Speak for yourself. The game works great for me. And yes, of course, they need to be constantly improving and upgrading with the latest technology to keep it able to accomodate the numbers of players.

Then I guess that sucks for you. Since you're apparently stupid enough to pay for and play a game that "doesn't work."

He won't be able to cause he will be stuck at the login screen after he dies to lag and CTD's.. But to be fair to CCP pretty much all the rest of Eve minus Motsu/Jita and the larger Fleet/Pos battles runs like a dream.. I never experience lag anymore no matter what I'm doing even with 3 accounts running at once unless of course I happen to run into a blob..

One of EvE's selling points atleast to me is the fact that it is all on a single server. My actions affect those around me and their actions affect me. If their is another server all of a sudden my actions dont affect X amount of people and vice versa. That may not make much sense to some people but as far as I know this is one of a hand full, if not the only MMO, that actually forces everyone onto a single server and play togeather.

The current game mechanics won't work with all players starting as noobs again. Just look at eve china, people were not able to fly cap ships but could set up POSes, this was done pretty early by huge metagaming guilds which now rule all of 0.0.
Because of the huge difference of wages in China these big players pay players in RL to act as a police force in their 0.0 space. ___

I've flown in a 100 man fleet (after Revelations II came out and the desync problems started) without a glitch. Anyway, you can live in 0.0 and be part of an alliance without fighting in battles that large. The corp that my main character is in at present is in 0.0 and specializes in roaming gangs of 30 or less, mainly light ships. I haven't desynced for a long time now.

It seems the rev II desync problem effects multiple account players far more than someone running only one client.. Which I have tested out myself by running around being an ass and bumping people and shooting things up with no desync at all.. As soon as I boot up another account and gang up though the desync hits with a vengance.. Maybe its a stealth nerf to macrominer/farmers that also just happens to annoy the **** out of the legit playerbase?

"single server" is a unique feature of EVE as stated in Intruduction.... But, how ever you can go play EVE-CHINA  about average 4,000 people is logged on there

Originally by: Cass Daystar *SNIP* ... but HONESTLY ask yourself... how MANY of those 30,000 ppl who are online at any one time do you KNOW? How many know YOU? The single shard argument was legitimate - at one time - but not now IMHO. When there are 120,000 accounts and 20-30,000 of them are on at any one time, then it is not a big sanbox where we all interact with each other (except thru the market), it is just a really big shard. You still don't know any more people or even meet any more people than the server that was capped at 20,000 players. Honestly, do you really believe that you will meet/know everyone in this game?
Going on this argument, I'll tell you what... You can shard EVE when they shard RL. Cause for god sakes, there are far to many people for me to meet in this lifetime.  _________

Eve doesnt need to be sharded per se, but the cluster needs to be made a lot larger and essentially have several slightly different clusters sort of like sharding except you have a means of transferring between them at DT or something. This would seem to be a relatively effective way of making the game world have a sense of actual scale, and helping give people who dont have the muscle to hold one of the existing 0.0 regions a way to claim some space without borking the system. A while back I was writing up a giant wall of text with more detail on this, I got bored but I guess Ill try and finish it soon and post in ideas section. _________________ [SAK] Alumnus--And Proud Of It! -- aka Cpt Bogus Is that my torped sig cloaking your base?

While I sympathize about the lag, I really-really do, what happens if they shard the server and the lag stays? 
I do wish CCP would quit messing around with new shiny junk and concentrate on lag and bugs. And yes I've heard the bit about different teams and all that. I made better excuses for not doing my homework when I was six.

On the surface one would think that doing it that way would be better but I'll spin a little allegory to show how false that logic is..
Your in a resturant and don't like the fact it takes 20 minutes to cook your steak and get it to your table so you can enjoy it cause your very hungy.. So on the way out the door you fill out a suggestion card with a few choice paragraphs about how if they fired all the waitresses busboys food preparers bartenders(you don't drink) and the dish washers plus that obviously incompetant chef who takes ages to cook your damn steak then they could afford to hire 20 chefs who would be able to cook your steak 20 times faster and 20 times more tastey to boot.. You drop the note into the box and step back and admire how awesome your supremely logical suggestion is and look forward to your next visit with your favorite steak hot and flavorful at your table in under a minute..

That's like saying don't talk about the screw-ups. Lets plow ahead with the way it is and dig ourselves in deeper.
Price Watcher is spot on. Sharding won't help with lag and stutter in Eve. The software is too bloated.

Umm.. What?
I was talking about how people seem to think that throwing more "bug testers" on the code will somehow speed up the process.. As in there is an optimal number of people who can share development time in one area of the game and adding more by cutting other areas has no effect other than to gimp the system as a whole.. To make it simpler think of the one chef as the optimal group of "bug testers" and it should all fall in place.. 
Make more sense now? Where your getting on about having people to not complain I don't know..

OK.......I do not want to see eve shared at all. How ever, EVE PVP, which is in my own mind the only reason I loved eve has been becoming increasingly UNPLAYABLE. so if there no other way to fix EVE and keep the one universe then EVE has failed and until the time comes that the dream that is eve can be revised, EVE is, IMO, lost.
