Dr Sheepbringer	Posted - 2008.07.30 14:15:00 - [3] I'd like to report this thread for BS.
Hagis McBree Minmatar Lucky Star Enterprises The Gemini Project	Posted - 2008.07.30 16:13:00 - [4] Thanks for the update!
Ram Meldor Gallente Los Chupacabras	Posted - 2008.07.31 13:24:00 - [5] C'mon CCP guys! Have some respect for Mac Users Community here and give us some real and concrete infos about the future of mac version and the adoption of premium gfx in particular! I love this game, but you're ridicolously delaying some kind of answer or release date for months! Incredible way of thinking about "consumer satisfaction". Incredible!

Sorry for the delay and will update you next week. Ok, this is getting ridiculous. Been two weeks now. Just admit it that you don't have anything.
Pak Narhoo Gallente Pacific Starfleet Command	Posted - 2008.08.04 12:10:00 - [7] I made a rough timeline, emphasize on 'rough', timeline following the last 5 months--> And I like to start with the words by CCP Whisper in the "Trinity 1.1 Patch Timing - >>> Now with Patch Notes" thread from 2008.03.07 Quote: Now, while I can put my hand on my heart and claim with total honesty that there were good reasons to not deploy a Mac patch sooner, I cannot do the same for my omission to inform you, the users of the Mac client. One of the main things which makes EVE Online special is the degree of interaction the developers maintain with the playerbase, and not keeping you informed about something like this breaches that relationship. For that I apologise, and I will do my best not to have this happen again. Next moving forward in time 2008.04.18 - (by Ram meldor) Quote: Pre-mium! Pre-mium! Pre-mium! Pre-mium! "CCP, please! Please! Please! Tell us when to expect a Os X version that supports Premium Graphics. Give us a week, a month deadline! Give us a schedule. Or something like that! -- 2 months(-8 days) later with 0 response from within CCP on above topic-- 2008.06.10 - (by Kesper North) Quote: Request for CCP: Empyrean Age is out, can we get an update on Premium? 2008.06.19 - Reply from CCP Lingorm: Quote: We are writing a Dev blog that should be out next week. 2008.06.19 - Reply from CCP Lingorm: Quote: No donkey pron please. Dev blog due next week with updates on the Premium client for Mac and Linux. 2008.06.25 - Reply from CCP Lingorm: Quote: I is writing it now." 2008.07.11 - Reply from CCP Lingorm: Quote: have posted a quick note (In the LINUX forum) with the reasons the ann09ounced Dev Blog has been delayed. Sorry for the delay and will update you next week. 2008.07.11 - (Linux forum) CCP Lingorm: Quote: Apologies people. I know I said the dev blog would be out last week, but things have taken longer to organise than initially expected. <snipp> I will try to update this post next week with a better date for the blog. 2008.07.16 - (Linux forum) CCP Lingorm: Quote: We are also trying to get all the documentation and stuff in place to run the beta testing and such ... and this is proving more difficult then anticpated. Meeting was yesterday. Stuff was discussed. 2008.08.04 - (0) -- Think we missed the 'One of the main things which makes EVE Online special is the degree of interaction the developers maintain with the playerbase' boat. Originally by: Haakelen That is a terrible idea, you have no idea what you're talking about, please don't do it anymore.
Dr Sheepbringer	Posted - 2008.08.04 12:12:00 - [8] Edited by: Dr Sheepbringer on 04/08/2008 12:13:22 You missed the Q1 that was stated...well somewhere. Other than that, good posting!
Phersephone Caldari Stormlord Battleforce Vanguard.	Posted - 2008.08.05 11:36:00 - [9] This is getting silly now... and CCP wonders why it gets so much flak..
Dr Sheepbringer	Posted - 2008.08.05 12:03:00 - [10] Originally by: CCP Lingorm Sorry, was on leave last week and did not check the forums from hom e(Monday was a public holiday here in Iceland. Will go prod CCP Whisper as he is now handling this blog.

