Hey guys,

Downtime today will be extended until 12:00 UTC while we resolved an issue that has occurred during start up.

Please feel free to discuss the downtime extension in this thread, as it will be used for any updates required.

Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

UPDATE - 11:38 UTC - We are currently preparing to reboot the Tranquility cluster.



all it would have taken to prevent a lot of the client base been at your throat, is for 1 member of CCP to try logging in before opening it to the world after having deployed a patch...........not exactly brain surgery is it?

They do it alredy? I thought that is what VIP Mode is for.


Correct Smile



Ahhhhh, so "VIP" actually stands for "unpaid QA plebe" ... I see what you did there, very tricky.

The bulk data repaired my armor \o/

There's nothing worse than an EVE player, generally considered to be top of the food chain in the MMO world, that cannot smacktalk with wit and coherency.

Or, you know, the irate amongst the 'client base' could remember it's only a video game and those who are old enough to boil water without parental supervision could go make a cup of coffee or something.

If you're going to troll, at least do it with a good post. That was terrible. Roll




your answer to the question was terrible ...
so is ccp's communication at the moment: no info ahead about this patch, no info about its content and well in other matters ccp acts poorly as well

UPDATE - 12:00 UTC - Tranquility is online and accepting connections.



Just cause I'm an uneducated **** when it comes to technology, why is Tranquility a "cluster"?

As near as I can tell by looking, the patch was a fix for the incorrect shaders on the Damnation model. The skin looks darker now, there wasn't enough data in that patch for it to be much else and then there's also this.

It's basically a big cluster of servers all networked together to run EVE. Smile

Ah, cool. I saw your thread yesterday but it was before anybody responded and I didn't follow it later.

But why not to put short note about it in patch notes? Clearly it was "urgent" enough to release fix without waiting for Rubicon bundle fixes/goodies. Unless they needed to sell some extra tinfoil ASAP :)

I found pumpkins in my patch! Shocked

And for Duran, there are multiple reasons why Tranquility is a "cluster". P

I like how they are avoiding answering the "what was the patch about"...and are more concerned with answering the all important "why is TQ a cluster" question...lol

WHAT was in the patch!?


Come on guys, you made so much progress after the non-documentation-issues of 2010, don't lose it now and return to the old ways.

What was in the patch?



Funny (we like that)... but not acceptable:

Ditto here and for a few others. Purged the cache and it still found nothing to update.
