This is bothersome mostly because I have unplanned Me Time and wanted to play, or at least look at the interface before my wife found me.

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

What other MMOG has thier fourms go down whenever the game is down too? Granted it means less complaints when the server IS down, but I would like to read them.

I really just wanted to download the patch, at least!

Can't find it on their 'patches' list yet either.

But then EVE will be up and I'll be NDA in NDA with my NDA, instead of NDA in EVE.

I got the patch, got in, set Drones V and got out.

You'll need to reset your overviews.

I had an agent offering me a bug, which I rejected (I hear the market for Bugs in Jita is going to be way over supplied this week).

I played the 14 day trial and between the pacing of the game (e.g. snooze inducing travel) and the UI I didn't feel like subscribing.

I managed to set missile bombardment III for training right after downtime. But this morning I forgot to change it back to missile launcher V

anyone else having trouble with the client after the patch? It eats 98-99% CPU when I alt-tab in a situation when it didn't require more than 10-15-30 before (just warping through space or sitting at the login screen or in station). It even bluescreened my windows once :(

As a matter of fact I swallowed one of these about two hours ago and the explanation is that it is, in fact, my hand.

I have heard bad things about ALT-TAB, but so far I have not had any issues with ALT-ENTER, which is what I use instead.

The thing is I play windowed in the first place. Even if I alt+tab out of windowed it bugs out on me :(

Well I did not have any problems, but I was using the minimize button, or I just foregrounded the other thing I was looking at.

Seems to be down. Man, I'm glad I stopped doing my trade routes. All of these outages would have driven me crazy.

There was a note in the login screen about it?  Or is this another unplanned outage?  Haven't looked at EVE since maybe Saturday or Sunday for like ten minutes to swap some skill trains.

They pushed a server update from Friday to this week, maybe they are doing that today.
