    Closed this thread as it's for a different issue than today's issue.

    Not sure how a login server issue becomes a three hour maintenance, but okay....

    Maybe it's a DoS attack, who knows? I was okay until I tried changing my character and then I couldn't get back in no matter what I tried. I noticed from the chat that people had been having this problem previously and it seemed like pure luck that they managed to relog.

    Always have a backup game. It is known.

    Hmm... has this anything to do with the >4 gig patch they are rolling out on STO perhaps?

    The server is back up now. Thank you for your patience.

    I am getting the following error on logging in "Account TIcket Problem" and the launcher shows "Unable to Authenticate: Connection to the Account Server Timeout"

    Whats going on and why am I locked out of my account.

    Thread reopened as it appears to be happening again. :(

    Yes it is still happening. Server status shows Green but Authentication is failing. And I should note that I am on a Business Internet Connection at my residence with a guaranteed SLA, so I know it is not an issue on my end.

    I've never had the unable to authenticate problem until after today's emergency maintenance and now I can't get in the game.
