Just to make sure I am not being daft - there is nothing we can download yet, right? I'm not asking about the server being up, I just have a lamish net connection and would like to get a start on downloading any local updates. If all the issues are server-side, we ought to be able to start client update wheels in motion, yes?
Page 6 in this forum has a link that will allow you to download the new patch. Took me about 40 mins and is about 745 mb download. 
check it out - a useful answer! ashton rocks :) thanks!

Then you complain about money when all you've lost is the price of a cup of coffee.
You had me until here. 50 cents for coffee? BULL****!
To all of you whining about a 16 hour downtime: when have you EVER worked a 16 hour day? When have you deployed software that went horribly wrong? They're busting ass and we're sitting on a forum.
Trust me, this downtime sucks WAAAYYY more for them than it does for any of us.
Coffee isnt the point tho. The point is if the ammount is such a big loss for someone they shouldnt be spending money on something like a game ;) I agree with you on the long workday CCP has today. They must sleep well tonight ^^ Untill Lulzsec nukes em once TQ goes online ^^

I'm starting to wonder if my queued 3 day skill will be enough... 
(And yeah, there will very likely be patches for the updated patches and so on.)
CCP, why do there always seem to be some unforseen problem with almost every major deployment??? You guys att CCP must be asking yourself this too aren't you?

For all those addicted to Eve who *need* to play a video game before they're dead from withdrawal symptoms (which is what I must assume from reading some of these posts)... cowboy up (or cowgirl up) and go give back:
http://gamesthatgive.net/play/
OR
Go visit your favorite Eve sites and click on the advertisements to show your support. :cough:
OR
Go sit on a stick.
But for the love of God, if you're going to quit Eve over this... can I have yer sh!t? :P

If people were playing drinking games to CCP deployment delays most people would be plastered by now and I'd expect the next generation of EVE-ers to also be conceived during said games.
I am not whining, I don't mind a full day without EVE but the delay is over 4 hours now with an additional 2 more expected, ok, not abnormal... but after a 10 hour DT ? oooook I am sure as hell moving to Iceland now... if the slack for getting stuff done on time is this great I surely have a place in your company :D(expect my CV whenever tomorrow, plus minus a decade, depends on how much time it take for me to run down all the bugs in it).
To anyone who thinks I am whining: I suggest getting your hand out of your pants first because it's obvious your brain is being starved of oxygen.

Good Luck CCP

If you people dont realize it is not about the 35c (and what of most plp with multiple accounts) It is about CCP telling us yet again a time and yet again screwing up. I employ people to work for me and if CCP was working for me they would be out of a job. So you brown nose people need to take your heads from out of CCP's behind because unless you work for them, sticking up for them and making light of a serious mess wont get you any where.
What has happened here is a disgrace, Blizzard did a seemless expansion that is a lot more complex than this one and did it with no downtime at all.
As has been mentioned, this happens every time and CCP should be ashamed.
10 hours @ 12 million an hour = 120 mill lost, hint hint.
Looks like you need a pacifier too stop WHINING !

CCP,
No doubt you wont read this reponse, much like many responses whom mirror the same thoughts and feelings as my own.
I've been playing tihs game for around 7 years now, and every single time a major update comes out it is delayed. Before it used to be a small number of hours and I didnt mind, but this is just getting longer and longer with each update.
I am absolutely disgusted that a company in such a competitive market feels that its good conduct to treat their customers this way. I work as an IT Consultant, and if I was late or didn't keep my word, my word would very fast become worthless. CCP, you know people will continue to play your game, and so you feel that treating paying customers in this manner is ok. Not only is it poor business practice but it's wrong.
Just an example, I setup a skill to run which would allow me enough time to log back into the game in the two hours free I get per day, after DT and set another skill. Because of this delay that wont happen, thus I will be missing out on a full days worth of skill training.
Just to ensure that you get the point, this isnt just about losing skill times, I'm paying a good amount of money, more so than most other MMORPG's, and my gametime is being taken away because of your inability to stick to your word and do your jobs properly. If you are not going to be able to get an update out by the time you say, then you must start to factor this into your estimations. I would rather you say that servers will be down from 07:00 till 23:30 (and we all know it will be later than that) compared to 17:00, and then bump it forwards every hour or so.
Most people at a very young age learn how to manage their time and learn that sticking to your word is very important in life, and you, CCP, are acting like a teenager whom ignores both. I am truly dissapointed in how this business is being run and your treatment of customers is negligent.

Lulz and lies. 8-6 years ago in eve when a patch hit you were lucky to get online within the first week of it being released for more than a couple minutes or hours at best. And if you did get online it was just as often that some massive bug obliterated whatever you were flying or locked down whatever system you were in so you could only look at a blank screen (logged in).
so to the OP of this horrible quote. stfu, 16 hours, hell 36 hours is nothing for a patch...

