Aye, unplayable with 1gb RAM. Moving is hard enough like this, jumping is just impossible.
This gets fixed soon or I'm gone.

I will be honest (not that anyone cares so ) but I was getting kinda bored before RMR... new content is nice if you are able to play it but... This is really putting me off..
Meh, will give it a week or so.. I actually found after 2 years on EVE other really nice games to play while I was waiting to jump through systems.. I even went and made my dinner while waiting to change skill 
Anyway, it is patch week... I am sure it will be resolved so people can play over XMas. Good luck CCP.. We love you really!!!!!

Aside from some minimal lag (right clicking in station with 80+ items selected), I'm having no problems.

stop whining, yes theres lag, yes its annoying... but eve's heading for 21k users, they're working hard on improving things and they can only work on some many issues at the same time!
hopefully the new hardware (if you read the news as you login) will take off some of the strain...
Patience... we are all suffering with the lag but it's not like the dev's are sitting around doing nothing, they are doing the best they can... AND MORE!!!
Until then, prove your an adult and show some patience and gratitude!

Its very much playable with only a tiny bit of lag in the systems i'm doing missions in.
I had to go through rens for one for storyline mission and with 300 people in local chat it took a while to get through, had to laugh at the people complaining about lag in local it rens though.

as it has bin pointed many times now the lag is not game wide nor is it to do with how many people are in the system muppet if its ok for you good one, nice, cool. for some of us its unplayable

Well I am sooooo happy that some of you appear to have no issues or lag whatsoever. Consider yourself fortunate. I just got both my battleships hung in limbo. Could not man guns, boosters or any other module on the ships. Selected to warp out with both ships and they just sat there taking damage. They finally made it out but not before both ships were halfway through the hull hit points. So pardon me candy arses while I do indeed flame about what is going on in the new patch. It sucks. It is a piece of crap and is absolutely unplayable for many of us who are not as fortunate as these wonderful kiss ass ccp sympathizers. I would like to point out that we pay to play just like the kiss ass ccp sympathizers do and feel that we should be able to play free of lag just as they do. How about giving the kiss ass ccp sympathizers my lag for the next 4 days like I have had for the last 4 days and let me see how rosy they feel about the new patch.

Edited by: Gnobe on 18/12/2005 21:38:39 In my opinion, no dedicated was ever meant to hold 20,000 players at one given time, imagine the bandwith usage.
But this is getting rather pointless i'm trying to do a mission here and i can't even move to do it. (Plus i'm about to loose a cargo needed for the mission due to lag =/)

I'm currently in gallante space lagging around; with 9 EW mods attached to my tempest (yes; 9.. it loaded up the new ones; didn't unload the old ones.. and yes all useable.. ) Meanwhile I still have the station HUD I undocked with and can drop items in my hangar.. I'm 6 jumps away.
Takes 20 minutes to even lag in. 20k users.. w/e .. just get 15k on that can actually play the game.
If your looking for some good numbers; try 7-12..
7-12fps while in a mission using my weapons; P4; geforce 6800ultra O/C Bfg technologies 512meg vram; 1gig corsair XMS ram. reinstalled the card.. no change.. updated drivers; reinstalled directx .. no change.
Battlefield2, doom3 run at 78+ fps.
Eve doesn't run above 10 in combat. what's the deal; this has only been post rmr.

20K+ ppl on-line and the game reached saturation point.
Two accounts at either end of the Galaxy, both on separate computers, both impossibly laggy. So lagged jumping between gates that the game was warping the ship out to 1M km mark because it thought I had logged off!
I'm not whining. Just stating facts. I look forward to the resolution of these problems and the restoration of my enjoyable gaming environment. In the mean-time, I'll go find a book to read.

