What inconvinience?
You can log in perfectly by avoiding the launcher.

It's not like you have to solve the 40th prime or something.

Can log-in using the exe file in the bin folder.

Launcher is a big white box with not even a pretty picture to divert me from its total uselessness.

CCP Falcon, if you would have posted the alternative to sign in in the first place, none of this would have been discussed here. It was your short comings that resulting in someone making a comment.

But, for you to chastise him was uncalled for. CCP Dev know the in and outs of this game and we are the paying customers so we are allowed to flame something that should have never started in the first place.

Do not give your yourself to much credit here, as you could have told us how to sign in the alternate way in your first post..


Any workaround that bypasses the launcher is not supported by us, and is therefore not messaged officially.

If people want to fudge their clients to login, then they do so on their own initiative, and if they end up with a messed up or otherwise unusable client because they've bypassed normal login procedures, then it's out of our hands.

^^Mr. Falcon, I understand that as a CCP employee that's what you'd have to tell us.. but are you saying we can screw up our game by doubling clicking the exe? There's no hacking, no fudge as you put it.. just using the exe in the bin folder like any other executable in the operating system.

CCP obviously must support it to an extent because this gives you a login screen as well as a "Log Off" option that's not available when starting with the launcher.

Doesn't it make sense to message out direct exe start as an official alternative for situations like this?

That is a sad policy that demonstrates total didsdain for your paying customers. The game is playable but you can't explain how since the company is incapable of admitting that the launcher is a piece of crap and yet another project that resources have been wasted on. The launcher has caused more problems than it has ever solved. This insistence on forcing the launcher down the players' throats clearly conveys the exact respect and esteem in which you hold your playerbase. And, of course, they choose the one person who knows all about messaging to convey that message.

Thanks for confirming it. Those other games can't get here fast enough.

You know, I was trying to bring up a point.. but I'd rather not do it if this is the kind of "feedback" you want to give.

Forget it.

Falcon, your launcher doesn't work and you have yet to supply a solution.

In the meantime, in order to play the game we're paying for someone has supplied a work around.

I'm currently logged on but if I was waiting for CCP I wouldn't be.

Fix the launcher please.

Mate. Did you even read the thread? The Launcher had been fixed for ~11 hours before you posted this...

Also why is this thread not locked yet?

My launcher is not fixed and no-one at CCP can tell me why aside from linking me wiki pages regarding the client repair tool which turn out to be blank.

Used client repair tool blah blah blah

I can't see a post from you regarding this except the one in this thread. There you state that both Launcher and exefile.exe don't work. It might help to post in the Issues & Workaround forum section. Or even better, look if there's a thread covering your issues that provides a solution.

Don't use launcher and start your game using EXE file, like most of the people.
You are not wasting time on launcher to start and there is no issue to relogin on the same client to multiple accounts.

Get over yourself.

The number of logged on users has been declining sharply over the last few months. Here, let me spell it out for you. PCU counts are right around where they were post-summer of rage 3 years ago. Sundays are clearly the busiest day of the week and one might imagine that there were about 42,000 people that wanted to log on yesterday.

But only 37,000 did. 5,000 accounts could not. Why not? The servers were up and they could have logged on if only CCP had told them how. But no, the sacred cow known as :launcher: and the reputations of the dingbats responsible for it (i.e. the marketing geniuses) are more important to the company than the wishes of 10% of their playerbase who only want to log on and play the game they're freaking paying for on the busiest day of the week when they've got some hours to spare. Where I come from, the business logic that calls for a scenario like that is called #DeadManWalking. No company with that attitude can survive very long.

That's borderline evil and you're OK with that? I could understand if it was something beyond their control but this was not.
