    Can't go in the foundry mission:


    "GS shutting down before getting to ready state"


    Is probably the Foundry event Week-end the problem ...

    Yup, huge spike a little while back, then a series of d/Cs, culminating in a red server light and an unable to authenticate error.

    This aint just chat, and the server may be up only for a few seconds at a time.

    Yeah, I'm getteing an "Unable to authenticate" error while trying to log in, but obviously it doesn't affect players already in game, otherwise the forum would be flooded with angry users

    Looks like its unable to authenticate time again. Always fun to get DC'd mid mirror, then be unable to relog in.

    And given that chat routes through that to connect people from different pwe games, this seems possible.

    Sorry to report that we are experiencing some issues with the Launcher.

    We are investigating what is causing this issue, and we will update the thread as we receive more info from our team.

    Sorry for the trouble everyone.

    Thanks for your patience!

    So your telling me post patch that you actually close the client executable all the way (or shut the machine down) and then relaunch the client WITHOUT the launcher at a later time and still login? Every single time I have ever tried it it always times out connecting to the account server as if it was never passed the current ip. But this is always while the game is otherwise working.

    If you leave the client open and logged out thats not the same thing. I ask because as I said I haven't seen it work and its a solid assumption seeing as how almost any MMO with a launcher works this way and what I observed seems the same. Thats not to say there isn't a way to make a shortcut and put the IP in a switch which if you have done is also a detail you would need to bring out.

    Obviously I dont close my PC after a patch, but my desktop link is directly to the client...

    If you can't log in throught the client, you're doing it wrong.

    Theres a login screen IN the client...
    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.
