Title: CCP explains lag and why Apocrypha wasn't as great as you thought Post by: Stabs on August 14, 2010, 09:57:14 PM Dev blog from Zulupark here:
http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&bid=781 Threadnaught with every third comment from CCP Oveur here: http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1368315 Good luck to them, I think in time Eve will be the huge fleet game most of us hope for. Then of course instead of lag we'll complain about blobbing or overpowered supercarriers.

http://store.eveonline.com/EVE-Patches-C17.aspx :oh_i_see: Kind of amusing that his thread to defuse threadnaughts is turning into a threadnaught. And its HIGHLY COINCIDENTAL that this happened after the other threadnaughts leaked into the press. Title: Re: CCP explains lag and why Apocrypha wasn't as great as you thought Post by: Simond on August 15, 2010, 05:53:03 AM Haha, nice work CCP. Way to condition your playerbase to run to the media and threadnaught every time there's a problem because that's the only way you can get an answer from the devs.
What could possibly go wrong? :awesome_for_real: Title: Re: CCP explains lag and why Apocrypha wasn't as great as you thought Post by: IainC on August 15, 2010, 06:03:38 AM The flipside to that of course is that there's so little going on in the MMO market these days that practically anything is news for the big portals. Most other news recently has either been about games that have been cancelled, wont be released for a long time or are changing to a F2P model, very little about games that are actually released and doing things. There's Cataclysm on the horizon but little else. No-one would care about Alganon ad D*r*k Sm*rt either if the industry was in the same state as it was 4 years ago.

Quote from: CCP H'mm what can we do about the lag? I know we will create a dev blog about how hard it is to fix lag and not mention that our crappy design and testing processes allow us to push shitty code to live! Title: Re: CCP explains lag and why Apocrypha wasn't as great as you thought Post by: ajax34i on August 15, 2010, 07:51:30 AM It's all a bunch of bullshit; they've been focused on developing their next project, not on fixing EVE lag, and now that it's apparent that EVE players only like EVE, they're trying to spin it in some way.
I don't think that the devblog comments thread will become a threadnaught, for two reasons: 1. They're heavily moderating it (Oveur quotes and replies to posts that have been deleted from the thread already), and so CCP will remove the bulk of the hostile posts. 2. I don't think we care anymore. Title: Re: CCP explains lag and why Apocrypha wasn't as great as you thought Post by: Pezzle on August 15, 2010, 08:59:59 AM That thread is amazing. They STILL fail to understand.

Thanks guys :awesome_for_real: Title: Re: CCP explains lag and why Apocrypha wasn't as great as you thought Post by: tgr on August 15, 2010, 01:12:49 PM Every time I get the urge to return to EVE someone posts something here that refreshes my memory.

http://www.tentonhammer.com/eve/interviews/gylfason-at-gamescom2010 TLDR AhahahaHA! Despite what we said before, we WERE always working on lag. Honest injun! Title: Re: CCP explains lag and why Apocrypha wasn't as great as you thought Post by: Sir T on September 12, 2010, 09:20:21 AM And I guess this explains a lot...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgvM7av1o1Q This is what they were doing when working on Dominion, was it? Explains a lot :oh_i_see: Title: Re: CCP explains lag and why Apocrypha wasn't as great as you thought Post by: Furiously on September 22, 2010, 01:20:30 AM They should release an album, that was entertaining.
