As an incident and demand manager I know just how hectic and crazy things must have been over at CCP.
Mad respect and lots of love for everyone dedicated to bringing the game back. You guys rock!


Small-business network tech here -- lost a server last year due to hardware failure. We had to build one from parts and restore (manually) from a two-year-old offsite backup.

CCP, you guys just cemented my trip to Fanfest next year -- I want to shake your hands for the dedication you've shown to your players in the past twenty-four hours. :)



CCP could feed you a turd and you would rave about the flavor!

I knew all them socket closed errors we been having wasn't our fault. Server has been down for nearly 24 hours for me personally and I got a fleet of about 3b+ floating in space if the previous posts are true I expect SP and ship reimbursement for this CCP. Normally I don't post in these omg DT 30 mins late threads but this time its just ridiculous.



Well fortunately for you, your 3b hasnt been shot at by somebody in the last 20 hours or so



That's not even counting the 3-5b in lost income, and 350m for my daily plex costs we talking a huge ass fleet.

If your ship blows up because of DT you will very likely get it back. Calm down.


3bill lost ship meh think how many ppl are now in wh chains without probes filing stuck petitions to get out to k-space. or have they said server time has been frozen and GTC credited?

personally would like the time freeze as i had towers sending mail at the start of this

Things slowly getting back together, awesome. Got to be a stressful time in the CCP offices, doubly so with the new expeansion rollout.

Seriously though CCP, please, no SP "compensation". Remember your roots. Sure, roll out +1 day on subs if need be (It's only $.50USD, no biggy if you don't).

This one wasn't CCPs fault, there's no need to apologize, and if you aren't tagging a 10+ day skill at the end of your training queue, it's yer own damn fault.

Remember the six P's, kids. Prior Planning Prevents **** Poor Performance. Applies to yo skillqueue too.

No it shows that they have no idea on ETA.



When they give eta's people like you start complaining that they are an hour behind on their eta ..........

If one day of eveless life is that important to you i'd advice to not log in today and have a close re-evalutaion of your life.

well good work to you all ccp alts working hard on posting praising messages to yourselves in forums and twitter/facebook. If you dont want to be refunded for your lost time, its your choice. Yesterday was a weekend day i intended to spend by playing some eve. When i want to "get outside", "enjoy my RL", i do not pay for this game. Yes those CCP programmers supposedly worked yesterday too ( altough i have some doubts since they claim they took down their servers on purpose after discovering the DDoS, however there was no usual warning in game "put your pilot to safety etc" ), BUT THEY ARE PAID FOR THAT. BY US. So stop k***ing a*s and do not pretend you are real paying players. You are pathetic.


I couldn't agree more. They seem to have worked harder on posting those messages than actually fixing the servers.

We currently have no ETA for the server to be brought back online, however we will update this forum thread as and when more information becomes available.


21 day old n00b here but it seems to me that updating the forum thread isn't very useful when it is every bit as unreachable as Tranquility.

Having a media person keeping twitter & facebook updated would have been much more useful I think.

Hacker group LulzSec, the same group that's attacked Sony and Nintendo in the past, has tweeted that it's committed three distributed denial of service attacks against gaming companies today, bringing down EVE Online's Tranquility server, Minecraft's multiplayer services, and the Escapist Magazine's website. EVE Online's CCP has confirmed both the outage and the attack, the Escapist is unreachable at the moment, and Minecraft creator Notch says that things were down, but supposedly service has been restored.

LulzSec hasn't shared a reason for the attacks just yet, but we can only guess it's, as they say, "for teh lulz."

Update: The group has gone after Riot Games' League of Legends servers as well. Attempting to log in to the game gives a "server busy" message, though there's no official word from the company yet.


CCP, please tell us you're prosecuting the little zits.

Wait a minute. It can't be LulzSec -- they were all indicted two years ago.

I can't get rid of my darn signature!  Oh, wait....

Sad Don't judge all Americans due to some children(relative use) choose to cry over a lack of a life because they can't log onto EVE. I, for one, am very happy with how CCP is handling this.

Lesser companies, such as Blizzard, will try to work through it while having the game running and players have a terrible time doing anything. On top of that, they would have people play with almost no security and not even let the players know about it. This happened with SWTOR(was kind of funny). At least CCP takes the time to be thorough and FIX the problem.

Out of all the years I've played this game, this is the third time EVER that I've had any issue with the game. I don't know about the rest of you, but that's a pretty damn good track record.
