Hi !
As a user i am not interested in seeing updates-procedures of the client or the server. It is enough for me, that i know what changes are made. So please, have some thoughts about the update-procedere from a user perspective.
- I want to play Eve, as much as it possible - I donŠt want to see or even click "update buttons" - I donŠt want to wait while downloading and extracting
My expection is - Updates loads and extracts in the background, while i play eve - CCP does a maintenance window - Server Update is done - my client starts with the new version and connects to the new server eve - the two things i see are a) new version number b) patch notes
- the only thing i had to do a) play eve...no extra button pressing, no additional sparetime !

You want to play with the old client while the new client i downloaded and installed?
Yes, that is the point.

Originally by: Astroka I see several possibilities here.
1. You're 12.
2. You have ADD.
3. You're so incredibly impatient you can't wait less than 3 minutes for a game to update (which, by the way, since the changes apply to everyone...you MUST have the current version installed to play or else it wouldn't make sense).
4. You're using dial-up and it takes hours for an update to download.
Whatever the case, my suggestion is to deal with it. It doesn't take much time or effort to update the client, stop making such a big deal out of it.
May i suggest, you think about those messages (1-4) again. It has nothing to do with my "dialup" speed (6MBit/sec) nor with my age. Have a look at update prcedures as they are now for Internet Explorer, Firefox and have a look how Chrome does it. Then take a step back from technology and think about the "user experience" (=excellence !?). then you will see and understand my point. BTW it is not (definetly not) urgent or important. ItŠs only my speak what i would like to see in some futute and therefore, what i expect as a user and customer.
