Actually, as was posted in another thread, if you're in Europe there seems to be a Congentco pathing issue happening somewhere between Europe and Cryptic.
STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.
I am new to the game. I typed in my account name and password, if i get farther before anyone helps I'll let you know. Following my ability to log in threw the first step. i find myself at an impasse. Do i have an existing Cryptic account. I do not have an existing account, with previously stated group, with my options yes or no... i chose no... obviously... i am not a lair.... Unlike the buttons Yes and No, they are not buttons; Yes and No are transparent with the terms and agreements logo behind them, when i click no i am directed to the terms page. WTF i don't understand.
I have tired reinstalling, excluding and switching off firewall, restarting computer, talking to trek support...hehe..... perusing threw forms and FAQ, and most other forms of unplugging my router. Help
It took me two days to get everything done.
Changed-link Cryptic account to perfectworld, installing the game, 4 times again and again, i did not wanted to work.
Today i found what i needed by change, installed windows explorer8 and the last flash player.
Loged in true windows explorer8, and now everything seems to work, did not lost any ships or the mony (thats a relief), thats now zen mony.
What went first wrong, my standard browser is google chroom, so that do not work at all and it took me two days frustration to figure that one out.
So my advice for the download page, tel them to use the latest windows browser explorer and the latest flash player for windows explorer...then they all wil do fine.
Wait.. WHAT The...?? So i cant log on because of maintenance?> is that the main reason why?? or password is wrong? cant be! o.o i even sent recovery to my email, but nothing showed up. sigh.. Whyyyyyyyy:mad::mad::mad::

if you think thats bad look at your account 0 days subbed and account inactive.Really i'm a lfe sub 1000 day vet from beta pluss multiple pre-orders and digital deluxe and collectos but i have 0 days and inactive account better fix it cryptic not happy!
Must be because of maintenance. They need to figure out a way of notifying players when they try to log on, instead of leaving us to think something bad happened.
This sounds grim, but I'm glad it's not just me who's having authentication problems - just installed on my laptop and thought there was an issue there.
I get the "Unable to authenticate:" message when trying to log in. I know they started maintenance roughly 6 hours ago but what reason what it still be down for if it's saying the server status is up?
The launcher says it is not able to authenticate. What happened?
I think the server is down!
Like I said, maybe it's just server maintenance, and Cryptic hasn't bothered to post anything about it.
This happened back in december when their servers were TRIBBLE, and cryptic locked a bunch of people out of their accounts til they finished upgrading security, and all these players had to reset their pass. Probably not the same situation where they'll require validation, but we're still probably locked out for maintenance.
Thanks for letting us all know, crpytic. You're the greatest.
NOT.
what I would like to know is why the STO site says that my account is inactive when its been paid for up to the 25th of this month when I renew it and I'm 12 days from my 1000 day vet reward, maybe it has something to do with the auth servers being down?:eek:
Yea, same. Was fine before the patch, now can't log in. Can't really be more specific other than 'Unable to Authenticate'. Not a problem at my end as everything else works fine.
This will probably last for about 2 hours, from noon, my time in California. Guess I have to do something else. Like get ready for work, or clean my bike from today's ride.

As for me I guess I'll actually show up for my PC Hardware class today.
Weird thing is, I logged in after the patch just fine. I did some dailies with two of my characters, but when I tried tolog in for the third one, then I got "unable to authenticate". Guess I'm gonna have to find something productive to do

Thanks for the heads up though.
