Greetings all,
Just a quick follow up to let you know what was going on server side with the fleet battles today.
Right as the first battle in MSHD-4 commenced, we got our usual notification that the CPU on the node supporting that solar system was heavily loaded. Within a couple of minutes the node had died - somewhat unusual. Over the course of the next hour or so, the node died multiple times, and an analysis of the system logs showed that it was not responding well to the high load.
At this point, we re-mapped the fleet battle to one of our new "dedicated" nodes. These were installed recently in the cluster and have around 16gb of RAM, and faster CPU than others. They also run a special 64-bit EVE server (thanks to StacklessIO we can do this now) that allows them to use this extra memory.
Once the system was remapped, it seems that the newer hardware responded quite well to the fleet battle, and did not experience the same crashing issue as the regular node did. Our server boffins will be going over the data from this next week, so expect some more juicy information about all this stuff soon.
Fly safe,
Mindstar
LOL what a c.r.a.p. do you really think we believe in this. Anyway another system (M-OEEB) crashed aswell several times (which happened also few days ago).
Anyway props to everyone friendly or hostile who had patience to wait stucked and desynced for hours last few weeks and all that for only 14.95$ per month.
P.S. Its time for new devblog about ambulation, or correcting spelling mistakes in Zimbabwe client so we can forget that we are paying for the product thats broken for years.
Cya guys in M-O :D
Actually, I found his post to be informative and factual.
Unlike your pointless, bitter rant.
I know that a lack of lag generally means the NC losing since its the sole mechanism you've relied upon to 'win' fights for the past few years, but really... get over yourself.

Surely you jest. But then what battles have you been in lately other than FW.
Might I suggest you check your corp ticker before calling into question anyone elses PvP ability or experience

To be clear I was not calling into question O Thiefs or his corps pvp experience. I was calling into question his knowledge that NC uses lag for our benefit. Last time I checked it was BoB that seems to understand and use lag to their benefit. As to Tgrads, we have not been involved in FW but we do our share of fielding pilots into NC fleets.
You must be new to the NC.
By the way, you might want to brush up on your FW game mechanics knowledge. Alliances can't participate.

Nice that you tested a new node setup, but the obvious point needs to be brought up:
This is yet another example of BOB getting special treatment above and beyond what "normal" alliances (ie one that doesn't have half the dev team playing for). I've been in many huge battles, battles a lot larger than MSH, and not only has CCP done jack about it during the fight, they never have reimbursed ONE loss of mine that happened due to node issues.
If you are going to step in and boost a node for one particular battle, IMHO you are obligated to do so for EVERY battle. The live environment should never be used for testing, especially if it's done in a way as to give one in game entity (BOB) an advantage that you don't give everyone else.
If the node reinforcement wasn't requested by a member of the NC, you might have a point.

You lost at least half your BS fleet with only killing one GBC BS before the node died and you're trying to tell us that you were winning that battle?
The ignorance of the Northern monkeys gets better by the day.
Gee I stopped counting your losses on our KB at over 80. Perhaps Sir, you should post your own losses so you can get a better count.
www.killboard.net is your friend
of course, you only lost the fights because of the node reinforcement... nothing to do with BoB being better than you... no, that can't be it... everyone knows that in lag-free fights on reinforced nodes only the devspoilters win and good FC'ing can't possibly work

you should stop posting really, its embarrassing for your alliance
Whats embarrassing is someone without a clue trying to attention seek here. Oh wait, you are looking for a new corp to join and you hope to suck up to a BoB corp. Amirite?
Are you saying waagaa doenst have a clue? You know he FC's, right?
