    Chat has been disabled completely at the moment. Social tab is down too and it claims you are not in a guild anymore...

    what is going on?

    I'm just getting up to 5 mins lag is all. But that's a common problem when the chat is messing up.

    Guessing this is a server side issue.

    Chat has nothing to do with ARC. Arc has been out since sometime last year and it has never affected chat before. arcgames website has no interaction with in-game chat. It would be a server-side issue.

    I thought it was just me...


    Last time this happened, they were working on the chat channels. I guess they are doing such right now, as well. That, or that part of the system crashed on them.

    On top of the chat issues mentioned in the posts above I have mail issues: it either takes minutes to send stuff to my alts or it isn't working at all.

    Wouldn't fixing something that is broken take precedence over a livestream of something "fun"?

    EDIT: Shouldn't

    Cryptic has "one" chat server so it's down in one game it is almost always down in their others.

    i had someone say in the stream that the chat is fixed. i'll get a confirmation on that.

    *chat server is offline, but the stream is over so shouldn't be much longer... depending on what the issue is.

    Chat is still offline 10:08 am Australian EST (Brisbane) Am trying to get party together for CTA event. Why is it when you release an event, something always goes wrong elsewhere????

    Is it just me, or does something break every single time an event is added?

    There does seem to be a developing correlation between CTA and the chat server acting up. Maybe there's something in the Orc Assualt that never really got fixed then they activated the first version again?

    Of course it could also be something to do with the surge of people that come back and do CTAs?

    Yes, my Friends list appears to have been wiped. I sure hope this IS related and will be fixed when chat is back up. Which it isn't.

    Same here. Also custom chat channels don't appear in the Chat Options box anymore.

    it appears there's a chat backlog as i'm getting a bunch of log on/off notifications. it may have to catch up first before it is fully operational.

    We are aware and looking into the issue. No ETA on resolution at this time. I will try to update when I can if I get more information.
