Greetings test pilots,
Singularity is going offline for the weekend! As of some time this afternoon, we will be taking it down and running some database scripts to prepare for the first build of what will become the Industry release of Crius. We would like to thank you for all your diligent and forthright issue reporting and feedback over the Kronos release ramp-up, which resulted in one of the smoothest deployments and fallout periods in recent memory. Please note that the extended downtime of Sisi in no way reflects the downtime we will expect when Crius launches on TQ.
Some inevitable FAQs:
Will there be a new mirror?
Yes there will, but we are not sure of the exact timing of it yet. It is likely to occur in the next few weeks though, and given the nature of mirroring, we will be broadcasting it with as much lead time as possible.
Will you be giving out Industry skills?
We have no plans to give out skills at this time. Due to the nature of the changes, giving everyone level V in skills would definitely lessen the testing imprint we are hoping to get. That being said, at some point in development this may change. Mass tests will run as usual and SP will be awarded through them.
Will there be any changes to the market seeding?
No changes are planned to the market seeding for this Sisi rotation.
Will there be a place to see what's on Sisi?
A forum thread will go up on Tuesday next week (10th June) with all the pertinent details, and will be updated if/when more stuff hits the server, as well as broadcasting comm.
Thanks,
Goliath

Instead of giving people level 5 skills, what about the option of level 3 skills for guys like me who did not feel like manufacturing/researching/etc was worth training into [based on the current setup]?
It runs into the same issue of everyone testing the same thing, so we don't get a spread. If we offered this, noone would test very low level stuff, which is also very important.

how exactly do you plan to reflect that on SiSi ?
The job cost calculations on this first round of testing will not be accurate for the reasons you mention.
We will do a mirror in a couple of weeks with activity calculated from TQ data which will be a decent starting point and an indication of what pricing will look like day 1 on TQ.
However the material / time / skill calculations etc will be accurate so we can get testing on all of that underway next week.

Theon Severasse wrote:It seems very shortsighted to shut the server down over the weekend IMO.
With AT coming up, many teams are going to be wanting to start to practice, and given that most people have weekends off it's quite easy to coordinate times (given that people live in different timezones).
Not to mention the fact that all the ships that have been put together for practicing will then get wiped.
The sooner Duality can be released the better.
Yes we know it is bad timing, but we have some long running database prep work to do before we can bring it back up and obviously testing releases takes priority over tournament practice.
We will not be wiping anything when it comes back on Tuesday, however you can expect a wipe in around 2 weeks time.
EDIT: Practice server IS being setup but it won't be ready this weekend unfortunately

APIs + SDE are still being worked on but we will have more information on that next week hopefully.

I have a question that could use clearing up, as I'm sure some others have wondered this as well. Your June 10th or US June 10th? Since I know you guys live over seas, so technically speaking it is June 10th there but June 9th here in the US. Just wanna get that cleared that up
We obviously don't update the server at midnight our time, so yeah, it'll be June 10th basically everywhere

Neo Hutt wrote:Hey CCP, can we get a working solution for those unable to connect due the "account expired & launcher need updates" error?
I am confident the team will be working on this at the moment, and will follow up with them to ensure a solution is found. Can I verify that the following steps, or a very close approximation, are being tried?
1. Copy existing TQ install into new folder called Sisi
2. Create desktop shortcut to eve.exe (located in Sisi folder)
3. Right click on shortcut, in box "Target" append /server:Singularity to the path (with a space in between the last " and /)
4. Double click on the shortcut, observe launcher opens with Server: Singularity in the top left.

I have done it and right now nothing has changed when I try to login. I get the account expired AND the wrong version window when I try to login. (I made sure my account got reactivated shortly before Kronos hit the servers, so that one should still be active).
Thanks dude, whenever I see "activation" in a thread title I instantly gloss over it. Bad habit (at least 1% of the time).

Hi,
I found out that a huge bunch of accounts got deactivated on Singularity by accident in the last few days. 
Please post in this thread if your account is deactivated and you want to login. I'll try to process the requests as soon as possible.
