Hi!
We are planning a mass test on Singularity on Thursday, April 14th, at 17:00 UTC (= EVE time)!

What exactly is being tested?

  • New fighters
  • Citadels
  • General client + server performance


How to connect to Singularity for this test:
Change the server from Tranquility to Singularity in the upper left corner of the new launcher and log in as normal.

Test steps:

  • Be undocked in FD-MLJ
  • Warp to Citadel A (Keepstar) and dock
  • Buy item from market and leave it in hangar
  • Undock from Citadel and watch/help it explode
  • Warp to X-BV98 gate
  • Jump to X-BV98
  • Warp to Citadel B (Astrahus)
  • Warp to Citadel C (Fortizar)
  • Not all: Dock at Citadel C
  • Shoot the Citadel C
  • Watch the Citadel C explode
  • Warp to Citadel B (Astrahus)
  • Start Fighting with fighters (No Doomsdays!)
  • When instructed to, Titans and Supercarriers activate doomsdays
  • Watch/Help Citadel B explode.


What else should I know?
Preferred ships: Carriers with fighters
Use the command /moveme to be moved to the start system FD-MLJ
2M Skill points will be awarded on Singularity for this mass test

Why would you find it necessary to respond to an event by saying that you won't be there?

I doubt very seriously that your absence will be noticed...

I am attempting to fit up a super in FD- but all of the normal heavy fighters and light fighters have been unseeded. Is this intentional?

It's not that the fighters aren't seeded, it's just that a lot of a-holes buy everything on the market.

SOLUTION:

1) Buy a Leopard for 100 isk,
2) Go 1 or two jumps.
3) Bug a freighter for 100 isk.
4) Buy fighters.
5) Fill it as full as you can.
6) Type, "/moveme" in any chat window.
7) Click on FD.

There ya go...

There must be a typo. "Titans AND Supercarriers activate Doomsdays"? I thought only Titans had Doomsdays, not Supercarriers.

Yeah, use the Supercarrier projected EW weapons I imagine.

Meanwhile in Australia, sets an alarm and wakes up at 4:00AM to participate in the mass testing. Realizes that 17:00UTC is at 3:00AM in Australia. All players i tell that on local chat instantly facepalm, and we then begin the facepalm mass testing :P

Anyways ive still seen the Citadels and they are pretty darn awesome. This is why i love this game. The developers are always releasing new updates as awesome as these citadels. Pretty disappointing that i didn't get to participate and get that 2 mil skill points though. but oh well ill just have to remember for next time

You are making mass tests fun. Well done. Big smile

Watching CCP annihilate rogue smart bombers was hilarious.


I'm quite looking forward to the Citadel expansion now.

Thank you for helping! Skill points have been applied.

Regarding results: We gathered performance data, found several smaller bugs and identified at least two important issues, one performance issue with jumping (the nearly endless jump to X-B) and the failure to blow up one citadel (the code did not handle a problem with ejecting ships well).

Iirc the plan was to get podded when inside a blown station and not fly safely away from it. Will that be tested in the next two weeks until the release? And the fanfest next week? Shocked
Man, you guys are crazy, how much work you put on yourself. Thanks a lot.Smile
I hope you get a little sleep sometimes. Big smile

This design changed at some point. If you are online you are being ejected from the structure when the citadel explodes. If you are offline, you will be emergency-warped at the next login.
