Just make sure you queue up atleast a 15 day skill. Might be a good time to train titan. With CCP record the game will probably be unplayable for 14 days after the servers come up


I also suport the "no one logs in idea" that way I can get faster download speeds.


Wait eve was down for 14 days before?

it's been UNSTABLE for that long before.

Trinity was at least a week of touchy stability...

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Here's an idea: When the server goes up, no one logs in or updates for a while. Then we can laugh at the QA scrambling frantically to look for the bug in the network that seemingly keeps people locked out.

Frac that, I want my new tier 3 BCs, and the drag-n-drop to market quickbar for fittings and...

If CCP wants to really test time dilation during downtime do another Armageddon (all systems 0.0, all items seeded in every system, all characters max SP) day on Sisi during the downtime. Last time they did this the test server crumpled into a black hole and CCP has refused to do it again since. Probably because they don't want to have to explain to their hosting company why the building hosting the servers just burnt to the ground or disappeared into another black hole.

nope ?
When was that ?

If they didn't have as many users as now,
i'd even understand ... but nowadays ... hm.


Was a few years ago now, but was awesome fun at the time! Big smile

And you do know that CCP do actually expand their hardware over the years to cope with extra players? EVE would be pretty unplayable if we were still on 2003 hardware Blink


Oh it was on Singularity anyway ...
Now, that'd be nice.

And total carnage.

Omg ... lol

I fully support this ..

I was hooked reading "what was going on" in EVE during downtime when they launched the factional warfare stuff. The Concord Assembly being trashed, the invasion stuff ..

I know it probably was a bit of effort but the thing EVE has been lacking a lot of recently is immersive content provided by the CCP side .. Yes we have a sandbox, but sometime you need a few major "realistic" events to be constructed .. e.g. the Titan at Lumminaire etc.

That makes EVE Fun .. It makes it epic.
