I think the Dev's are playing alone now, not realizing that our normal gameplay is affected :rolleyes:
Now that would be funny. As they start running through the game, one of the developers stops and says, "Guys? Did someone forget to plug in the severs? Where did all the people go?"
"Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them." -Thomas Marrone
omg people you all know that there is always problems when a patch come out. it is just a fact of life. get over it and stop your whining. they will get it fixed
and it will be fun .
Servers down after a new Season is patched. It's to be expected, even if it's frustrating.
Just based on past Seasons upon their introduction, the crystal ball says we can expect server troubles and numerous short-notice maintenance periods in the next few weeks.

Well, I'm queued as player 6678 out of over 10,000! I rose 3 positions in ten minutesl then the server disconnected me. Someone really, really, screwed up. Or worse: it's working as intended.
managed to get in long enough to play one of the new pve instances, must say i really enjoyed it, am looking forward to checking everything out once the smoke clears from the server and the hampsters are replaced, this looks like its going to be alote of fun.
woot i got logged in and selected a toon just to be told i have a duplicate log in and got booted back out ...
second attempt i got a toon selected and it says it is loading .. but it is loading Sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow 2 min's and i got 10%

I would be very mad. Since I have paid over a hundred dollars into c-points (zen), within only a few months, I would have expected to have overcome this particular obstacle. I feel everyone's pain.

tribbles...cryptic uses tribbles not hamsters, with purr conversion piezoelectrics. much more advanced than the ancient hamster wheels...though with about the same reliability unfortunately...progress isn't always improvement

My advice: Avoid map transitions and using replicators/vendors whenever possible -- these seem to have the most lag at the moment and most likely to occur immediately before a disconnect.
noooooo! i just seen the closed sign, darn it all! Q! what sort of trickery is this! explain yourself!
Worf: Captian, we're being hailed
Picard: On Screen
???: We are PWE, you will terminate connectivity and discontinue login attempts, your service and your C-Points will be assimilated, resistance is futile...
Picard: Worf raise shields!
Worf: Raising shields!
(explosion and ship shaking)
Worf: Forward shields down to 74% Captain!
Picard: Number One fire all phasers and ready Tricobalt torpedos, full spread on my mark!
Worf: Shields at 42%, we can't take much more of this captain!
PWE: you will C-Points will be assimilated, resi...
Picard: cut all communications!
Crusher: yes captain
Picard: Fire!
Riker: Firing Tricobalt torpedos, full spread!
Worf: Shields at 14%, Brace for Impact!
Picard: all hands Brace for impact!
(15 seconds later)
Worf: Captain, something's not right.
Crusher: Wait, i sense something, permission to open communications Captain.
Picard: permission granted, on screen
PWE: we are sorry but the servers are full at the moment, you have been placed in cue, you are number 3964 of 10526, when this message is done, we will proceed to attack your vessel...
Picard: let's get out now while we are in one piece, Data, warp 9.5
Data: yes Captain

Now it's saying I can't login with an existing character?
TRIBBLE it, this isn't worth repeated attempt, I'll check back in a few hours and see if it's back up, until then I'm not buying anything that says it's back.
I would be ok with queues, but with a queue, i expect to be able to get into the queue and sit and wait in it until i get in without getting disconnected. I also expect that once I do get through the queue, to not get get disconnected in a matter of seconds just to have to try to queue again.

You really expect that to work? Cute.
Its full potential of not working?

This was posted earlier.. although for some reason I still can't get in, I guess it's server spam.

It will be later, but for now the more accurate statement would be:
Better later than never, or what they say...
