This has been nothing but F-ing annoying... I'm so friggin' angry right now!!!!

Incarna as a whole has been NOTHING BUT A F-ING DISASTER CCP!!!

UI is super slow.
Docking/Undocking is super slow.
Overview doesn't update properly.
The gameplay overall is just a laggy mess!!!

Today, flying out of Enaluri, Salavat7 tried to convo me to invite me to a 1vs1. His Dramiel vs my Daredevil. I wasn't up for any soloing. So, I warped to Nennamaila and jumped. I warp from the gate to a safe spot over 300km off the gate. That safe spot has no celestials in the path either. 2 minutes later, Salavat7 shows up and in local asks to 1vs1 me. I decline and start putt-putting away from the gate so I could go off grid.

He uncloaks from gate cloak and he shows at 368km going 18m/s, so I'm not friggin' worried. TWO MINUTES LATER... he's locking me shooting me. Don't know how?!?!? HE'S AT 368km and still going 18m/s!!! How am I getting targeted by him, getting warp scrambled and fired upon?!?

There were 3 people in system. Salavat7, Me, and some dude that wasn't even on dscan. Nennamaila... NO ONE IN SYSTEM! There shouldn't be any lag!

My Antivirus is turned off, I'm on a friggin 20Mbps/5Mbps connection... HOW THE F is he still at 368km and 18m/s TWO FRIGGIN MINUTES LATER?!?!?!

So, once I'm over my friggin' astonishment of wtf was going on, I try to web and tackle him, but I was already at 1/3 armor... wasn't going to salvage that one and right before I get podded I see he's STILL at 368km and 18m/s! I mean seriously?!? This is like 5 minutes with Salavat7 being in system... LAG??? I think not!

I'm in a pod.... and viola!!!!!!! It's showing him at 8K m and going over 1000m/s. I mean really??? WTF CCP...

Incarna has been nothing but garbage. Usability is down the shitter, response time/lagginess has only increased and you're doing what...? Oh yeah... bringing out updates that break more things... Offlined modules, Cargo windows popping up, or how about this one:

[15:02:36] HaKyung > found a lovely bug earlier
[15:03:16] HaKyung > if you have module offlined and you are cloaked, right clicking it won't allow you to online it as you are cloaked
[15:03:24] HaKyung > but bring up fitting window and you can

REALLY?!?!?! What are you guys fixing?!?!? Seriously?!?!?

Your patch testing sucks!!!!

I'm not angry at my loss... I'm angry at CCP's upgrades (laughable term), testing and patch deployments lately. WTF is going on there?!?

Quit friggin' "upgrading" and FIX Eve!

Actually saw that, just saw the subject line and knew EXACTLY what you were talking about.

Thing is, I have a good connection and my system is a QX9650 @ 3.0 GHz with 8GB of RAM and two GTX280's in SLI... there should be NO excuse for the slowness going on with the client at all!

lol'd. This is a headache for you and other people. I would probably be a little angry too if my luck was as bad as yours.


One upcoming update you may be happy about is the hangar rightfully returned.

It's like, every update they put out, it just gets worse and worse and nothing is really fixed.

"Hey look... I can see my character now!!!!" (the 30 - 45 second load time for the CQ doesn't mean anything though, who cares about that)

Even with CQ turned off, the load time for docking and undocking has easily doubled if not tripled. There's no excuse for that. They said their new engine improved things, but it's been a friggin' nightmare and I can't see how it's not noticeable to CCP.


Nothing good has come from Incarna... not an iota of good. I was hoping they'd actually give an overhaul to their antiquated UI. But all they've done is managed to make it so that you have to:

1. Double click all links
2. Hover/Unhover the cursor over the X of a window to unhide the X.
and other issues

These, and other items, are immediately noticable, BLAM-in-your-face type bugs that are not getting taken care of. Where is the follow-through to resolve the issues?

FIrst they wanna screw people over with their micro transactions and now they're not fixing critical issues, some of which have been around since Apocrypha?

This is what we pay a monthly fee to them for? Go F2P, then I might be ok with something like this... but they rake in at least $359,760 per month if 24,000 players pay for a monthly subscription. That doesn't include people paying for ISK and what-not. Why are we getting garbage updates/patches?

Hell... half the time they lolz and play and think it's a friggin' game. They're a f-ing business. We pay them money and therefore expect reliability and a responsible system, but, even with their non-existent auditing the GM's can't even tell you if your petition is valid or not. Basically if it fits within their paradigm of what might sound like a reasonable request they'll reimburse you for something, if it doesn't then you're F'd and half the time they just don't want to reimburse you.

Lamest thing I've heard of yet being a GAME MECHANIC is http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Grid_Manipulation .

Grid Manipulation they call it... it's a flawed grid based system, and if you lose ships because 1/2 are on grid and 1/2 are not, they don't have a way to validate what was lost legitimately or not, and BECAUSE they can't, they call it "GAME MECHANIC".

F-ing lame!
