Trinity Patch has caused some serious issues. From minor bugs, to totally crashing out people's computers, rendering them useless.
I could go on for many paragraphs, but when it comes down to it, we all know this current patch is rubbish.
The worst mess up i've experienced in online gaming.
CCP, i think you should compensate us with free EvE time to make up for all the crap you have put us through.
I think its totally unfair that i am being charged to play when i believe the game is incomplete and thus not playable.

You are being charged to have an active account on the server, nothing more.
If you don't like it, stop paying. -

Don't bother asking for this or anyone else stuff, given the current state of the game you might never receive it.
My original sig was 'Enjoy lag free play in a dynamic space MMORPG'. It was removed for lack of EVE content! ;) CCP say 'Shut up about bugs and eat your eye candy!' |

Because the contract you signed with them states that you pay when the server isn't available.
No more complicated than that. What you actually pay for is the loan of some data on a server, and an access to it outside of maintenance / upgrade times whether or not bugs prevent you to access it.

Amazing how many forum *****s there are. You all come out of the woodwork at any chance to smack.
Sad though that you can look at EvE's current status and call it a working model.
You lot must be easily pleased.
I'm a bit more picky about what i see as acceptable and atm EvE is a bit too prototype for my liking.

If the game is unplayable, then I assume you are not playing?
Therefore, unsubscribe until such time as you consider the game playable again.
Either you are paying for a product you are not using, which is kinda dumb, or you are playing the game thus rendering your unplayable arguement void.

The problem with telling people to STFU and unsubscribe is that if a lot of people start getting ****ed off with the game it will die.
Get annoyed at CCP, not at other users.

If that many people start unsubscribing, CCP will have to fix the problems or lose their source of income.

Then leave.
And good luck finding any other MMORPG that isn't feeling like a prototype. Newsflash : there isn't any.
All MMORPG nerf and boost stuff more or less randomly depending on the amount of whining / their vision of what the game should be / the way the wind blows / what is really needed to make the game work. CCP is changing according of their vision most of the time, which is enough for me.
And, can I have your stuff ?

Strange...I haven't suffered from this patch at all. I don't want any compensation. Perhaps you should stop speaking for others. I don't have any hard numbers, just like you don't, but I believe most users are just fine. Besides, CCP gives us all expansions for free so cut them some slack, mmmkay?

As stated earlier, the usual trolling suspects are flocking to this one majorly fast.
The amount of sh!te that passed through the Q&A filter this patch is rather amazing, I'm not talking about nerfs because there weren't any, all that happened was getting certain ships in line with their racial counterparts.
However, the amount of 'undocumented features' is sickening though, I'm amazed they could cram so many mistakes and problems into one single patch even if they really tried. If you stop sucking CCP c0k for a second and look beyond the graphics changes this whole update is one big pile of fail.
------------ We didn't want that boot.ini anyway |

You have missed the point. The point is not that CCP is great and amazing and can do no wrong. The point is that merely being here is a validation of the job they have done. So, if you think its not worth paying for, leave. -

I have no problem playing. The game seems awesomely playable to me. Seems to me you have a problem that you can clear up.
I'm not saying the patch is a godsend or anything, but seriously, where does this sense of entitlement come from? Yes, I know you put 15 bucks in their wallet every month, but that's not really enough.
Take a breath, calm down, and enjoy the game. I am.
If not, can i have your stuff? good game

I have a theory, I believe that those who are most verbal about getting 'compensation' for the boot.ini screw-up... weren't actually affected by it. [it's like how the ones you need to worry about committing suicide aren't the ones who go around complaining all the time, it's the quiet ones.]
but either way, just because you believe the game is incomplete and thus not playable, it doesn't mean that everyone believes the same. the 41,000+ players who were on simultaneously yesterday certainly seemed to feel the game was playable enough.

Then just stop paying. Same message to the OP. It's not mandatory you know. If you're unhappy just. Stop. Playing. Think what you could do with the $15/month you save! You could buy a beer every day.. no wait, you couldn't. Hmm. You could go to the cinema, er, twice a month! Or you could take your girlfriend out for a pizza once a month! Awesome!

