Are you intending to reimburse training time loss for the delay? I planned a skill that was due to be completed at 18:35 UTC (later than the originally advertised downtime). Thanks |

Simple solution to CCP extending downtime: ANY additional seconds/minutes/hours/days/months/etc added to the downtime for a patch shall be refunded to the player, no sense in us losing money for poor patch preparation beforehand (sorry to be mean but after 8 years of this it ain't gonna pass with me anymore). |

Why i ask we always believe we can play on an afternoon when patch is going up? i mean is always late. i wish the patch is worth it and doesn't make the client super slow as in duality otherwise i wait for not being able to play later!
aaaarghhh!

Originally by: Hakaru Ishiwara The briefness of the patch notes is scary. Whenever CCP replaces large chunks of stuff(tm) with other stuff(tm) features have a tendency to work 'differently' or gosh break. It would be a pleasant surprise to have found that CCP properly tested this patch. 
Patch teesing is for sissys! Let the dwindling player base test te paach. (yes I know my spilling sicks! will be better in the next poutch) |

Just saying. No need to panic.
I've been running two EVEs simultaneously with my 8600gt, it's a bit tacky, but still manageable. With one client running I'm still satisfied enough with the performance not to decide upgrading the graphics card, because it would mean upgrading everything else as well. |

Originally by: Kerppe Krulli The problem is being optimistic in their ability to patch anything. They should say the server will be down 24 hrs and when they get it up in 18 hrs everyone will praise them for a job well done.
In the IT World,this is called demand management. I suppose CCP has never heard of ITIL |

Hey CCP,
maybe you should think about patching at US-TZ. I don't consider it being friendly ruining our afternoons so often. Especially not on my free ones!
Now you are forcing me to take care of my EVE-business at 6am in the morning (if you are able to get tq up till then, I won't bet) after my nightshift... NOT FRIENDLY!!
Sooooo.... 1 patch EU-TZ, 1 patch US-TZ.. and so on... that would be fair imo.
k, enough wining.. needed to be said :)
(btw: I wouldn't have a job if I would work as reliable as you announce your uptimes) |

At least be conspicuous in modifying that post. You modified the extended time as if it were alway 18:30 without indicating a new problem. You should tag the time change as an update and why. |

Originally by: space ganelon CCP, take as long as you need. Just please fix it so that when someone logs out, they're online indicator switches to "offline". One little correctly filled in red square, that's all I ask. Not even very many pixels, and it does not need to be rendered in 3D or fly smoothly around the screen. Was green. Now red. Ver' simple, ver' easy. -space

I like the thought... but money is never going to get reimbursed, maybe 1sp for every 10-20 seconds of extra downtime perhaps? :) |

Obviously, a 24 hour patch announcement would not cause any uproar, right? |

I just like how people are so impatient. Every time we go through this... I mean come on. I've even learned that before patch day, play a little longer, suffer from the loss of sleep, go to work (cause you know... I have a life and things to take care of) and have a skill in my trainer that takes more then a day (Medium Energy Turret 5)
So I am just laughing at all the Q-Q that the server ain't up. Oh Boo-Hoo they are taking to long. I don't suppose you ever stopped whining long enough to reflect on your own shortcomings though did you? you never considered that maybe they take so long to make sure everything work proper? to give the endless hours of your non-existent life (Seeing how you are on here Q-Q'ing) some quality, maybe to help you? So just maybe you'd think of something more worthwhile to do with your life besides sit at your screen all day watching pointlessly over a thread that goes a page a minute? |

Edited by: Todd4921 on 31/05/2011 16:56:42 Look on the bright side,anyone who attacked a POS that has gone into reinforcement mode will have the reinforcement timer down with the enemies having no chance to repair it at all. Im fine for entertainment,ive got more movies than there is space on the tranq server(Well,i doubt it but whatever) |

Cure for Patch day Blues.
I set up a gate camp at the bottom of the hill by the T-intersection. Not much moving till I see a 4 wheel drive John Deere with a 30 row planter in tow. Frickin excellent. As he comes in range I lock him up and hit the scram, wtf... he must be stabbed...
I look at across the field to the road coming out of town and sure as **** here comes Concord (Town Marshal). I quickily warp back to the house and cloak up. Win! |

Quote: The Mayan calendar is divided into Seven Ages of Man. The fourth epoch ended in August 1987. The Mayan calendar comes to an end on Sunday, December 23, 2012. Only a few people will survive the catastrophe that ensues. In the fifth age, humanity will realize its spiritual destiny. In the sixth age, we will realize God within ourselves, and in the seventh age we will become so spiritual that we will be telepathic.
Makes for a good movie in any case maybe I can ask god to flicker the lights for you for atmosphere? |