Edited by: Jonis Sinmaker on 18/12/2005 21:54:54 I just hope CCP fixes this soon.....I just lost my ship jumping thru a gate and I couldn't even right click or activate autopilot to warp away and damn gate rats took me out....plus you got the guys camping gates taking atvantage of the lag. This is just rediculious. I see people saying quit whining, screw that. I have been playing since this game was in beta testing and this is one of the worse patch releases I have seen. I wish they would have waited to release and got all the bugs out. I would rather wait then deal with this many bugs and this much lag. Hell I can't even jump thru a gate without waiting 10 minutes and then I loose my ship....again where was the QA for this. Semper Fi, Jonis-

Please consider it real hard as I dont think it make a good impression to a noob if he sees that mess of lag
The good part is .. that some part of the university works .. and the market works :)
I have shut down the AUDIO now .. and think I got some extra speed out of it :)

Actually those who can play are and those who can't are waiting for the server to loose some of the lag so they can. There is like 15 players sitting in a station in syndicate region just waiting for the lag that has blanketed over that region to pass....it's like huge lag spikes....one minute it's fine and then a second later everything lags worse then jumping into a 150 man fleet with drones drones dropped

this really needs sorting out now been going on long enough and those ppl who are whining that people are whining then get lost, i pay a subscription like all others and if they are not getting what they paid for then they have a right to whine full stop. CCP need to stop hanging on to this 'most concurrent users in the world' crap and stop trying to look good. if WoW can do it with millions of users (yes literally) then im sure CCP can with 20000 concurrent users, damn they have aroudn 70000 subs paying a tenner a month, damn thats ú700k a month ffs, so please dont tell me they cant afford to get the hardware sorted, or pay for extra developers to sort any software issues out, im also ****ed off cause ive lost 15 skills just like that, stuff like second level learning etc!! and other stuff since this upgrade. this performance issue was going on BEFORE RMR was installed.

Just thought I would point out that there are only about 2000 trial accounts online at PEAK HOURS, any trial user can check this by reading the page that is brought up whenever they log in. This page also states that the cluster will not allow more than 3000 trial accounts to log in at any one time. So of the 20k users online right now, only 2100 of them are trial accounts, the other 18,000 are paid accounts! So people please, I'm willing to bet that none of you are educated in distributed systems or anything like that, so stop blaming trial accounts for all of your problems and try reading the dev blogs which clearly point out the reasons for the lag problems in some nodes.

A large number of people who are 'stuck' as you describe are going to figure out that the lag won't magically disappear if they just sit there. So they'll log out and go do something else for a while.
I'm sorry you're lagging. I haven't had any new lag since RMR launched. The area around Ours is about as laggy for me as pre-patch, and the rest of the game is lag-free for me.

im not blaming trial but suggesting to halt them in times of upgrade until everything is ok. are you a politician you seem to talk a lot of ****e
lol if just logged back into eve and only 18k users online and the lag is now exceptible for me so with your figures im right ...drop the trial accounts

Dariel Ignitious ... I cant justify the information you were given were is it stated that only 3000 Trialaccount are allowed at any given time ?
Are you an Alt of a Gamemaster or where did you get that Information about 2100 Trial Accounts are logged it ....
and if that ist true ... 20.000 logged it , 2100 Trials ... 10% Noobs starting in STARTER Systems and that is alot to get that lag
fly through jita or isanamo and tell me that there is no lag ;)

You do seem to care how many people are online otherwise you wouldn't be asking for CCP to stop trial accounts from loggin in.
Please elaborate on how you found out that stopping trial account characters from logging in will improve performance in the few places where it is really bad now btw. I'd love to know, and I bet CCP would be interested too.

Well I am glad you are lag free....but there are many who aren't...and to who ever said it was on the client's end....I don't think this many people would all be having the same issue on their client side. Obviously this is server side issue....if you are not experiencing the issue then don't post in here....let us vent since we can't play the game we PAY to play we gotta do something.

There aren't very many of them, most of EVE is running fine.
Just for a couple of days consider sucking up to another agent.
I feel for the small minority that are having issue's, but sitting in a problem system crying about it helps no one, including yourself.

