Where did my settings go? (again) New launcher is pointless crap.

Please CCP, why do you need to delete my settings when a new patch comes out? Is there any way to get them back?
Haven't played for a few days and logged back in to find the most horrible launching tool in existence. It looks like it was designed by the work experience kid, and why does it need to run in the background and why should I have to close it every single time i start up eve? It is mind bogglingly ********.
Seriously, overview settings gone, loading into fail captains quarter again, getting warned about everything I do like jumping into low-sec again.

WHY DO YOU INSIST ON CHANGING SOMETHING THAT WAS FINE? It's like the law of successful programs, once established as a decent program, if no new content can be added, tweak and change what has already been implemented and ultimately make it worse.

You guys suck so so hard it's not even funny. Well, really it is but seriously wake the **** up.

Over the years, the process for CCP to push out a patch has become so onerous that it was becoming as big an effort to deliver a one line code fix for a crash as it was to deliver a major content release. A single code fix would take weeks to deploy rather than hours. The launcher will go a long way to allowing us to react much faster to issues when they arise and to be able to push out smaller amounts of content to you on a more regular basis as well as our big releases.



CCP needs the Launcher and i support the idea. It is going to save them time in the long run and that means the devs can use the time to add features and fix bugs.

The Launcher is a good thing for the devs and the players.

Just give them time to iron the bugs out.

so far it's piece of crap

it adds an unnecessary step between players in Eve

also it doesn't do what it's supposed to do. updates are still downloaded by the client itself, so what's the point?
