This isn't something the CSM sucked out of their non-technical thumbs.<br /><br />The CSM has requested more detailed information from CCP. If after receiving more information, the CSM still believe it will address the problem of unfair battles, then the CSM intends to get behind it and push it, try move it up the priority list.<br /><br />Thats it. Nothing more. Nothing less. The CSM is definitely not doing anything like what a technical advisory panel would do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4967533318309432575.post-63791286249534397612011-04-12T07:09:38.812-07:002011-04-12T07:09:38.812-07:00What the CSM is doing is placing an 'issue spo...What the CSM is doing is placing an 'issue spotlight' on Time Dilation. What is an 'issue spotlight'? I am not sure but it seems to me that the chairman of the CSM is excited about this since he thinks that it will solve the problem. The problem is that the CSM is not a technical advisory panel. Compared to the actual developers they have little if any idea how the EVE server works. By placing thier first 'issue spotlight' on time dilation they are putting their efforts in completely the wrong place.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12266160412251006850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4967533318309432575.post-85896254930082731622011-04-12T06:08:25.850-07:002011-04-12T06:08:25.850-07:00I read this devblog the same way Druur did.

I really doubt that CCP won't be working on improvements to their code at the same time as they are working on TD.Altareenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4967533318309432575.post-44182895930765035732011-04-11T21:35:27.828-07:002011-04-11T21:35:27.828-07:00Maybe I have to re-read the CSM releases, but my r...Maybe I have to re-read the CSM releases, but my reading was not that the CSM believes that Time Dilation will solve the lag problem as such, only that it will remove the unfairness inherent in the current implementation. <br /><br />Obviously work on general speed-up must not cease; but at least Time Dilation might re-instate the precious quality of Graceful Degradation which would keep the large fights playable while the devs work on root improvements.Druur Monakhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07299435488090977357noreply@blogger.com
