    I'm encountering the same issue. I wonder how long this problem is going to continue.

    Unable to log in either. Rebooted the router, restarted the PC. Able to ping, and browse. Cleared cache and cookies, rebooted again. Still nothing. Getting the following error: Unable to establish connection to Patch Server. Please check you internet connection. :frown:

    Yeah, my Auto-Update is failing for both CO and STO. Is someone co-hosting election results on Cryptic's servers?

    Not working for me as well, tried pretty much everything I can think of and still no results. I can't even launch the game itself without the patcher, it stays at the cryptic loading screen.

    Same issue here, but the opposite. I have CO forum access but I had to use your method to get into the STO forums...

    No access to either game...

    Not working, the launcher does not seem able to connect. Has anyone tried uninstalling and reinstalling?

    I doubt that will help with this connection issue we are all having, but I am no expert.

    I'm a little sad that i can't get in to STO though, because they finally put the conversion on the test server for the STF loot. Luckily i'm not in as much of a need to get on to champions tonight, but i wonder what it is that's affected the game. Branflakes made the comment that a lot of people over there are still playing and able to log in to the game, so it's not affecting everyone. I wonder what happened in general to make it act up.

    I can totally see them having taken the old website offline and forgotten to transition to a new patch server or so. Would totally suit them. XD

    I can finally access the forums - now to see about the game...

    Edited: Okay, I got the launcher up - after two tries. (Honest, honey, this has never happened to me before!)

    Just clicked "Play"...

    ...at the character selection screen...

    ...and the Dork Knight is in!

    To all who get "Unable to connect to patch server" errors and other types of launcher fails, delete your Internet Explorer history (yes......it connects via IE to patch the launcher:mad:)
    It worked for me and i think this will be a solution for many people.
    It seems good old IE sometimes messes up the launcher connection if there is a prior entry :rolleyes:.
    I hope it works for you to, and sry for my bad english, i'm from Hungary :smile:

    Is it unnecessary? Really? Nobody's having this problem, and has just given up asking? What are your sources for this contention?
