Super-Special-Awesome

Whose eyes am I behind
I don’t recognize anything that I see
Whose skin is this design
I don’t want this to be the way that you see me

I don’t understand anything anymore
And this web that I’m tied up
Is taking me right up these walls
That I climb up
To get to your story
It’s anything but ordinary
Train - Ordinary

I don't intend to be average. I never have and never will. The recent updates to Eve have been alot of fun for me. There's always a downside to things. For me that's graphical.

I'm still not sure why they need to do anything special to "support" low end graphics. Give me an option to turn textures off, give me an option to show nothing but the basic rendering of objects in space. It's in there, underneath the fancy textures, right?

Long story short, I'm nothing but an ordinary pilot right now, and it stinks. I lag on entry to belts, I lag anytime I undock, I lag anytime a new system loads, I lag sometimes just when bringing up new menus. Not a little bit of lag, like a couple of seconds, but thirty seconds to a minute. Group work is fine, but I can't solo anymore. There's a distinct possibility that if things don't change, and quickly, that I'll be ratting up my security status and going back to high security space.

I'm taking a semi-sorta break from Eve right now(doing mostly PvE stuff if anything). Hopefully my frustration subsides. In the mean time, you'll still get regular updates from me.

Good Day.

  2. Not at all, that bit's actually fun. From what I've seen it's just GIS now. It looks like Com-Star gave up from too many losses.

    My frustration stems from my piracy not working out too well. I kill things for money, if I die more often because of lag, then I'm not making as much.
