EVE Online To Release New Patch On September 5

EVE Online announced that they will be releasing a new patch on September 5. It was originally scheduled for yesterday, but had to be postponed due to extended maintenance to prepare for the weekend.

EVE Online is currently one of the most popular MMORPG titles of the moment, and is highly-enjoyed by its players because of its galactic proportions as well as a free-for-all world where almost anything may be possible with your character. In fact, EVE has also been notorious for having fellow-players become enemies since they chose to roleplay as villains. So, to all EVE players out there, take note of this date and be prepared for some downtime.

As for the effects of this patch, EVE support has noted the following:

Fixes

• An issue with corp manufacturing processes has been resolved.
• The market in Tash-Murkon region now starts up correctly after DT.
• The Market will no longer reopen when you next undergo a session change (ie, dock, undock, jump) if you used the market button on the Neocom to toggle the market closed.
• An issue which prevented the packaging of ships manufactured in a ship assembly array also prevented the launch of ships from corporation hangars and assembly arrays. Both issues have been resolved.
• The missing warping sound effect has returned.
• Characters in NPC corps will no longer have a list of “Untitled 1, Untitled 2” etc. in their show info.
• Escrow will correctly display Blueprint copies as copies and blueprint originals as originals.
• A number of server side fixes to improve the startup and resolve the issues that occured after the Dragon update have been made via previous hotfixes.
• The default ‘warp to’ distance is once again configurable.
• Locking on a ship while it is cloaking no longer breaks the cloak cycle.

Changes

• The jump queue for systems will only occur if the system in question is on a node using 95% or more CPU. This has previously been hotfixed on TQ.
• Bookmark copying is now limited to 5 bookmarks at a time. Attempting to copy more than 5 bookmarks will result in only 5 being copied.
• A number of agents have items they need transported and will be offering compensation for hauling these goods. (A number of courier missions will be returning).
