You asked a question, and imposed an answer and arrived at your conclusion based on your supposed answer.
Does anyone enjoy TiDi? No, probably not.
Does anyone enjoy the massive fights that cause TiDi? Hell yes. I said before, and I’ll say again - I basically play Eve for these massive fights. It’d be WAY more fun without lag, but I have realistic expectations for thousands of players in the same fight.
If my alliance pinged another max dude CTA (which ironically… they did…) I would continue to make every effort to be there. Not because of obligation, but because of interest.
All you had to say is that you enjoy the massive TiDi and repeat disonnects. I personally don’t get how sitting in front of your screen for 10+ hours watching things update at a snail’s pace and occasionally clicking F1 provides any form of entertainment. I’m not even sure being able to say “I was there” matters, either.
The “one server” thing is basically what happens when they enter a field. In this case 6RCQ-V (I hope) was one server. Anything supporting over 2000 players on a single server like that is very impressive.
ETA to an upgrade where even one place is supported by multiple servers? “Soon.”
Probably true - not really a matter of which side will win (I mean… I’d like it to be my side, but ultimately, I have fun with big fights).
Except that’s not what I said, is it. In fact I said quite the opposite. I don’t enjoy TiDi. I see it as a necessary evil to enable the kind of fight that I’d happily give 10+ hours to participate in.
I’d much rather that TiDi not be there, and that things be responsive, but if given the choice between big fights with tidi or no big fights, I choose big fights with tidi. I’m not choosing tidi, I’m choosing the big fight. I’m accepting that TiDi is there.
Because before TiDi you didn’t play. Server ■■■■ the bed, died, and you played other ■■■■ until all the people fighting gave up or something.
Rather watch a slideshow, or just not play? Actually TBH, you still can do the latter. If you don’t like TiDi, log out and quit bitching
Before you ‘lose things you spent months working for’ would you mind contracting some of it to me. I have friends in high places that can get your stuff for me to where i want it. TIA.
P.S. Its better than losing it. At least you know where its going.
Nobody is saying they enjoy this. What they enjoy is what it comes with. I enjoy flying, but I don’t enjoy pre-flight checks. Gotta take the good with the bad.
Fwiw the highest I saw local at during the fight as 3796 when the timer on the star was paused at 10 minutes 53 seconds. And stuff was still playable if slow.
