Seems ever 10-15 mins im getting the boot. im sure there are lots and lots of ppl trying to get in but after manyt closed as well as open betas I should be used to this by now lol. Good job by the so far the game play is excellent.:D
I'm getting booted a lot as well, but the most painful part is that it's taking me 5 minutes or so trying to get back in, only to get 'map full' or 'disconnected from log in server' and have to try again - ingame stuff seems to be working fine, but only getting 5-10 minutes of play while getting 20 minutes or so of trying to get back in.
Same here. Can't log in. Gets stuck at "retrieving list of characters". Only got in to play once so far and it was really laggy. Imagine what it's going to be like when people start getting off work.
Getting the boot constantly as well. some minor lag issues here and there, most of it graphical because there is so much going on in certain areas.
I wonder if there is a latency threshold dialed into the server application. you know to boot people that appear to have timed out or have too high a latency for good game play.
If this is the case then I guess me living in Holland isn't helping my latency much
If the folks at Cryptic had any common sense...cough cough...they would have built more servers because they should have known that lots of people would be online today for the open beta.
Same here I can for 5 min befor disconnection or go 30 seconds. Hopfully the login and disconnection problems will get fixed soon. They say they are working on the login, hope the d/c comes next.
been an 1hr 40 minutes so far and i think Ive played about 10 Min's of the game. The game is excellent but i think the Borg are king of lacking visually. Also they should add a spell checker in the forums not make you dl one.

Same here, after the boot and login attempt I get stuck at "retrieving list of characters".
I keep getting stuck on the initial load screen and cant even get my list of characters. before that I kept getting booted whil trying to make my first character. Spent all night downloading the game and now cant get in to play...confused: I think we need more servers.. just a guess.:
Cryptic needs to get their butts in gear...this is bull. This many problems during an OPEN beta is pathetic.
Agreed and they expect us to actually PAY for this with cash too! I waited 3 hours so far and still no fixes its obvious the servers cannot handle the traffic and when the game launches theres gonna be a ton more! I am gonna cancel my pre-order I think..

Judging by the arrogance in your post you must not have been in MANY betas. From my experience this is on par for the first open beta day. Please save your wit lacking retort that is sure to follow.

Guys this is still an BETA. The whole reason of it is to get out the bugs of the system. And because of the start of the open beta I guess the systems run at max. It's not final release its open beta, don't expect that everything works !!!!!!!!
Yeah I'm probably just going to give up and try again tomorrow or later, lol put the petal to the metal to get home for this , oh well its just an Open beta I'm more concerned about my head start and perks for pre-ordering.

Seriously?
Expecting the software to work perfectly in beta is not logical.
Better that these things are found now rather than at launch, and cause a huge headache then. Relax, have a beer and enjoy the dip.
And to Cryptic, good job so far, but I am going to echo the inability to get in right now, and the launcher now is hit or miss on whether it loads all the graphics-that's a connection/bandwidth issue I would expect from all us ... Well, mostly happy campers trying to get in.

Same here and i agree with the servers over loged.
