It was evening in Europe.
and I've been at work, all mother ******* day, trying to put food on my family, and I'm supposed to go home and test other people's software for free, so that they can charge me for it?
No thanks. That sounds like a mugs game.
Well i was there and we had plenty of people online. And what the hell is wrong with jumping on the test server every now and then? Everythings 100 isk so you can have a good ole time testing out ship fittings at the FFA areas. All we did was shooot each other and talk smack so I don't quite understand what you mean by 'testing others software for free' bit. Tbh is was the first time in my experience on the test server that we had 200 in MD-FLJ without any lag. So maybe the new network layer is a step forward yes? |

EVE IS DYING
That is a great post, its shows how there is no lag in EVE.
Well actually for the majority of Eve there is no lag outside of Jita and the Motsu area. 0.0 residents and the resultant fleet fights and lag death effect about 20% of the playerbase so his post was to mock the ops statement about how Eve will die over something that effects such a small segment of the playerbase. Fleet fights are the last major lag monster to be killed because it is the hardest and most costly issue to fix. So go figure why CCP has fixed the game for the 80% and left the 20% to wait. Oh wait ill go ahead and tell you. Those 80% pay for the eventual upgrades for the 20%. |

But sir, fleet combat in an 'endgame' for many players. We've all worked to get skills and isk to finally hang with the big boys and enjoy some combat. Many of the 80% you're refering to are working towards reaching a goal that will let them down. Are you saying we should all just mine or pirate until CCP fixes their game? Once again, I didn't put Titans and POS's into the game, CCP did.
Trust, I understand your pain. Eve sucked big fat donkey balls lagwise when I first started playing waaay back in 2004 but over time CCP has pretty much made the game quite playable for the majority. Unfortunatly cold hard economics determine who gets the lions share of the profits to keep the game up and running. Remember that Eve is a work in progress though I really really wish it was otherwise as I've been playing for years waiting for the eventual 0.0 buff that is soooo close to happening. Alas fleet fights still suck and will continue to suck until the supercomputer and infiniband hits. Patience will be rewarded in due time.  |
