Hey guys,

We're going to extend daily downtime today in order to perform some check and maintenance on Tranquility and ensure everything is in good order.

Sorry for any inconvenience this might cause.

Tranquility will be offline at the usual time of 11:00 UTC, and will return to service at 12:00 UTC.

CCP Falcon || Community Manager || @CCP_Falcon

Happy Birthday To FAWLTY7! <3

I'd rather have a few days of extended daily downtime than to have it go down and be out for a few days straight at a time... EVERY time there is an update to the game.

Thank you, CCP Falcon.

The EULA clearly says:

"CCP does not warrant that the operation of the System or your access to the System, or that your use of the Software, will be uninterrupted or error-free, nor that the System or Software will be compatible with your hardware and software."

Since we all agreed to that, we cannot demand compensation.

If they choose to give us some I would not object however ;)

It is hilarious to see all the people asking for free skillpoints

If in this land of super long skillqueues, you managed to lose skill training time, it is your own fault. if not, why on earth would they give skillpoints out. you haven't lost them, does it suck, yeah it does, I'm in AU and it blows.

But if they need to do it, then go right on ahead

How much more would you howl if they didn't and TQ was down for a week due to something they could have fixed in an extended downtime

You want compensation because they work on server stability, for YOUR sake, and because you have lost a couple of hours of gaming opportunity??
Seems legit....

Just calm down dude, they havent done anything bad enough to warrent a compensation.

Technically speaking, there are no gaps, you keep training while this goes on, however some compentsation would be nice, as this is prime time for AUS, and by the looks of it a lot of people only have this time to play, kinda a kill joy, i would prefer them shut it down for a whole day and fix it, rather then giving the finger to Australia all the time..

Paul Edgecomb: An execution. A successful one.

Hal: How in the name of Christ can you call that a success?

Paul Edgecomb: Eduard Delacroix is dead.

Just because something doesn't seem like a success, that doesn't mean that the initial goal was not met.

Damn after coming close to being out of time on a couple of contracts for all these extended DTs I logged to make this exact point. Someone fetcch an aircraft carrier, a flight suit and make a "Tiamat Accomplished" sign.

It was kinda annoying to see the successful deployment notice right under the extended DT notice.

As far as the DT guessing comp goes I say servers come back EVE 14:00.....

Get in a different time zone? :p



4th day in a row and all occur in the prime time of one segment of your playerbase (Oceania).. My guess is that if you did it at 19-22:00 EvE time you would have a HUGE backlash against you.. Instead of segmenting things against one minority group of players how about you reschedule your down time to something like 05:00 EvE where no where near as many players are on from any particular time zone.

Bout time you did a bit of a rethink on what you are doing and what time zones you disadvantage before you lose even more respect from the playerbase. Just saying 'Sorry about that' is not enough!

Depends on what you are used to, if for example the people here are going to work on improving my nuts services (water/electrics/gas or witch ever other rented service), the dont compensate for the lost time either you just get a notice about when it happens and how you can deal with not having water for nearly 24h. Why would people expect this is different for a video game that only cost a margin of what normal services cost in RL ?

So.. CCP.. I am not asking for compensation for the DT.. But i just had a call from the crazy Ex girlfriend, and that went well.. you know why i picked up the call? Cause i wasn't playing EVE.. Which meant i wasn't distracted and didnt check called ID.. So that was fun.. I wouldn't mind training up my "Dealing with the ***** again* to level V please :)

11am DT is mainly for refreshing asteroid belts, otherwise there would be nothing to mine anymore, and i like that they do it like this and dont mess about with 8 hour downtimes like wow did, you should all be happy with the service you get and fact there is no lag issues on server really, be appreciative of what you get and don't complain when they try to make your life better.

You want compensation because they work on server stability, for YOUR sake, and because you have lost a couple of hours of gaming opportunity??

So.... I dont quite get your comparison, but thats irrelevant.
I never said it was "perfect how it happens", im saying stop crying, it wont help, it wont get the server back online.

