We're aware that the servers are inaccessible at the moment and are investigating. Thanks for bearing with us!
We'll update this post with more info as soon as we have it.
Thanks again!
Update 1 (1:25AM PDT): We believe we may have identified the issue that has caused the server outage and are looking into a solution. Thanks for waiting!
Update 2 (1:37AM PDT): We are making excellent progress and are working to bring the servers back up as soon as we can. Thanks for your patience!
Update 3 (1:51AM PDT): We are going through the necessary steps to bring the shards online and ensure stability. Thanks for sticking with us!
Update 4 (2:14AM PDT): We're still working on making the shards available for everyone and are getting closer to having an ETA for you. Thanks!
Update 5 (2:43AM PDT): We're still working on making the servers available for everyone, and will share more details just as soon as we have them. Thanks!
It's peak time in Australia right now and all my friends and I are missing out. This is a BS joke seriously, some compensation is in order. I think an extra 500 Zen for lifers maybe.
AM in Brisbane.....and now have to talk to the wife....1000 zen for all I reckon....extra for those in my situation.....its not fun talkin Candy Crush.....:eek:

Better no update than that... and 1 single malt for me !
DAMNIT! Now I must open another bottle of merlot, and I'm in the PDT time zone. Breakfast should be very interesting.
Don't bother with Eve. Eve is a lost cause. It's full of grief-ers and trolls who are so well established there is no possibility of making it long enough to actually enjoy the game. There's no point in bashing your head against the pervasive mob mentality that seeks to eradicate anything that isn't a carbon copy of itself. Seriously, those people need to remember that it is just a game after all.
If you're looking for f2p games to check out, try looking through what steam steampowered.com) has to offer. But seriously, forget about even checking out Eve, it really is a lost cause. That steep "learning curve" that has been referred to as the hallmark of the game isn't a learning curve at all, it's a solid brick wall build by the people who play the game as though their life the depended on it and if you're not already one of them, you never will be.
oh c'mon everyone. STO has given us players more than any other online game. (Which is why I voted for STO as the best online game).
I mean, have you seen the prices on Champions Online?
It's ridiculous . And the exchange system on STO, as well, allows for zen and dil exchange alot easier than other games systems.
Now we got the new STO world arriving on the 21st, with playable Romulans!
My point is, despite all the faults in the game, I have to say that STO still has a greater amount of Good things than bad.
Let it go offline as it has had to at the moment, for as long as it needs to, at least it gets things fixed somewhat then.
I appreciate all STO has done, all the hard work, and true fans will remain and stick with it no matter what.
I say, God Bless you all, all those whom work for STO and all the players whom play as well.
I understand that the star trek universe is perhaps, a real universe in most of our minds eyes, and this , is completely understood. So I can understand the anger or frustration, when it goes offline, yet try to be understanding, after all, they did bring the universe to You, surely that's worth some patience and gratitude?
I think so.
God bless STO, and Live long and prosper everyone.
You're one of their workers, aren't you? Given that we had 3 hr maintenance the day before yesterday(?) , the server crashed yesterday for 5 hrs and now it's down again for, what 2 hrs so far? I think we're entitled to be a little annoyed.

OK Cryptic...you have 1 hour to get this game working right...or i will pull all my financial support from this game and spend it elsewhere (might want to check how much i spend per month lol) .....this is 2 days in a row that you have killed your servers....i'm an IT tech...this is unacceptable, and your your player base is getting tired of it....get a clue already......hmmm. sigh...ok.. i'll take a deep beath now....pant pant pant.....ok...better now....but dang....get it fixed lol
patience , friend, I suggest you read what I just posted here:

This is pretty incorrect, you just need to link up with a good Corporation. If you see a Goonswarm affiliate around, just give them a message asking to join. There will be an application fee, of course, but they'll guide you through the process and you'll be joining in huge space battles with paid-for, insured ships in no time.

Indeed, we had to postpone a round of our fleet PVP Tornament which had taken weeks of planning to get a schedule right. Now we have to work around when people are available too. I think these people need to remember that not everyone gets to play 24/7 and this could be the only time they get to play (well used to be anyway).

Ask your self guys what than...
From a interview with the Cryptic CEO Jack Emmert
March 28, 2013
[...]
One thing both Cryptic and Perfect World have been successful with is free-to-play. I asked Emmert how he felt about the free-to-play market, and he said, ?The amazing thing about free-to-play is that it reaches an industry. If you were a gaming person, it seemed like everyone was talking about City of Heroes, and everyone played it. At our peak, we had 180,000 subscribers. But with free-to-play, I?m attracting a far wider audience. I?m a little nervous about Neverwinter, to be honest. I?m thinking about ordering more servers.?
EDIT: Also, would you rather they fix the problem or come here to tell you why it isn't working?
I would rather they have someone to do customer support for issues like these to give customers information. It doesnt take an IT engineer to get a few details like an eta on repairs and they do not have to actualy be one of the people working on the repairs.
Also most game companies, the developers are not the ones doing the IT work and the customer service reps dont do the IT or development. just like where you work everyone has a position and a job to do.

LOL, I wish i was, I've got alot of great idea's I would luv to add to STO.
I would bring out a playable Borg species, where you start off as a borg queen or king, and begin with a small ship, and of course you would be trying to assimilate other species during episodes.
That's what I would like to see happen. But sadly I am not one of their workers.

which seems odd (there are a LOT more of us than the NW crowd)

I think there are enough people who have an eye on the thread in the NW forum
Not really, NW is their new baby, we're the second, or maybe third, favourite, the one that people accidentally shut the door on.

So far they've managed to do this to themselves repeatedly without "help"
I would rather they have someone to do customer support for issues like these to give customers information. It doesnt take an IT engineer to get a few details like an eta on repairs and they do not have to actualy be one of the people working on the repairs.
