I'm glad this happened. I thought after the boot.ini incident nothing funny would ever happen again. Today taught me differently. You have my support, CCP! P

If such a thing happens to Wargaming, then you get a full day of premium, if you have an active subscription. Here we lost 1h of playtime for nothing?

One hour of game time in EVE for someone subscribing at the max price is worth about 2 cents. I'm sure if you petition and ask nicely, they might consider giving you that 2 cents back.

So does Eve Online patch like World Of Warcraft? ie They dispatch the patches beforehand and make them live, unlike say Elite Dangerous, which just releases patches when they are like and oyu download them that day.

Hey, look, my first downtime! So, what's the longest anyone remembers a downtime lasting? I'd love to hear some stories!


Couple days.

And there was the time they broke star gates. That was pretty amusing.

They did not break it, as I remember it they deleted it as part of the update, and then forgot to reinstall it.

Hi there,

As someone who has played eve for years now, welcome.

CCP have done a wonderful job over the years, patches for the most part go much smoother now. I can remember when eve was down for hours and hours at a time. So rest assured. This is not common and it is not usually this bad.

Welcome to eve, and may Bob have mercy on your soul


Thanks for the warm welcome!
Ofcourse I heard of EVE, and about 6 years ago I first tried it. Got some kids who needed to be fed, so that kept me away. Now I'm back to play it good! :D


Thought I was the only one.. Good luck - and if I see you on the Overview I'll go for you first ;)


Booom mwahahaha Cool

How long ago was the last roll back - I don't remember one in many many years.

If you are referring to the TQ hardware switch, no matter how much they did, that was never going to go smoothly