OK, I'll try it without the sarcasm.
My point was that EVE has a very high value. It provides a huge amount of possible entertainment for a very low cost. If you compare the cost of EVE to other common forms of entertainment, such as drinking alcohol, dining out and going to the cinema then you get a lot more value for your money from EVE. In my opinion. Nothing disingenuous about that, it's a serious point I'm making.
Relating to the original post, similar to all other forms of entertainment (deliberate emphasis) if the OP isn't happy with what he/she is receiving for their money then they have the choice to simply not partake in said entertainment.
EVE, like getting drunk, eating out and watching movies, isn't an essential service like electricity, water, healthcare etc. It's an optional pastime. There are a limitless number of alternative forms of entertainment that the OP can partake in if they find that EVE isn't to their liking.
It's really not rocket science, and the point of my posts here is that I am fed up and increasingly amused at the histrionic nature of the whine posts about Trinity here. If you're not happy with the service you're getting for your $15/month (or whatever) then stop paying and stop playing. Really, it's that simple as far as I can see. ________________________________________________________________

But eve works on my crappy computer with two accounts and hasn't crashed yet except when I was virus sweeping at same time. From my experiance of having trinity without lag on a crappy computer (while dual accounts) I have estimated that most whines are vastly exagerrated...because trinity works 100% for me (cept pos warfare but I'm not in an alliance so for them it's probably annoying and i'll accept that one as a flaw). --------

Agreed. MMOs are some of the most cost effective forms of entertainment around, and are unequaled in sheer quantity of playable man-hours. And paying to play a game you don't like is stupid.

no offence, but it hasnt been that bad. if the server was down for 3 days or so, then i would agree on some kind of compensation. But server has been up and runing, several bugs, yes. But, server is still up and running and it's operational to the end where you can play. ______________________

I can't see what you're complaining about. Trinity has to be the most stable patch I have experienced in my EVE life.
I have either been really lucky and missed any server crashes or database glitches wihich have caused unscheduled downtime or there hasn't been any.
OK the boot.ini debarcle should have been avoided and POS warfare has stopped for a bit, otherwise it's been plain sailing.
41k+ players, well thats always gonna hit Jita around the head with a piece of 2 by 4 
But like what everyone else said, if you're not enjoying it then go and do something more interesting instead.

LOL, this is why i usually avoid forums.
Glad ur all so interested in my topic. But I still stand by the Trinity = TheSuck view.
Don't be fooled by flashy textures dumped on old models, the current running EvE is well flawed.
Personally i thought RPG's were for noobs. I've played heaps and found them all to be the ghey. FPS? Right on! Which is why i play them competitively and to a high standard.
However, EvE got me interested where other RPG's hadn't. Not an easy thing to do. I think they made a great game which is why i continued to play..... obviously.
I developed a respect for CCP, and thus have high expectations of what CCP are capable of putting out. On this occaision they have not met my expectation.
I tend not to quote people cos its quite offensive, but since you all love quotes heres one just for you:
"CCP should make lolly pops, there's plenty of ppl who would line up to suck them."

If the game is broken.. why do you still even want to play it, free or not. Seems like a waste of time to me.
I mean, do you normally try to drive a broken car over and over? Do you just get in it and me the engine sounds and pretend you are going somewhere?
and... As far as I remember, there is a CANCEL SUBSCRIPTION tab somewhere in in "My Account" When you activate this you effectively stop paying.

Originally by: Vlade Randal Trinity Patch has caused some serious issues. From minor bugs, to totally crashing out people's computers, rendering them useless.
I could go on for many paragraphs, but when it comes down to it, we all know this current patch is rubbish.
The worst mess up i've experienced in online gaming.
CCP, i think you should compensate us with free EvE time to make up for all the crap you have put us through.
I think its totally unfair that i am being charged to play when i believe the game is incomplete and thus not playable.
I'm pretty sure in that there is a portion in the EULA(sp?) that we all ignored where it says ccp has no obligation to refund any lost game time due to technical difficulties, same goes for panicking computer novice's who made a minor problem into a big one.
So no, i can understand the frustration, but its your own fault for..
A: being ignorant of the actual problem and making it worse by taking wrong actions.
B: Not reading something they require you to agree to when you install the game.

Eve is a great game and people like the OP know it. That's why they're not leaving even though they strongly view certain things as 'rubbish'.
Why should we have to give up the entire game just because of some 'rubbish' in it?
And if we decide to stick with the 'rubbish' for a certain time at least, why should we be forbidden or get flamed/trolled for complaining about this rubbish?

I'll 2nd that. Only way CCP will know what some are thinking is us voicing our opinions. Although not in favour of any financial compensation, I agree CCP should be embarrassed by this patch and look at how they can reduce bugs in future patches. Personally, I do feel the patch was rushed out, without a good spell of testing...

Not a good idea Vlade. I knew as soon as I read your post that you were going to get flamed to hell and back.
Having said that, I agree with what you are saying, and I am frankly astonished at some of these so called "mature" players reactions.
The guy has a genuine gripe, and it's not exactly difficult to see where he is coming from, since we've just had the worst patch in EVE history.....hell probably in MMO history. I'm sure he put up this thread because he cares a great deal about the game, as we all do and just doesn't want to see it in the mess it's currently in.
Some of you lot need to grow up, stop flaming each other and instead throw your insults at CCP, and hope they actually listen for a change.

