    A lot of things wrong today.Chat is screwy,all I can switch to is local and all other channels are quiet.I tried to do a foundry mission and it stuck on loading screen till it timed out after about 7 minutes to login screen.
    yeah, the entire foundry seems to be down.

    The one good thing with no chat channels/zone chat working at all is not dealing with spammer sales chat when visiting public hubs.

    Yay for the dev tracker.

    Unfortunately, my question is not on there.

    Again, I ask...is there some issue with new accounts not being able to log in?

    You can turn zone chat off anytime through the chat settings...

    That place spams so much, I've wondered if people actually purchase from there. I mean, they have to, right? I can't imagine that place being so dedicated, if it was not generating some cash flow.

    Crazy.

    This supports my earlier statement. Perfect.

    Umm, yeah. Not really dude. Sorry.
    If you've come to the forums to complain about the AFK system, it's known to be bugged at the moment.

    Why people like this continue to play is beyond me. Complain and complain but keep coming back lol. Hilarious.
    Because the only way something can be improved upon is when someone tells them what is wrong.
    If people always tells them everything is perfect and agree with everything they do, then nothing would every get fixed.

    The odd part with Cryptic is you can tell them till you are bluegeek in the face and they still don't fix the obvious or playtest the balance changes they make...

    Helloez.

    Time is 3:34 am here in Finland "+2gmt i think" and just got msg popping to screen that global chat server offline. Well,it's been like that for me about 40mins,but only now saw that server msg popping to screen and good to know that's cause of that and not cause of my Sto client bugging. I haven't been able to see any chat at all during this time and chat options doesn't show any of my created custom channels and i have few of them.

    I assume this global chat tech prob will be fixed tomorrow if not soon :) Now can't wish Happy Safe New Year 2015 for any one,but i wish it for all here hehe.

    Happy and Safe New Year 2015 for all Sto staff ppl and Sto fans :)

    Near 8pm central time and I still can't get in.

    The launcher might still say the server is down but you can still hit the button and launch the game. The server is up.

    Chat, the Foundry, and Zen Charge/Transfer is not working at this time.

    Yes, you can get in, you cant talk to anyone, your friends list ect. is gone and you will get kicked for no reason with no warning.

    It's not letting me in at all. It claims invalid username/password and despite my having changed it to hopefully reset it no luck. I'm using the standalone launcher, when I tried to use Arc instead hoping that would work it doesn't even think the game is downloaded on this machine.

    Help is much appreciated!

    New accounts, and likely those that change their passwords, will prob not be able to get in right now due to some of the continuing server issues. The network engineers are working on it but I don't have an ETA for you at this time.

    The game launcher has a new message. It says "The Chat and Foundry services are unavailable at this time" so they are probably fixing it. It's just a matter of time...
