I have to put it in for me. EVE has always ran super smooth for me for the past year, with everything set to High. 30-45 fps no matter what I was doing. Now it's unplayable with 1.5. I got 2-5 FPS when not even doing anything.
Ever since the winter expansion came out I haven't been playing much since as soon as Incarna was gone. I dock at the station and my EVE Client crashes to desktop. Months go by updates come out, I dock at the station after doing something and crash to desktop. To the point of not even wanting to play just make sure my queue was up.
Now my frame rate is totally gone.
And FanFest is coming too, so seems CCP is more in toa "Party at the Top of the World" then testing this patch. :/

Well this updated didn't change anything, the Mac version is still unplayable for me. I was always so proud how things with EVE seemed equal between the two systems.
Now I restarted last night in Bootcamp, updated EVE. Same computer yet my frame rate is back to being what it was before in Mac OS, with no signs of trouble at all. Not only that, I noticed the PC version of the launcher is much different then the Mac one. The PC one, gives you the numbers of players online, more buttons, ones for plex's even the options are different and have more things to choose from.
I've never been a fan of launchers for games, and I don't like having to start my game before I start my game. Even with the update tomorrow there is not even a hint there is anything wrong with the Mac Client / Mac Launcher.
I really don't think this will even be addressed until after there FanFest. |

Still nothing, my ticket I opened on the 16th is still open and have never heard anything about it or any replies. What is bothering me aside from not evening being able to play on the Mac. Is that nothing is being said at all. Either it is so broken they have no idea why.
It would even be better if they said "We are aware of a problem for the Mac Client, but can't give a time frame for a fix" that would at least be something, but we're not evening getting that.
When I tried a few minutes ago, the launcher updated but it seemed to do nothing.

Ok my EVE is back to normal. When I started up EVE a new window popped up briefly and it said it was fixing errors in the launcher, it quickly went through. Then the launcher came up, the launcher itself didn't update anything. I logged in the splash screen ships seemed to move better, then I got to the Captains Quarters and my frame rate was back to normal. I have EVE open right now in the background. What ever it was, had something to do with the back end of the launcher it looks like. |
