    It was pretty flawless for me yesterday ... Today? The launcher can't even ping the account server so I can't even get into the game that way.

    If I run the game executable it can't contact the account server at all.

    So basically, I'm without a paddle.

    Where abouts are you in the world? :P

    You're gonna love me...

    Playing in France on a crappy 3G connection that is throttled down to stone-age levels for most of the monthly subscription and I have found STO playability and loading times to be fantastic, something I cannot say about CO.

    One of this games more redeeming qualities I thought?....

    When you are in the launcher - go to options at the top, and a little box pops up and you can select the eu proxy - and then all your stroubles should end.

    I'm in the UK, and whenever I have connected I have had no problems. Usually ping and around 180ms with very little rubberbanding which is pretty good considering.

    I haven't tried playing this weekend though as I hadn't the time but I believe there has been issues and whatnot.

    Yep, seems I had it on EU proxy all along. I'll try doing a safe load instead of a fast load.

    See if that has any effect. If not. *shrugs*

    Move along time.

    I live out in the woods in middle england ( no joke ) and have a stone age 1.4mb line on a good day and apart from some rubber banding when the servers about to melt i have no probs.

    Biggest issue for me was downloading the game so far for beta, took me 16hrs that :confused:

    So im kinda dreading the 45 day content patch lol. :eek:

    Playing in the UK here. I only get the very occasional rubberbanding. But it's VERY easy to cope with since it's not very much. Even Fleet Actions run fine.

    Playing from France on a decent connection. i wouldn't call it great but i had to face queue once since the head start and no disconnects just crashes for which my ATI card is responsible. A little lag every now and then but nothing game breaking.

    The game only seems to be using about 10KB/s (combined up/down) - so the bandwidth shouldn't be an issue for anyone, only the latency :)

    In space, in any system or sector I have great responce; its only when I do a ground mission I encounter (non-graphic) lag. However, the ground lag does seem to be improving; this last server-optimization today has practically halfed my combat lag on the ground maps, which makes me happy :)

    My first MMO as i thought my connection was pretty rubbish. However, ive had a pretty good connection so far in STO.

    Ive been kicked out a few times, dont know why, but on the whole ive been able to log back in to where i was before, even joined back in the fighting if i was at the time.

    Also had a 'BIG' Fleet action today and had absolutely no issues, no lag at all.

    Ive been very lucky, i hope it lasts, touch wood.

    South of London in the sticks.
    ADSL
    2MB
    TalkTalk
    Getting about 135 ping when i checked
    Dont know what Proxy im on, never looked.