From the bottom of my heart, I truely appreciate being allowed to be a customer, thank you!"
Or as an adult do you complain to management, and express your disatisfaction with the service you recieved.
Whether youre a fan boy or not, theres 1 thing bigger than CCP, theres one thing more important than Tombs nerfbat, theres something more pink than eris...
We are customers, and as such, reserve the right to complain when service does not reach satisfactory levels.

I always hate these posts.
We pay for the game. I don't feel that when I pay for something I need to be grateful that it sort of works. In any game I expect to get what I pay for.
That being said, I haven't experienced much lag. It's unfortunate that the downtime had to happen over the weekend, but I'll survive. I really do love this game, and since I can just select a long skill and play CIV IV while I wait I don't really mind the minor inconvenience.
EVE is the most perfect game in terms of downtime. So long as you know the DT is coming you can mitigate the inconvenience by selecting a long skill. No other game I've played has been designed so well in this regards.

Me and my wife operate in a 0.0 system, in a region thats extremely quiet, often its just me and her in the system, we are getting lag just as bad there, in fact I went to Rens earlier to buy some stuff and the lag was actualy better there than our little empty 0.0 system :)
Not moaning though, it'll right itself in the end (hopefully) just pointing out that the lag isnt just in high population areas :)

There aren't very many of them, most of EVE is running fine.
Just for a couple of days consider sucking up to another agent.

What's probably happening is your uncrowded system is being handled by the same server that is also handling a crowded system. Or there's a ton of uncrowded systems on that CPU.

***** are you retarded?
I, along with many others are telling you that we cannot log in, we cannot play.
Are we lying, for ****s and giggles?
Are YOU retarded?
If all 20k players was unable to play, they WOULD all log out. Then they would swamp the forums and ***** and moan like you are doing now. Obviously, there is not 500 threads whining about lag with 20k posts in them, so please SHUT THE **** UP.
CCP is working on it, you wasting their bandwidth with your retardation is doing nothing but lowering the collective intelligence of everyone that reads it.

Been operating two accounts, in gangs of 5-15 people, setting up bubbles and fighting with drone ships.
Lag? Yep, maybe a full half second or so, not counting one random system we had to pass through.
Some nodes are worse than others, and all the people who refuse to leave Jita and Oursulaert to do missions, and then come here to complain, they simply have no restraint.
Go to a quieter system with a nice agent.
As for the people who claim to be out in 0.0, with no one else around, and still having lag... well, that is, no sarcasm, too bad. I haven't had significant problems besides the reboots.
Everyone come on up to Pureblind, it's fast enough to mash your function keys and have things explode.

The kneepad warriors need to shut their cakeholes.
Last time I logged in it was laggy as hell in a deserted system.
How are they supposed to know there's a problem if nobody complains? You could have %10 of your customers lagging out, unless you got hundreds of people whining about it on the boards, you wouldn't know there was a problem.
Whoever said the community here had a high IQ was on drugs, some of you are dumber than the average wow-player. "Be grateful?" Excuse me, when you come to my house and give me free head I'll be grateful, until then I'll expect snappy server performance.
If you think I'm doing the game a disservice then you know nothing about business.
Things get built and invented out of necessity, not by having a bunch of complacent COWS for customers.

Lag started for me about 19:00 GMT, just as the first people in chat started to talk about "over 20k". Lag varied between 10 second to near 1 minute. It was pointless to continue so I did my part to reduce lag - logged out.
I doubt this has anything to do with CPU. Its most likely a revisit of the pre-solid-state problems. Queued database commands because of I/O limitations.

Of course, as an adult, you would also read the public statements of the company pertaining to the problems you are having with their service. You would see that they are admitting there are problems, and detailing their plans to solve them, and the expectecd timescale of the solution. Then, as an adult, you have a decision to make. You can either continue to use the service with the known problems, or you can cease to do so, at least until the planned and advertised improvements have been made.
Continuing to complain about the problem is not going to bring the expected timescale for the solution forward even 1 minute.

