This error is making EVE unplayable for me. Doesn't matter if I login with just one account or all three, this problem pops up on a very regular basis. If I were doing anything fun lately, I'd undoubtedly have a dozen or so loss petitions due to this error. However, I won't risk getting into pvp when I know that any second, I'm going to get disconnected because the server keeps closing my socket.

Has CCP at least found the problem? Or are they too busy working on Dust and Retribution to care if we can connect to tranquility to play? If anybody has found a way to work around this blatant mistake in development, would you please contact me with advice as I see no progress in actually fixing this problem development side.

I used to get it a couple of times a week, but since the latest mac patch a few days ago I can't play for more than 10 minutes it seems without lagging out. Frustrated, going to cancel my account I reckon.

Eve has been almost completely unplayable today because of this, I posted my ping-plotter in another thread showing where my packets were being lost.


And yes, it was happening to me before today, but only a couple times a week like the previous post said, so it wasn't an issue until today.... even if the problem was there slightly.

I've had this problem since the latest patch. It hits me about 2-3 times an hour. It's annoying as hell. I get 2 windows saying my socket has closed, restart or quit are my options. The lag in the game has been unbearable. Previous to latest patch game has always run smoothly for me. Now, I hit warp, and 30 seconds later my ship is in warp, 30 seconds later I'm sitting at my destination. Corpmates telling me I arrived 40 seconds ago.

I"m going to uninstall the game, and reinstall it from scratch and see if it helps. I've already tried to clear my cache and reset all my settings.

I haven't been able to take part in any missions, or pvp since this problem started for obvious reasons. I'll be damned if I lose any ships over this issue. My only options are to mine and doing complexes. Eventually I'll just let my multiple accounts expire and go play something else.

This has happened to me several times since this past weekend. I wonder if its linked to eve's problems with node crashes lately.

CCP i am really loosing patience with you guys, you still havent fixed this fucknig bug, and me being a hardcore logi pilot in fleets its incredibly anoying when a logi chain goes down because of a bug in a game as you can imagine alot of my logi buddys are getting pretty pissed at it tbh. You are going to loose soo many people over this soon if it carrys on sort it out for gods sakes. Stop trying to fix crappy fw when theres a bug like this existing effecting everyone at some point

I would like to be able to jump into a Logi ship and not worry every 10 mins or so if my client is gonna d/c because of some ******** bug which you developed
