    @trekonlinegame: While the team is working to bring up all Cryptic services, we will conduct this week's #STO Holodeck maintenance to avoid Thurs. downtime.

    They should give us all a free lockbox ship for all the hassle they've caused with their unstable servers.

    Basically ever since Neverwinter started open beta STO servers have been very unreliable, so its pretty obvious we can expect more of this as Neverwinter moves forward into full release. :(

    And if that's the case (which it looks it is with all these fu*king disconnects and server craps), then my money will go elsewhere.

    REALLY getting sick of this.

    Spend the money and brace your infrastructure properly instead of using spit and ducktape.

    I can imaginate how bad it will be on time LOR will be released, i fear we will have server crash every 30 minutes if they dont do anything about it.

    If I where PW, I'd have been embarrassed by the first crash. Humiliated by the second. And just plain ashamed of myself by this one.

    Heres some inspiration for cryptic !!!
    For every hour the games are down, the responsible server admins are deductted what equals 500 Zen pr hour to be paied to the affected community.

    CRYPTIC CEO, will add another 500 to that for every 2 hours....

    THAT should keep the wheels turning .... moneysucking leeches -,-

    Never winter beta is also down because it shares a server with STO as it is owned by the same company.

    What makes you so sure it is on the same Server? I don't see hope this could be.

    The Star Trek Online? website is currently down for maintenance. Normal game play is not affected.

    Le site de Star Trek? est actuellement en cours de maintenance. Cela n'a pas d'effet sur le jeu.

    Die Star Trek?-Webseite ist momentan f?r Wartungsarbeiten offline. Der Spielablauf wird dadurch nicht beeintr?chtigt.


    ok they say this on the launcher, but it's still showing Red for the server down....hmmm yeah right Normal gameplay not affected!!

    Perhaps cryptic needs to buy there devs more pizza and beer on fridays.. All Los Gatos has is a double rainbow ice cream parlor and a ferrari dealer at the end of the street.. maybe buy their devs Ferraris and then maybe we would see better service..
    highly unlikely..

    Handsome Phaserguy is back DEAR GOD!!! he murdered T'TRIBBLE and put her body in the server room.

    I was hoping Sexy Romulan Lady would be the one to do her in, but if Handsome Phaser Guy wants to kill her and take back his rightful spot, I say good for him.

    All this down time is annoying, but hopefully it's allowing them to find all the bugs and issues they need to fix so that LOR is able to launch without any major issues.

    So im looking for a title and topic of the next episode of STOked Radio..... Any creative ideas for a title and topic?

    "Discovering the Real World"

    Since we can't play and have to go outside now.

    -Rule of Acquisition #113: Always have sex with the boss.
    -I am one of the many victims from the hijacked Caspian Division.
    I will not let the childish acts of a criminal ruin this game for me.
    -The actions of Cryptic, on the other hand......

    Error server is online, presumably not part of their main site then? Oh wait..

    And they don't pay to host in a server farm with UPS and generator back up, despite running a 24/7 online world that is their entire source of revenue? *Facepalm*

    Lets try not to fob people off with ****e rumours that are still no excuse.

    I'm telling you what I've heard, not necessarily what's true.

    Also, absent a look at their financials and server setup, I couldn't even begin to tell you what they do. I'm betting right now they're pouring money into other areas.

    Cryptic is not EA so... :rolleyes:

    No, if it were EA, they would tell us all to go to hell while counting the oodles of cash they raked in from the suckers.

    This from Twitter: They're going to do regular holodeck maintenance now to avoid bringing things down Thursday. I guess it's not a power outage . . .

    Wish this where twitter, we could make a hashtag like "startrekoffline" and get it trending to make the point that this is seriously uncool.

    Cryptic games themselves are not on the same server lol. They share a chat server and I think the log in/authentication server (maybe?) but that's about it. There's been plenty of times that one game has been down when the other was not. If I remember, Bflakes said that if all the games go down at once, it's a network issue.
