Nosferatu Zodd	Posted - 2005.12.14 20:52:00 - [1] I thought the RMR update was for next week???? I didn't even had the time to set another skill. Why the hell can't you inform us a little sooner? <img src="http://www.naruto-kun.com/images/narutotest/neji.jpg" alt="naruto" width="212" height="97" border="0"><br><b><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="1"><a href="http://narut
Bren Kasir	Posted - 2005.12.14 20:53:00 - [2] TBF the news centre has had it shown as today for at least a day or two... The MOTD on TQ has been on about it all day --- You want fries with that?
Martinus Crimson	Posted - 2005.12.14 20:53:00 - [3] Its been all over the damn devblogs .. all over the news .. and your the ONLY one complaining about not getting informed. Now lets be honest, it seems the problem lies more with you then with CCP's notification. ----------------------- Nuttin ^^

Woman69001	Posted - 2005.12.14 20:54:00 - [7] Er....do you live in a system that is visted by no one? There has beeen news of the update eveywhere.
Nosferatu Zodd	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:03:00 - [8] The only thing I heard about was ... soon (maybe next week) there will be the RMR update and a lot of jokes like "I'll probably be for next year". Nobody in the corp gave a kick about it, so there are about 85 people that didn't give a damn thing about the update? Also I've been away for 2 days ... well yeah not everybody has the privelege to be home every day to play EVE and check the info every day or every hour. If they told us 2 weeks ago, the update is planned for date XX/XX/XX ... check for eventual changes of this date ... wouldn't that be easier? <img src="http://www.naruto-kun.com/images/narutotest/neji.jpg" alt="naruto" width="212" height="97" border="0"><br><b><font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="1"><a href="http://narut

I would sympathise with you if the news came out yesterday but it was a almost week! He's talking about the actual date. We all knew RMR was coming (we aint all that blind) but they said the 15th yesterday and only pushed it forward while 90% of us were at work.

Andrue	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:12:00 - [28] I agree with the original poster for the most part. I visit these forums throughout the day and until yesterday all I knew was that the devs were hoping to roll it out on the 15th but weren't sure. It came as a complete surprise to me when today at 20:00 was announced. I don't know how the OP hadn't heard it was this week but I can fully sympathise with people that didn't know it was tonight. -- (Battle hardened miner) [Brackley, UK] WARNING:This post may contain large doses of reality.
Ronsun	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:15:00 - [29] Ive only been playing for aprox 1 week, even I knew it was today.
Nosferatu Zodd	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:18:00 - [30] It's a real pleasure to see that no one found some real info with dates to prove my wrong. What I can see is that you're all EVE addicts ... hehe ... all gathered on the forums like junkies without their dope, posting like hell ... never seen meaningless answers flowing as fast as this over such a minor question.
Alexis Ne	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:21:00 - [31] Edited by: Alexis Ne on 14/12/2005 21:22:25 Perhaps using an e-mail notification would be a good idea. Dear Sir/Madam, RMR blah-blah, 2005.12.14 at 20:00GMT blah-blah. After all, they do take time to send "participate in our survey" e-mail after you've dealt with EVE support. +: I did set a skill ;)

Snefru	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:32:00 - [35] Dev Blog stated yesterday patch will be 15 Dec. It was updated 14 Dec 00:23 to patch being deployed 14 Dec 22:00. So yea, a little more notice would be nice.
Cookie	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:33:00 - [36] you prolly typed in a wrong adress when you registered, therefore the driver bringing the notice missed you

Don't blame others for your not keeping up with things. It's been all over the place. Besides, even if it's not 'your fault', big freaking deal, it's just one day.... One day it is if the servers are back on-line after one day Realy, I don't care about the few hours I'm going to lose if the servers will be on-line after 24 hours.
Allen Deckard	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:39:00 - [38] I knew about it but I do understand what your saying. the word 2 days ago was that it would happen thursday. I found out last night pretty late that it would be today. Had I not played yesterday I wouldn't have known either.

