It is VERY, VERY obvious that the last tree times youve 'updated' the Launcher, youve COMPLETELY ****** it up.

Latest update, launcher fails, doesnt work. Launcher doesnt update. Reinstalling doesnt work. .EXE doesnt work. NOTHING WORKS.

CCP decided to 'make the launcher better' but I really don't know who cares about it. Launcher isn't the EVE online you play, its simply what you need to get onto EVE. The Launcher never needed to be changed. So I decide to ask CCP what was the reason for this change which has caused many of us including me problems to get onto EVE.

its a front end interface to sell you stuff, its web based so they can ,in the future, show pop up plex ads and various other annoyware. game wise, it is totally unneeded, and by this example, a hindrance. Come on CCP, go back to the old system, so we don't have to wonder what that "mystery patch" contained and wonder if were going to be able to play at all.

I copied this from another post (credit goes to the guy who actually come up with the help). I had to go into my Bin folder and run the ExeFile directly from there. It simply bypasses the launcher and takes you directly into Eve. Works like a charm.


***ATTENTION*** -- TEMPORARY FIX

Repair and play.

1) C:\CCP\EVE\repair.exe

1a) If the repairer fails - re-run it until it completes.

2) C:\CCP\EVE\bin\ExeFile.exe

The game should load and let you connect without issue..

DO NOT under any circumstances re-run the patcher or this will break and you will have to do it over again.

-=-=-=-

Note - This took me about 5 minutes for the repairer to run.

GAH!!!

when I open the client, it installs some stupid update then apparent I end up with an invalid hostname. Alright CCP, i've had enough of this.

I PAY to play your game. I PAY to enjoy myself and immerse myself in the beautiful universe of EVE, and now you're stopping me from playing!
