Berneh	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:22:00 - [1] There is no way that at 18:30 the server can be up and running and be all hunky dory at 20:00. We cant even download the patch yet. Why didnt they just rush the patch like usual and end up with about 15hours of downtime ? why set aside 24 hours when everyone knows the servers going to go ** up as soon as 18k people log on at once, and thats AFTER the server giving us the patch goes ** up . Prove me wrong please. Twinkle Twinkle little star , can i macro your veldspar

pshepherd	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:24:00 - [4] CCP realise there has been problems downloading in the past, and i believe they're using another company to help them distribute the patch. ============== This is a sig

Leonidas Rex	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:25:00 - [6] Jesus folks, stop complaining... The game will be patched when they are ready, would you prefer a game with bugs on time, or a game with less bugs slightly behind schedule? And you ask why you cant download the patch? Beacuse they are still fixing the last minute changes to the patch, if you would download the patch ahead of time you would get the patch without the last minute changes and you would STILL have to download it again when it has reached the final state. Just be patient folks, it will be ready once its ready.
Berneh	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:26:00 - [7] If its a finished product when we are able to download it , and there are no server restars needed and no massive petitions, then i'm with you old bean. But that wont happen Twinkle Twinkle little star , can i macro your veldspar
xiphia	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:26:00 - [8] Why do people keep asking the same questions all the time?
BBQ	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:27:00 - [9] Well the server is up, we cannot login though as the patch is not available. Personally it looks like CCP are checking that the servers are correct, the database is working and that it will be ok for us to use when they release the patch and allow people to login. I would be have been worried if the server was still down but its up & the dev's are testing it. << Insert whitty sig here >>

Ly'sol	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:27:00 - [11] If you dont like it quit. They are doing things right the first time which is a lot i can say for many many MMOGs. Being whiney and negetive in this community doesnt fly as it would in other MMOG communities. Keep your whiny attitude to yourself until everything is back online. And also keep in mind that the expansion is free? Where you would have to pay otherwise? So...just...Relax

Brannor McThife	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:37:00 - [29] Edited by: Brannor McThife on 15/12/2005 18:37:40 I have to agree with the OP now... 15+ fixes to something that SHOULD have been ready straight off. Honestly, for any major deployment, you backup the original at some point, rebuild it on a replica system, and test that...you don't take down your live one and test that many fixes on it. I'd like to know why they didn't test this exact cycle on a test environment first. Bugs that the QA guys missed? Why not spend a whole week having them go over the replica build? Rather than taking down the Live one and hoping it'll work. Should have locked up Singularity, and copied Tranquility onto it and do what you're doing today on that...THEN, when you're happy, you do a deployment to LIVE... Someone at CCP needs to go read a book on SDLC. -G
El test0	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:38:00 - [30] Oh, this is most convenient! I'm going to the theater to watch King Kong at 20:10 GMT, and the movie is almost 4 hours long. Means it fits my schedule perfectly.

Ly'sol	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:39:00 - [32] Well this thread is going down the drain...I do apologise if you felt i was insulting you directly, i was issueing a sweeping generalisation towards ISS because several of thier membership have posted in the simalar manner as you have. And like it or not. You do reflect the alliance and you cannt wave that responsiblity by doing so. If you do not want to be associated with ISS while on these boards you need to turn that display off in your settings. So since this thread is going down the drain fast as it was started to get flames....you should have the mods lock it....if not....IBTL

Brannor McThife	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:40:00 - [34] On the whole deployment thing... surely they have a failsafe time? i.e.: If we have not got a stable build by 18H00 GMT on Thursday, we rollback the server and go back to testing the building on Singularity.... After all, they should have a full backup of Tranquility (as per one of the other threads) that they could restore onto Singularity to continue deployment testing on... yes? -G

Karrimdra	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:42:00 - [37] I have a feeling they won't open the server completely anyways, they will open up clusters at a time to prevent a rushed 18k logon. prolly increase it 500-100, 2000, 3000 etc until its fully opened, like has been done previously with big patches. Anyways, you can dl the test patches as they get released if your that bothered, but remember to copy your eve incase it buggers up. From nothing to something in just one corp!

Can't guarantee it, but I can't think of an MMO company that's screwed up that bad...
Empyre	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:43:00 - [39] out of boredom i manually patched my test directory up to 3795. i can select either tranq or sing server with that client and get a valid message back. unfortunately it says the cluster size for tranq is (0) and sing (300)..both of which stay full. someone find a cure for boredom!! ----- my playstyle is anti-pirate. what does this mean? it means you'll never catch me in a valuable ship and/or setup where it can be compromised. go on, trade your ammo for the scraps you'll get.

Zolofine	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:44:00 - [41] Something always goes wrong when TQ needs to get patched... I have never known it any other way. Deadlines are never met, always extended and murphy obviously has a room rented at the CCP server location. The best thing you can do on patch day is simply not even bother trying to play EVE for a day. In this case it was already a day till the deadline so i'd say, come back on friday or saturday and you will prolly save yourself a headache.

Gauliene	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:45:00 - [43] The fact that they haven't made the patch avaliable yet kinda makes me wonder if they are using it as a bottleneck to keep the servers from crapping out as 18k people try to logon at once.
Garreck	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:46:00 - [44] Every patch, there are delays. Every patch there are predictions of doom and ruination. Somehow...Eve is still around, and still a terrific game. Be patient, wait for CCP to get it squared away (I think history is on their side here) and do "something else" for a little while. Or get your blood pressure up because your life is crumbling when Eve is unavailable, I guess. Garreck Aku. Soku. Zan.

