Please CCP, with the huge bugs in POS mechanics, like 0 second ROF on some dreads, the fact cynnojammers don't work, and billions of isk lost due to various other POS bugs, can you PLEASE initiate a 48 hour rollback, back to when the patch was just deployed?
I don't own or operate any POS's, but I can see there's potential for huge amounts of exploitation, maybe more than GMs can handle. A rollback might be the only way to reverse the consequences of such massive, critical, widespread bugs.

As it stands now there are bugs in the system that can be responsible for the loss of billions of isk in POS assets. There exists an unprecedented chance for massive, wide-scale exploitation of these bugs, and there already have been reports of people taking advantage of these game-breaking bugs.
I'll say this again: I don't own any POS's, I don't operate any, I'm not at war with anyone that does have a POS network, but I can still see there's huge problem for the people that do have POS's. Reimbursement might not be enough in this case, and there's a pretty good chance the GMs are going ot be completely swamped. A rollback might be the only way to reverse the harm these bugs have caused.

It's not just people in 0.0. Hhigh security research POS's and moon mineral mining networkds are also severely affected by a number of bugs, such as them not having any sheilds, or the fact that silos and production modules are now completely broken due renaming issues. high sec POS owners are affected by these bugs just as much as 0.0 POS ownders.

I hate to say it, but the original poster is correct. If player owned structures are as adversely affected as I'm hearing, then they have no real choice but to do something.
These POSes are worth billions of isk, and have an effect on all of us.

We've seen various POS/Dread bugs, implants being destroyed all over the place and the entire BOOT.ini fiasco is still going on.
I have made a fair amount of ISK in the last 24 hrs, but even I wouldn't be wholly opposed to a roll-back before too much time passes.

well cyno jammers prevent cap ships jumping in and everyone in the right mind that plays this game knows dreads dont have 0 rof. Reality is a small percentage of people who are using this screw up in mechanics to get ahead or cause as much hardship as possible.
You know the dreads are broken ( Dont use them )
You know the cyno jammers are broken (dont bring the cap fleet)
You know POS are borked (Dont attack them)
If the small majority of the playerbase used there heads for afew secs they would realise all there doing by abusing the broken game mechanics is causing even more work for a sure to be over worked dev team and if it continues CCP will have no option but to do a rollback to Replace all the pos destroyed/ soverenty lost ect.

I don't see that a roll-back is required.
Anyone who abuses the current bugs is likely to get banned, and that is what the exploit section of the petition system is for.
That, I would hope, would be enough to make people reconsider exploiting the current bugs.

I support a rollback, have been spending the last few hours fixing my POS but I don't have any at all compared to the big alliances. I suppose people will be angry by my stance but I stay by it, the amount of bugs astounds me and we shouldn't realy be playing in something where the fundamentals are mixed up so much.

From past experience they'll only replace the destroyed stuff not the stolen stuff though. And in game I hear it is not being reported who attacked your POS, which kinda sucks.....

I hope everyone doing it gets banned does get banned, but the problem is I suspect CCP will throw POS modules into local stations as opposed to setting them up, I am unsure whether they would give back the fuel and reaction materials as Dread gangs would probably loot them..... Seriously it takes 8 hours or so to get a tower online, I did 4 at a time and it took me 10 so getting people motivated to redeploy the things would be very, very hard.

It would be great if CCP were more pro-active in preventing this sort of thing instead of a wait-petition, and with the bugs in this patch it will be a month, by which time a GM won't be able to do anything anyway... come on lets remove some of the load on the GMs by preventing issues BEFORE they get to the petition stage.
I've submitted about 5 petitions in 4 years, and have already had to do 4 in the last day, and that's not due to being exploit attacked or anything like that yet :o

No one would have liked it, but CCP should've immediately pulled down the servers when they were aware of this potentially alliance crippling bug. Cynojammers down and insta-POS-killing dreadnaughts completely break the game.
But instead CCP let the servers go on and now have a big mess on their hands and will be spending a lot of time on petitions (a super efficient system as everybody knows :rolls eyes:) and angry people and fixing stuff. Any rollback that is not accompanied by free game-time or free training-time would make a lot of people unhappy as well. Nice position you put yourself in CCP.
When something like this happens, you have to pull the servers CCP. I am pretty sure people can live without EVE for some days, I seem to remember a life before EVE in fact. Don't let people run around abusing broken game mechanics, that's borderline encouraged in EVE...