The reason why you quote my post becomes unclear then. I thought you were contradicting the fact that every single MMORPG by its very nature (adding stuff and functions every little while) feels like a prototype, or a continuous beta.

If you expect bug free gaming, then perhaps MMOs are not for you. Yes the boot.ini thing was a bad mistake, but it didn't cause any physical damage and was easy to fix.

This is silly. It was a free expansion, if you don't like your game experience then vote with your wallet, cancel your account and find a game that makes you happier.
Originally by: Vlade Randal

The game is NOT unplayable, it plays quite fine, yes it has some bugs, always has and always will. If YOU believe the game is "incomplete and thus not playable", then just cancel. You need to have a lot of patience and understand to enjoy MMOs, they are not instant gratification games, there will be a lot of bugs along the way, some things may take a while to be fixed, it happens in ALL MMOs. If the game was truly that unplayable, they would take the servers down and give people free playtime.
Yes there are some things that are screwed up with Trinity, but guess what? IT WAS FREE! Beyond that if you truly believe the game is so miserably broken now, then just leave and come back in a few months to see how its going.

Edited by: DJ P on 10/12/2007 16:54:18 This patch (except the issue with the POS*) was the best one so far. And I'm talking about the ACTUAL PATCH and not the PREMIUM CONTENT which is NOT MANDATORY to play the game. So stop complaining about the Premium Content. None force you to install it.
Regarding the Premium Content upgrade. Thank CCP that is free and you don't have to pay for it, as in EVERY OTHER MMORPG.
As for the other issues, except the few dozen people really being hit by the boot.ini problem, they are minor and are based on software installed on your computers.
I know quite a few friends who have multiple crashes, flickering screens, bad fps. It's on their systems and all of them belong to one of the categories : a) Pirate copies of windows, not updated for years. b) Hardware that barely supports the new engine. Nvidia 6800 is bare minimum. You need Nvidia 7600/8600 or Ati X1900+, Dual Core and 2GB RAM to properly play with the PREMIUM CONTENT not MANDATORY. c) Drivers for all hardware. (A lot of people fall on this category).
*I haven't see SirMolle or other serious people who have being hit badly by this bug. Only minors who troll for the sake of it.

Yes but people don't talk about suing the newspaper company because their paper showed up wet or ripped. Defending CCP or any other gaming company had very little to with it. People need to understand that MMOs are different then buying an FRP or RTS game. The quality will just not be the same. I don't care what game it is and who runs it, there is always something wrong with an MMO.
The simple fact here is if you don't like this MMO anymore for whatever reason, then don't play it. Most game devs glaze over people screaming and yelling on their forums. Where they REALLY start to notice is when subscriptions drop.

NOT True
The boot.ini thing happened because of an OPTIONAL PATCH, the classic patch did not cause the problem.
Do people who installed the OPTIONAL Premium patch and actually had it cause their PC to crash and not boot anymore have a right to be upset?
Hell Yes!
But claiming the game is not playable is false. It is very playable, and quite a lot of people are playing with little or no issue.

I'm not missing the point. It does actually cover this in the EULA as I posted a few posts above. I will requote the section that covers your statement.
The Software, System, Game and all Game Content, and all other services and material provided in connection therewith, are provided "AS IS," with all faults, and without warranty of any kind. You assume all risk of use and all risk associated with accessing the System and playing the Game.
Don't get me wrong, if I my machine died. I'd be slighty upset. But I'd just save my data and reinstall windows (heck I do that once a year anyways). The potential for a system failure is possible with any piece of software or patch.

Going on forums and whining u quit if ccp doesn't give in to your demands = fail
comming on forums and flaming people and pretending eve is perfectly fine = fail
I think both sides should settle down and look at what their doing, stop whining that u will quit if ccp doesn't give u what u want, it makes u sound like a sad little git. But the other group is just as bad, pretending the game and the patch are perfectly fine and wonderfull, cmon, lets be honest here, releasing a patch that deletes ur boot.ini file can hardly be called perfectly fine and wonderfull, but thats not the point i want to make here, just stop pretending it is all good and dandy, it is not and it will never be so because thats just how it is in EVE.
Me personally i think as usual there are good and bad things in this patch, i love a lot of the new features and the graphics did look nice, but the purtier graphics come at a cost, people should realize that before whining, and ccp did make it so u can easily revert back to the classic version whenever u want.
The large number of nerfs are bad, tbh i have a hard time seeing a really thought through reason for nerfing some of them cept the mob on the forums that whined day in day out to have them nerfed, but some of the fixes are good and were badly needed.
So in a few weeks the dust will have settled, people will have decided to go with classic or premium, ohters will find ways around some nerfs, another 'i win' button will be found, and people will find something else they want to see nerfed and come whine about it on the forums, it's just same old really, i can't remember a big patch were stuff like this didn't happen.
I would like to conclude with the following few words.
The only way not to get sick and tired of this game is simple... adapt or die... it's always been like this and i can imagine it will remain like this for many a patch to come and i would not have survived all these years had i not followed this solid piece of advice.
If u don't agree with the above thats your choice and ur right but don't flame me for mine, or do, and see if i care.  CCP, let us pay the online shop with Direct Debit!!! Magners is now recruiting, evemail me or Dagazbo ingame.

