Today's downtime will be extended by half an hour and will last from 11:00 - 12:00. Some late discoveries in deployment testing caused us to have to extend and we sincerely apologize for the late announcement. We'll keep you posted in this thread if anything else comes up.

I don't play Dust, I play EVE. I don't pay for Dust I pay for EVE. Correction, I cant play EVE either because CCP found out a few minutes before DT that they screwed up yet again. |

I hope that the people that complain about "DUST DT" are aware about Dust514 now beeing a part of EVE? Stop seeing it as 2 different games, it's one server. You will have the impact on Dust aswell as they will have impact on you (as long as you play the part of EVE where they meet each other). |

What I hear, 'Whinge, whinge... something about dust... whinge, whinge' I dont play dust, i play eve, but what they are achieving with dust is unique, adding to eve in a way no-one has done in another game. Its an awesome concept and gives even more depth to the eve universe.
Hope the update goes smoothly for CCP. |

The level of crying in this thread is pretty high, DUST and EvE are on the same server, and share a few features, more to come. So expect this to happen often, dust players will have to deal with EvE related down times as well. |

The only problem I have with Dust 514 is the fact that it was developed for the console. Nothing wrong with consoles but the game should have been available for PC users as well so that long time Eve players could at least play what is likely to become an important part of the game they have devoted years of subs to. |

I think this was part of their goal with DUST all along. It's quite clever, actually, and allows them to fund both games with the subs from just one without the need for shareholders and the like. For all their mistakes in the past, present and future, I've still never been more impressed with a Dev team's ingenuity, community interaction and bold nature as I have been with CCP.

Putting it on the PC would have pulled people away from Eve,
There is a very large market for console FPS as shown by the yearly updates to Medal of Honor, Call of Duty and Battlefield.
Dust has an advantage in that anyone can download it and pay it for free, and instead of yearly updates costing -ú40 for the mainstream games, the updates are free (you dont ever have to pay for dust)
If you want to test it grab a cheap PS3 second hand from ebay for -ú80 or so, plug a mouse and keyboard in, connect it to a second monitor on your desk and fire away (literally) |

But it is two separate games that are linked. People pay for them separately, you don't buy one get one free. So I can understand people getting a bit impatient about extended downtime for a game they don't subscribe to, especially as EVE players were in the EVE universe first.
But then surely CCP would have expected this or if they didn't they should have.
Edit: ok, Dust is none subscription iirc, but you need a console, so people like myself won't be playing Dust anyway, as don't own a console anymore and don't intend to get one. |

To be fair to them; I think they did realise, what they didn't realise is how often Dust could interfere with the running of EVE. |

To be fair to them; I think they did realise, what they didn't realise is how often Dust could interfere with the running of EVE. Which is virtually none at all.
A few minutes here and there isn't an issue for most adults, especially when you consider that downtimes are regularly much shorter than they are scheduled for. Unless, of course, they prefer that CCP keep the servers offline the fully alloted time each day so as not to cause confusion. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

To be fair to them; I think they did realise, what they didn't realise is how often Dust could interfere with the running of EVE. Which is virtually none at all. A few minutes here and there isn't an issue for most adults, especially when you consider that downtimes are regularly much shorter than they are scheduled for. Unless, of course, they prefer that CCP keep the servers offline the fully alloted time each day so as not to cause confusion.
As well as patching like on the UK bank holiday, which people remember. When people moan about things they're usually trying to make a point as well. So they're also thinking about all the possible DTs due to Dust which will be in the future even when nothing is being done to EVE which is the one they pay for. |

Well, hopefully the realization will dawn that they are simply different facets of the same game, and that most modifications and updates to DUST will also affect EvE one way or another.
Once things are up and running I think it's probably going to a relatively rare we see a patch for DUST that doesn't also effect changes on one level or another within EvE... just as this patch today also affects some EvE mechanics.. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

Whining is a culture i frown upon as well, but being ignorant is just worse. 'if' i was to whine about eve servers going down because a dust issue needs fixing, i will be right (yeah deal with it). EVE severs used to be down for an hour each day and thanks to the great work done by CCP to reduce that time to sometimes even less than 10 mins, i get to spend more time on EVE ( which is AWESOME).
Now if this reduction in downtime was to go back up to 1 hr because DUST issues have to be fixed regularly then i might just start to feel that i am at a disadvantage because of DUST. Yes this is the first time its happened, and i understand how worried some EVE players might be just in case it should be a repeated issue
DUST is not EVE, we share the same Universe and the two games interact to a degree not before seen in gaming but the point is, I play EVE and not DUST ( well i still suck at EVE but still, that's what i sub for).
I hope you being an adult and all don't bow to the 'a few minutes here and there stuff`' Minutemen means something else nowadays |

Basicly, they added more feature wich you decide to not take advantage of and so you refuse that said feature might possibly in certain circumstance when adding new code to the game as a whole could at some point create a bigger downtime because there are more stuff to do than what was expected? Thats what you are saying right? |

DUST is a new part of EVE. You don't want to use that new feature. You are unhappy about the new feature causing extra maintenance time right now while not knowing how often said additionnal maintenance time will happen.
It's part of the game. Get over it or contract me your stuff and quit. It just won't go away. |
