    That ust started to me as well.

    I was playing normally, went AFK to cool off for like 30 minutes and now I keep getting this error. I believe their server is down.

    Imagine how crazy it'd be if only the two of us couldn't get into the game, then right now there would be a huge-**** event with unique prizes that would be bound to account and therefore people wouldn't be able to give them away to us.

    Looks like something's interrupting either the server farm or connection to it - the same problem's affecting STO. (I'd check NW, but I'd have to download it first, and I'm not that curious.)

    I cannot get in either it seems. There are strong winds at least on the east coast so maybe something went boom?

    Yeah, this is affecting all three Cryptic games. We've identified what we think the issue is, now we're trying to figure out what causes it.

    Today is the big Tiamat module patch for NW, and I surmise it's all related. But somehow Craptic managed to spread the love and now the entire friggin system is down for the count. No one can log into CO, STO, or NW. Brilliant!

    What "spread"? It's one server farm. If the farm crashes, everybody goes offline.

    Well, I finally got in. But I have to say that I have never seen it try to re-login more than three times before today. Did not know that it would go to double digits, let alone 22 times. :eek:

    I ate guinea pig once. Anything is good with enough BBQ sauce.

    This should all be fixed now, folks. Thanks for your patience!

    You're unhappy that he was displeased with the taste of guinea pig?

    I think the issue might be tied to the XP alerts somehow, as i started hearing people having issues at roughly the same time as the XP alerts not paying out the right amount of XP before freezing on launch attempt...and as of the time of writing, they've been stuck on clagorn bloodstone for the past 3 hours....something's defiently wrong with them, weaither the fact that they started acting up at the same time as a few friends having login trouble may be related, or may just be condiounce, idk eaither way, something's defiently broken

    In theory, this should be fixed now (we had lingering issues after my post). If anyone else is having issues, let me know.

    After sitting through little patcher window's fugee impersonation "one time! two time!", my game launcher is now sitting for the past 10 minutes with the patch button greyed out like it is unable to access the patch server to check wether my current game version matches.

    Edit: Eventually the patching check completed and although no "Play" button appeared, clicking on the space where it should be took me into the game, and brought me back to the world of Server Not Responding and Unable to Load Map errors.

    Edit: Login server disconnected. I give up.

    I connected and played for a bit - running around Monster Island with the Duck Knight. No issues.
