Omg try to cry a little more the game has not even been launched for more then a week, you know if you can't take this, i don't think mmos is the thing for you dude.
If you feel the need to insult random strangers, perhaps MMOs aren't the thing for you either. Social skills develop better in a real-world environment and may help you manage your overt hostility.
I don't know if it's everyone, but I'm stuck at trying to update launcher too. Sad!

What ? Insult? okey..... call it what you want but if you don't want responds to what you have to say, its a crazy thing to post it on a forum dude.
I have the problem of "Trying to update the launcher, Please be patient," followed by a time out error.
I think it's okay for a newly released game to have problems like this one. I have other games, other things I can do, and I'm still on my free month and have a two-month card waiting after that. The money for the game and game time isn't enough to get worked up about. If that amount of money is enough to justify all the QQ I'm seeing here, maybe you should be studying so you can finish a degree and earn a little more money. Use this as an opportunity.
I am also having this problem, though according to the website, the server is down, thus I don't know if I'm simply having the same issue, or whether I'm having the issue because the server is down.
Well, I also have this problem, but I´ve had this kind of problem with EVERY single MMO-game I´ve played, and there has been some over the years. So just calm yourselfs down, watch a movie, hang with family and friends, and sooner or later this issue will be fixed. Patience my friends, paticence!!!!
I succeeded to download the new patcher and it patched around 500 mb. After that, I clicked to enter the game and now the client is crashing every time I launch it without using patcher
If I launch the patcher, I have the same problem as everyone here.
I wonder, does the small "please be patient" mean that theres a cue system at work?
Or are we better of starting and stopping all the time, to chance a grab at a vacant serverslot?
There is no cue system no, it will just time-out after a min or two. Also as the servers are all down now stopping and starting sll the time isnt going to get you anywhere either. We all just have to sit it out and wait for the fix i suppose.
I'm still on the little box that says "trying to update." I figure it's a server issue but since the forums seem to be getting a little more reliable maybe the game will be up soon.

I've played several MMO's most currently WoW since release - I just expect company's that have done MMO's before to know better when releasing. I just don't feel like waiting a week or month of frustration to play an MMO when I have a more stable one to enjoy.
Hmm... I've just come back from over two and a half hour break, when the server went down and I couldn't recon and now:
Server: STILL DOWN
Autopatcher: STILL DOWN
Even the Friendslist: DOWN
And still no Official update on whats happened and estimated fix?
WAY TO GO CRYPTIC!!
I thought Lifetime Subscription meant the time you could play the game, not the time it takes to fix or even tell your 'valued' customers what's happened! :mad:
Just remember WoW guys...they had so much downtime they had to reimburse us money because it was DAYS of downtime. Just because others have come before you doesn't mean yours will be flawless.
Also having this problem, however ahving a bigger problem reading posts with "wtf i'm leaving this sucks". You'd think most people ahd never experienced an mmo launch before.

First of all its all okey, just don't like the way you made your other post, and non of us really know what happend so im a little tired of ppl "acting" like they know whats going on and then go crazy over it, i understand your frustration, but we still don't know what has happend... so ppl should stop blaming and talk like they never are going to get another chance to play again.

"thank you" finaly some one who seems to understand what im talking about.

And yes, Im' having this issue.
I understand your point but most customers dont care about it. If they can choose a perfectly working MMO that had some issues in the past but not anymore and a new MMO thats having issues right now the choice for most is obvious.
What I mean is that comparing this game to WoW 4 years ago is a pretty weak excuse since most ppl only care about the present (cuz honestly, why would they care about the past?).
And i was just about to post the same thing about you I've experienced much worse than this, after playing WoW and witnessing serious bugs going un-patched for months WAR with serious server lag for way too long Hellgate with everything possible breaking, all this really puts into perspective a few hours of downtime. At least downtime means it is being fixed. I much prefer downtime and patching to "Working as intended". Everyone should just chill and play the Arkham asylum demo over and over

Well i would like to know what MMO that had "a totaly" perfect launch? and i would never change back to WoW becourse of the "now" pretty lame graphic, and i think a lot of "new" mmo players feel the same way "been playing WoW for 3 years, so no im not a hater"
I have the same problem. Try exiting the Updating Launcher, and re-running the .exe again. I usually manage to log on after a few tries. But it's still completely unacceptable. I also get disconnected in-game more often than should be normal, and I ALSO get disconnected (or I guess a plain old game crash) at the character creator. This in one buggy game right now. Hopefully that big patch solves some of these issues. But so far I'm not impressed by the quality of the code, or by the support we're getting. And to come back to this launcher problem, I only started having it in Live. Beta was fine. How come that the studio that brought us CoX, one of the most stable MMO's I've played, is responsible for this mess they call a game? Anyway. Of course, the one night in the week where I can game without having my wife complaining, they have to come out with a half a gig patch. And what the heck is up with the "launcher news" dates? We're the 3rd damnit, not the first! This is so silly. Get the darn dates right, I never know if what I'm looking at is current news or old stuff. Pathetic.

I'd ask for your stuff but I can't, well, log on to get it.
Yep and if he wants to shout it out on a forum, i have the rights to give him my opinion.
Guess I'll just take a number.

so give him your opinion then. dont troll and flame.
its just hammering the patcher untill it reaches its max tries and then idle out.

Seriously? i don't think im trolling when im saying my honest opinion about he's post, but ppl take it the way they want to read it .

Arrghh i want to play so bad! I got stuff to bash ;-)
Brought the game today, had all day in to spend a few hours playing it. But server says no.
haven't even played this game, yet i'm £30 down.
Really not happy. I might punch somebody and drown some puppies.

I feel exactly the same right now. Should've saved those 49.99$ and stayed with the game Ive been playing for 4 years.
And yes, Im' having this issue.
