Not sure. But I'm dealing with that, and being unable to get into the game all day. it crashes at 2/3rds on the initial Cryptic loading screen. Force verifies files each time, and keeps crashing. Tried constantly all day. Game ran fine last night, but haven't had any joy since the patch came out today.
I'm getting the same problem, freeze at around 2/3rd through the first launcher. I've tried verify, and a full uninstall/reinstall re-patch, it keeps doing the exact same thing. Error log consistently shows Link 949d888 (1) (pcl_client.c(1854)) in linkFree: patchclientlib redirecting:linkQueueRemove:sock==INVALID_SOCKET:read failed(997:Unknown socket error)
Filed a ticket. Got a reply, and trying to use the suggestion that support gave me, which is to try the Arc Repair. Didn't work. still unable to go past the 2/3rds mark.
For me, the culprit was the Alienware FX Monitor Control, uninstalling it let STO function normally. Now the in-game browser doesn't work, but whatever.
Transitioning to a new map and it's been stuck on patching 8 files, 0 bytes/s Logged out and logged in, tried loading in safe mode, also tried force verify.
it looks like the game gave up on trying to load the new location, so I was able to go back to where I was previously, just dropped the mission so I can continue.
Why is this looking very familiar? The on-demand patching seems to be the culprit..Just patch the whole game from the launcher and get in..The on-demand patchig is irritating..I allow the game to patch completely first, if its a big patch go and do some other stuff around the house..And presto we are ready to go..
Map transitioning made my game freeze up too and now I can't access my KDF at all. Not keen on trying another toon as I currently have two toons inaccessible in Neverwinter which is suffering the same issue. I'm wondering if this is related to the issue yesterday where the server light showed red but you could log in? @ambassadorkael#6946 I know this is a Sunday and all, but any kind of info? Or someone you can page on this. It's affecting at least two of Cryptic's games so this must be said to be a wider problem.
Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not the end of it.
