EVE General Discussion

patched and just lost all my bloody settings

time to emorage go to bed and hope when sober brain wakes up he can fix this shitstorm

too much drunk, I can't brain anymore today

What´s this to do with the settings menu? It does not help here in any way.

There should be a check-box somewhere in there for shut the f*ck up.

Also:

Welcome to my world, I lost 2 GTCs because CCP decided that posting **** on a god damn forum was equal to sending out a message to all the people playing the game directly, either via email or in game message back when they switched to shader 3. Don't expect the fanboys with **** covered noses to understand what you are trying to say. All they can see is ccp's pasty ass.


Now...I'd be okay if they would just ******* get "dock" to actually do something other then warp to 0 and sit there. I guess i am clicking to dock because I want to sit outside station at zero instead of ...you know...docking the **** up.

I'll admit I didn't test this. But, that's not really my fault since I'm not a forum whore in most cases and never heard about the launcher until it was forced upon me.

The idea behind the launcher is solid. I love the idea, however the implementation of the launcher is failed. I'm glad that it works for many people I'm happy you can use the launcher and play the game you pay to play.

However, there are plenty of us - me included , that aren't that fortunate. For me, I click my icon to pull up my first eve client (each eve client is in it's own folder, so i'm not running 1 .exe file 8 times i'm running 8 .exe files 1 time), and it tells me there's a patch. So I download the patch, and it loads this launcher.

So the launcher loads, and an hour later it says it's done but unsuccessful. Doesn't try to re-do it, it just has a button that says OK and then shuts down. So, I figure i try to do that again and click on the same icon which gives me this error:

So here i have 2 options. Delete the entire eve folder and re-download the entire 4.7 gigs of the game again. Or run the repair.exe..

#1. re-download eve and install it. installation works, launch eve and of course all my settings are removed (new installation).. Client comes up, tells me there is an update. I select that I wan't to do the update, and the above happens all over again..

#2. run the repair.exe, and it comes up telling me there is an update to it -- selecting yes causes it to error as well.. selecting no, causes it to update anyway - but it doesn't actually work..

So basically, there are plenty of people, sure we may be the 'minority', that are having issues even getting the eve client to work because of this patch. And this is what is wrong with CCP of today. The launcher wasn't necessary. It was an 'addition' that exploded and failed horribly just like the WiS was previously.

I love the idea of the launcher, but it wasn't necessary. It takes no mind, into multi-client users that have multiple client installations. And it obviously wasn't tested enough. It was probably on the test server, but really how many people truely utilize the test server? I tried once, and when after 4 hours of trying to get it to work it wouldn't I gave up and said screw it.


Oh, and now that the repair.exe is on step 7 of 7 heres the output of that..

So, not even the repair.exe works as it should.

Actually once upon a time the splash screen had no ability to patch.
Repair tool didnt exist either.
But you didnt live though that.
