100 man gangs, lagging out entire area's.
This is what I am getting now. I spend a lot of time solo pvping. However lately the blobs are getting bigger and the lag is getting worse. As far as I am concerned people can do what they want. When it starts effecting my game play though it becomes an annoyance.
Within 5 or so jumps of Tama I can't even scan ships or show info, nothing happens when I try.
Very frustrating time now, when I have had so much fun previously.
Bound to get flamed to hell for this because it appear the majority of faction warfare players want to blob as much as possible. 
P.S. respect to those I have thought so far this week.  |

Because I am in faction warfare.
Just because I am doing FW, doesn't mean I have to share the blob mentallity. |

It's not on a whole and if it doesn't effect me they can do what they want as far as I am concerned. Lately it's started making things unplayable though and after all, playing is what we want to do right.
Also to the one who wanted my stuff you can kill me hundreds of times and scoop the loot. Otherwise you aint getting **** boyo!  |

No, people just need time to get over the "ohh shiney" reaction to FW. Then things will settle down and you can truely enjoy FW.  |

The problem is not the 100+ blobs, the problem is **** poor programming and massively underpowered/overtaxed servers. The only way to fix is it basically redesign the game from top to bottom using modern equipment and code that isn't 5 years out of date. |

I agree , CCP is to blame. If they had more money maybe they would fix their POS hardware.

Er...what servers would you recommend CCP purchase? Remember, it has to be available to civilians. |

Edited by: Sky Grunthor on 12/06/2008 17:34:27 I'm enjoying the 100+ blob gangs of caldari in caracals and drakes that we destroy. just more targets to kill. So far the balance of real power is lying in the minmatar and gallente groups. We just have to excersize it.
yes I'm exagerating... get over it. |

Edited by: wassssabi on 12/06/2008 18:01:31 FW is fun. There is a combination of blobs and small t1 gangs. You just have to find your prey. Overall, low sec was crawling with targets yesterday. Tons of fun and easy kills.

I don't have an issue with getting fights.
It's purely the lag generated like as I type there is a fight amongst 193 pilots.

At what point did I say it would be easy? Did the meaning of "basically" change to mean the same as "easy" perhaps?
*rereads post...* *cross checks a dictionary*
Nope... Not in there. I said it is what needs to be done. How they go about doing it is completely up to them.
I also never said I was unahppy with the game. I enjoy Eve very much. Its a good concept and has a lot of potential. Perhaps they need to consider Eve 2.0?
As far as the hardware goes... how about setting up something along the lines of a server farm running 32 or 64 cores per node. Use Infiniband technology to handle the I/O portion of it with ultra high speed drives that are capable of keeping up with massive amounts of Database requests.
Or if they want to go the cheap route, they can go the Google route. Use hundreds of simple PC's all clustered together using a distributed computing model. |

Join the Amarr Militia. Fewer players on both sides means smaller gangs and less lag. |

I share your pain, touch :)
It'll calm down eventually but today, tomorrow and especially this weekend, expect a LOT of this. There was 150 in the caldari militia at prime time yesterday - there's over 550 at the moment and it's not even 6:30pm! Check it at 8 or 9pm, it'll be like 800 or so. This weekend, I bet it'll top 1000 and possibly a lot more - and the other sides will be doing that too.
But it'll calm down at some point.
Right now a lot of it is new players, disorganisation amongst the corps etc - as time goes on, they'll learn not to work like this :D
Also the pirates have come along (as expected) but they're apparently not doing too well... they just lost 2 carriers to us hehehe. |

Maybe the alt-tabbing is part of your problem. If you don't like the blob, why don't you recruit a small group and go visit other systems? There are plenty of them. |

They just need to convert the servers and design a client that still runs on Windows/Mac/Whatever platforms. |
