EVE General Discussion

Can we start patching already?

Just don't forget to manually backup your Settings folder first... just in case. ;)

good luck folks!

I want to notify you guys of certain inconsistencies you're introducing to DED-rated plexes in lowsec with the brash change to T3 limits. You see, 5 and 6/10s allow battleships, but all of a sudden, because 3+4/10s in high-sec would be too easy to do with T3's, you're not going to allow T3's in them? Why are there even 4/10s in highsec? Why does the change have to blanket every 3 and 4/10 in lowsec, too? Why doesn't lowsec have 7/10s?

4/10 - T2 Cruiser
5/10 - Battleship
6/10 - Battleship

A bit of a jump up, don't you think?

I'm looking forward to this expansion. I'm also looking forward to the end of all the questions regarding BC's Dessies and the rest. I'm also looking forward to the influx of tears of people that didn't make it.

Let the good times roll.

it is fine to have a 5-hour down time for the new version, but shouldn't CCP release the updated package by now? The new data package should be ready for now, shouldn't it?
I thinks most of us are waiting for it in front of the computer and certainly we don't want to start the downloading right after the down time.

Good luck CCP

I have read so much complaining...

I wish for one week those of you who are complaining and bitching would have to suffer through a major update, suffer through the hours of hours looking at code, testing code, reading over and over and interacting with your peers just to make sure you got everything as nearly perfect as humanly possible.

Of course perfection does not exist in human experience, we can only strive for perfection as a goal, yet never attain it.

Imagine if you will working at a job where you regularly work overtime to resolve issues your clients and customers have no clue you have resolved before they ever became an issue. Imagine resolving issues before the majority of your customers discover there ever was one, imagine people you do not know, attacking this system you have built over a decade, attempting to bring it down, damage or otherwise cause issues and problems. And then imagine, the very customers you serve, bitching and complaining, without having not even the slightest clue of all the hard work, energy, stress, education, collaboration, preventative maintenance, lost weekends and family time, and on and on and on. Then perhaps, just maybe, you will begin to understand the incredibly difficulties that these people face on a regular basis, and never sung as heroes but by few.

You pay a pittance, an insignificant little tiny amount of the total cost to make this place available to you, to enjoy. And yet you expect so much, demand even more, and in your crass ignorance demand things to be as would please you.

For those of you that understand, and conduct yourself with the grace and dignity that EVE, CCP, and all their employees deserve, I commend you. And many if not most without fully understanding what is involved, I commend you as well. For you, this post is not.

But for those of you with only complaints and not compliments, you disgust me. I hope someone shoots you down like the dogs you are, in high, low, null or wormhole space. Over and over and over again!

Until you know, until you have worked your butt off for ungrateful and unknowing customers that don't really care at all about the human cost of what you are doing, for them, you have no place to talk. You should reserve your posts until you understand how insulting you are in posting what you already have, and if you had a wisp of any intelligence you would realize that you do not know, and should apologize for not knowing and posting on that which you shouldn't.

im glad i set a few days of training, i dont get my faster internet till tomorrow

Are you done yet, are you done yet, are you done yet?

I'm not impatient