Dr Sheepbringer	Posted - 2008.08.06 06:11:00 - [12] Linux forum (they sure love me there...). There is also a delayed dev blog thread...and they suprisingly respond to that one...
Baron Erique Paxton Industries Paxton Federation	Posted - 2008.08.07 19:55:00 - [13] Take a look at this... CCP Whisper responded in this thread THIRTEEN MINUTES after the OP. Lemme say that again...THIRTEEN MINUTES. CCP Whisper... WHERE ARE OUR PREMIUM GRAPHICS?!
Dr Sheepbringer	Posted - 2008.08.08 05:52:00 - [14] Just shows that the dev responsible for mac client doesn't exist.
Hagis McBree Minmatar Lucky Star Enterprises The Gemini Project	Posted - 2008.08.08 15:08:00 - [15] the post you pointed out has an easy answer.. something CCP Whisper knows the answer to, and can respond to with a short answer. Our (and the linux issue) is a tad more complex. PS CCP I am finding it hard to keep defending you .. please at least throw us a bone.
Dr Sheepbringer	Posted - 2008.08.09 20:08:00 - [16] Seriously CCP, this is getting completely *****ed! It's a GOD DAMN BLOG!!! Not rocket science nor even a client! It's text! Text that you already have cough*!!! Seriously...WTF?
Bargematic	Posted - 2008.08.09 20:57:00 - [17] Edited by: Bargematic on 09/08/2008 20:58:46 Edited by: Bargematic on 09/08/2008 20:57:50 Edited by: Bargematic on 09/08/2008 20:57:29 Maybe its due to the same issue that plagues Premium Content in Crossover Games? If you chuck on test server you can see that everything renders properly. I would hazard to guess and I bet if somebody would actually respond this is the deal. There is a problem that hits Linux 0% of the time and Windows 0% of the time however it hits mac for one reason or another thus invisible stations in Crossover Games. Give it a look if you do not believe me. I think CCP is working hard to resolve this.. Give em a break :) BTW I have personally verified this and I am not one to defend a gaming company. I just call it as I see it. One more edit. I acheive higher FPS in Test Server with premium on Crossover Games than I do with Classic Content in the client.
Aurix Lexico Slacker Industries	Posted - 2008.08.10 03:18:00 - [18] Originally by: Bargematic There is a problem that hits Linux 0% of the time ... thus invisible stations in Crossover Games. Actually, stations (and stargates and capitals) didn't render in premium graphics/wine on geforce 7 series cards. This has been fixed though.
Dr Sheepbringer	Posted - 2008.08.11 15:08:00 - [19] It's been such a long a week that I found this while aimlessy roaming the net. I wonder what I shall find in the upcoming weeks.
Bargematic	Posted - 2008.08.11 21:48:00 - [20] Originally by: Dr Sheepbringer It's been such a long a week that I found this while aimlessy roaming the net. I wonder what I shall find in the upcoming weeks. Seriously is that needed? I explained above what is likely the problem and you can even verify it yourself. Please do the Dev's a favor and respond nice and not this garbage.. Its no wonder they wont speak with you. I know I would ignore if I were them.
Dr Sheepbringer	Posted - 2008.08.12 08:57:00 - [21] Yes, that could be the TECHNICAL problem, but I also haven't seen a single dev actually telling anything about it. This isn't so much about the premium client, it's about the lack of communication. Unless that technical problem somehow affects the physical movements of typing. Which I doubt. Also, they already stated that the blog has been written, but it's in "tech" so they need to translate it. So all and all...they have the material already... If it's THAT hard to understand and make it readable then CCP needs some serious documentation systems.
Dr Sheepbringer	Posted - 2008.08.16 07:16:00 - [22] I has update!!! RE: Mythical Linux/Mac dev blog... 2008.08.15 10:54:00 GM DiscoNap ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hi, Currently our Developers are working on it. I can sadly not give you any rough publishing gate on the dev blog you are asking for. Please let me know if you have further questions on this matter. Thank you for contacting Customer Support. Please do not hesitate to contact us again if you have any further questions or issues. Best regards, GM DiscoNap EVE Online Customer Support
Remus Navillum z3r0 Gravity Sylph Alliance	Posted - 2008.08.16 21:37:00 - [23] Well, that's pretty much the most uncertain answer I've ever seen. However, Casqade just responded to the another thread in this forum concerning flickery graphics, so it's evident that the devs at least read the forum, but they seem very tight-lipped about the dev blog and anything having to do with the dev blog. My bright-eyed, sunshine-vomiting optimism suggests me to think that they're keeping under wraps the fact that they've somehow redesigned the premium client in a native environment with OpenGL. And when they finally reveal it to us we'll weep with joy and lavish deifying praise upon them and offer to have their children. But that seems as remote a possibility as any.

And when they finally reveal it to us we'll weep with joy and lavish deifying praise upon them and offer to have their children. Almost drowned myself in my cup of coffee. I can understand that they wouldn't release the client, nor details. But creating a s**tstorm just due to not communicating is...well I have no idea behing that market trick. They could have just said "wait for two months" and we would have been "great, two frigging months...oh well, time to do missions". Now it's "where is it!! it's been two months when you said one week!!! WTF!! I really must be missing some marketing trick...and I happen to know something about that. Oh well, perhaps I should buckle myself up and get ready for a communication extravaganza!!! (...not)

Hi. I read a lot of things from the forum. I enjoy helping people out with their issues, finding out what is currently new and reminding people to bug report their problems. But when I look at the latest page on this forum I see maybe 2-3 threads where I could go in and provide some help.. Ok, just did it. The rest of the threads are about Dev blog and the premium graphics. Like Lingorm said, it has been delayed. And rather than saying "Next week", we will say "Soon" and "when it is ready". I understand your frustration, but let me assure you; we still like you, soon and when it is ready. Please keep the "bright-eyed, sunshine-vomiting optimism" up, it is inspiring, even though we are not redesigning the premium client in a native environment with OpenGL.

Case Reiderer Gallente Quantum Singularity Initiative	Posted - 2008.08.18 08:17:00 - [26] Good enough! Thanks.

DAMN! Well, can't win 'em all, I guess. All this means is you'll have to optimize the everloving **** out of the cider client.
Dr Sheepbringer	Posted - 2008.08.18 10:24:00 - [28] Originally by: Remus Navillum All this means is you'll have to optimize the everloving **** out of the cider client. True... might have been easier to go native Indeed, thank you for the update! "bright-eyed, sunshine-vomiting optimism" Damn, thats even better than "Glittering gems of hatred" :)
Joseph Emile	Posted - 2008.08.19 12:01:00 - [29] Awesome well thanks for the update and looking forward to using the premium graphics. Nice to know you are taking your time to make sure it will run perfectly when released
