Tonight's patch, a whopping 102 megabytes for a minor version, will include the following features:

1) We will no longer be able to see ship bracket types on combat scan until we get them to 25% :(

2) Guns will now actually change ammo without sh+++ing themselves.

3) Nothing much else of consequence.

An awfully large patch for such a short list of fixes.

Incarna 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1b is gonna be hot tho! And Incarna 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1c will fix the bugs introduced in Incarna 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1, but not Incarna 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1b. Those are pushed back to Incarna 1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.

New bugs take up a lot of space.

Statement on behalf of CCP from Arnar Hrafn Gylfason, Senior Producer for EVE Online. Good communication and trust between CCP and the EVE community has always been a fundamental priority for CCP and will continue to be so.

sometimes art assets are snuck into patches early to reduce the size of a later patch. standard practice at most MMO companies.

Tedium and difficulty are not the same thing, if you don't realize this then STFU about game design.

Broken by this patch will be

Undocking, targeting, ejecting, all forms of trade, and armor reppers and last but certianly not least the human reproductive cycle


The last one is set to be patched out around 60 years from now~!

The human reproductive cycle is slated for Incarna 1.5 Extreme Edition (EVE Online Gold Account only, an extra $15 per month).

No, don't get me wrong. I love CCP, I'm much less pessimistic about their efforts than most of the wankers on here are. They seem to be doing a pretty great job in general at the time being given how few people they have actually developing their content at the moment.

I just thought it was amusing how large the patch was for such a small list of mechanical changes. Denidil was right of course, it's going to be mostly pushing assets; I'll be interested to see if they push any interesting new as-yet-unused assets.

This thread is just for happy badposting times.

P.S. you are bloody terrible for signing all your posts with your initials. That is just ridiculous.

1. This is the frakking 21st Century, since when has 102megabytes ever been a whopper?

2. Looks like CCP is trying to sneak in a few features. Who knows?

The thing is that when you look at it what are we really likely getting given Incarna 1.1 which had about the same size 'fix' list was 20mb..


20mb of Patch..

90ish Mb of Incarna Clothing?


I would not be surprised.. if that = your hidden 'assets'.. so in the next few weeks they can turn on those fancy new clothes they keep showing in worthless dev blogs of late.

The patch may also contain changes that have no discernible effect on the user experience. Or it may contain assets which will be used by future expansions. Or maybe someone added an extra 0 when typing up the patch notes. Either way, 100MB isn't much even on a dialup connection. Unless you live in Siberia and have an ultra-low bandwidth super-high latency satellite connection or something, in which case you can't meaningfully play EVE anyway and probably have bigger worries, like being eaten by bears. Big black Russian bears, with bees in their mouths, and when the bears roar the bees come out and swarm all over you and coat you in delicious honey. Shocked

Anyways, it's a patch, which fixes some problems, and is therefore probably welcomed by most sane players. Probably the Establishments update will be a few hundred megabytes in size.

Ah, so they're going a different direction with this patch?

Refreshing.