Would appreciate it if everyone stopped complaining so much so that when they come out with more information they could post it without it getting lost in a field of "woes me, I can't play my game, so my life is ruined." Create a different forum on how much your life sucks. Lets let CCP finish their job, and post new information. Thank you.

Just like you people who are whining should learn to manage their time and do other things than sit there and cry about a video game not being online. Go clean your basement fortress and cry about how no girl will ever be down there with you, or whatever you lonely nerds do when you can't play with your INTERNET SPACESHIPS

Hmm I've sat through the other patches and delays without complaint but I do understand some people getting agitated today because there is no service today at all.
In general I applaud the new content and I'm sure CCP are working their hardest to get the server back up and running.
That said, someone earlier made a good point that if your pizza delivery is 30 minutes late you get a free pizza. If trains are 2 hours late you get a refund. If I have no internet all day, my internet service provider refunds at least 1 day of charges.
There has been no Eve Online all day and while that's simply unfortunate and CCP are probably as disappointed as we are, there's still been no service today and if we're paying for that service there should be some form of compensation or refund.
That said I do appreciate the hard work the guys at CCP are clearly putting in and their dedication to the gaming community. In particular it's nice that they keep us reasonably regularly update.

CCP,
If i were you... i'd give everyone who has complained about lost time... or demanded free SP a 7 day ban...
anyone who has complained about how they pay good money only to loose a few hours gametime in exchange for 15 FREE expansions.... should receive a 14 day IP ban
and anyone with the nerve to use the excuse Quote:
"im an IT developer"
should receive a perma ban :)
just a suggestion :)

There is a difference between a consultant and someone who actually has to do the service work. Saying you are a consultant doesn't tell me how much you actually get into the hardware and software changes on a live system. I actually do server updates and upgrades and sometimes overruns happen. We had a 12 hour overrun on a server replacement due to various problems most to do with improper information from software manufacturers. It happens. Managing a multiplayer online game is a step beyond and I've done this on the predecessors to today's multiplayer online games. Managing a cluster such as eve and processing a major set of changes such as listed here with some overruns is not unexpected. They also stated they EXPECTED not PROMISED 17:00 uptime.
Now you say you set your trainers so you can login each day to change them. You don't make use of the 24 hour queue period in which the trainer can be changed for you? This does extend your need to login past a daily period. We fought hard for that system so there's no excuses for missing a trainer within a 24 hour period of being logged in.
On a lighter note... they did not state what day at 17:00 Maybe they're just early for tomorrow :) I'm one of the first to poke fun at CCP and the things that go on regularly. I'm also one of the first to recognize how hard it is to do what they do on the scale they use. If you don't like it then stomp off and quit and leave more resources for the rest of us. *tips hat* oh dangit I have to get aurum to buy a hat to tip..... *stomps off looking for a hat*

a few weeks into the game for me, (im a 2 month old pilot) i was sitting very intrepidly off auga 3rd cloaked up in a probe taunting an amarr station camper with vollies of witty station games insults and fukung attacks. (your fukung is weak!) i was in comm with corp and had just been talking about a small amarr fleet we had decided to roll. suddenly i get a fleet invite and ofc i accept. next thing i know, the camper is right beside me in his tengu, uncloaking and blowing me up. far from angry i laughed myself silly. and swore to kill said camper at a later date, which i managed to do later with a well placed trap with myself as bait. anyways, this particular camper has taught me just as much about piloting as any of my incredible corp mates. the point of all this is simple. eve is just ****ing awesome, if a few hours downtime ****es you off then by all means quit. im jonesing as bad as anyone, but a lil DT is a small price to pay for the daily thrill of blowing the amarr to the seven hells. plz take ur time ccp and ty again for the wonderful game. it makes my life better and i appreciate it. now feel free to flame the hell out of me sucking up, but im bored, defying gravity, and ready to blow said amarr to said seven hells.
cheers mates!

OK I can't possibly read all 37 (ATM) pages on this thread, but - What a bunch of Whiney babypants you all are! Is this NOT the best, most intricate, immerse MMORPG in existence on the pathetic planet called EARTH???? WTF do you expect from a shining example of collaborative,State-of-the-art, bleeding-edge, technology that is EVE??
I am repeatedly drawing parallels with other paradigm shifting technology. Computer tech (on your desktop) is less than 30 years old. Consider the automobile technology +30 years. One needed to be a mechanic to keep they're Model A Ford streetworthy. Computer tech is still in it's infancy. Stop pretending it's like your TV, and get real!!
Problems happen; deal with it! And for GOD"S SAKE -- STFU!!!
