    it FEELS like it's a problem on their end, not on ours?

    I totally agree. It must be, given the wide variety of specs and cards and whatnots that people have been posting. Still, there must be _something_ we crashers all have in common!

    The only part that really frustrates me is the fact that a lot of people are still able to play.

    Remembered I had a laptop tucked away in the closet and thought hmm, wonder if that'll log in. Just an old HP laptop with win7 on it. Low and behold it logged in without a hitch. Have two other xp machines, which it crashs on load on both those. Gonna try the wifes computer which has win7 on it soon as I clear out some space and see if it works on there.

    I'm starting to think that these crashes are related to ARC. Before the patch, I was running STO fine without ARC but S8 seems to rely on ARC for some reason.

    Don't think so, I was crashing on this xp machine soon as season 8 came out and didn't have arc on this one initially. Do now after I formatted the whole drive and reinstalled windows for a trial.. Figured that'd be a garanteed clean wipe of the game.. Yeah no luck.

    Yeah, I conducted a hard reformat and restore back to factory settings, updated Windows 7 with all updates and I still get the same as well. Cryptic needs to roll back this patch.

    ahh ok, I was thinking maybe OS related issue, guess not.. Must just be a hit or miss thing.

    HEY! You hear that, Cryptic? We're still waiting! Oh, wait!

    "we will continue to work on a resolution for that and will note it in patch notes once one is available".

    It's nice to see that nothing has been updated in days. rofls

    There is a sixth dimension, beyond that which is known to STO players. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as holodeck issues. It is the middle ground between play and crash, between crash fixes and design fixes, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is a dimension of STO. It is an area which we call the Cryptic Zone.

    See what happens when I'm bored

    Same here, while I can get in via "safe mode", the lag is so horrendous that the game is unplayable. Hmm, I wonder if they'll even get this fixed before this year is over.

    I'm still waiting for Cryptic to post something, unless they've taken the weekend off.

    well i have hit a new snag this morning. woke up loaded arc, loaded STO. the launcher downloaded a twenty meg patch, launcher closed.opened it back up,hit engage instead of the game crashing at the LoR splash screen. it now freezes at the cryptic splash screen. and stays frozen. no crash no ticket number now just a freeze that forces me to reboot my pc to fix it lol. is this progress compared to four days of crashes or what? I'm going back to my corner to cry now:eek:

    Hi Captains,

    I don't have any updates to provide at this time -- wanted to let you know before I head out for the weekend. I will be watching email, and if there is an update that arises that I can provide, I'll post here.

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    Try this link for the Gateway. Right now it seems to be the only way to get any kind of access for us.
