What: First getting "DISABLED!" on private queue launch, exited and reloaded the game hopping that would solve that bug (workaround). No chat channels at all on reloading, just "Local". Typing in local gives this error: [Error] Global chat server is offline.
Why: Unknown, but I presume it has something to do with private queue bugs and high traffic. I'd really like to see private queues streamline and fixed up. They are really buggy right now...
I haven't been noticing a full on outage myself. What I am noticing is my friend's list spamming "logged off" then "logged on" immediately after. As well as my "enter chat so and so" messages.
Earlier today it wasn't so bad, just a bit of lag. This evening has been awful with the outages. While I welcome increased game traffic, it shouldn't come at the cost of communication.
Well it's not just an isolated incident just affecting me then, it's universal. That's good to know, although it begs the question to Cryptic/PWE: "What's going on? Why is chat having outages?"
On any custom channel you have access too, get into the options and change the motd. It should restore those channels and increase chatter until this gets fixed.

Friend's list tends not to display anyone offline.
Random loss of PMs and chat.
A few random SNRs and disconnects.

Does your Champion have a theme song? (share it!)
Got a funny in-game screenshot? (share it!)
Please fix the Overdrive energy unlock! (Should help promote thematic build diversity!)
