Gundog Prime	Posted - 2004.07.19 20:41:00 - [1] Edited by: Gundog Prime on 20/07/2004 22:52:24 This is not about politics per se... This is not about grudges... This is about PvP on my PC! Until the 'Blanking' Question is fully explored, i.e can you somehow run EVE at icon level and thus speed up poor PC response time, i have to suspend myself from the PA. Simply put with my poor specs i can't be in ANY way effective. Engagements of more than 20 ships in total leave me with progressive screenshots. I don't begrudge the 70+mil i lost in my full implants, nor a simply replacable Tristan, but if i am unable to fight i find myself unable to exist in 0.0 space . I will not stay in a 0.0 alliance simply to be only effective in peace time, and thus just another beggar in space. For the time being i'll keep skilling my character obviously, but unless i can Blank, i can't fight. Should Blanking be allowed and possible with Software manipulation i will return and see if i can fight on using it. If not, and i fear it won't be, i shall have to hand in my resignation from PA and any 0.0 Alliance til further notice. It gives me no satisfaction to do this, i didn't mind the loss of my Implants if only i had had a fighting chance to do something other than be a target. I have been proud to have been a member of the Phoenix Alliance, i have been proud to stand in it's name (If only as a target) and i will miss many friends, and will probably still stay on TS if im allowed which i hope i am. The GODS guys and all the guys in PA i have chatted with in TS are good guys. I will make no statement on the GODS forums as to this, this is my official post on the matter. To most people this will be irrelevant but in ALL the games i've played i have NEVER found a group of people i'm prouder to be with than GODS.... Stoop, keep the guys safe ok? -------------------------------------------------------------- [email protected] - BEWARE THE CHEAP PAINT SIG -- Joshua Calvert, the true gamer's gamer

Hellek	Posted - 2004.07.19 21:36:00 - [11] I hope CCP adds an option to replace ship models with simple 2D bitmaps, that would bring decent players up to par with players using that exploit and at the same time also would not totally ruin graphics. It's sad to see you leave gundog, I hope you think about it again, but I can somehow understand you. For each ship that warps in (or is at the position where I warp to) I get a delay of 0.5-2 seconds, so if there are 30 ships, Eve freezes for about half a minute.

Gundog Prime	Posted - 2004.07.19 21:51:00 - [15] Edited by: Gundog Prime on 19/07/2004 21:53:30 Well the reply has been made, its official... Blanking is a bannable offence, so it seems CCP is happy to hand those with higher quality systems the upper hand. It's their decision, it's their game, and their choice... But without a way to minimize the GFX setup substantially i still feel its discrimination. But that's just IMHO. As such i tender my resignation from PA and GODS, i can't PvP without Blanking and i can't play if i get caught Blanking so i'm screwed...CCP's decision kills PvP for me and thus 0.0 space. Perhaps when i get my new PC i'll be able to come back... I still think it stinks but i don't run CCP I might leave this account in the hands of GODS to use while i use my 2nd one. That way i can contribute somehow... I'll mail u ingame about that Stoop -------------------------------------------------------------- [email protected] - BEWARE THE CHEAP PAINT SIG -- Joshua Calvert, the true gamer's gamer

Rizmordan Hillgotlieb	Posted - 2004.07.19 22:16:00 - [23] Don't let machine problems get you down Gundog. Do you need to upgrade? It might be easier than you think. Ask yourself 3 questions 1. Does my machine have the potential for an upgrade? 2. How much money am I willing to invest? 3. Do I know people I can get cheap/free computer equipment from? I have 3 machines all capable of running EVE - well (not stellar but enough for me to enjoy the game like everyone else). I was able to put them all together for a $900 cost to myself P4 1.6GHz 256MB ram 64MB video - cost $100 Athlon XP 2200 256MB ram 64MB video - cost $350 Athlon XP 2400 512MB ram 128MB video - cost $450 The stuff I paid for was motherboards, chips, memory, video cards, cases and atx power supplies. Stuff like floppy drives, CD-roms, Hard Drives, monitors, keyboards and trackballs (I hate mice) I acquired from friends who upgraded, co-workers who are tossing old machines and my old 200MHz and 800MHz systems. I even acquired a broadband router, CAT5 cables and a switchbox and cables this way. I'm not here to toot my own horn but to say it's quite possible on a fixed budget to build / make a capable machine from some decent new parts and some **e peripherals. Posting for Numbnutz**

Gundog Prime	Posted - 2004.07.19 22:22:00 - [25] Well the wife has a policy coming out in Sept that we are allocating some funds from for a new PC, with Tech Support from my Dad who runs the R.A.F Tech Flight in Kinloss i should be more than able to construct a decent computer with the funds available.... Could you recommend a more detailed look at the components i might need for 3 different strengths of PC... and cheers for the constructive help -------------------------------------------------------------- [email protected] - BEWARE THE CHEAP PAINT SIG -- Joshua Calvert, the true gamer's gamer

Xrak	Posted - 2004.07.19 22:23:00 - [27] Sorry to see you leave GunDog. Gfx are only part of video gaming, to some they are more important then others, if they were not important at all EVE would be entirly wire frame triangles. # Xrak DDNN I-have-a-$hit-computer-too B@stard
