EVE Information Portal

Thanks for the info Agonis, but no the repair tool will still fail with the old symptoms. The only way I was able to fix it was to run the launcher installer again.

I have ESET AV but SPI is disabled for the 4 EVE executables (eve.exe, repair.exe, launcher.exe, exefile.exe). The culprit is launcher.exe tbh.

I think they should just fix the launcher; better yet just remove it as it doesn't really introduce anything else that's useful than was there before.

You're never going to get CCP to remove the launcher and most of the game launchers out there use torrent by default which isn't a terrible thing. It works and doesn't cause firewalls to throw fits because of malformed packets being passed via rsync >> http wrapper.

I agree, I hate the launcher as well. I'd love for them to roll it right out the door but they're using it as a marketing tool and to dumb things down further yet.. the launcher was just a bad idea from inception but they never float these ideas by their player base before they implement them and they can't be bothered to read their own forms on Sisi when there is a decent size foot print of players that were complaining about the issues they ran into after they released it. Really bloody pathetic IMHO.

Let me know if you need some help. Hit our forums or jump on TS and give me a yell.

Greetings lions,

Don't know if it has been mentioned yet. But ever since i put my left side menu on auto-hide all icon's on screen vibrate when the menu goes to hide.

selfquote, bump!

2 days now with no new patch, no answers to my petition, no fix, and the game is still unplayable...

unsatisfied!

Oh and while ur at it vote PsycoBtich for CSM! http://www.eve-online-dark-taboo.com/vote/ HAHAHAHAHHA

LMFAO

I'm am actually surprised they haven't tried fobbing us off with the "our server log's show no errors"

Let's face it, CCP's customer service has been poor to say the least since the game's start back in 2003 and with each year that passes it get's worse and worse to a point where seasoned pilots like myself don't even bother making petition's because it's a waste of time and energy typing....


CCP if you do read this.... SORT YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE OUT, LISTEN TO YOUR EMPLOYERS AND REMOVE THE LAUNCHER.

IT IS AN UNNEEDED & MORE IMPORTANTLY UNWANTED ADDITION.

Uh ... so what you guys are saying is ... setting all my characters to 10 day skills ... wasn't long enough?

Damn ...

In the drone window, can you remove the .00 after the ammount of drones you can launch? right now it says "12 of max 12.00". can it just be set to "12 of max 12"?

I've been playing for nearly 8 years now and one thing I've come to understand about CCP is that on multiple occasions, instead of taking the time to listen to their customers first before moving on something, they will and do push changes through that have impacted customers in a very large way regardless of warnings in the various Sisi forum threads they have had over the years.

My question to CCP is simple.

Why create a product and a test platform where your users when the feedback they give you is ignored?

We can point at forum posts on Sisi that go back a couple of months where the data corruption issue was posted. We can see that CCP was in some cases replying and asking for more info. However, we can see from impact that instead of correcting those errors that CCP pushed forward and pushed out a product that was not ready for the production server.

Auto manufactures would have an immediate recall notification posted about a defective product. CCP looks at 6000 players affected as a small impact but 6000 verses 37,000 is not exactly such a small number when you put them side by side.

These changes caused impacts for Linux, Mac, and PC subscribers. Toy, Auto, and various other product manufactures would have recalled their products by now. CCP continues to push ahead with a broken product, refuses to admit they've once again made a huge mistake such as they did last summer with Incarna, and after apologizing and promising to change they way they do business and handle their customers, they have once again ignored past mistakes, customers, and violated their word to their loyal community.

CCP, you're already losing customers over this. How many of those 6000 user accounts have to stop paying and cancel their accounts before you feel the pain of this mistake?

Why do you people refuse to roll this launcher back and make right by your players and admit that you guys rushed a solution into place that simply is not ready for consumer use?

I too have considered cancelling my accounts as I have three that I've played for the last 7 and 8 years. I was patient during RMR and the week of pain that CCP put us through during that deployment.. I've seen many patches go very wrong with this game over the years. The one repetitive theme has been that CCP fails to listen to their customers properly when they are given more than ample feedback on Sisi.

Last point to case. Sisi is the test platform. Releases should be as stable and error free as possible before each release. Small bugs are acceptable that aren't seen on Sisi as a result of the smaller footprint of users on the test server that might not catch things. But when you have known issues there should never be a production release made until those issues are inspected and resolved or proper workarounds are accompanied by patch notes explaining why it was released and how to fix it until the issue can be resolved.

If the issue becomes impacting enough that a large number of complaints hits the forums or petitions, CCP should consider an immediate rollback of the code and move forward with new solutions before they attempt to redeploy something that is broken.

That's been the standard practice with every company I have worked for that has in-house software releases. There is always a backout plan ready as soon as the deployment is found to cause major issues. It's more important to keep your customers happy and able to operate than it is to force progress upon them and thus causing them the inability to play or use your software.

CCP has seriously come to look at it's customers as hostile from the way that we are treated. To say otherwise by anyone at CCP at this point contradicts their actions. So consider that before you guys continue to screw over your customers.
