Push this to the Launcher so that people actually see it.

So uninstall.

We heard you the first five times. If the amount of bandwidth is that critical, then a luxury like EvE should probably go. 🤔

Bandwidth isn’t the issue. It’s just an annoyance.

Because even before I cared to read the extended maintenance downtime announcement, _frosty_ went and checked on the latest

Oh, really?

Do tell us how you expect them to unravel 20 year old legacy code without a complete rewrite of the entire thing. You’re obviously a coding genius, so where’s the CCP tag in front of your name so you can fix this for us?

Just like everyone is the perfect football trainer and knows everything better, everyone here seems to be a super coder who can judge code quality and spot errors in said code just by playing the game or by getting a downtime notification.

Tell you what. Next time you have a plate of spaghetti or any other string pasta, I want you to sit there and separate the pile into each individual noodle before you eat it.

Shouldn’t be difficult, you just need to take the time to actually do it, right?

That’s orders of magnitude easier than what you want CCP to do.

Then you run face first into reality and it’s limitations on resources.

You wishing and hoping for something that will never happen is all well and good. But you need to be realistic about your expectations.

When I call tech support, I expect them to be able to help me fix my issue. Reality is they’re reading from a script and know less about the product they’re supporting than I do.

Goodness people. I can get crabby with CCP too, but relax a bit, eh. It’s a miracle this game works at all, tbh. Please let me know the other MMO that supports tens of thousands of people playing on a single shard, massive fleet fights involving thousands of people (TiDi or not, it’s pretty remarkable), and has been consistently for over two decades. I’ll go play that.
