keep up the good work CCP
Most people have information, not knowledge. They are 2 very different things. One is dangerous, the latter is useful. Information is a fuse used to ignite the masses...knowledge comes from experience.
What? Someone had to get serious... |

Suppose there is an ant at each vertex of a triangle and the three ants simultaneously crawl along a side to the next vertex. The probability that no two ants will encounter one another is 2/8, since the only two cases in which no encounter occurs are when the ants all go left (clockwise) -- LLL -- or all go right (counterclockwise) -- RRR. In the six other cases -- RRL, RLR, RLL, LLR, LRL, and LRR -- there will be an encounter.
Now - what is the probability of no encounter for dodecahedron ?
Also: If a chicken and a half can lay an egg and a half in a day and a half, how long would it take a one legged monkey to kick all the seeds out of a dill pickle? |

You can test a small project with 5 people on it and still get unpredictqble results at deploy. Those things do happen rather often. But you talk about giant project with propably hundreds of developers. This is completely different scale, which you can't probably even imagine. It's complex. Thousands of things can go wrong and years old bug existing in the system may surface just because someone changed something related to something ... Don't try to look smart, when you don't know basics man. If you knew the SW business, as I do, you would be veery surprised EVE is running so smooth most of the time.

Its not a problem for me persay, but if you end up missing your entire alotted time to play EVE in a week... There are some people playing the game who sub up, but end up being able to play for perhaps as few as 5 days of the month. If one of those days the server borks out, they paid alot for "nothing", so to speak.
I hope it gets fixed soon, but w/e, it'll be ready when its ready eh :p I'm glad my phone app wasnt glitching when it kept insisting the server was offline :p
Just a friendly reminder..., it's "per se". |

Maybe we should take our time and release stuff when its ready, as opposed to releasing it on the release schedule thats setup months in advance that does not possibly have the ability to factor in every thing that could go wrong and slow your release down.

I believe they all pretty much play the game, a lot, and have access to people who play the game full time. |

Mazalan Erata wrote:So again, arrived at next game after leaving earlier games for lag, disconnections and ever during updates. Got me started for 3 months, and payed nicely to end up with another game that has no intrest in letting players play their game, while they figure out where they ****** up with the update.
Honestly, I suppose it is my own fault for thinking that after spending so much money with the many thousands or millions in which we play these games, and buying extra credits on a weekly basis for getting just a little more ahead then others, that some of that money would be spend in creating a redundant server setup, where when someone fucks up, you don't bother the players for hours of game time, because you ****** up installing a update.
Where has the game world gone, when fucks ups are more important then the users that keep games like this running by paying for things that (in this case) might breakdown.
Oooohhh my god, 6 hours of downtime??? Your hosting an online game...
If it ain't broken, don't try to fix it, if it is broken, (THEN WHY HAVEN'T YOU FIXED IT YET)...

There are 30 days in a sub cycle. This is 720 hours a cycle. The most expensive sub fee for Eve is $15USD/mo. This works out to ~$0.02 cents an hour.
So, all in all, per account, you are currently out right around 12 cents USD as of this moment.
If this amount is truly stressful for you, please send me a verifiable invoice of your current accounts. I will reimburse you the time you are currently out from Eve right from my own pocket. It's not the rl money. I could have made 6-7 bil in those 6-7 hours (some a lot more, some a lot less)
Well, no one else made any ISK either...so you are exactly where you were in relation to the entire community. I hope this makes you feel better.

Alan Mathison wrote:Wow.
To a large extent, I've never seen such a bunch of entitled whiners. This is a game, folks.
I've been where CCP are now, in Real Life (anyone ranting here knows what that is?). I can assure you that no one involved with the servers or the relevant programming now is sitting back and opening up the beers. They're going through a nightmare right now.
CCP Falcon is telling us what can be told. In situations like this its a delicate balance between letting the guys who can fix the issue fix the issue, and bugging them to tell you what's going on when it probably isn't clear to anyone yet.
A good percentage of you folks are reacting like 13 year old boys whose only knowledge of responsibility is taking a shower once in a while and making sure your corp's POSs are fueled up.
Let's be nice humans with some compassion & a reasonable sense of priorities. CCP want the servers back up, believe it or not, more than we do, and they have a better reason for it.
Keep hacking, CCP. Ignore the haters. They have no idea what's going on.
Oh, and Falcon, loved the addition of the Maurice fire-in-server-room graphic. Made my day!
Good luck, guys!
Very few of the posts today have been whiners. I've read them all and you sir, are over-reacting! |