Hmmm ... we hope ... Thursday the 15th of December ... the defence has no more questions
Embattle	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:44:00 - [40] There has been enough information around showing that it was going to be this week unless a serious problem occured....tough ****. ----------- I would have a sig but it might break a arm, leg or even worse a rule.
JOSEPHx	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:49:00 - [41] paying attention ftw ---
Nosferatu Zodd	Posted - 2005.12.14 21:50:00 - [42] Originally by: Cookie you prolly typed in a wrong adress when you registered, therefore the driver bringing the notice missed you It'll be more something like: The lists where I have been in has probably been erased a couple of years ago. If I'm correct I registered my e-mail for info the first time somewhere around june 2002. OK ... I'm also an EVE addict (I didn't know the word "addict" was used a lot on the forum)
Brep	Posted - 2005.12.14 22:08:00 - [43] on a positive note, if things were to take a little longer than expected, atleast we should definately have RMR for the weekend. If they went for the 15th instead and things went wrong, we'd probably be without eve for some or all of the weekend.
Cymru2000	Posted - 2005.12.15 09:28:00 - [44] Originally by: Nosferatu Zodd Originally by: Bahnny Originally by: Nosferatu Zodd It's a real pleasure to see that no one found some real info with dates to prove my wrong. http://myeve.eve-online.com/news.asp?a=single&nid=1022&tid=1 reported by Oveur \| 2005.12.11 17:25:46 I just copy-pasted this out of your linked page: As a closing note, we hope Red Moon Rising passes testing over the next days, enabling a deployment on Thursday the 15th of December. Hmmm ... we hope ... Thursday the 15th of December ... the defence has no more questions So the server goes down 3 1/2 HOURS before they said it would, They still gave 3 days notice which ever way you look at it (or 2 Days and quite a large bit). The question should be, why were you leaving it to the last minute? Most people new the patch would be deployed this week, ive known for over a month and have told my corp what to be doing in the lead up to it. We've all had long skill training since Monday because we expected database issues during the backup before the servers go down. There has been huge hype about this patch for a long long time, and most people knew that it would be deployed around now, its a shame you didnt know, but it's not CCPs fault, they warned us all DAYS ago!
Face Lifter	Posted - 2005.12.15 09:33:00 - [45] This patch was rather sudden. I head 2 estimates from CCP, either this thursday or in 1-2 weeks, something like that. Noone even hinted that it might happen on wednesday Nobody suggested a 24 hour downtime either. There should be 3 days warning so people can set long skill. Or implement a skill queue
Jack Tau	Posted - 2005.12.15 09:40:00 - [46] This patch was very sudden.. I came online last on tuesday night about 10PM, and there was no mention of the patch happening tonight then(It only appeared at midnight). So I went to my grans funeral on wednesday, got back at 7PM to find I only had an hour to fly around and fuel all my POS's and empty there silos. CCP definately dropped the ball here, you can just say your taking a real-time game offline for 24 hours and only give people 20 hours notice!
Ortu Konsinni	Posted - 2005.12.15 09:41:00 - [47] I agree with the OP. I don't have his problem since I have a long skill on anyway, but, while it's true that we pretty much all knew that CCP would do their best to do it this week, I expected it for today (Thursday) as that's what was tentatively announced. I check the news every day and it wasn't until Wednesday that I saw the messages that it was going to happen on Wednesday, not on Thursday. And I know that's not just me. They moved it to one day earlier with a rather short notice. I'm not complaining, but everyone is acting all high and mighty on the OP blahblahblah you're wrong you suck etc. Guess what. He's right. Maybe he should have been more careful and set a long skill training earlier, but he's still right. --- EVE Player Ship Gallery
Digiball	Posted - 2005.12.15 09:54:00 - [48] They said since last month already the 13th. They did it a day later. You had lots of notice.
Cymru2000	Posted - 2005.12.15 09:59:00 - [49] Originally by: Jack Tau ... CCP definately dropped the ball here, you can just say your taking a real-time game offline for 24 hours and only give people 20 hours notice! It was actually 75 hours notice, even though the blog said it would be 78.5 hours. I agree that the wednesday bit should have been mentioned earlier, but according to the post made on Sunday the server was going to be down on Thursday, the fact that it can 3.5hours before it was announced shouldnt have been a problem. I know that not everybody plays eve 23/7 and that some people have actual lives, well these should be the least hit by the DT and should be the last to moan about the patch being moved forward 3.5 hours, afterall they have lives to fall back on, people like me dont :)
MonkeyDrummer	Posted - 2005.12.15 09:59:00 - [50] wow some of you guys are hard to please >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>SIG GALLERY<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Ashmael	Posted - 2005.12.15 10:01:00 - [51] Edited by: Ashmael on 15/12/2005 10:03:05 To be fair they never made any official in game post about when it would take place until yesterday that i have seen. i know lots of people that dont read the forums as all they want to do is play. There should have been and official in game post and kept to that time. doesnt effect me though, still 20 days to go on my skill Still good job by CCP to be on schedule for RMR. FTW Edit: if they did make an earlier official in game post, then big apologies from me.
ChefAce	Posted - 2005.12.15 10:01:00 - [52] Not everyone *****s the forums the way some of us do. -------------
sonofollo	Posted - 2005.12.15 10:02:00 - [53] so a few POSes go offline - when its back up simply refuel (either that or CCP could reset all the POSes to be refueled for 24 hours) doubt it but worth the idea posting
sableye	Posted - 2005.12.15 10:04:00 - [54] I knew about it but I admit it was a little last minute, lucky for most of people I play wth in alliance and large corp so once people knew about it we could'nt shut up :). ORC is recruiting players now !!

