Version 20.02 - General Feedback

I think the correction hasn’t allowed for time. Using invented numbers, say the tipping point for the BRM beginning to degrade is 500m ratting in a day. If there has been 400m/day taking place ordinarily that would be fine, however where the server connection has been down, could it be that the numbers are now hitting at once e.g. say connection was down for 20 days, all of a sudden 20 x 400 = 8b of ratting has suddenly entered the BRM alg for a single day and tanked the BRM down to 50% immediately.

Just a hunch.

We’re investigating the cause behind this and will have an official statement soon™

The prevailing theory is that the BRM’s were not properly communicating from 10 February until yesterday, so the drastic swings were the accumulation of 6 days worth of activity hitting at once. This would, of course, cause systems to seemingly have dramatic changes in short time periods.

The teams have been actively investigating since yesterday, and as soon as there’s confirmation we’ll let you know

For the love of god, please tell me there is an option to remove the NES button from the market window.
Tell me you wanna go pay to win without saying you wanna go pay to win.

Fire marketing people, get developers and nerds on board.
Every month you bring out a little garbage change like this, which makes eve look like some shitty mobile game.
Every single person I know who plays this game is considering dumping it.
You are alienating your playerbase quicker than you can say “Shareholdervalue UwU”

there is nothing in the new eden store that has anything to do with ‘pay to win’

When are the Minmatar Industrial, and Gallente Industrial skillbook going to be re-seeded back to npc stations? Or is it the intention to just remove skill books in favor of remote buying skills?

Wait until all skillbooks are in new eden store for you to buy with plex

+1 to please, please revert the taskbar minimum width change

I accidentally dragged my neocom menu and made it bigger, and then when I tried to fix it I just couldn’t. Now a ton of my buttons don’t show up because I can’t make the neocom menu smaller like it used to be.

This change is horrible, if I wanted my neocom menu to be wider I would set it to be wider. I don’t understand why this change got made.

Very informative and interesting post about how WH eviction mechanics have been working lately. Thanks for typing that up.

@CCP_Swift It’s now been like 3 days, my system is still useless despite 0 ratting happening there. When is this being fixed?

@CCP_Swift We have the same in most of our systems. It heavily affects our corporation as we have to pay the rent which is now impossible to get the isk for. Also the ESS bank is getting really low amounts too so its losing content too. My ess was contested a lot when we had the correct modifier… I did a roam and I noticed that a lot of systems are having amazing modifiers, but in our area not that much pvp happens to boost it back fast enough. I dont think that a bug causing the systems modifiers to drop back to 50% should make a corporation go bankrupt as it is a serious hit for the community in the area and not only affecting individual’s income.

Oh my godness, I just found out what was meant by this topic.
Chanced the setting of icons in the necom bar … and increased in size and cant be decreased again.

Please anyone … where can I find the core_user_.dat file?
Any path / direction so i can try to fix this utterlybullshit by myself?

Thanks in advance

CCP … what is this???

Cannot decrease the neocom size to its former size …
STOP with this annoying GUI changes

Give me back my old/previous small icons !!!

Found the file mentined above by Podsuleer at

C:\User[user]\AppData\Local\CCP\EVE\c_games_eve_sharedcache_tq_tranquility\settings_xxx

As I use for every account a separate settings (after one patch from CCP in summer last year wrought havoc on my game clients) I just copied EVERY file from one still OK account into the ruined account …

So thats a working workaround.
Anyway, after my experiences after this issue, and the issue in last summer that completly crashed my single settings I was used up to then for all accounts, I personally recommend everyome to make separate settings for each account.

Even now I see that some settings from account 1 from which I copied the files were not taken into account 2 which I just reparied (e.g. red dot showing up again) but it’s already far beyond midnight, I am deadly tired from work , can hardly keep my eyes open and the screen already gets blurry so I need to go to sleep.

But at you CCP … I pay you guys every year several hundreds of €€€ for subs and stuff.
And I pay to PLAY and not to repair your patch bugs by myself in the middle of the night just because you fail to correct them with some hotifix even within 14 days after a patch brings up such issues.

I am really angry right now … and it is not the hot temprered anger from 2 weeks ago but some cold boiling issue about how this can be - a patch rolled out on your side and not having it severly quality controlled?
Well, errors happen and an error can be overseen by a person. Also happens to me at work, to collageus … its human. It happend before, it will happen again … no point in grundling about this.

But if it happens there is a responsibility from you, the provider of the game, to us, the paying customers.
In the company I work it is called “customer awareness” … the customer comes first, the customer is king, as the customer, in the end, sustains the company and by this pays my salary.

But I go to bed now … sick of this and tired.
