You're a whole other kind of loony, you know that?


Yes i do know that.

If the poster meant the Eve universe, well, my bad and i accept i have misunderstood his comment, and i apologize.

I have seen many Americans bitching about how their primetime has been ruined which is why i made that comment and why i stand by it. I'm allowed a viewpoint, you know freedom of speech, the constitution and all that, and this is mine.

Thankyou all the freedom \o/

Never considered the scale of the attack, did you?
Of course not. It's clearly the Goons and their UN masters at CCP.
Also, FEMA.

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.


this would have been an ideal time to roll out the new expansion while the servers were down, kill 2 birds with 1 stone

I went outside and the graphics weren't very good.


You need the upgrade "Fix Cataracts v1.1a" installing


I did.

Now the Real life launcher stopped working.



Lol you probably need to get the locksmith out to fix the lock, it's frozen up from lack of use.

What happened really looks like no DDoS but rather a failure in core network infrastructure.

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.

It's not like it's their job or anything, gee fanboys are obnoxious.
Don't get me wrong I love CCP but there is a difference between CCP involvement in eve community (which is respectable/likable) and fixing a major issue with the game we are paying for...

It's Monday Morning 04:47am my time. Server Went Down Sunday at around 09:00am.

Time to put this on a completely different server then the game servers so we can be informed of your progress. Launched the Client from the Bin EXE and it says Server Tranq, Status Checking Status 0 players.

Can we get an ETA please.

Thanks.

See this is what happens when you try to fix things that were not broken in the first place. Seems like all this happened once Logging in went to the Launcher VS the Client.



CCP's Facebook, Google+ and Twitter had updates all day long. Funny how that is huh?

A DDoS attack happened and they had to take down EVE, Dust514 and all their sites, it isn't their problem.

nope, too many skill queues will run out, too many POS will run out of fuel, too many people on strict deadlines for training certain skills before tiericide will lose out.

How long you guys at CCP been going at it now?

I would personally recommend a Keurig machine. They have larger models now so no need to be limited to 12 oz cups. I personally am a fan of the Starbucks Sumatra K-cups myself...but than again I like dark roasts.

Now I'm not saying your bosses should buy you one, but well your bosses should probably buy you one. Pirate



Thanks for all your hard work.

Oh I can hear the QQ now about SP, clone upgrades, etc if they put the patch in place now. They wont do it so stop thinking or suggesting they will.

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.


That article is from 2011, not 2013.


I know. I updated my original post when I realized that. :)
