Yeah no, not going to re-download EVE again just to update, especially when all the updates nerf all the ships.

EVE was a great game, but starting from the Miner updates (maybe even before this) it's been going downhill. The alliance coalition used to have about 28000 players active, now we're down to about 6000. Miners, now that you can't even extend the ore hold; and the Hulk isn't a solo miner anymore, there's nothing you can do without having a full mining fleet; unless you want to jet and haul for yourself.

And don't even get me started on the Tengu changes, cruiser changes, etc.

But not even being able to update? That definitely takes the cake for me. Your download servers are slow enough that I don't want to download the full game again, especially when the patch was only 3.6 MB according to the client; then erroring out because the patch doesn't exist; and telling me I have to download the entire game again.

I have a 1GBPS full duplex line, and I get about 200kb/sec in your downloader; seriously?

NOTE: I was playing EVE just fine 20 hours ago.

Nobody can have my stuff, not yet anyways. I'll probably get a silly reply from a dev eventually being all "Sorry for the inconvenience lulz, take this patch [link]". This isn't the first time this has happened, and my 300 plex purchase gets me some pretty good replies around here.

I'm not an idiot, I redeem in Jita and sell there; I really don't understand why people will redeem elsewhere and get ganked, lose PLEX, etc. Idiots that feed the rest of us I suppose. And yeah, 300 PLEX with IRL is not that much money for a web developer, I do freelance for often have a bit too much money at one time, leads to spending it on things like this.

Why exactly 300? That's the amount it had to be to warrant contacting CCP about special deals :D

I love how my patching was broken for DUST and clothing changes, that's just sad.

This has got to be the Ultimate Whine Thread in the history of EVE. Period and Final.