What's a POS? What's an alliance?
The majority of players don't care about either so why should they suffer a roll-back? If those that do care about what happens in 0.0 use self-restraint and help the Devs and GMs to resolve the issue sensibly then they deserve even less sympathy.

Eve is like chaos theory, one alteration affecting 1% directly would effect 60% indirectly and then come to 100% after a few days. With 9% of people (remember lots of them have emprie alts so saying 20-30% probably would be more accurate imho) in this position I would say pull the plug unless I had a definite way to fix it allready while it was live - I trust CCP did this and it is FIXED as we haven't gone offline yet.

I'm not quite sure where this 91% figure comes from; sure the isk farming macros won't care, but considering REAL players in the game there are far more than 9% in 0.0 space, and every pos affects every single one of those players.
Besides, nobody really loses out with a roll back anyway. It affects everybody to the same level.

CCP, this patch was implimented terribly.
Sure, you might not like whats being written here, and it would perhaps be unfair to expect that such a large patch is going to work perfectly the instant its implimented - however, this whole situation of POS & Dreads is going way beyond that, not to mention the complete fiasco with destroying peoples Operating systems with the boot.ini
I'm just glad right now I don't own a POS and haven't had chance to install the patch due to being very busy at work - this is a very big let down and reveals how little some of the patch was tested, because these mistakes aren't small ones, they are huge...

There was an economic review some time back, according to statistics at the time 9% of the charecters in eve were in 0.0. I am of the school of thought that 1 person = 2 accounts = 6 charecters which skews the number of people this data shows are affiliated with 0.0 operations.

The GM's will be able to see who it is, even if you can't. What they need to know is which of your POS are broken, and in what way they are broken. Then they can look for common factors as well as firefighting your particular issue.
Originally by: Granmethedon III Besides, nobody really loses out with a roll back anyway. It affects everybody to the same level.
Wrong.
Player A has been playing solidly since the server came back up, apart from short breaks for sleep and other biological functions. They have amassed a significant amount of isk/standings/ore/whatever during that playtime, all of which would be lost with a rollback, along with their skill training.
Player B has not even bothered to log on yet after the patch. All they lose is their skill training, nothing else.
Hopefully you can see that Player A loses significantly more than Player B. ------- There is no magic Wand of Fixing, and it is not powered by forum whines. |

I was replying to the suggestion that it would be better to take the sever down for a few days so that alliances in 0.0 wouldn't have to be inconvenienced by petitions.
Is it fair to stop everyone playing for a few days, even if they have no participation in 0.0 at all?
Sure the situation is a pain, but to be honest I don't mind the thought of a forced break from stupid POS warfare until it is fixed.

Then ban them.
And then ban people who use this whole situation as a way to try and gain political mileage through weak trolls.

Originally by: Talla Hurzin Please CCP, with the huge bugs in POS mechanics, like 0 second ROF on some dreads, the fact cynnojammers don't work, and billions of isk lost due to various other POS bugs, can you PLEASE initiate a 48 hour rollback, back to when the patch was just deployed?
I don't own or operate any POS's, but I can see there's potential for huge amounts of exploitation, maybe more than GMs can handle. A rollback might be the only way to reverse the consequences of such massive, critical, widespread bugs.
you know that 90% of ppl arent in 0.0 or related to any POS activity. so no rollback will ever happen

as above.
besides, the people *actually* losing out are the ones who'd be attacking a POS legitimately at this point, but can't for fear of being petitioned.
*again. |

Originally by: Avon I disagree. Preventing 91% of the playing population from enjoying the game, because of some bugs which may effect a small minority of players, is a pretty selfish attitude.
Its not 91% since high-sec POS are affected as well. Besides, a lot of 0.0 dwellers have empire alts anyway.
Its just funny that the reason this patch is rushed into release just before the end of the year (X-mas) to get more customers and having it backfire into getting bad publicity with the 'boot.ini' epic fail. An expensive typo. Hardly can't blaim QA about this. Its just CCP showing that they really like the tradition that every major patch results in utter chaos when it hits TQ. They spend 2 years on the GFX engine and couldn't spend 2 months more to test it properly.
And bug abusers getting caught and banned? The people who are supposed to handle these petitions are quite capable when it comes to reading logfiles. In the mean time they try to fix the stuff that got broken. The bright side of that is that there are plenty of users who can pitch in with that.
