I am currently getting my launcher starting in offline mode - yes I have a net connection.
I was up at 2am with insomnia to play, and had the entertainment of the fora instead, must have missed the uptime when I went back to bed, and now not working again. But it's a beautiful sunny morning and I have a day off work. So I really wish EVE would come back up soon so I can sit in a dark room all day and make ISK.

thanks I get that too, then I checked a third party service to tell me if the servers were online. CCP why you not do that? Then I tried on a laptop, and it patched fine and logged in. CCP why your service selectively blocking people? Maybe **** the launcher? I bet thats where the problem is...
Terrific, thanks for that, at least I know that I might be able to get on if I start fiddling with files and launchers. I knew I should have invested in a second laptop, double my chance of logging in.

Bill them anyway - but wow it is slow signing in 100 accounts that way

TY in advance CCP, and dont worry I forgive you.
That, and an Ishukone Watch Scorpion each aught to just about cover it.

corporal death wrote:The launcher, as well as the repair tool, cannot connect to the server. It looks like it is trying to patch, but the furthest its gotten is the little launcher info on the bottom right saying it was making a folder for the patch. Then it tells me it cannot connect to the server. FIX NOAW! If i dont fly in New Eden soon ill start to realize the world around me... I was going to go ahead and re-install the client. Now ill wait to see if someone else is having a similar issue. It says : The server you are connecting to cannot be reached. Please check your internet settings and restart the EVE launcher. The URL that could not be reached was: http://cdn1.eveonline.com/662888/RepairData_662888.datShould I just re-install?
The first time I ran the repair tool it crashed with that problem, I ran it again straight away and it worked fine then - so if you haven't tried the repair tool again, give it a second whirl. I had been logging in previously all day using a file called exefile.exe in the /bin directory, as all of the launchers were coming up in offline mode, but once the repair worked, the normal launcher worked again.
Hopefully the repair might work for you before the trouble of a reinstall.

OK i 'll do my best to be more. ...polite... ...USUALLY YOU GIVE COMPESATION FOR THIS MLFUNCTIONS!?!?!? WHAT KIND OF COMPENSATION?? Actually, usually, they don't. There is no usually about it. These kinds of malfunctions aren't a usual happening. The tend to happen more often after expansions, but compared to most, this expansion has been largely malfunction-free. If the servers are down for two hours, that represents ~.02% of total uptime for the year. It represents about 1.2% of the total week of uptime and 8% of total uptime for the day. As someone that checks his skillqueue the moment I log in every time and updates it to be at least 24 hours if necessary, I would suggest that if you had less than 2 hours left on your skillqueue, that is entirely your problem and your own fault. You would be more deserving of compensation if a hairdresser accidentally split one end on one strand of the hair on your head than you are for this. Really? ACTUALLY they do! they wrote that could happen USUALLY.... The 0,2% of total time for me it's about 5 MLN ISK or an honest COMPENSATION in skill points...just this... do you think this is a sterile complaint? i don't care ;)
Everyone that actually matters to the community thinks this complaint is pointless.
We Bittervets have been saying "don't compensate us for malfunctions" for a reason. If you don't get it by now, then you are part of the problem.[/quote]
It also seems to me that if 0.2% of the time equates to him earning 5 million ISK, he is earning enough not to worry about that 5 million, it's a drop in the ocean.
I also don't quite get people asking for skill point compensation??? Well actually I do, some people just feel a massive sense of entitlement. If the system isn't down for 24 hours or more such as was the case recently (and even if it is >24 hours, so what), why the hell would you get compensated for skill points? Not having at least 24 hours in your skill queue is a voluntary choice, nothing to do with CCP whatsoever. If you organise the thing properly you can usually have several days queued as a minimum at any point in time.
