Flybiere Gallente Intergalactic Shrimp Emporium	Posted - 2011.02.02 10:23:00 - [1] So, is Serenity still up? If it is, I wanted to know if their version of internet space ships was any different to ours. Would be cool to know. I know cultural differences can make a lot of Western games go slightly mad, by our standards, when they get translated. Just look at counter-strike in Japan. Its a FRIKKIN arcade game!!!
Othran Brutor Tribe	Posted - 2011.02.02 10:27:00 - [2] Heh if it is then the kids might be playing less. They'll certainly be paying less. From somewhere else : China has sought to battle the scourge of internet addiction among the youth by giving parents the right to monitor their offspring's online meanderings. Eight government departments have issued new guidelines due to come into force from next month. These will allow, among other things, parents to set restrictions on their kids' online time, which service providers will be obliged to respect. Operators are urged to set aside staff to deal with the project. The ministries, including the Ministry of Public Security, said children shouldn't spend more than two hours a week playing online games, or spend more than $1.50 a month on such services. Xinhua reported the project had been piloted last year, and have "proved effective in helping juveniles overcome addictions to online games". Reactions to the dictat didn't hold much hope for an end to China's growing army of net addicts. If anything, the grown-ups appear to have already thrown in the towel in the hope of an easy life. "It's unnecessary and it will prompt more rebelliousness from the children," one father glumly told the China Daily newspaper, AFP reports. Meanwhile, Gu Jun, a sociologist at Shanghai University, said the order seemed unfeasible and a recipe for family conflicts. While there have been reports of children being pushed to the limit in unauthorised net addiction boot camps, the kids have also pushed back. Last June, 14 kids staged a daring break-out from one camp which was only foiled when it turned out they didn't have the cash to pay their getaway driver - a taxi. Typical govt nonsense mmm?

Cyaxares II	Posted - 2011.02.02 11:07:00 - [4] still online, still on Apocrypha (they don't even know yet how hard Dominion lag will hit them... muahahaha)
Implying Implications Minmatar Autistic Sharks Test Alliance Please Ignore	Posted - 2011.02.02 11:11:00 - [5] I have been told that one alliance currently holds sovereignty in all of 0.0 on Serenity. Is this true? >Implying Implications

TheBlueMonkey Gallente Di-Tron Heavy Industries Atlas.	Posted - 2011.02.02 12:02:00 - [7] I'm just wondering but how do you do you get on the china servers if you're not in china? -- Nothing is worthless, you may have gotten it for free but it still has an inherent value

CCP Fallout	Posted - 2011.02.02 12:44:00 - [8] Serenity is still very much up and running in China, and last year our Chinese partner through a China-based EVE conference in Shanghai. The Serenity server is currently running Apocrypha and, I believe, Dominion. Fallout Associate Community Manager CCP Hf, EVE Online Contact us

The Serenity server is currently running Apocrypha and, I believe, Dominion. Why are they so far behind? I'm starting to think it's a localised issue as I notice in other global MMOs they are always behind everyone else in terms of expansions/versions. ---- tRemember this.

The governement need to go through it so it does not contain any "messages of dissent". And perhaps some translation stuff.

Miss Connolly Public Relations Corp	Posted - 2011.02.02 13:05:00 - [11] I heard rumours that half of 0.0 on Serenity is owned/run/rented out by an ISK selling alliance and the rest of 0.0 is divided among the other (normal) players. Could be bull**** tho. ___________________ "It was mentioned by CCP that the data does not seem to support that polished quality sells better than new features." These are the people you are giving your money to.

Is this true? Same way Tq will end up sooner or later the way things are going maybe not by 1 alliance but certainly 1 coalition... bad times ahead
Syphon Lodian Gallente	Posted - 2011.02.02 13:20:00 - [13] I thought this was going to be about the movie Serenity, and some strange tie-in with Chinese EVE.

You would notice one of them is always behind. For example I played Dark age of Camelot on US servers. And some other company had it in Europe. (Same like EvE in China.) And it was quite far behind too. -------------------------------------- Abstraction and Transcendence: Nature, Shintai, and Geometry
Raid'En	Posted - 2011.02.02 14:26:00 - [16] last time i had news off wow on china was 2 expensions behind. as someone said there's lots of issues with new content to release on china. ---------------- Wormhole Trading

Frau Klaps Amarr Trillionaire High-Rollers Suicidal Bassoon Orkesta	Posted - 2011.02.03 18:40:00 - [18] If they are running Apocrypha at least they have a stable version to have decent fleet battles. ---

I higly doubt an oppressive government would allow that. Well, being a sysadm at a danish ISP and former working at a global backbone company. I think you way overrate your confidence in western ISPs. Or as we joke: In China they know whats banned and what aint. Here we call it antiterror or just simply block it. -------------------------------------- Abstraction and Transcendence: Nature, Shintai, and Geometry
Quemist	Posted - 2011.02.03 20:11:00 - [20] The Chinese operate a lot like the zerg in Starcraft. They can also transform their brains into simple bot programs. They even seem to enjoy doing so. If a normal person from TQ stepped foot on Serenity they would think it was only bots. It's dead silent. But it's not bots. It's Chinese people being bots, botting away like drones. Nothing, but mining lasers and red crosses. Nothing else. Silence.v

The Serenity server is currently running Apocrypha and, I believe, Dominion. Serenity is running Apocrypha 1.5.1. The next deployment planned is Dominion and Tyrannis together in Tyrannis 1.0.5.
