I haven't been able to play eve since the current update. The launcher is offline. When I enter through exefile I cannot login. A window pops up so I can update my client. When try it always gets stuck at 0.

What can I do to solve this problem? Is there any manual update? Thanks

I just got EVE this week. I've spent more time screwing with this launcher than I have playing the game. Wouldn't work on a fresh install, now the update broke it again.


Your launcher is bad and you should feel bad.

This is really annoying because each time you guys update the game, I have to download the new version of the client and reinstall it again. This is like the third time I have this problem with this game. You guys really need to fix your buggy service. The new launcher is also constantly with problems. It's cool but not functional.

As I can see there are many others with the same problem so it's not from my side. This is a paying service so it's not like I need to go through all this effort time after time.

Are you running any proxy or anti-virus or anti-malware software on the machine where the update doesn't work? Did you create some custom short-cuts to the launcher which may be incorrectly set up?

Same issue. Occurred at home and now at work.

I use AVG at home, we have McAfee at work (and no, I can't turn it off). I haven't had any problems at all until two nights ago (US PDT)
