as of today 4pm ish u.k. time when i try to start my game nothing happens past the 'patch' screen.

it sits saying version ST_1_20100327z.1

ive never had a problem before with the game or the launcher......some may find that non believable but its true.

Any ideas why its now TRIBBLE up?:mad:

    UPDATE

    after a 20 min wait it started

    now its stuck on the retrieving maps screen

    pfft other games i play dont TRIBBLE with me like this so im off to play them instead!

    If this login widespread problem persists my time in STO will be at an end.

    Nothing worse than patches that cause problems!

    UK ISPs are notorious for time-based throttling. Might want to run a nettest (http://filles.champions-online.com/nettest.exe) to see if any ports show up funny.

    That's a bit of a generalisation if I ever I saw one! Perhaps you meant SOME? Either way, these don't really come into effect unless you've been hammering the bandwidth, and even then - there should be enough speed to launch a game.

    I very much doubt this is a throttling problem. Firewall maybe. AV... perhaps.

    It's all four of the big four (BT, Virgin, Sky, Talktalk aka AOL), which accounts for most UK users and also get routinely panned by all the reviewers.

    Of course, nobody who had checked the reviews would ever use one of them. But most people just don't check.

    I also have this, the game hangs on the Patch screen.

    I have a 20meg line, unlimited download limit,
    I lost 3 days due to the -39 issue and now this lol.

    I'm starting to get a little mad at CP incompetence now.
