Getting really tired of these little 6MB micro patches for the launcher that I'm not even using. Can you NOT increment the entire game's version every time you tweak an image in the damned launcher?? I'm happy running from exefile.exe, and NEVER want to see the launcher. |

I am hoping for the day when one of these patches fix the damn sound issue that keeps the warp sound cycling even though your docked.

Are they patches for the launcher, or patches for the game?
And if they are patches for the game, do we really want them to hold off on smaller bugfixes for a week at a time and hit us with one large patch each week?
I thought this is what the launcher was for. To allow CCP to more quickly and easily patch their game. If you're driven to threaten others with harm or violence because of what they do in game, you can't separate fantasy from reality. That "griefer/thief" is probably more sane than you are. How screwed up is that? |

Right, because MMOs with such a complex codebase almost never have to patch or update code.
I'm not a fan of the launcher atm either, but if you're multi-boxing from the same install, use the launcher for your first login and the exefile link for the rest and you'll be fine. If you've just got the one character, the launcher works much better than the initial release.
I find that without a good mob to provide one for them, most people would have no mentality at all. |

I'm waiting for the day people stop complaining about the launcher, which is really not that bad, and just let the game auto-patch. |

1. Witness player hate the launcher and use .exe to launch eve. 2. CCP releases patches on almost a daily basis. 3. Launcher hating player must use launcher to update game before he can use.exe. 4. CCP wins. If you're driven to threaten others with harm or violence because of what they do in game, you can't separate fantasy from reality. That "griefer/thief" is probably more sane than you are.

The launcher's fine - it does what it's supposed to do - patch the damned game and launch it for you. I'd prefer it if I didn't have to go back to the launcher every time I wanted to change a character, but I can live with that. Eve Online: The full-contact sport for your brain. |

I dont complain much.. rarely even.
But can you please ask the guys to fix that annoying warp sound that keeps playing even when your not in warp.
I have to disable the sound ingame and enable again for it to go away.

I have to agree.
It exits and loads so quickly that I am over that now as I've had worse experiences with loading screens/switching characters in other games. |

That and prior to that you'd have to completely reboot the client and login again. Still a step forward to only have to click the play button again. The Drake is a Lie |

Honestly, if they would let me have multiple launchers open, I wouldn't even care about dropping back to the launcher. I'm not sure if that's technically feasible though. Eve Online: The full-contact sport for your brain. |

I quite like the launcher. Quick click or password change to switch character/load new account.

KUDOS to CCP for updating the game.
I will take a micro patch any day of the week. It only takes a few seconds a minute on the outside to update. Excellent time to grab a drink before settling down.
Now I could see people getting tired of it if you had lots of accounts or where someone was doing log on games. Yeh that could be pain, so sorry.
But I would rather have a bug fixed then sit out there for a week or 2 and then have a large patch. |

The launcher is doing what it was designed to do. Install patches and lauch the client.
As compared to 2008 when I started playing, the current launcher/patch/client is much more stable and CCP in particular has been able to respond to bug fixes much quicker.
On the whole an improvement.
Players have short memories. And NEW players have no idea how far this game has come. Gone are the days of the DT lasting 45 minutes to an hour.. EVERY NIGHT. Now they are less than 15 minutes usually. Cumulatively, that amounts to a lot more online time now as compared to years ago. Yes, there is the occasional issue that is unplanned. BUT, CCP has been very responsive to these issues.
As for the OP's connection speed... that is on YOU. CCP cannot design this game to the lowest connection speed on the planet. Move out of the fricken Borneo jungle and get some bandwidth. |

And here I thought fixing minor game issues as quickly as possible was a GOOD thing... how silly of me.
The patches have been fixing game issues, not launcher issues my friend. To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |
