......... Just curious what will happen to the multitude of players that have CTD and loss of connection problems. I sometimes have over 5 CTD per 3 stage deadspace missions. That equates to me trying to do one DS mission with 2.5 hours wait time per 3 stage deadspace mission. And what about those who arrange partners and friends to do these missions and subsiquently one of them has a CTD and suppose it's the mission holder and leader? They didn't use this tactic but probably won't be able to log into thier game for a half hour due to a CTD. And what is gonna happen when after that half hour they finally get to log in only to find a loss of ship to the CTD loss of connection. I can't see one good thing coming from a half hour timer for myself and the multitudes of CTD I have from DS missions. That will make it completely unplayble for myself and I don't even use the tactic.
X'Alor	Posted - 2005.06.13 20:28:00 - [2] So that in mind. I get CTD in missions quite regularly. I rarely can log back in for usually 5 minutes or longer. if it happens under fire then I can control my warp away and my ship will be toast by time everything logs back in. If I didn't CTD then I could safely warp away when things get to hot. So I get a CTD and the ship stays put for a half hour? well that won't be very nice especially when most CTD in missions happen when your under fire. Badda bing I file petition for loss ship for staying put after CTD. I understood it as a you log off, they keep you logged for one half hour. Can you link any of the previous threads where a dev may have commented on it? if the ship stays put that is doubly bad.
X'Alor	Posted - 2005.06.14 14:23:00 - [3] Thanks, sometimes it takes a bit to jump my synapsis. puff puff puff must refrain from reading like that. only affects PvP and ship only stays "put" if warp scrambled but does stay active for 1/2 hour and will warp away if not scrambled. MMMMMMMMMM Now we gotz a 30 minute window to launch 3 3au probes and steal his ship possibly. bring on the fast scanners
X'Alor	Posted - 2005.06.14 16:38:00 - [4] thank you oveur. As for ........... Originally by: John Blackthorn If you are getting so many crash to desktops (CTD), then why don't you fix your computer? Update your sound and video drivers to start with. If they are updated then check with others to see if they had to back down to a previous version to get it to work well. I almost never have a ctd on any of my three computers I have running eve. And then I only get them when I load 2-3 clients up on one computer -BT ummmmm before exodus i had no CTD issues and baught a second duplicate puter cuz performance was so good and both were flawless and all drivers are current to the same drivers that were being used before exodus. No changes in drivers and all were updated and current befor eexodus and all drivers are still the same. Before exodus = flawless not one single CTD anyplace and was so pleased with my new puter that i got the second. Since exodus, can average One CTD minimum per deadspace lvl and as many as 5 or 6 for a 3 satage and who knows on the five stage. Only change, exodus. Now you'll prolly say something like need more Ram. um 2 gig aint enough. Since when does it say minimum requirement 4 gig of ram. what's that they say, walk a mile in a mans shoes
X'Alor	Posted - 2005.06.15 14:27:00 - [5] I've only seen screenies of big fleet battles and they are just massive war ships. I must say the idea of a fleet including many haulers filled with POS, POS fuel, loads of sentries, and anything else needed to sustain and run them to be able to have a coordinated war fleet just infront of the setup hauler fleet and to be able to exicute the setup during battle. ofcoarse that means having some empty haulers as connon fodder. I dunno ........ sounds like a boatload of fun just at the challenge of it. Plopping down a POS at the start of a big battle. Crazy ...... but interesting. I guess if ya got the isk to burn it'd be fun as heck to try.
