Average FPS during fight at the gate in EZA-FM, zoomed out (no brackets): 10
Average FPS - Zoomed in (no brackets): ~35 (due to gfx texture glitch)

Did you experience any disconnects or crashes? No
Did you notice any problems with the buff bar (above the ship ui)? Yes, had to duck 5 times to get UI
Describe your experience, make comments, suggestions, etc.: _really_ nasty missile effects that stayed on grid even minutes after they were fired. Sent a separate buggreport on this.

•Did you experience any disconnects or crashes? - no
•Did you notice any problems with the buff bar (above the ship ui)? - Yes, when hovered over them, it didn't tell me who it was from, rather [UI label....] and so on. Also might want to look into the transparency of some of the icons on the buff bar, on the warp scrambling you could somewhat see it as a white circle.

•Describe your experience, make comments, suggestions, etc.:

There was some rather weird turret effects that I kept getting hit with (even when people weren't shooting at me) after the mass test was over and I warped to the station.

My experience was that time dilation on a little more might have actually helped, I did get some module lag for about 30 seconds. Something else that annoyed me is that the new percentage indicators were hard/impossible to see on a light background, so perhaps a black outline / drop shadow of that text would help a little. Apart from those small things it was actually relatively smooth. Overview lag was, well, I could actually use the overview and scroll through it as it were normal. I liked that, and its sexy little gradient a lot.



Would have tried out the OSX client if it downloaded in time for it, but sadly, didn't.

Describe your experience, make comments, suggestions, etc.:

Getting pilots to follow orders on these tests looks about as easy as herding cats into a barbeque grill, lol.
I think this test was a good turn out of people (over 600 I think). My experience with this test is very comparable to previous tests.

Keep up the good work CCP.

Describe your experience, make comments, suggestions, etc.:

Only noticed on this client once that the HUD didn't come up when I undocked, but I believe people have already summited bug reports on that, so I won't clutter up the mail on it.

Pretty routine Test compared to the others. EWAR seemed to work against me at the EZA gate. Didn't see any problems there. Did notice that when switching back and forth between clients that the screen would have alot of white during the delay (kinda like a giant white explosion effect), but it would go away rather quickly and I could see the field of pilots. Oh... seemed like I was having some issues when we started the fight when trying to use the CTRL key to lock. Maybe the pilots were still invulnerable at the time after jumping. Thought I had waited long enough though.

Thanks CCP

Describe your experience, make comments, suggestions, etc.: It ran pretty well. It was a laggy but it was probably due to all the drones and wreckage. My armor repar unit was not repairing though.

* Describe your experience, make comments, suggestions, etc.: Experienced the no HUD phenomenon on undock from station, fixed with a dock + undock. The text fade effect at column boundaries on the overview is not practical and should have the option to be disabled. Whilst I appreciate it denotes more of the text can be displayed by expanding the column I would prefer to see the actual characters as this can help in differentiating overveiw objects.

Did you notice any problems with the buff bar (above the ship ui)? Wasn't targeted by ewar during the test. I did some testing afterwards and it was ok.

Describe your experience, make comments, suggestions, etc.:
A lot of peoples still don't seem to know what to do and have some trouble following the instructions. Also, sometimes we were receiving instructions by eve voice and my client had a few lag peaks at the same times complicating the understanding.

I saw a few missing texts for some UI label. I'm not sure if I have to do a bug report as it can be simply some unfinished work on the UI.
Armor, Shield, Hull status by numerical value : [no label: UI/Inflight/GaugeAbsolute]

Did you experience any disconnects or crashes? None
Did you notice any problems with the buff bar (above the ship ui)? No problems (i've been webbed and scrammed)
Describe your experience, make comments, suggestions, etc.: I had no great problems at all until the very end of the test (shooting NPCs spawns) when i had heavy grafical glitches, especially on missiles explosions animations and bubbles that i've never experienced on Tranquillity. These problems continued after docking and undocking but were solved logging off and relogging.
