EVE Information Portal

So I have attempted to log in for the last hour with no success. Tried the bin/Eveexe.exe method, all with no success. Here is what my log-in screen says when I successfully open the launcher:
Now, maybe you can tell me what I need to do now. Oh, is CCP going to compensate all of its players for thier troubles with this. I think they should for all of this leg work for an untested updates and patches. Well CCP you asked what we were seeing when we logged on, and I now present to you........This mess........

I saw his post. I'm now drinking whisky and watching the other forum thread that CCP guard mentioned. I'm hoping to see some sort of update there in an hour or so, even if it's just to say that you love us and are still working on it.

No

Hi!
I've loaded the patched launcher and both of the pages you asked about opened. The txt page took several minutes to open though. the loader opens and takes my user and password but the "PLAY" button never lights up and does nothing when I click on it. do you have any helpful suggestions?...PLZ! I'm an eve junkie and need my fix!!!

I still cannot login, just says "Server Status Unknown" I completely uninstalled eve and reinstalled and updated and it still lists it as "unknown"

I included a pic of what I'm seeing.

Be assured that we read this thread (and all others too) carefully as player feedback is very important to us.

We update you with information as soon as we receive them from our incredible busy developers, sometimes it is best though to keep the experts doing their job uninterrupted for a while while they are developing a solution.

Hi,
Launcher wont start, gives the no internet bla bla, people have linked a hundred times in this thread, getting the game up and running, status tranq - incompatible ( protocol ).
Where is my game?
Almost 3 years, You dudes up in the cold north usually don't do this EAstyle.
And no, I'm not trying anything, I'm not going to move my **** to high memory because of the 640K limit, I'm not rewriting my .bat anything, this is 2013, not 1996, I pay - You fix.
Have a nice evening, Ill check again in an hour, I'm sure you have fixed it by then.

this worked for me

CCP Phantom, why you cant just share direct link for "Retribution 1.2.4 (version number 538542)" patch? You can upload it on any server in the internet and it can save your server from repair.exe DDOS.

Maybe its that volcano again? :D
