And they should employ a competent cyber security firm to catch those fucks. The servers are also based in London, so they should be reaching out to the National Cyber Security Centre for technical assistance. FFS CCP - sort it out already.

Any sign of some sort of update? or is this issue still “resolved”?

there appears to be some sort of issue with the login server.

(don’t quote me)

A poor company that does not have the ability to put protection on its servers?

they have your money now so i guess it must be resolved ;p

FFS - I’ve been d/c’d like 40 TIMEs today (at least). Every frakken time I log in and as soon as I click on anything, it freezes up and then closes the socket.
Yesterday every thing worked fine and right now the launcher shows over 16,600 people logged in so it would seem that only some people are being affected for some reason.

Ok, so now this has gone from happening to me every 5-10 mins to every 2 mins. I log in docked, open my notepad, write some stuff in it, 2 mins later, Sockets closed (only to do it all again cause the changes never save, awesome.).

simply clicking warp or dock sound familiar?

still getting ddos i guess? Having trouble being connected for more than 2 seconds.

Another day another unreliable server. WHY oh WHY. Everytime. Its not playable if its not reliable. Every time I loose my connection all my drones say goodbye and its 20 jumps to pick up some more. Guess another day wasted.

I meant if you download and use a non-vetted VPN providers custom made software (which btw employs unsafe ciphers for encryption), you have no guarantee that they don’t sniff or mitm your SSL traffic. You just have no control over that. And then it doesn’t matter that the EVE launcher verifies certs, and it probably does.

Ok, guys, things just got real.

I’ve done the hoovering, done the dishes, & now I might actually have to have a bath!!! What the hell CCP!? :stuck_out_tongue:
