Wow, what an awful start CCP. Your patcher has no tolerance for anything going wrong. I ran out of HDD space in the 10 seconds I walked away from it. got all the way through the download, all the way through the verification, almost all the way through the patch and at NO TIME did you tell me that there wasn't enough space to continue. Now my eve install is broken, the patch is gone and I'm having to download at a pathetic speed as the rest of the world is downloading it (probably for the 4th time) and will need to reinstall *all* of my settings again..
You need to work out better ways of providing a download. Maybe just give us a .torrent file so we can use our own bit-torrent clients? Would make it *so* much faster that way too as people would be more likely to leave it seeding. Not to mention actually testing this stuff slightly more with less than perfect scenarios.
Away for a few days as of 5am tomorrow so no play for me until the weekend.. Thanks for that. |

Well there's your problem.
But, um, seriously. If you knew you were short on space, shouldn't you have...cleared some? Seems like it's entirely your fault.

Most other games tell you, warn you.

yep, no warning there wasn't enough space. Or anything obvious to say how much you would need.
Yet another CCP apologist in a capsuleers clothing though o/

For some inexplicable reason, CCP thinks failed and aborted downloads is guaranteeing "quality experience", or whatever the heck they're calling it.
So they delete all links to perfectly fine torrents that they can find. Torrents which worked great and not only got me a better download speed but most importantly, worked without any errors or problems.
Why CCP didn't just give out a torrent, a real, normal one....I haven't a clue. I mean, I saw the bogus explanation, but reality doesn't match their explanation. Didn't for me, and seems a whole lot of other folks had the same experience.
