    This Game Is Really Starting To Get On My Nerves!!!!

    Same here after being unable to play for over a year. Add the latest changes to AD (which I understand the reasons for), and I'm thinking it's time to find another game, even as much as like Neverwinter.

    Only those that are trying to re-log or log in. Those that haven't crashed or changed characters are fine. So tell your folks that if they're currently in game to NOT LOG OFF OR GET OFF THAT TOON! For the time being, the Account Servers look like they're refusing new connections but keeping the ones that are on connected.

    As long as you don't change to an area that requires patching, at which point, the game will lock up and require a Task Manager shutdown to close it.

    It would be nice if someone from the Arc team would kindly update us. We understand that S&*% happens but making us put our own pcs (or xboxes) through a whole soaping up when it's on their end is kinda lame.

    I'm talking to Andy (@Strumslinger) about this now. I have no information at this time, other than that they are aware there is an issue.

    Maybe an announcement or a twitter update would be in order, Kreatyve?

    Thank you for letting us know you are there. I was worried we wouldn't see a moderator or admin for a few more hours. Please keep us updated on how things are progressing. :smiley:

    im trying to understand if everyone is having trouble or just us here.

    It is not your internet. It is not your computer. The server is being DDOS attacked, and it effects everyone. Not only for this game, but for other games running through ARC. So no, it is not 'just you'.

    I merged all the threads about it, so hopefully people can find them all, sorry if the info in the merged threads is repetitive.

    This is an issue I tried to get addressed months ago. They need to communicate!!!!! Even a single tweet "We know there's a problem, we're looking at it."

    It should not be coming from a moderator, but from the Company Staff responsible for the game.

    I identified the issue at 6:19 pm PDT. Its now 7:35 PM PDT and we have heard zip.

    cheers

    its about this time in an mmo that I usually hear folks screaming for some compensation for downtime/lost play time, its great to see the folks playing neverwinter are not like those in playing other mmos
