I had never experienced it myself until today (except for fleet fight during MassTest), but my client just grey/white screened and became unresponsive.

So if you guys just tried a stealth patch on it, it didn't work.

I'd also like to add my hat to the ring here, I multibox 8 accounts and randomly every couple of hours one will stop responding in the manner described, never happened before.

Lock ups here also. Happened this morning and yesterday. Both times happened while mission running so no ship losses, just annoyance.

Its happening here too.
Whitescreen goes up, the char didnt logoff from game while client is crashed like he is there and working.

Here (for now at least) is happening with just 1 character and just while i dualbox this toon with others.


The crash seens to be very random

Same issue here. Clients will lock up randomly on 2 different computers with very different hardware configs (one nvidia/intel, another amd/ati).

This ^

i have 4 accounts i play with, and it is extremely random on choosing who locks up and who stays online. This has been going on for me ever since this newest patch and i'm going to write a petition because i don't see any good information about this bizarre problem. i've used the repair tool, i've reinstalled and i even went to different computers to see if it still had that problem - it still did!

It was so bad, when i was doing a HQ incursion, the FC actually had this problem JUST as his dps squads warped off. he was still in game but he just white screened and STAYED IN THE GAME while sansha was beating on his machariel. he was stuck in the last pocket of a TRCR which he is very lucky that his logi stayed behind, even then it was a frantic and people almost lost ships

novah soul - you're lucky you didn't lose the ship, this bug forces you out but acts normally in the eve universe

CCP, you need to do something about this bug, it's obviously a A softlock bug that needs to have priority, it isn't repairable and it's causing problems. I'm writing a petition now since is continueing to happen even when i try to fix it with conventional methods

Confirming that this needs to be fixed, like, yesterday. Haven't lost any ships yet to it, but over the course of a 3hour POS bashfest, we had me (dread), 2 other dread pilots, 2-3 subcap pilots, and a SC pilot have this happen at random times. Each time, the person affected had the white screen and had to alt-F4 and relog. Every time, the person in question stayed in game as if they were still there. An issue this serious will result in lost ships, and I guarantee it will be a "LOGS SHOW NOTHING" situation since the affected people don't seem to e-warp.

This just happened again, twice within 20 minutes. What am i supposed to do when my isk generating pilot cant play because it spends more time looking at a greyscreen than space? how am i supposed to fund the alts i am training up for leadership and another for exploration.. i cant. Basically untill ccp fixes this, assuming they can/do well i cant play, or pay. Its beyond frustrating, its worse than being pvped, at least i can shoot back, i cant do much of anything on a grey screen thats "Not Responding"!

Oddly enough I have experiences this same "white screen" issue, though my client doesn't actually freeze, I can still manipulate the camera (even though I can't see space) and everything, but it's just all white with a few artifacts of the UI still present.

I'm running Windows 8 x64 with 16GB of RAM.

so after many variations of:

reinstalling
repairing tooling
clearing cache
going to a completely different computer all together (which prooves it was something in this patch)
updating windows to current versions

i still get white screens after 20minutes to 1 hour where i have 4 clients running, sometimes even having just 2 clients up.
i've locked up many random times when scanning, mining and in incursions

i'm going to be expiring many of my accounts because petitioning this obviously hasn't helped as they admit that ccp does not support multiple clients running at the same time yet they promote having "sidekicks" and "get your new alt today" ads which i take as an incredibly offensive excuse. What is worst is, i used to have 15 clients running at once all day long for several months BEFORE THIS PATCH and NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM UNTIL THIS RECENT PATCH - that in its self is sound information

I can't even log in now after todays patch. Worked fine on the first login, then after I logged out and tried to relog the client won't even load. It just quickly flashes the installer and closes. Tried the repair tool and nothing.

Confirming this is still occurring as of yesterday. Seems to be random, has happened to me in times of almost no activity...mining in a very quiet system, and times with very heavy activity.

Please CCP, atleast tell us you are aware it is a problem and are working to fix it?

If the fix was today's(Tuesday):

Quote:
Fixed a client freeze that occurred in rare situation where there were lots of effects.


Then i would call it not the same thing.

We are logging this occurring while there is the exact opposite of "lots of effects"...unless you have now added a whole lot of needless effects for a single screen doing a very simple activity with no other ships on grid...
