This is a typical example of survival bias.
This is easy, if it were an our operating system issue or something else.
CCP would just have to say "old PCs or old systems canât play Eve anymore, like when they say âplayers with Windows 7 canât play Eve anymore.â
If they make this post and donât change the game requirements, itâs because itâs a CCP issue, not ours.
If they want to fix it or not, thatâs unknown.
I donât understand why someone comes in here trying to say itâs our fault for playing the game and doesnât offer any help?
Maybe they looking for CCP to hire them or give them Omega free. lol

@CCP_Caffeine i would reiterate ask for a setting to start game in potato mode. ( perhaps a launcher setting )
We had a large battle in null space today, and i got disconnected. When i logged in it was a lag fest, a potato mod from the start would make a world of difference.

@QuakeGod Disappointing comments; a total lack of empathy for fellow gamers whose troubles do not even affect your gameplay. The very least you could do is advocate for CCP finding the issues and resolving them if possible, considering MacOS is officially supported with its own client developed by CCP (it doesnât even use a Windows emulator as it did in the past), so Iâm sure it isnât just a handful of people.

âŚthe actual name for it may vary.
The developers arenât paying for it in any case, if anything theyâd rather it didnât occur.
You miss no valuable content sticking such people on ignore.
Happily the latest updates have pretty much fixed everything on my MacBook Air M1 (thermal pad modded). Itâs now getting 50-60fps 1200p without using AMD FSR on high settings but AA on medium.
For those having issues on Windows, have you updated all your drivers? I would guess there are a lot of weird and wonderful configurations to account for.

Show me a windows laptop that could run EVE online for 6 hours on battery.
I was able to get 4 or 5 hours in potato mode on a Chromebook with windows 11 on it.
It was enough for scout alts.
It was not enough for an actively engaged player (i.e. ratting, pvp etc)
Can we just agree that:
- Game performance has taken an overall hit since Equinox (volumetrics, etc.)
- A lot of systems took a performance hit with the âEVE Evolvedâ update), and this affected both Mac and PC players.
- There have been some patches (Mac, PC) that have remedied much of this - although many graphic anomalies still persist - and overall performance is (at best) no better than it was pre-âEVE-Evolvedâ for a lot of players.
- Mac users have reported continued problems with overheating; PC users have reported memory leaks and unexpected crashes.
We know that CCP is continuing to look at these issues (fingers crossed), and we will continue to report bugs, post interim fixes and workarounds and make feature suggestions to CCP to hopefully address some of our concerns.
If youâre not part of the solution - youâre part of the problem (so if you donât have anything constructive to offer, please find somewhere else to share your thoughts).

As of downtime this morning, I can no longer launch the game on DirectX 11. For the record, DirectX12 still doesnât work either. What the heck, people? Why does this keep getting worse instead of better?

Got one account with the same problem 
I just assumed that they were not, and that it was super obvious that they were not.

Game doesnât launch - launcher says âClient is runningâ, but it isnât.
Worked okay yesterday, albeit laggy with significant waits when jumping systems.
Not looking good for sub renewal.

From todayâs patch notes (havenât been able to confirm the first fix, which several of us reported):
- Fixed an issue on Mac where the tactical overlay was broken with FSR1 enabled.
- Fixed an issue where killmarks wouldnât show on Tech 3 Strategic Cruisers.
- Fixed a transparency issue with certain hair styles.
We only reported the tactical overlay/glitch in this thread late last week, so CCP is obviously keeping a loose eye on this thread (or their internal test group also found it).
Curious about this. Do you have one account? Or are you only having this problem with one account and others that are working? I hadnât had any indication so far that this problem was different from account to account, but now Iâm wondering if I should be checking for that.
