The mains solution to these future patches is --- just don't buy a mac. For all of you computer age people out there like me the mac is good for two things - word processing and desktop publishing. Apart from that it makes a very good paper weight. |

Word processing? This is 2010. People dont process words anymore. Unless they have to use microsoft word. Then the processing is quite intensive I expect. I have to go work on my film editing now. On my paperweight.  |

I keep getting the "incompatible (protocol)" error come up yet according to the patch program, I am running the most up to date version (167...something or other) Why? Why wont you let me back in EVE? Have I upset you in some way and you are now exacting your revenge upon me? Or is something just totally screwed up here?  |

I couldnt agree more, however, mac IS a form of linux :P
Just like an Apple is a form of peach ? Mac OS X is based on BSD not linux. |

On that note, when CCP have extended downtime for new patch can they please *not* list the old incompatible version as 'current version' ?!
I'm sure CCP can check their logs and see how many noobs [mistakenly] download what they think is the latest (save bandwidth for when the real version is released) |

When 13:31 rolls around and the server still isn't up just hand me another 100,000 SP and we will be good. |

Explaining those people that ccp is living in another global timeline then where they are should help also. for example ,i am dutch 13:30 ccptime means 15:30 dutch time |

CCP quote UTC. World timezones have not changed recently so regulars should soon work that out. CCP could make times display based on your timezone prefs, but that wouldn't help schedule things with corp buddies in Evemail etc... I was referring to an incorrect listing, rather than misunderstood statement, but anyway ... |

Just add the standard UTC time to your computer clock (yes, you can set more than one clock, at least since Vista I think)... ;) edit: Patch is online... |

Reading that blog I could assume the patch notes are incomplete yet again?!? How comes the bug tracker ID #98468 "Mac: Mail Cache Error" of mine didn't get updated from "Attached to a defect" to "Fixed in Planetary Interaction 1.0.4" or so for now? You are seriously lacking QA when it comes to communication. And it's pretty obvious bug hunter volunteers with limited tools as well as CSM elected by majorities are part of your communication problem (Why should Windows users care much about Macintosh problems?), not its solution. QA for technical stuff and QA for communication should be the responsibility of different people. Tanis might be an excellent technical QA lead, but his inability to excuse on behalf of CCP (e.g. "sorry it took so long for the mail cache nerf to get fixed") and his obvious belief in "there's a working fix so people shall shut up and I can be proud" might not serve CCP best. You still don't seem to keep proper track of where information sinks do build up / exist, nor are you pointing users to a single source of well organized and updated information which is easily accessible. Hiding stuff somewhere across blogs, forums and wikis just is not good enough. Appoint some extra person to be responsible for supervising chains of communication is what I do suggest. Other than that: Good to hear about a patch again. I, Mac user, wonder if it'll be the best EVE patch my client ever had. Sounds promising.... and grats to the folks convincing management a good hardware testbed is something worth investing in! Perfection Pills ! |