Running a giant mainframe like CCP does, is no joke and is very complicated.
People complaining about extended downtime, to try and fix stability issues, are a class a example of "I know nothing, but i sure as hell am not gonna admit it" douchebags imho.

Things break, especially software, and especially when you keep updating it and changing the code.
Deal with it, theres nothing we can do about it, and its not really gotten to the point where its "gamebreaking" yet. We are talking a few hours more downtime, over a couple of days.

If you cant live with that, im afraid you might have bigger issues then you care to admit.

I just want to show my support of CCP and all their hard work. Compared to other games I've played, downtime in EVE is actually quite little and on the occasions, like now, when there is a bit more, it's not a big deal. I know they are working hard to fix any problems and make the game a great experience for us all. Thanks guys for all your hard work and for wading through the crap load of whine!

Better then the bad old days. The server would crash, you would wait and wait then it would be up for a while then crash again.
Better yet when they would push a patch or an update the call of the day would be hope you have a long skill training! Now with the skill que whats to worry? kick back and be glad these arent the bad old daysLol

Fully understand both sides of this. Yes there is important maintenance I'm sure and we would all like a little downtime rather than hours or days.

However, saying that, there should be a little compensation for it being four days in a row now. Maybe some isk? Maybe another ingame item (one that isn't a useless one).

again extended downtime, yes we should be compensated but most likely we won't, at this point I just hope that we can logon at 13.00 hrs and that tomorrow there is a normal downtime.. altough Big smile seems the extended downtime is starting to be normal.

If it will takes longer then 13.00 hrs I suggest for those who needs the fix of adiction to logon to the test server, make a new character and test the new player experience.

the more we test the less bugs we get so less extended downtime.

Hope CCP is doing the best they can to fix issues and not sit with a coffee reading a lot of moaning about this and have a laugh.

It's just amusing reading this thread, thoroughly entertained.

On a more serious note, how many days do we live over the course of an average human life span? How many times as we get old do we say how quickly the time goes? How often do we think what did I do a couple of weeks ago and drag the memories up?

Get over the DT, this week eill be over before you know it, then the next one, then the month will be over, then the year, and so on until it all snowballs into a memory of what once happened however long ago.

You have more to worry about in your lives than the Downtime in a computer game, whether that is from the perspective of defending the game developers or being upset about not playing, in all seriousness, learn a skill, get a real life hobby, hell just go for a walk and enjoy the world you live in.

The EULA clearly says:

"CCP does not warrant that the operation of the System or your access to the System, or that your use of the Software, will be uninterrupted or error-free, nor that the System or Software will be compatible with your hardware and software."

Since we all agreed to that, we cannot demand compensation.

If they choose to give us some I would not object however ;)


As if anyone ever read those things... Besides we are not demanding, we are just saying PWEEEEES P

But if they need to do it, then go right on ahead

I think maybe you need to rethink. You're right it's primetime for a selected few, would you rather have it spent on somebody else's primetime? Bit egocentric isn't it?

The EULA clearly says:

Since we all agreed to that, we cannot demand compensation.

If they choose to give us some I would not object however ;)


Even if they say that, where i come from that says nothing. Local law > EULA, simple as that. and they know it.

If in this land of super long skillqueues, you managed to lose skill training time, it is your own fault. if not, why on earth would they give skillpoints out. you haven't lost them, does it suck, yeah it does, I'm in AU and it blows.

But if they need to do it, then go right on ahead

How much more would you howl if they didn't and TQ was down for a week due to something they could have fixed in an extended downtime

4 days of extended DT in a row. It doesn't look like a coincidence anymore.
At this rate extending all players subscription by 1 should be a reasonable compensation.

Just to be precise, according to EU laws EULEA is not a legal legit agreement, so if some EU citizen will be so proud (and rich) to sue CCP in fron of some EU court, CCP will have to compensate all EU players...

Get in a different time zone? :p



4th day in a row and all occur in the prime time of one segment of your playerbase (Oceania).. My guess is that if you did it at 19-22:00 EvE time you would have a HUGE backlash against you.. Instead of segmenting things against one minority group of players how about you reschedule your down time to something like 05:00 EvE where no where near as many players are on from any particular time zone.

