on the screen it is written "UNABLE TO CONNECT TO 87 237 38 50 ON PORT 26000

even if i write down the user and password all i get is an alert saying CONNECTION FAILED: Could not connect to the specified address. Odds are that you have not established an internet connection, the server isn't running, or the server address or port number was wrong.

Same problem: Unable to connect to 87.237.38.50 on port 26000, while EvE-Offline says Singularity is up. Tested with Pingplotter: Destination adress unreachable, 100,00% packet loss. I have no problems connecting to Tranquillity and my firewall is turned off.

This.

Have cleared cache, run repair etc. Same result from multiple machines, i'd think the server wasn't running but other people are clearly on.

Also, +1 for the awesome return of ship spinning CoolAttention
A return to hangar button in CQ would be nice, should be a toggle.

Same thing with me. Also, Eve Server Status shows the server as offline, while Eve Offline shows it as online.

Once you have left the ship spinning hanger and entered CQ, there is no button to go back to the hanger.

No, this MIS connection failure was due to some scheduled maintenance on some internal services this morning, it totally slipped my mind. Should be done by now, sorry for the inconvenience.

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but to everyone who complains about CCP not listening to their players needs to be directed here. Most of the time if a player asks a question, a dev answers the question.

to CCP: Don't listen to the forum trolls. Keep up the good workBig smile

On topic after the rant: Some minor problems when try to dock directly into hanger views, and textures don't 100% load in CQ. The "to captains quarters"(blue arrows) button is a neat idea, but maybe make it a toggle button (if your in hanger view it takes you to CQ, and if in CQ it takes you to hanger view.) other then that seems to run fine. Can't wait to see it in Tranquility.

oh well well well now it works :)

The new CQ are super cool. I feel pity for people who has to live in a minmatar station --> me :(

The new font doesn't drive me crazy but it just works... maybe you could add the option to change teh colour of it (at least in the chat and in the overview... i still think that yellow will enhance the readability)

I really like the fade out / fade in when you jump through the jump gates ^^

The spinning ship hangar --- captain's quarter works. Just a suggestion To go to the hangar i need to use a button... and to go back another one put just before the undock (but blue colour) if i were you i would keep the blue button just because it's easier and it's just 1 button in the same place (or maybe add a button in the station service window :)

...keep up the good work as clideb50 said :)

Regarding the Capital Cyno Effect, Just an idea.

First, The jump in effect is a little off. It needs to be Flash -> De-cloak
Second, Reconsider the star trek Effect for the Cyno Jump out!
Third, Would be cool if the color of the Jump in/out flash would be dependent on the fuel that the ship uses.

ex. Hydrogen = Blue, Oxygen = Yellow, Nitrogen = inert (Pick a color? White?), Helium = Pink (ROFL!)

1) It would be cool.
2) Easy to see what type of capital ship is jumping in at a glance.
3) Would follow RL flame color of each fuel! We all know "EVE is Real" right?!

CQ: I know it's a work in progress, but as it is now...
Minmatar: well, it's about perfect since it's the oldest
Caldari: Real pretty, could use more lens flare though, and the sound emitters seem to be acting a tad strange, hanger noises just as loud as normal while in the actual quarters
Gallente: Beautiful, stunning, like being in a Star Trek set, it just needs more Star Trek esque sounds and even MOAR lens flare, maybe a bit more color too...but that's just me.
Amarr: Sounds are silly right now, all I could hear was pod goo filters or something, also I didn't see any statues, is this a feature for only Amarr races? Other than that, pretty good.


Ship spinning: Step in the right direction, but there's some serious issues...
Amarr: The little civilian ships don't follow their old routes and are incidentally appearing disappearing out of nowhere, and crashing through solid objects and stuff...might want to fix that.
Caldari: Pretty solid, but some of the textures (or results of the bump maps, can't tell) make some areas look a bit weird.
Gallente: OH SWEET MERCIFUL TEXTURE GODS...what happened? I don't remember the Gallente hangers looking this bad...but even the textures in TQ look bad from the balcony...I think you might want to dig back into the files archive for some better ones, or fix the current set...cause for me at least...it's really distracting and ugly.
Minmatar: Haven't looked yet.
General: Could we get the blue arrows as a general thing, it would help with the "oh let's walk over to the ship options tools and board the ship"


Font: BIG FONT IS BIG. Standard gripes about that, etc. etc. It looks nice as a font, but needs some work to fit better.


Ti-Di: Really fricking sweet, this is one of the greatest things I've seen, especially during the fleet fight, when it got really slow and even when it was stopping, it was epic, cinematic, and outright awesome. I just wish that the camera drones would respond faster so I could get some of the action shots better...but that's a minor issue.


New NeX Items: Finally, some clothes that are easy to mix and match with, and there's a bit more color coordination now it seems, but I kinda like the Metal Gear eye patch, very Caldari esque in my opinion...I just want to see more implants, more tattoos, scars, etc. Tattoo layering would be cool, but scar layering, that's what I really want...not for this char though...and on the topic of face mods, back to tattoos; when are we going to get the cool Minmatar tattoos back? You know, like the ones from the original portrait creator? It'd be awesome if you could bring in some of the clothes, hair, accessories, tattoos, etc from the classic portrait creator, there was some really good stuff.


New Cyno: Pretty cool needs some timing and maybe ship decloak adjustments, what I think it should do is do the prep, big flash, and then in the middle of the big flash, the ship appears, instead of the ship appearing and then the cyno effect happens...just me though.
