I've been playing since June and I'm getting the feeling that EVE is steadily becoming less playable for me. I'm wondering if this is because EVE IS becoming generally more trouble prone, or if it has to do with my individual play choices. During my first month or so, I almost never had dropped connections, was always able to immediately log on to my char, experienced no lag, and generally had no technical problems at all (maybe I was just lucky ). Despite the fact that EVE's been patched a couple of times since then and added additional hardware to increase capacity, I now experience frequent drops, bad lagging, and lots of problems logging in and even jumping from one system to another (i.e., waits in queues). Is this the game in general or does it have to do with the fact that I'm now a L4 mission-runner at a base with a couple of high-level L4 agents. I mean it's like a Raven traffic jam at that base. There's always 3-4 Ravens leaving or arriving (not to mention what I assume are loot-haulers). If I relocated to more dangerous locales would the game run more smoothly? Thought I'd better post this before the patch so this won't sound like post-patch whining. Thanks for any info.

Maybe you should take your own advice. Go to a lower populated system and see if the drops are the same. It is possible that there is a problem w/ EvE, but the same possibility exists that your ISP or modem has an issue (if you have a modem). Try it. |

ensure youre minimum connection speed is 256 - 512k as the game is going to require it now. Um check to see if youre ISP is and has a good ping and relaiblity
Also upgrade yure PC if possible to play the game.
Thats about it avoid populated systems where possible - mission running in jita will get u lag killed everytime

the last few days were pretty good for me without any lag most of the time. there are still times, though, where the client randomly loses connection. totally awesome if you are scout, warp somewhere and doing scans in mid-warp you suddenly realize your scanner stops updating. or you warp somewhere, arrive at that spot, but nothing is there while there's targets being called on TS and people saw you warp in. it's just that the client craps out and not really the server in that case.
apparently, lots of client side stuff has been fixed in the kali client from what i read in random threads. i sure hope not only the memory leaks, but also the connection drops. --

Check the corporation that you're running missions for, and get the list of all the agents, and find one in a less populated system.
Umm, how do you get a list of agents? Thanks! Miner Ed
