Last night had a horrible amount of lag no matter what system you were in. I was surprised when everything seemed fine again today. So I've been playing as usual.
It's now 9:30 p.m. Central Standard Time in the U.S., and the lag just got bad again.
This is not a "too many people on the server" thing. This happens no matter what system you're in. And this has been happening since the recent patch.
This lag is very frustrating. What's even more frustrating is that the developers are doing nothing to keep us updated as to what's going on and when we can expect it to be fixed. Every other game I've played has been pretty quick about posting server issues. Eve Online says nothing until AFTER they fix it. This is really irresponsible of them.
Understand I'm not posting a flame here. Just asking for some respect. I understand the developers are probably under a lot of pressure, but keeping us in the dark about it just makes it worse. Help us out here, guys.

I just logged in again to try and play again. I've been trying to play from 2 a.m. to 3 a.m. Central Standard Time in the U.S. It seems like the lag is getting progressively worse.

With a slightly different choice of wording, I agree with Toxicon. During play 20:00 (+10 GMT), I got stuck jumping from Haatomo to Suroken. I logged out after waiting 4 minutes, and I have not been able to log on since. I get to "Entering game as Gythar", the bar is at 100% and it sits there.
Until now, I have not suffered from lag, but now I can see whay people are complaining.
I'm sure that you (CCP) are looking into this matter, amongst many others, but can you please give the players some feedback on what is happening, even if it's just "We don't know yet...."
Apart from that, it's a great game and I can't wait to get back to it.
Thanks,

the patch will hopefully fix the problems. i dont believe hardware has anything to do with the lag at the moment. all that needs fixing is the server ANd client software.
oursulaert could handle 300 people before, now 30 kills systems. rmr did not introduce enough content to increase lag x10. fewer drones etc low priority stacking and cargo movement etc.
something is very flawed with the program. i am sure it will be fixed with jan 10 patch.
one very annoying trend is the silence of CCP. there has been around 200 threads in this folder without a single word from a dev. a few words here and there would be good.

Its called disrespect to the customers, eg US..
Most ppl are very happy if someone just told them what was going on and when its supposed to be fixed but when they just say NOTHING... thats disrepect whatever ppl say.

Perhaps you should read the Dev Blogs then? While in mid-December, it does explain what they are doing, quite well if you ask me. I'm sure you can understand that something like this doesn't exactly happen over night.
Now, start training a long skill and go back to bed. We'll call you when the lag is gone. Or we'll take your stuff, whichever you prefer.

I dont think this is the issue. This is a problem that has only been affecting us in the past 2 or 3 days. Many of you that are replying to these lag posts might not be experiencing the HUGE amounts of lag we're talking about. Please understand that this is not a "little laggy". It's CRIPPLING. Enough for you to not be able to play. These posts you referred us to are from early November and December. Although it seems like it may apply to this situation, we do not know this.
This is what I'm addressing. They are not saying ANYTHING about what has been happening in the last few days. This is a new occurancee and it's our right to just be notified of what changes have taken place recently. Even just "we are aware of the new lag that we have been experiencing in the last few days since the new patch and are taking measures to fix this".
These dev posts also do not apply since this huge amount of lag is happening even when there are only 10k concurrent users. This would make sense if it was happening when they were maxed out.

"Might not be experiencing..." eh? I've been saving up for a Ferox or Prophecy Battlecruiser for the last two weeks. Have I got my ship yet? No. Why? Not 'cause the asteroid fields I've been mining are being stripped before I get there, no sir. Because I can't play through the lag.
Do you know what I am doing about it? I got a grab bag of random useful skills, and started training them. Getting a useful skill that I never thought to get before because I was too busy training "major" skills, and skilling it up to the point where I can train it and walk away for a couple days is quite useful. I don't go on forums and complain about it, making CCP's job that much harder, as they have to deal with unnecessary forum spam.
Now, I admit, this idea of skilling up is primarily useful to new players, but you oldbies I'm sure have a few skills you'd love to skill up but don't have the time. Start training and walk away for a bit. Take a breather. Take a vacation. Take a long walk off a short pier, I don't care. That's the joy of this game. You're still improving yourself, even when you're not playing.

Take a break? I did take a break. I quit the game a while back after only playing a month. I came back a week ago and found some fun aspects to the game. For only being back a week, I have a right to complain. I spent money on a month of gameplay. I'm not paying them so I can log off and pay for a skill to take 32 days to train.
Don't defend them for having issues that need to be resolved. If this happens long enough, I will suspend my account again until they get it fixed. And this means they are losing players and money. Without players and money, they dont have a company.
No, I won't "just log off and learn a skill". That's not the point of paying for a subscription. To log off? I have better things to do with my money.

I've been having the same problem, actually. I log on, then begin warping to my last known "Good" location. The moment I come out of warp, i'm stuck. Can't move, dock, warp, anything. 3 seconds later, and the game times out and disconnects. I'm located in Germany, so the connection should technically be better than in the US, but to no avail.

Simple, if they post about what they are 'planning' to do, a lot of people are going to see this as a 'promise' of a effective solution. And then, after they f*ck it up again, people will start going 'But you promised!'... I'll see an effective solution before I believe it, and my faith in CCP... Well, let's say it's not exactly stellar (forgive the pun) right now...

Look guys - Give CCP a break. I am a software developer for something a little smaller than Eve and I know how stressful that can be.
Before you moan just remember that 20 000 users using the same game database is not just exceptional, it is entirely unheard of... all the other MMOGS have max of 500-700 players... halflife lags with more than 20 odd players.
And another thing... bugs - ok they suck, but do you think CCP likes them or something... the programmer responcible for a***** up feels wretched in his stomache - it is nasty knowing you are responcible for such a thing. Don't forget that most programmers are passionate living breathing people (often more intelligent than the masses) they hurt and bleed too.
CCP are darned good - it's just that they do a really difficult job. I doubt you could do any better.

Dear Vendrin,
You simply must be an American. Xenophobic, isolationist, homophobic, ignorant, crass, no class, rude and way too far up your own ar*e.
You're in the CIA aren't you? Go on, admit it.

Skilling up is not an option... or rather it is, but it's a stupid one. I just started playing this game in the last month. I have plenty of skills that I could (and am) training up. However, I am not paying this company so I can log in every few hours/days and start learning a new skill. I am paying this company so that I can play the game and in it's current state (meaning the last 3 days or so) that isn't possible.
The EVE servers are in a terrible state. I have had to flee several combats that I should have won because my weapons WON'T FIRE. Instead I get a message that says 'That module is being activated' and I fly in circles getting holes shot in my *** while waiting for my missiles and guns to do their thing. You can't win a fight when every time you kill one pirate it takes up to 2 minutes to reactivate your weapons on the next target.

WHAT HAVE I DONE?!? I hoped to spread peace and love but I have increased the ******'s tenfold!
Oh well.
Anyway to make my point stronger I quote the news today...
"updated: new patch deployed - happy dev petition day tomorrow reported by Oveur | 2006.01.10 13:44:21 | NEW The new patch was deployed to Tranquility in this downtime, focusing on fixing a number of client and server issues. However, a big mistake with agent locations got out to Tranquility, which moved the previously moved agents back to their original high-traffic solar systems.

You gotta feel sorry for the dude that did this... If you are reading this one boss, just go up to him and tell him it's ok. 'it happens etc and take the afternoon off for a few pints of lager... NO JOB IS WORTH THIS STRESS.