Bout time you did a bit of a rethink on what you are doing and what time zones you disadvantage before you lose even more respect from the playerbase. Just saying 'Sorry about that' is not enough!



That would mean they have to wake up at 3-4 to start working on server at 5^^ you do know that wont happen right ^^

good that this time they managed to tell us with 30 secs before down time that they will be an extended one.. the other day was off for 3hours with no warning at all.

All these australians moaning about the downtime.

I would just like to state; it's 45 minutes extra. It's not exactly mind blowing.

I used to play other MMO's that were hosted on American servers, and their downtimes would be around the same time for me (UK), because their server was American. If you wanted it to go down during AUS night time, then the EU would suffer. Went down during EU night, US would suffer, and so the cycle continues.

And, think of the poor employees. Getting a call, being told that they have to come in at 1am in Iceland just to cater to your needs.

Nice only cutting the parts you can use, haha! Not using RL excuses, just saying that THIS is AUS TZ prime time, so how about you shut up, and this isn't your game, nor are these your servers, so don't say its not "our" fault, bloody child


I think maybe you need to rethink. You're right it's primetime for a selected few, would you rather have it spent on somebody else's primetime? Bit egocentric isn't it?


No, i actually believe it should be moved around, so like week 1 - US, week 2 - EU, week 3 - AU, week 4 - South America

That would be better for everyone i think.. Hard to completely redo ill admit, but you wouldn't like it if all this happened during your only time to play..

Braiding Leather

Might help you stay amused...

Alternatively you can:

Read a book
Watch a TV Show
Do some house work
Spend time with a loved one
Read a magazine
Look at the stars

The rest I'll leave to your imagination.

I love how the community are so ignorant they believe things can be fixed by a simple switch and believe they know all the reasons to every problem but treat the staff at CCP as monkeys with no brains that just fling poop around the office.

Okay people what would you like and you have 2 options
Extended downtime to try and fix current bugs and glitches with the system?
Ignore the problem for convenience sake of everyone else and have those bugs and glitches cause more problems down the line?

I for one pick optional number 1 Because at the end of the day nothing is more worst then flying a ship worth 500mil+ to loose it to a bug or glitch in game.

Now for all the people demanding refunds you people are the biggest problem to any company and you really need to stop it I don't mind people asking for some form of compensation via mail/ticket directly to CCP because that's the polite way of hinting to a company your unhappy the people mean the people who throw a tantrum because something doesn't go there way because unfortunately things brake and have to demand people boycott or accuse CCP for braking a law to sue them by.

If CCP believe things are worthy of some form of compensation they would gladly do it stop using the hostage approach your as bad as those people who do stupid stuff and try to sue people because you lack common sense.

  • Every time i enter EVE I'm still amazed on how a single server(farm) run such a complex and huge environment.
  • The level of errors, incidents and bugs are, as per my experience, is crazy low.
  • 1 hour isn't long when it comes to extended DT. Would you guys prefer X hours emergency downtime?
  • Those of you who have experience from data-center etc, know that the EVE galaxy won't run on good intentions and unfounded opinions. Would be nice though.

  • Read a book or talk to a stranger instead :)

CCP, with all due respect, I love the game, but I honestly don't understand how can you compensate extended downtime by giving us completely useless items in game - imho it's like saying: I am sorry for the inconvenience caused by the extended downtime, let me compensate you by adding more trash to your already great pile of trash that you already own by our previous compensation packages.
I would greatly appreciate a level 5 skill for the inconvenience caused as indeed it has caused me an inconvenience as I have very limited time of playing eve in-between work and school. I know this post won't be read by the ppl who can make a difference in compensations but I feel like saying: If you're going to continue in adding trash to my trash pile, please do not give me any compensations for future trouble as I would appreciate a fair time compensation for time inconvenience.

I see all the tears in here because of a maintenance window that is half an hour longer than normal downtime. I try not to troll, I REALLY DO, but sometimes some players make it SO GODDAMNED HARD.

Complain about downtime all you want, but if you have your car in service you don't complain to your mechanic you can't use it. So cry me a ******* river.