Some in game announcement would have been a good idea though for those who don't read the forums.
Brannor McThife	Posted - 2005.12.15 11:16:00 - [56] My newbie alt got a nice email from CCP telling me about the patch and that I should try to set a skill training for at least a day or so...I believe this was sent yesterday morning... ? Perhaps CCP should just blanket email the entire subscriber base... -G
Leandro Salazar	Posted - 2005.12.15 11:19:00 - [57] Edited by: Leandro Salazar on 15/12/2005 11:20:19 The actual date of the patch was announced way too late, especially considering a later date was floating around too (And Thursday the 15th does not imply 00:00 eve time but rather something like 08:00, I doubt that they would start applying a patch at midnight local time. So it was more like 12 hrs early.) CCP definitely is to blame for negligence here. That the patch would come this week though was pretty much common knowledge for at least 1.5 weeks, missing that cannot really be blamed on CCP but only on extremely xenophobic gameplay or something. And if you knew that it would come this week, knew you would be unable to play for a day or two during this week, and did NOT tie up your loose ends before that, you share at least half of the guilt for whatever you lose out on.
Dak Hakin	Posted - 2005.12.15 11:24:00 - [58] Originally by: MonkeyDrummer wow some of you guys are hard to please No kidding! I noticed that it would be on the 15th logging into the game. Regardless, I knew it would be this week, and I have an 8 day skill training right now. _______________________________________________ If you fear the thorn, do not crave the rose Mr. Grumpy-sour-puss.

So it was more like 12 hrs early.) CCP definitely is to blame for negligence here. Now wait a friggin minute here "CCP definitely is to blame for negligence here." WTF Read the damm DEV posts - they tell you the EXACT TIME and in any case - it's too late now 'cos the patching of the servers is half way through (we hope). All you moaning people "its too late", "I wasn't told", "It's too early". For crying out loud (and I'm trying to stay calm here) play the game & pay attention you 's Good job CCP and see the rest of you the other side of the patch. In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move. - Douglas Adams
Nemien	Posted - 2005.12.15 11:33:00 - [60] i dunno about the rest of you, but ive been watching the forums/dev blogs/news for the express purpose of finding out when rmr was supposed to be released. i knew a week in advance it was ESTIMATED for the 15th, if not then january 1st. so stop complaining because you didnt actually take a look to see what was happening.
Macdorek Hackshield	Posted - 2005.12.15 11:34:00 - [61] I heard about it for sure 2 nights ago. I logged out one player to chenge anothers skills and coudn't get back on. It happens. But I knew about it.

Zuki Builder	Posted - 2005.12.15 11:51:00 - [63] It has something to do with wanting to know things and finding out yourself, it's an adult attitude to find out stuff for yourself. Not everything will be handed towards you on a silver plate, YOU have to work for it to find it out! Please people grow up and stop whining about stuff you COULD have known if you'd wanted to!

I didn't even had the time to set another skill. Why the hell can't you inform us a little sooner? wasnt "RMR release in december" not enough ? No serious. Just visiting the eve site provided me enough info that the patch day is/was on the 15th. sorry to hear btw. --------------------------------------------> Iam friendly, Yes i am ! Who wants a beer ? yes its cold . :P
31i73	Posted - 2005.12.15 11:55:00 - [65] Why are everyone so agitated about this? Especially those that think 1d warning time is enough?