Glass gril	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:48:00 - [46] And to think, they said the community in Eve was "more mature than other MMOGS". Judging by this thread...all I can say is: what a joke.
Bartolinjo	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:49:00 - [47] for me its like blablabla blabla blabla and at least blablablabla blubb
imbru	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:49:00 - [48] There are different servers we download the patch from than the line the game runs at.. So, it will take time for everybody to download the patch, but the servers will get a smooth phase to get up and running.

Prove me wrong please. Probably because they are altering the patch at the very last minute from things they are finding out still have issues on the TQ server. They have been altering at the last minute for patches for quite a while. Best not to pay attention to predicted times of when the server will be up. Just check your client log on screen every once in a while to see if the server is live and when the patch is available for download. It is the reason for setting long skills.

Judging by this thread...all I can say is: what a joke. Well all i can say in my defence is that for having just been back about a week since taken a year long break, it's been a pretty ****ty week full of disconnects, server issues... and now the longest patch day ever. So yeah, one does get annoyed if all the ingredients are in place ;-).
Teedo	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:54:00 - [55] Originally by: Glass gril And to think, they said the community in Eve was "more mature than other MMOGS". Judging by this thread...all I can say is: what a joke. The fact that this game community has any maturity at all in it is rather unique. Have you seen the general message boards for some of those other games? I've found (thus far) that the quality of people that play the game generally counterbalances the l33t and the angsty, angry people that one normally perceives in a PvP environment. I like it, which is why I'm playing it now.
Empyre	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:55:00 - [56] this means that even WITH the delay, the servers will come back up an hour and a half before i get home from work! woohoo!

GoleanT'Ar	Posted - 2005.12.15 18:56:00 - [58] SFC listen to you lot! They cant release a client patch until ALL the bugs have been sorted out & it's COMPLETELY compatible with TQ. The whole point of Singularity is to test out new stuff, right it has backups of all the data & should in THEORY work when TQ is patched. But how many of you actually do any programming. THERE IS ALWAYS BUGS TO WORK OUT. And with TQ being the scale it is, can u imagine if an incovenient bug was left in? I'd imagine pretty much 50k+ petitions in the inbox, so no wonder they wanna get it right first time. Hence put in long skill training. Wait until the patch is online, active & most of all WORKING. In the meantime, i'm gonna stare at the login screen.

It might of been less time but just a point If Exdous took less time this patch has then that would mean since this patch is taking 28 hrs then this patch will be better than exdous. No not at all, my point is that if ccp had done what they do every patchday and said "ok we will be down for 4 hours to apply a patch" we would have all said "ok no probs, 10 hours it is" now they said "24hours ....oh now 28 hours and then we still have to wait for people to log on and crash the server" so why not do it the old way ? there was no need at all for the 24hr DT Twinkle Twinkle little star , can i macro your veldspar

MorpheusX	Posted - 2005.12.15 19:10:00 - [70] Berneh: Good humor, manners and less of an "in-your-face" attitude goes a long way to earn respect from the more mature audience. Having said that, you were still right in your "assumptions". Glass girl: If the community wasn't mature you'd be seeing alot of threads with empty threats, alot more whining and alot more of bad/leet spelling/grammar. Eve Online is inexpensive in comparison to other online games (most of which you have to buy off game stores shelves). All of the expansions have been free and will most likely remains so - no SOE-greed going on here. And at least they let us know what is happening, as opposed to other MMOGs. Eve expansions actually have real gameplay changes, not just "add content, stir, make money".

It isnt , its been delayed "We cant even download the patch yet." We still cant. Where did i go wrong exactly ? umm..so when/where did it say "you will definately be able to download the patch earlier than 20:00"? i miss a lot sometimes so it may have gone right past me..correct me if i'm wrong, though.

This patch has alot of fixing of ships, new ships being added and new mods and bps that need seeding. Its alot bigger than most patches were used to. So the 28 hr downtime might be actually needed. Now im not saying I know it all but this is common sense. More content more improvments longer DT

It helps to keep most in the community from screaming for blood. Just to use your example: CCP estimates 10 hours but pushes it to 28 instead of saying 24 hours and having it slip 4 hours to 28 (so far). (note: 10/4 == 2.5 * 24 == 60hours ... the equivalent of your example of 4 hour projection but the 10 hour reality but with a 24hour base instead) If they had done that IÆd be seriously po'ed along with quite a few others IÆm sure. Personally, considering they have acknowledged that this is a very major patch, I'm only going to be po'ed if they slip past 48 hours I can see nothing wrong with giving the community a (hopefully) more accurate estimate on down time for such a major patch. If it slips 4 or 6 hours then they are at least to be applauded for being closer to the mark compared to other patches. And with that there is also the hope that the patch will not suffer the same problems as previous ones since they are taking more care. Patience is a virtue.

T'savong Lah	Posted - 2005.12.15 19:44:00 - [89] Yeah.. ISD Lock this thread. IMO its just flamebait. At the author, would you prefer that we log on, and then have the server crash right away, just when you think all is going well? I'd rather have the patch deployment pushed back and let them have the time to fix the problems and have smooth [albeit delayed] deployment and not have a bazillion messages on here "OMGWTFCCPWHYDIDYOUTAKETHESERVERDOWN?" because they had to launch the patch early to silence whiners like you. Would you kindly go do something else in the mean time. When CCP deems the patch playable by all, they will launch the damn thing. No amount of whining from you is going to speed that process up. Got it? Great.
