- Disruption of web server related services on May 21 and Launcher issues
-
On May 21, 2013, our web servers came under unusually heavy load which resulted in connection issues for all associated services that rely on the web servers, such as the EVE Launcher and the client repair tool. Our engineers have been investigating the issue with top priority and when this was written the investigation remains underway and will continue until the problem has been identified and services have been fully restored.
On May 21 we also deployed EVE Online: Retribution 1.2.4 and the new EVE Launcher. These deployments are not believed to have caused the underlying problem but are believed to have affected its manifestation. Updating the Launcher or the client requires connecting to our currently overloaded web servers and as a result, EVE Online players may not be able to either properly update your EVE Online client, the EVE Launcher, or connect properly to the Tranquility server to play EVE Online.
For anyone experiencing any of the above issues we would like to point out to this thread for further explanations and potential workarounds.
We sincerely apologize for any inconveniences caused by these unexpected server issues.
Update on 20:47 UTC, May 21
The web server issues are fixed and the EVE Laucher should be able to properly update and connect to Tranquility again. - EVE Launcher deployment on May 21st
- Rejoice Capsuleers as the EVE Launcher will be upgraded with new features on May 21, 2013. This update will be performed automatically as soon as you start your current EVE Launcher. The main change is a new and improved landing page; you will now log into EVE Online using our SSO (single sign on) service. We’ve also included a new self-update mechanism in the EVE Launcher, which will make the update process for the EVE Launcher itself more reliable and allow us to deploy more updates as we work on improving the flow into the game. In addition to these features, we’ve worked on a new version for the Mac which should also be deployed soon, which brings much closer parity between the Windows and Mac EVE Launchers, with a new embedded browser and low level tweaks to the EVE Launcher. We welcome all constructive feedback in the related forum feedback thread.
- Final day to vote for your favorite EVE True Stories
- The final opportunity for voting is almost upon us. Please visit the EVE Online True Stories site and cast your vote! These true stories will inspire books, comics, TV series or films set in the EVE Universe so ensure your voice is heard before voting ends on Tuesday, May 21 at 23:59 UTC.
- Planetary conquest bonuses delayed until May 22
- Due to some issues that came up in testing, Team True Grit, the team in charge of the link between EVE and DUST 514, has made the decision to delay the implementation of the bonuses which EVE players get from Planetary Conquest in DUST 514 until may 22. Planetary Conquest is still live on TQ, but bonuses won't take effect until Wednesday may 22. For more information about these bonuses and Planetary Conquest, please refer to CCP FoxFour's latest devblog on the subject. We apologize for the delay.
- Mass test on Thursday, May 16th
- We will be holding a mass test to test several new features for the Odyssey release and we will focus mostly on the new jump and pod death transitions. If you’re interested in attending please join us on the Singularity test server, Thursday, May 16th, at 17:00 UTC. All participants will receive a small reward of two million skill points on Singularity. Please refer to this thread for more information about how you participate in the test, and this EVElopedia article for more information on mass testing.

- Extended downtime on Monday, May 6th

Downtime will begin at 08:00 UTC and is expected to last until 12:40 UTC. We apologize for the inconvenience this causes. You can read the full patch notes for the release here.
- Unexpected API Server Downtime
- Tranquility's API servers have been taken offline as of 15:50 UTC to enable us to rectify several small issues.
