REVELATIONS II, the second part of three free REVELATIONS expansion for EVE Online will be deployed on Tuesday 19 June, starting at 0200 GMT. This deployment is scheduled to last approximately 24 hours, with an estimated return to service at 0200 GMT on Wednesday 20 June. Tranquility will also undergo its normal daily maintenance period at 1100 GMT on the 20th.
REVELATIONS features many improvements, new features, content and a wealth of optimizations and fixes to both Tranquility and the EVE game client. Detailed Patch Notes are available for review. The REVELATIONS II features page will be available shortly.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and encourage training of a skill with a long training time.
Please keep in mind the EVE forums will be offline for the duration of the expansion deployment due to the need to keep from adding new information to the database.

[ 2007.06.14 15:17:52 ] CCP Oveur > Syril: I'll get you something better, I'll get you Revelations II next week
[ 2007.06.14 15:20:21 ] CCP Oveur > You should see a news announcement later tonight about Rev II
Other things:
Graphics Engine update:
[ 2007.06.14 15:18:14 ] Kepaloha > how long till the new graphics engine is available for test on test server?
[ 2007.06.14 15:19:48 ] CCP Oveur > Kepaloha: not scheduled yet, I can tell you "this year" with high certainty
Autopilot:
[ 2007.06.14 15:20:16 ] hellwarrior > Oveur did you make any alterations to the autopilot code to make sure it works properly? As well as fixing session change bugs relating to ship loss/gate jumping immediately after?
[ 2007.06.14 15:20:35 ] CCP Oveur > hellwarrior: yeah, we actually changed the autopilot a bot
[ 2007.06.14 15:20:37 ] CCP Oveur > *a bit
[ 2007.06.14 15:20:53 ] CCP Oveur > the session change is something we can't address yet
[ 2007.06.14 15:21:12 ] CCP Oveur > it's very fragile, which is the reason for your - and my (not to mention GM) - frustration
[ 2007.06.14 15:21:56 ] Richard Villiers > and what about autopilot recalculating routes after every jump, sometimes changing routes for no apparent reason?
[ 2007.06.14 15:24:20 ] CCP Oveur > Richard: I believe the autopliot sticks to it's route now
Tech 3:
[ 2007.06.14 15:31:23 ] CCP Oveur > Qual: Tech 3 is a while away, partly because of how much is associated with it
Carriers:
[ 2007.06.14 15:31:19 ] Targeteer > is the carrier nerf still going through?
[ 2007.06.14 15:31:52 ] CCP Oveur > Yes and no on the carriers, they are getting the balancing all ships get
[ 2007.06.14 15:32:25 ] Denissa > Please don't stop us from being able to store giant secure cans in haulers in carriers. Its not that much of a size increase, and most of the time they are only used to "Partition" you storage. Or make a Can that is equal to its size.
[ 2007.06.14 15:33:14 ] CCP Oveur > Denissa: we're looking into that, but it has to be like that for now, we've long frozen the expansion and this was a bugfix
ISK Farmers:
[ 2007.06.14 15:37:10 ] TwilightTech > Oveur, what can CCP do to stop ISK sellers from using disposable accounts?
[ 2007.06.14 15:37:47 ] CCP Oveur > TwilightTech: we do a lot about them, the fact you see some give you an indication of how many they are, how intent they are and that most of these are actually companies
[ 2007.06.14 15:37:54 ] CCP Oveur > so it's an eternal battle
[ 2007.06.14 15:38:03 ] CCP Oveur > we do something, they react, we do something else, they react
