    must...not...get...so...irritated...i...quit


    seriously, roll back to pre S1, fix the root problem and repatch it already, how many days has it been? Every patch breaks something else, how long this gonna go on?

    Same here. This interminable loading is getting annoying.

    Based on an error message I got about waiting on server's address, they may have a network config problem.

    Hate the waiting. They should at least have the Chat window available during the load screens so we can all ***** about the wait!

    Ditto, same problem here too. Any load screen into a mission hangs till timeout. Bring her down, rollback, repatch, or something. Not much worth having it still up.

    I beg to differ, at some point late last night, early this morning there was a problem that cropped up before they patched, a few hours actually, which is prolly the real reason for said patch and they added things to it. They have patched the last 3 nights in a row, each one breaking something different than it fixed.

    Kind of my point with just go ahead and take it down. I think it would be far less frustrating to folks if it were taken down than to have to continually force end the client trying to play.
    We got a patch, it broke things, take down the server fix it with a rollback or whatever and bring it back up. I mean its not like it wasn't down for 5 hours this morning, stuff happens.

    Yeah, load screens are nuts today. I've been stuck at one long enough to basically give up, come and look for this thread on the forum, and reply, and it's still "loading".

    Then I guess Tribble is the only server we can actually plan on then?

    They should really put something on the front page. Server is up....but not really. Or something to that effect. I had a loadscreen that lasted over 5minutes at which point it kicked back to my log in screen. I was here for launch once already, think I'll skip a second go round.

    On the other hand, at least I didn't lose a bunch of lvls for pvp'ing. I got that going for me......

    Eventually it just logged me out. I was able to log back in just fine, and it put me back in Battle Group Omega. So I tried zoning to Gamma Orionis a second time, and it's stuck again.

    My VET REWARD suggestion is, that you listen to me.

    Make the game playable as such before you start changing things that are working and making useless additions like clothing. Concentrate more on making it stable, more accessable(not all of us play at the same time) and a tad less laggy from one map to the next. The more non-sense stuff you add without fixing the core, is only going to gain that as word of mouth for gamers, you will lose. I payed for a lifetime sub, so am taking a leap of faith that there is no way you can take a title like Star Trek and go all in with a resounding FAIL!!!! Nobody could be that stupid, or could they? You have generations of fans that would hop in here if it were something that is outstanding among MMOs, but for the mean time it is weak, especially the ground game, a real old time button masher that takes zero skill to master. Good luck, and get on with it already.

    20 mins and counting.

    30 mins and counting.

    This is pathetic, I am not saying you guys are not trying, but "for god's sake, Jim!" get with it already. I took my day off and made time to get on with my guildies and we are in TS chatting about giving up for a while At this time you have already received a lifetime sub payment and the cost of the deluxe out of me so there is nothing that would occur any differently if I and many like me were too leave or stay on through out this- period of adjustment? Not all of my guildies are lifers. After wasting a good part of my day on loading screens and reading many posts stating this is something that is persistant and seems to be just folding into the next patch over and over time and time again, I have come to the conclusion that I will be walking away for a while if and when my guildes go. There are many people that will just move on and not look back in good or bad either way and become lost in the next big MMO out there. You guys have the edge here! Do not waste it! In my opinion, you will continue to lose player-base via word of mouth and the all mighty haven of lolcats known as the net without gaining new players, till you guys can grow up and play with the big boys. We are feeling like the demographics on a stat chart and not your fan base.

    48 mins and stopped counting.

    Yeah, I give up. At first, I got the initial load screen from hell, but I killed the process, restarted the client and got in right away. No sooner than I tried to start an exploration mission than it went back to the Eternal Load Screen of Doom. I just killed the client again, but I think I'm done for the day. Based on what I've already read, it sounds like it's going to be like this all night and I just don't have time for that. I was hoping to take a brief break from school, but no such luck I guess.

    Cryptic, our game is effectively down. Please spare us the frustration and take it down so it can be fixed or rebooted.

    Thank you.

    Yeah, unless they are sitting on the verge of a solution with them up they should just call in the people who need to be called in, take the server down, and fix the problem. Or just roll back to before the last fleet uniform patch fix. The fleet uniforms are something that needs to get fixed. but it's tough to admire them when all we see is "Loading"
