    I'm also not able to launch the patch server. I'm having the same problem on 2 separate computers in my house, so I know it's not just isolated to mine.

    Maybe Cryptic just testing our patience ... (They probably have no idea that the cup of patience overflowed soon ... )

    and disconnected again right before i finished the mission. :mad::mad::mad::mad:

    I strongly advise anyone not to attempt any quests, STFS, or anything serious in the game right now as it's very unstable and you will get kicked out every 5 minutes.

    PWE & Cryptic are two names I'm avoiding the next time I'm looking for an online game.

    It seems there are still login problems at cryptic side. I cannot start the launcher and just very seldom get the chance to connect - to be disconnected after a short time.

    Any idea whats going on?

    Now that you mention it, I got DCed an hours ago out of the blue as well, but could log back in at that time.. and I had laaag just before this thing..

    Mods actually only have the same tools every other players do to diagnose issues. We have no backend access so yes, when we can see the game works for us and we can only go as far as saying "do this to try and fix it" that's all we can do.

    Like it or not, we aren't super beings :P

    That was some apology.

    Let's see...
    I was doing a mission when I noticed unusual choppiness. It progressively got worse. This was about 40ish minutes before I DCed.
    I was using the US proxy option.
    I'm in the Washington DC area with Verizon ISP.
    Hmm...
    That's all I can think of atm.

    Well that page isn't exactly reliable... Been there half a dozen times when the game was up, and it still said that it was down.
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...

    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    Should try that little used forum.. Gameplay Bugs. There is some stuff there that was happening an hour before the server actually went down for all.

    I'm having the same problem. I downloaded the latest launcher as recommended if running into these types of issues, from the following thread...
    http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=505501

    This didn't help. I got the following errors.log...

    Interesting. They must be more like Cryptic and instead share reliable info...

    I played the Neverwinter beta long while ago, and I loved it. Their games are a lot of fun (though paying to win is a little meh). Can't expect perfection out of these systems. That will never happen. I'm merely frustrated at having to kill the same annoying comet time and time again. :D
