They may not know exactly what has gone wrong. That does happen now and then.
So the game is down for a few hours, its a pain yes, but these things happen. At least its not as often as it used to be.
As people, experts in the field have stated here, if they screwed up this bad at their job they'd be fired. someone need's to get the matches out and start firing people.
If they dont know what is wrong then their IT people arent smart enough.

yeah lucky you get trek on Netflix there we don't here in the UK
No we dont, but there is a website that has all the episodes from all the tv series available. I suppose you just need to know where to look Hopefully you'll find it.
i bet when you call cryptic,they put you in the wait...and you have to hear justin bieber all the time...or my little ponie.....or dora.....where is the server?
We're working to bring up the server as soon as possible. As I've mentioned previously, Season 7 is not launching today and the reason for extended downtime is technical difficulties. All Cryptic games (STO and CO) and services (subscription and account management) are affected. We're still on track for the ETA in the latest update (2pm PDT - 1 hour and 52 minutes from this post) -- it may change, it may not, but if it does, I will communicate it to you.
You should be able to start patching now, but you won't be able to actually get to the character select screen.
Again, thanks for your patience Once we are up, I've got a few exciting announcements/ frontpage news posts to make over the course of the afternoon.
Well the patch just came through so I guess the servers will be up shortly

Hey guys here is what you do... roll it back, correct the "technical difficulty" on a test server, then roll the patch out when it is stable and everyone in Europe and US is not screaming at you to get online! :mad::eek::(:confused:

If they fire the whole team- then a new team with no knowledge of the game or content will come in further stalling new patches and content. which as we all know would induce more whining...
Unfortunately its a lose lose situation.

Scotty always said, whatever time you think it will take to fix a problem, double it and make everyone think you can work miracles when you fix it ahead of schedule
CORRECTION Scotty multiplyed by a factor of 4 not doubling :rolleyes:
we don't want a repeat of the Metin 2 debacle, lol

Guys its better to do the job right and get the server working at optimal performance. Even if it takes a lot of time. After all, some hours without STO are not going to kill us. But, personally, i expect some type of in-game mail containing level-appropriate Very-Rare items as a form of apology.

I'm sure they did'nt want to take it offline unless they absolutely had to. Just bugs me when they have to take it down again for their 'regular' maintenance run later.
what really bugs me is that in a couple days they will do an unscheduled maintenance to fix an issue this scheduled cluster freak... er, I mean maintenance will undoubtedly cause.

This is all a smokescreen to distract us from the real news isn't it?

So the first delay was them realising something was broken then going looking for the backup tapes.
Second delay means there's something wrong with the backup. Rats nesting in them maybe if they have rats wherever Cryptic is.
Or possibly mountain lions - that's it. Mountain lions nesting in the backup tapes.
This could take a while
Well maimenance is normally 2 hours, so... :P