Yes, a good suggestion. Places to look would be here, here, here, here and here. Oh, and here

just a quick question! since friday i had times of lag, times of no lag at all and times of lag occuring in stations only.
is this happening for the whole community at the same time or are these the results of server resources being shifted? any way to predict this to lets say avoid fleet battles in a certain area for a certain time?
all in all i'm impressed with RMR and i think one of the BIG problems CCP got with every patch is that you simply can NOT test what 19 or now 20k ppl storming the new builds will do exactly... _________________________________ just because you are not paranoid doesn't mean i'm not following!

Ive have had periods where i suffered lag / times when i didnt. Ive had time when its frustraighted me and time when i look at all the new stuff and i feel great. But im mature enough to know that there isnt a game out there like this in the world, its cutting edge and everythign with all cutting edge thing come snags and problems. CCP are obviously aware of the problems and im happy with the improvements threy are making and untill then i will play when the times are good and not when i cant. Yes its not perfect but i know CCP will get ontop of it.
The one thing i do have to add is- is all the critism and flaming constructive? So far i havent read 1 constuctive post here. If you want to help get the game sorted send valid patitions reporting valid bugs - this way it will help ccp sort out the problems faster. These guy are only human and as far as i can seer doign there very best. How would you like to turn up to work and have 1000 email saying your rubbish when you have been working you a*s off to get the game going.
They know there are problems - they know your all unhappy. Lets stop the unconstuctive posts now and see if we can help them out instead of making there jobs harder

Hi,
I had some lag, 2 accounts running 1 lagging the other not, prob due to them being on different servers one with less demand than the other.
This happened around the 20k player mark, if they servers can't handle the load or the pipes can't, then either cap the max players ! "People will not be happy finding out that they can't log in when they pay for a service" or "Take away trial accounts as the system clearly can't handle the load that its got now never mind anymore".
people out there with no lag then your lucky but that doesn't mean it isn't around so don't mock other people letting CCP know there are issues.

Constructive critisicm is good! Unfortunately a lot of posts here on the General Discussion board have turned into 'OMGWTF Whine-a-thons'.
I honestly don't think the performance issues last night were solely connected to us hitting the 20K mark. I was experiencing login problems and slow UI response earlier in the day also when there were just 15K-17K of users on. I think it's more a case of there being generally more 'active' users logged in trying out new features etc. and it's taking a performance hit on the system.
I have every confidence that the guys at CCP will iron these performance issues out in due time. In the meantime we all have to keep sending in informative feedback (ie. not OMG-LAAAAG!) and plan ahead with the expectation of further unscheduled downtime.

Originally by: Istilly All you muppets that can play are in the minority.
So shut your traps. CCP has got its work cut out.
This is UNPLAYABLE.
Why? Just as you complain about the lagg you have we who can play EVE without any lag has all rights to say what feel about it!
I'm running two accounts and both of them worked perfectly yesterday when over 20k users were online, so I don't agree with you at all.

It's node-dependant. A lot of people might be connecting to the same node, and so it's producing a fair bit of lag. Also if you're in a location, like Jita, and the node is already filled with a fair bit of .. well everything, it's going to be working hard to get all the relivant information to you, aswell as other people in other important systems.
Just wait it out, I know you pay for a service and what-not. But CCP do genuinly love this game, and they won't leave it like this. They're even spending millions of dollars on new hardware just for us. They don't love the money they get, that's just the bonus...
Have faith in CCP, and just try to live in another system for a bit, were there's not so much traffic. Hell, come down to HM-UVD, I'll rat with you or something...

Yeah we've had some lag, cost us a few ships in fights where we've had to jump in, some systems in 0.0 have been like 10 min activation times, it happens and is depndant on the node. CCP are doing their best and it's appreciated.
