    It happens almost every time i come out of starbase 24 from the rescue mission.

    Timed out in the Starbase 24 mission. When trying to log back in, I get the OP error.

    Also stuck. Seems like there's two answers to this. Is it that my game's bugged and I should repair - or is it the server and I just wait it out?

    I got disconnected in the middle of a mission and can't get back in because it has to retrieve my one character for 15+ minutes.

    Me too, stuck on "Retrieving List Of Characters". It would be nice and make more sense if there was a "CANCEL" button at this screen instead of having to alt+cntrl+del to get out of program.

    Since there were 5 messages between my typing and submitting, I'm going with the server being borked. Two days till proper live!

    I feel like Flick in "A Christmas Story" with my proverbial tounge stuck on the frozen post waiting for my characters to show up.

    Let's hope they fix it before finale release.

    Just got the the end of 1 part in a patrol the Orion Sector and I get disconnected. Now I'm stuck at the loading characters screen. Waited 10 mins for it to time out so I could close out of the program. Had to go into task manager to kill the program. It's like it was locked up even though task manager showed the program was running. Launching the program does show the server is UP but still can't get past the Loading Characters screen.

    All this about 20 mins ago.

    If there are this many issues with the servers and it's just the people that have pre-ordered and/or were doing the beta.... Anyone care to guess what's going to happen on the Official release in a few days? :eek:

    If need be, I can provide gaming server sites Cryptic may be able to contract the use of servers/bandwidth until they can figure out who dropped the ball on ordering the servers and calculating the bandwidth.

    Login and authentication appear to be fine its the account database that appears to be down.

    This is just me randomly pinging stuff from netstat and seeing what comes up dead and what doesn't.
