EVE General Discussion

As predicted, this has now become another useless incarna thread, luckily I could get some kind of answer from CCP before the spam crew checked in.

Found your problem ;)

Thank you for that information it is good to hear that we will eventually be getting ship spinning back. :) I actually never thought I would miss it that much but I do as it is so much better than staring at the door. :(

One of my main grievances has been that CCP have not answered the questions put to them on the forum and not always been forthcoming with answers/information it is nice to see an answer and that you intend to be more active on the forum. I know it takes time to reply to posts and try and answer some of the questions the Eve community put to you but I think if there was more of this there would be less of us lot moaning and complaining. No answers often spark speculation which is not always a good thing.

Anyway it was your post that prompted me to make my first post on the new forum. (Have a like for taking the time to reply)

The return of ship spinning is probably more highly anticipated than the upcoming supercap nerf. After all 99% of time in EVE is spent ship spinning in one form or another.

Yes anyone can do that, but unfortunately there's a lot more than "scraps of info supplied by the Devs", there's actually a whole bunch of fairly detailed lore, with which casual decanting every time you dock is contradictory.

CCP could alter the lore to suit the new changes ("Stop press: amazing new technological breakthrough allows capsuleers to decant from their pods at the drop of a hat!"), but until that's done, or until we get a system where decanting is an option, the current system is jarring to those of us who have been immersed in the game while following the lore.

CCP should either:

1) Have CQ as an option off of Hangar, as was promised; or

2) Change the lore to suit casual decanting.

Doing neither of these things is resulting in a drip feed of annoyance to the game's Explorers.

You can always ship spin in the fitting window.

you are aware that ATI/AMD have always been superior in the thermal management department right? and have been superior performance for more than half of the time.

nvidia just has better marketing.

I bolded and underlined the important part of my initial post.

EVE is the only game that heats my card up above 75C. I get that the tolerance level of the card will allow for temps > 90, but EVE is the only one of all the games I play (Unreal 3 engine,crysis 2 engine,Starcraft w/maxed settings) that heats up my graphics card. It's not Nvidia and there's a sticky in this section of the forums asking if people are having heat issues.

It only happens with CQ running, EVE is not playable with 3 clients 2 idle + CQ running. My temps go up to 85C and framerates drop below 20fps while the game begins to become unresponsive after long periods. I installed some 3rd party fan software that kicks my fan speeds up earlier. Basically, stock your fan only spins at 50% its capability, when it heats up, the fan goes faster, well, I have my fan start at 70 when my GPU surpasses 68C then jump to 90% @ 75. However, this is very loud. I've upgraded my stock cooling and insured that I have proper ventilation for my computer.

EVE is unique in that it's one of the very few games out there where multiple clients.

I used to run 6-7 clients when we had the old station environment.

The retort "upgrade your ****" when I've got a year and a half old $400 graphics card that works perfectly fine with any other game on the market is not the proper response CCP should take on this. Especially for a game that REQUIRES alts to play.
