It should have been on the main window rather than on the news (even if it is on side). Not everyone reads the news as it is updated daily with role playing elements of the game that some people aren't interested in (me being one of them). It was a bit short notice and should have at least been in the main window

Not gonna happen, the ones who have it in their head that every american is just another ****** waiting for his chance are going to express that view at the slightest opportunity, including us expressing a fairly valid complaint. Wow... apparently the name of Germany's leader during WW2 is censored here. And they call US fascist. ;)
Don't worry, though, we'll get to laugh next year when they decide to have a 25-hour dt on Labour Day (may 1st), and they ***** about how the european community has been wronged.
I am sure if CCP did it on a European holiday the Euro's would complain as well. But CCP would never do anything to upset them. When I first started playing EvE in 2003 all the Aurora events happened while Americans were still at work/school. I just wish CCP would keep its American playerbase in mind. I read the patch notes and there is nothing there that could not wait until Monday. -------------------

For quite some time Europeans were paying more for EVE than US citizens, so I'm not so sure that "CCP would never do anything to upset them".

That might have been because it was during Icelandic working hours.

If possible, yes, just as they should everyone else - if there's a big holiday in any country with a significant player base, it would be nice if they considered that in their scheduling.

Personally thinking CCP wants me to get divorced....
As Thanksgiving is a family day; and the family waits to leave for the days events - I'm sitting here awaiting servers to come up so I can change skills.
Explain that to wifey!

What are you talking about?? They take the servers down everyday 11:00-12:00PM GMT and do updates (like this one) around this time also. This means that it does affect most Euro users. We are closer to this time zone than the US. I am in the UK and this means that Eastern time US is 5 hours behind. This means at 11:00 (when updates are done) it is 6:00 AM Eastern US time. The West coast is even earlier (8 hours)! So again this would be 3:00 AM. If anyone is getting preferential treatment it is you US guys. The DT and updates are done when most Americans are asleep.

Great Job CCP, patches on the last 2 US Holidays. Good following your own time estimates. Big question when will the patch be finished?

Yes, because you just have to get up at 7 AM US time on a holiday to play EVE. |

No, the world doesn't revolve around the United States - that would be freedom, but that's another story. The fact that this is heading towards a country bashing thread is ridiculous imo.
I wish you all the best, and hope the patch goes smooth - Disapointed I didn't get to kill some rats whiles enjoying a fresh cup of coffee...
Nice to have a 'game' that means so much to so many - Look forward to the patch and look forward to being productive in game soon.

It would be nice to have some warning that this was happening. I didn't see or hear a word about this yesterday when I logged in and out of the game. ------------ Improvize. Adapt. Overcome. |

Whats about the "patches on tuesday" scheme? Anyways, I think announcing a patch 24 hours before it actually happens is not enough time. Especially in a game where skills train offline.
IMHO announcing patches 2-3 days before the deployment would be very appreciated by the playerbase. (at least by me)

Originally by: sion drifter the patch sounds great.. here's my question:
Who decided to patch on Thanksgiving day? Is this the same person who decided to patch on Saturday?
Thanksgiving is a US holiday, not an Icelandic one and is a normal workday for us.
Due to the Thanksgiving holiday, the EVE Online Store will not ship out any orders on Thursday, November 27 and Friday, November 28. All orders placed after 10 am EST on Wednesday, November 26 will be shipped out on Monday, December 1
So you guys don't recognize US holidays huh?
Operations, deployment and maintenance of Tranquility is done from Reykjavfk, Iceland (Tranquility is located in London, UK).
The original plan was to deliver all post-Quantum Rise last Tuesday (25 Nov) but we decided to split up the release and deliver the critical fixes in 1.0.1 last Saturday (22 Nov) so players would have a better weekend experience. We then had to postpone the second part until tomorrow, Thursday (27 Nov).
The EVE store is located in Atlanta GA, USA. Our US office observes US holidays.
Bad decision. Use your head next time. Us Americans are a large part of your playerbase and you should not be deploying patchs on our holidays. Thanks for your proper consideration in the future.

This is bad customer service.
Lets say I live in Israel and run a company that does 1/3 its business in Europe - even though I may not recognize the Holiday myself for common sense business reasons I would take into account in planning my operations.
If you think corp is different than a guild or clan you have some insecurity issues.

Haven't read the whole thread, but patchnotes don't seem to mention the DD/HIC Bubble thing... are they telling us that ships inside HIC bubbles are *supposed* to receive no damage from doomsdays?
Hilarious if true. I can see entire fleets turtling up like a roman garrison under cover of magic HIC shields...

No but 1/3 - 1/2 half the player base should effect the center of mass.