Some people have a very harsh way of saying it, or just enjoy flaming people. Fact of the matter is though, MMO Devs have a tough job. I don't envy them one bit. Then people come on the forums and turn every other post into "You suck, you ruined our game, we demand compensation, etc..."
A lot less people actually come on here and post constructive criticisms, instead they just cry foul and insist someone owes them something, which doesn't help anyone.
I fully support the idea of just quitting if you are that upset. It is a game, its not worth being so upset about. Quit, take some time away, come back or find another game. It is easy for forum threads to be ignored, forgotten, or pushed back several pages. It is hard to ignore drops in subscribers, it directly affects the company. If you truly dislike the game enough to consider it unplayable then why pay for it? Just quit. You save your own sanity, ours, and you show the company that their product no longer interests you in it's current form.

Premium content patch was not and is not manditory. I play the game same as you.. the difference is I understand this expantion was huge nearly as large as the original client alone not inclueding the the classic patch. So yeah something this big is going to come with problems just like EVERY patch/expantion of any mmo on the market. Deal with it.. it isnt the end of the world.

there is a distinct difference between 'pretending everything is perfectly fine' and understanding that nothing is perfect.. and letting the people who have kept it going this long worry about fixing those obvious problems.
threatening to sue their face off is not one of those things that helps the situation. you can't beat your point into anyone and expect them to actually listen. and in addition, you've seriously gotta review your point a few times in your head or amongst friends to actually validate it before foaming at the mouth trying to explain it in public.

This expansion is pure win. Yes it has its issues, but every patch does. Most of the problems people are having with the new graphics are prolly their own computer problems, most likely drivers (everyone i see complaining is on a laptop not running third party drivers)
the new ships are sweet, some balance changes were a might over the top, but it happens, and nothing is set in stone.
The only real issue you can complain about is the boot.ini problem, which couldnt effect everyone.
oh, and btw, the POSes break every patch. Its just how it works. With a patch this HUGE, the game has been quite playable.

Why not just petition CCP and ask in a nice way, one of my fellow gamers has, and got a nice reply and some free time. It wasn't difficult, ccp are not monsters, they are not unreasonable and they did not suddenly decide to screw over everyones computer (unless they were all drunk down the pub)

LOL Man O Man I love it when all the EVE Junkies come around to smack any one who dares to diss eve.
My advice here is to take a deep breath and go watch TV for a while. I laughed out aloud at some one saying EVE is to much Proto Type EVE is one big experiment live with it.

I don't think that the patch was a huge blunder on the part of CCP - actually it went through very well if you consider how huge the patch was and all the changes that were made.
I do however agree that CCP should reimburse the players for lost game time. Either when the server is down outside of the downtime or if a patch is being deployed that requires an extended downtime. That would be fair... and I remember CCP actually giving us free game time when I first started playing EVE.. but then suddenly they stopped this compensation (even though the service didn't become more stable then before.. if anything it got more instable and required more unscheduled downtimes).
This is not a whine and I won't cancel my accounts because of something like this but I still must acknowledge that CCP has stopped giving free game time without giving an explanation.
I of course would welcome a reimbursement policy for lost game time... but I don't really expect to get one.  |

It's about the principle! When SOE or Blizzard screw up and their service isn't being provided for a period of time, then their customers get that time compensated. We here in EVE do not get it compensated even if we are paying more then the average MMORPG-Prices. This is simply something that I find unfair!
And EULA or no EULA... CCP used to compensate for lost game time and I'm pretty sure they already had their EULA in place back then and that didn't stop them from compensating us.
I can only conclude that CCP either doesn't care about their customers and hopes that there are enough CCP-fanbois that will continue paying even if the server is down for 3 weeks or CCP doesn't believe that EVE will ever run good enough so that they can compensate for all the lost game time.
There may well be some other reason for it but since CCP never told us, I'm forced to draw some conclusions of my own. 
Maybe someone at CCP would care to make a statement as to why the reimbursement of game time was removed some 2,5 years ago and never reintroduced? |
