We are running a mass test on Singularity this weekend, beginning at 19:00 UTC today (2 October), and running through the weekend until 12:00 UTC on Monday, 5 October.
What exactly is being tested?
The main goal of this mass test is to help us validate an upcoming engine upgrade. This is primarily a backend change, so there shouldn’t be any noticeable gameplay differences.
During this mass test, we are mainly looking for:
Performance issues or improvements
Crashes, freezes, or instability
Unexpected bugs or technical issues
Anything that behaves differently from Tranquility
One positive change we have seen so far is a consistent FPS gain. During the mass test, we’d love for you to let us know if you notice any improvements in performance compared to Tranquility!
Test Instructions
Please join the in-game channel masstesting. You will find instructions in the MOTD.
What else should I know?
Run the highest graphical settings your system is able to.
We strongly recommend updating to the latest GPU drivers. For macOS, the latest OS version that you are able to run.
We have not yet set a release date for this upgrade to be deployed to Tranquility.
Please be mindful that test server rules still apply. Punishments for flagrant infractions received on Singularity may extend to Tranquility, and can impact things like participation in the Alliance Tournament and other fun projects.
How to connect to Singularity for this test:
Change the server from Tranquility to Singularity in the bottom right corner of the launcher and log in as normal. More detailed instructions are available here.
Thank you for taking part and helping us make sure the upgrade is ready for the next steps!
in uitra the scan anomolies didnt appear on the scan menu until i scanned empty space.
The gas training anomolies in uitra when you use the mining survey chipset in the scan results window you can open says that the azure mykoserin has 100 units/1000 m^3 yet once one unit has been harvested it dissapears i have even noticed that sometimes it will last for all 100 units and sometimes it only lasts to give 1 or 2 units on the tranquility server but it doesnt happen all the time. though the gas bit already was happening
but just for the record, i dont want you to take away the gas from the old career areas
It looks like NES is disabled on Singularity, is this intentional? My TQ omega accounts are alpha on SISI, and since I cant plex them, I cant properly test performance with just 1 client.
My account on Sisi is showing as an alpha account. I’ve been an omega account for about 3 years now, so not sure why it would be mirrored as an alpha? No way to turn it into an omega account on the test server as far as I can see.
Accounts missing mirroring
Plex isnt seeded on the market so ppl cant buy Omega
Markets need to be re-seeded
One of my accounts was created through Steam, I’ve moved it out of Steam by now but since there hasn’t been a mirror, that account is not able to authenticate (neither through steam nor through login credentials, credentials work on the live server)
I’ve also encounterd a visual bug with the “Integrated Sensor Array” (T1 carrier sensor array) where a beam of flashing lights covers the entire screen, but only happened on 1 character (I had 2 online at the time)
For your info, they disabled the Omega purchase from the NES on Sisi a while back.
And to Ryan:
There was some during the previous test a few weeks ago, but I couldn’t upgrade to Omega anyway then. Either someone bought them all for no good reason, or FC may have removed them on purpose for this one, who knows.
