Annoying Load

Okay it seems every time I go to Sol System the loading screen takes forever, currently it won't even load past it. It's been stuck on this load screen since early hours GMT today.

    i dunno if this would help you, but it helped me.
    Try turning on V-Synch. Every time id load before i had it on it would either take forever or come up saying "server not responding" followed by a boot to the main menu. Im pretty sure it has to do with heating.

    Again it might not (probably wont) work for you, but it worked for me.

    err, exit the game, reboot, at the main menu go to options, its under the video tab.
    Should be like General Vertical Synch or something. My bad :P

    To be honest this is annoying me because I'm losing precious gaming time because of this.

    EDIT: The Options at the top doesn't allow you to do that.

    yeah stuff like this does get annoying. If this doesnt work id say your best bet is to either wait it out for a patch or reinstall the game, although i doubt it would help doing the latter.

    Have you alt tabbed or changed windows while loading? It'll stay at the loading screen until you come back to the game and press a key.

    If that's not the case I have no answer for you :[

    Well I'm still using the client that was used for the Beta, although my game arrived today. Perhaps I should remove the downloaded client and install the release one?

    EDIT: I know about that bit. But no it just has the bar stuck there.

    I have the same issue when entering sol system. CPU is 100% and I don't have a dualcore CPU.

    V-sync doesn't resolve anything. Still stuck at loading ...

    My load bar goes to the end in Sol system as well then nothing happens, i've been stuck at this for a day and a half now it seems. Also my new character won't load up either now it seems.

    It might be because I need to activate the retail 30 day trial code on the back of my manual although my account says I have til April or something, not sure if it had that before or after I activated the "DS9 Uniform" which shows up as STO Gold.

    It has nothing to do with your account. I have a lifetime subscription and everything is activated. It is a technical issue.

    Do you have a dualcore cpu ?

    No. I mean I know my computer is laggier than others but I never had this issue in OB.

    EDIT: Okay I installed the retail copy and it was set to low settings and I left it for a bit and returned and I am now on Earth Spacedock.

    After I changed the settings and went to exit Earth Spacedock it did the freezing on Sol System loading screen, so I reinstalled it but it's still doing it. Cryptic please fix this.
