Not sure if this is the spot to post, let me know if I should move to a different topic forum.
Now that Season one has been updated, but game loads extremely slow.
I launch STO fine, I log in fine. Im at a location half way though a misison. When I click to continue the mission it tries to load, but after like 5 minutes of loading I get a time out error.
it keeps doing the same for me too its driving me crazy... some times i cant even get the game to fully open. when ever it goes to a load screen it norm boots me out.:eek:
I opened a ticket. Will see what happens. I bet if I go through and unistall the game, download the contect (hopefully it has been updated) maybe that would work. All the patching, caching may be causing issues not sure. I tried to enter a different system thinking that mabybe because the mission was in mid stride and then having the season one update caused the issue. When to a system I never have gone to, and same problem. This is very trustrating, especially since I dished out $365.00 for the game (game plus subscription). Hope they fix soon or tell me what to do.
On a completely different topic, how do I change my avatar and all? I mean I see where to edit it and use a custom avatar, but I should be able to get the standard one for a lifetime member right? Is there not a gallery for standard STO avatars that one can pick and use, plus extra ones depending on your status and or type of subscription? Same goes for title.
Yeah same problem here. When ever 'loading...' is on screen it is extremely slow and then it times out. Happens on both fed and kling toons. It started just now however and I had played with the new patch for few hours ok.
I too am experiencing issues entering into systems. The load time is much longer than normal. I can watch the progress bar move very slowly, but it is definitely not worth waiting for. I have yet to get booted out of the game, but that is probably because I closed the program before it could.

What should I check? Where should I go?
Many of the servers have gone blooey. There's nothing to do but to wait for Cryptic to find the problem and fix it.
I'll bet Cryptic is "taking the matter very seriously"
Regardless of which MMORPG this happens in (and it happens to pretty much all of them at one time or another, especially early after release), I love how the message boards fill up with people who are under the impression that
the programmers and server maintenance people are unaware of the problem
The programmers and server maintenance people do not understand how serious it is that the servers are down on a MMORPG
The programmers and server maintenance people are not working on the problem and will not start working on the problem until the boards are flooded with tantrums
Yes, it stinks that the game is essentially unplayable right now. Do try to keep things in perspective, though.
Again same problem... Cryptic gave us some great new content and now STO works like a staggering Drunk... All I can say is "SHAKA.... WHEN THE WALLS FELL"
Well hopefully that will be taken care of soon. I'm stuck loading into Alpha Centauri at the moment and no amount of loading will help. Oh well at least I have Champions to play.

Ive been having this same problem. only now i cant even login to the freaking server b/c its a piece of ****. everything was fine until the season 1 update then it all went down hill from there. i cant even get my moneys worth of game time in. so thank you cryptic
I was over at a friend's house, and saw these awful lag and map-loading issues while he was trying to show off his latest Cruiser, after just making Rear Admiral...
Now the server is down, and the posted ETA Uptime of 9:00 - 9:30 PST (Pacific Standard Time, 11:00 - 11:30 Central) has come and -loooong- gone...
And here I was hoping to get at least a good hour of STO before my 10-day Guest Pass finally runs out...
TIme for bed, and hope that the server is up in the morning...

Server timeout while in map-loading screen

I can't get into the game even without waiting 5 minutes, and when I do, I can't change maps.
I hope they fix the game before they release anything else that breaks it. The test server is for beta materials.
