It took me about 72 hours to get the eve client it's just too long.
Also people who want to try out the game don't because they've been trying to download the game for 48 hours.
If the download time is reduced more people will play eve which means more money to CCP which will hopefully result in more eve development. |

Try downloading it on something other than a 56k modem? It took me an hour. |

Not wanting to be rude, but... some people have better Internet connections then others. Last time I needed to redownload the client from scratch, it only took me 3 hours. And I don't have exceptionally fast Internet either. If it's taking you a full 72 hours to download Eve, it's not CCP, it's you.
That said... CCP is actually working on this issue. Not so much making the client smaller, because that pretty much can't happen with a game of this sort... not, at least, without cutting features, or reducing quality, or any number of other game-destroying things... but making the installer work more smoothly, and be more tolerant of interruptions and network slowness.
Like most modern MMOs, your game experience will suffer if you lack proper broadband Internet. If you happen to live in one of the sadly impoverished parts of the world that lacks full broadband access (not saying anything about country... this includes even less-populous parts of the US, for example), then it means longer download times, more lag on your end, and an all-round worse experience. This sucks... but the fact of the matter is, there's really not much CCP can do about it.
Sorry for the inconvenience. |

My internet is fast enough. Am in Denmark and have a 6 mb downloading speed witch is about 1-3 mb effective downloading speed. The problem though is that when I download Eve not other files then the game gets downloaded with a speed og 160 kbs or something. It takes roughly 24 hours to get down but people have to repeat their downloading attempts like 2-5 times eaven the offline installer. Have a friend he has okey fast internet he tried and tried to download the game had a problem with it, more problems than petitioned it got a repair link tried it and more problems.
The way it is now people don't play eve because they just give up trying to download the game. |
