Is this patch giving anyone else issues? I was online until the server restarted and now the patch wont install for me, I have tried the repair tool and it gets to 77-80% then sits there, this is my 5th time running it and it is currently at 10+ minutes and counting. I have also tried to restart my computer and rerun the launcher. Short of reinstalling eve (which I cant do for another week because I have to make 2 gigs of bandwidth last that long.) Unless the game is smaller than I thought it is to dl? but any suggestions or tips on what I can do to make this patch work would be appreciated.

I receive a ridiculously large error message when trying to start the game. I have attempted the repair and it freezes around 80%. I have also ran the rescache and it has installed all missing files. Restarted my computer and the launcher is still giving an error on the screen. Would really love for a dev or someone to post a workaround or a fix to rectify this.

Oh I have also tried running the game strictly from the exefile with absolutely no success as well.

Yes, because, perhaps, people on this forum are mostly unhelpful morons.

Actually - I can't start the client at all.

The following happened :

a) I had to install a new client this morning, because the former one got corrupted - for whatever reason.
b) The download took place at around 05:00 CET
c) Everything went fine. I was online again until about DT.

2h after DT - I tried to restart the client.
Ever since it says : Downloading new version 995234
Actually it is my 4th try - it started 30 minutes ago - now is still at 2 %

I sent a mail to "support@eveonline.com"
Ticket is 102159.
That was 2 hours ago.

Up to now - no nothing.

That's an interesting evening - isn't it. Tranquility has 31656 online - and I'm unable to punish the FW-opponents.

Whenever I open the launcher, it stays in Offline mode.

I am having trouble, after the launcher updated itself, it did launch a command shell, do something, then the process for the launcher restarted (I can see it running in my task manager) window. However, no application window is on my screen to interact with.

I have tried:

- killing / restarting the launcher - no fix
- restarting the computer - no fix
- re-installing eve from scratch - launcher does the same thing

No issues on my two OS X computers but this one Win 10 system is stuck.

That surname is almost pronounceable in Serbian or Croatian.

Naw,,, don't wait until July, just stop paying CCP for the eve subscription and purchase a subscription to Vendetta-online. An other space oriented MMORG with servers in Milwaukee WI. No timezone issues for U.S. customers. Game runs on multiple platforms Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and IOS. Subscription is about 10 USD/month.

After almost 10 years of EVE I'm getting tired of spending more time per month patching than playing. I'd really hate putting EVE into the same catagory as EverQuest and Warcraft, (once great games, destroyed by their developers)

Instead of changing the color of Minmatar ships why not change the patch file downloader so we all can see the new stuff?
It doesn't do a lot of good to fix game content when the launcher/patcher/repair tool are all unable to download the new content.

SO....Vendetta Online is the new EVE-killer of the month? Whatever happened to Erectile Disorder err... I mean Elite Dangerous and Scam Citizen I mean Star Citizen?

This has been happening to me lately, it seems I have to delete and re-install the launcher about once a month. Using the beta launcher isn't even an option since it seems to really not like my 4K monitor.

Yes, I have just logged into eve and got exactly the same thing. Looks like a Windows 10 issue. Beginning to wish I had not been fooled by Microsoft to take this damn free software Oops
