It's disturbing how many people didn't read the last devblog where they clearly explained that rollbacks and tranquility don't always work.. or the part where they explained how they test the hell out of things on singularity but it still occasionally goes buggy on tranquility.



They did read it, they're just idiots.


That is said by devs in EVE since the first patch that went wrong. If people were to learn that, they would have had by now.

But yeah, now that I know I can safely log my usual 5, 8 alts, you can leave it as it is.

At least the people multiboxing wont be just pilling clients and multiplexing input. (You know a lot still does when see them).

12:29 eve time 1/9/2015......... After reading what was going on and having problems my self. Went back and logged on 1 toon then the other. So it would seem they have fixed it for the time being.

Was able to log in all Characters.

Current online count is pretty interesting.
So almost each person login 2-3 accounts.


Why we don't get this juicy data on your graphs CCP?Pirate

i would say about half of players use 1 account, but the other half use 1-3. Then we got people who use a number of accounts that i could only say is impressive. Used to know a player who ran 26 at the same time. Chewed through null roids faster than rats could spawn.

Claims to be fixed, yet still sub 10k players online.


Soo. CCP how about reversing that key-broadcast ban now? Might help pad the numbers until this **** storm rolls over. :D

Looks like Elite True Solo PVP™ is back.

Post with your NPC alt main and not your main main alt!

Nooo it's fixed :(

Alts shouldn't be allowed! Down with links! Down with bots! Down with scout alts! Up with true content!

ahhhhh Patch hiccup bawwing. Come on folks. Spill more of those tasty tears.



Hahahahaha "hiccup".....I would say more like a patch stroke. When you sell people on the "power of two" for years, something should tell you to roll back the patch when you break that power that people are paying for.


"Power of Two" As in two people, not one person and a small army of simultaneous alts.

The guys at CCP dont even play EVE.... and you expect them to multibox?

that's news to me. Guess CCP Manifest faked his last video upload.

Seriously?
A 2+ hour blurb for rookies no-one but the most masochistic is going to sit through? (IS NOT PLAYING EVE)

As for the videos content - Someone even mildly interested in playing Eve for the first time is going to give it a miss 15 mins in (if they last 15 mins that is). (worst thing is, he more than likely got paid to spend his time this way)

Any good tutorial is short concise and to the point - not 2hrs plus of "why am I watching this"

My opinions are mine.

  If you don't like them or disagree with me that's OK.- - - - - - Just don't bother Hating - I don't care

It really is getting harder and harder to justify $23 a month for each sub.

We have deployed a patch to fix this issue.

Please close your EVE Client and EVE Launcher and then restart the Launcher. This will update the client removing the bug.

Well the video isn't much playing, but devs do play EVE. they just have a few restrictions.

For the lols:

Quote:
Another one got caught today, it's all over the forums. "Those multiboxers, they escalate us. We come in a reasonable ship, they lose, they come back with 3, 5 .. 10. They detroy us, and they call it pvp. They must be communists, they must not know democracy."

But did you, in your three-piece psychology and 1950's technobrain, ever take a look behind the eyes of the multiboxer ?
Did you ever wonder what made him tick, what forces shaped him, what may have molded him?

I am a multiboxer, enter my world...
Mine is a world that begins as a rookie... I'm smarter than most of the other rookies, this crap they talk about solo pvp bores me...
Damn underachiever. They're all alike.

I'm in a cruiser. I've listened to agents and veterans explain for the fifteenth time how to fit and fight. I understand it. "No, Ms.
Smith, I know how to fight solo, I just dont see why should I limit myself to that"

Damn kid. Probably a carebear. They're all alike.

I made a discovery today. I found out that some people actually cant control two mouses or keyboards at the same time. Wait a second, do that is cool. It does what I want it to. If I make a mistake, it's because I screwed it up. Not because it is impossible for a human to do that, or becaus it feels I am cheating...
Or feels threatened by me...
Or thinks I'm a smart ass...
Or doesn't like others having what they cant

Damn kid. All he does is play games too seriously. They're all alike.

And then it happened... a door opened to a world... rushing through the multiple screens, like a drug through an addict's veins, an electronic pulse is sent out from multiple directions, a refuge from the day-to-day incompetencies is sought... a way of occupying all my capabilities is found.

"This is it... this is how I enjoy it..."

I know everyone here... even if they are all me, may never hear from them besides my own thoughts... I know you all...

Damn kid. Probably has no one else to play with. They're all alike...

You bet your ass we're all alike... we've been spoon-fed honor bull when we wanted challenge... the bits of challenge that you would choke upon through were pre-chewed and tasteless by mechanics protecting you from us. But not here, not EVE.

We've been tried by sadists, or ignored by the media. The few that had something to teach found us willing pupils, but those few are like drops of water in the desert.

This is our world now... the world of the alts and blobs, the beauty of the concert played with both hands at multiple input devices. You call us cheaters ! We explore limits... and you call us cheaters. We seek after knowledge... and you call us cheaters. We exist without race, without identity, without religious bias... and you call us cheaters. You build systems of ofensive morals, concept wars and name calling and lie to us and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the cheaters.

Yes, I am a cheater. My cheat is that of curiosity. My cheat is that of judging people by what they can accomplish or stand for, not what they show in killboards and smack talk. My cheat is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for.

I am a multiboxer, and this is my manifesto. You may stop one of my alts, but you can't stop me from having them ... after all, we're all one.
