Well after they fixed the launcher a other thing comes along Well done devs :mad: kicked out the game timeout then try to start it up again failed all i get is a white box now if your going to fix something do it right then a half TRIBBLE job soo tick off with them today
yep they did a half TRIBBLE job on the fix to shut people up for a while and now here comes the spam again if they fixed it right this would not happen lol
ok for one this game as ive seen so far hasnt any glitches in it , and i love to play this game
but today is
1/28/2013
and its way past the server maintenance time
well u could call that one number one
because let me say this ,, when the game decided not) to load right this morning i was so tired i decided to reinstall the game ,, ok well finally i got the game back going but ( now ) its lagging terribley , hmm so what is my first move u might say .. i change all the visual options back to basic and i load a big dig mission ,, so , , now whats the game say to me .
it says as soon as i load it in red words//letters that pretty much im being disconnected and im the only freakin one in it
wel not only have u put out an update that was entirely wrong or the wrong hippies testing it,,or my whole system has went bad ,, hmm i have been building comps now before the 95 came out , so building a comp to suit this is easy,, (( now heres where the (but)comes into play happens).
for one thing i did and have wasted the last year of my life playing bsg , if u must know battle star
now ,,even at most im not gona spend that much money on this cause i know how to turn a profite, but let me tell u this , there is one dude in my list that i call my main and on him i do take my time and i do whip the bootys , but even when im trying to load my main and nothng else will i get a error message ,, ,,
i want u to tell me something right now and right now is a good time if this is gona be some long term goal as to underminin the thoughts and freedoms of the players u need tell me now so i dont waste anymore of ur time or mine)
if not please try and fix the issues with the bugs before u put out the exe, file , please cause u might think its just a game ,,but to some its a real life
If the update is nearly a 1Gb and everyone is trying to download it or even just on-demand parts of it. Not surprising it has brought Cryptic's network to its knees.
Maybe future updates can be rolled out more incrementally?
Guess we wait till the demand drops and usable bandwidth returns.:(

Wow. Really slow transitions between zones, servers uncontactable, patching stalling. Still not right but at least we can connect with a little effort.
with that being said, its a good thing this game is free, cause I'd be pissed if I was paying for ****ty support like this.
they patch the game to fix one thing, and then break something else in the process. Happens damn near every patch cycle...
you've been at this like 4 years now cryptic, how long does it take to get your **** together and fix issues without breaking stuff?

First, I tried to log in with the link that worked yesterday. Of course I got the "failed to connect the the patch server" message. So I looked around and found the update. I loaded it and it ran the "new" patcher. When I logged in the window turned white as if pending an error message. I let it sit for a few minutes and it didn't change. I closed the window and tried to load it again. This time I got the "no connection" message again -- AFTER loading the update. My internet works fine (how else would I be posting this?).
It seems I'm not the only one having issues. My question is this -- why did they change the launcher in the first place? And all of a sudden? Yes, I know they do tell us things occasionally. But wouldn't it have made more sense to release the update BEFORE the changeover? Or included it in the last patch?
Seems to me they're trying to limit the number of people who can actually play. I'm not sure who those people are, given that I doubt our individual systems are to blame.
My Old Blog about things that could and should have been added when I wrote it. Not sure what I want to do with it now. I'll just keep it available now that most of it is outdated.
Well...I was able to load the patch and play the game for about two hours. I logged off, big mistake, now I can't get into the game.
The same problem reported earlier today is back. I hope our friends at STO are aware and are working on the issue. I know these problems can be difficult to resolve.

The team is investigating, but this does not seem to affect all players and may be regional. To help in the investigation, please run a tracert (instructions for this process here) pointing to launcher.startrekonline.com and copy/ paste your results in this thread if you're comfortable doing so and making sure you star out your local IP address.

Unfortunately the launcher refuses to load up, or...when I'm *lucky* enough to get the launcher screen it just times out and refuses to d/l the patch.

I leave the game for months, and come back to the same old "OUT OF COMMISSION FOR A FEW DAYS CAUSE WE BORKED THE PATCH"
You would think after attempting to run the game for so long they would work out deployment bugs.
