    It seems that Tribbles have gotten into the network hardware at our data center, and all Cryptic games and services are affected. We have Engineers on site who are working to.. well... remove the Tribbles ;) Thanks for your patience.

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    The first few times this week that this happened I would and did have no issue accepting Cryptics apology Brandon. However this has just become asinine. I feel that it is time for cryptic to show how sorry they are for not providing a stable experiance.

    As a paying member of STO and been playing since Season 3, I only have the following to say.



    GET NEVERWINTER OFF OUR FREAKING SERVER!!!


    Within the past two weeks the server for Cryptic games has been down for 3+ times due to the game and the amount of players logging in for the Open Beta. And if you don't think this will continue after the release of LoR, you are WRONG. As shown with the Anniversary event, your servers are unable to cope with the large amount of players that usually login for the special events. Adding in another game only compounds the problem.

    With the way I see it, you have two choices, either increase the # of servers you are currently operating to handle double (even, *gasp* Triple) the NORMAL number of players or starting losing money because people are fed up with the outages/massive lag times/random disconnects for no reason/or various other reasons.

    Regain your patience by doing something else, ffs. There are plenty of other games out there, there's a ton of stuff you could be doing besides getting cranky every time this happens.

    Server administration should take Scotty's advice:

    Okay, so the dev's knew that many people were waiting for Tribble test weedend to come. So, why the heck did they not prepare better and have extra servers waiting and ready for the mass of players that are playing on it this weekend? That to me is just ridiculous that you would only allow so many players on at a time. You advertisered all about playing a romulon and reman; so why did you not have yourself better prepared? I had over a 45min wait to get on to the server and then after an hour of playing, the server crashed and now I can not even get online. It appears that the servers have all went down for most all of cryptics games. Again this brings up the question as to why crypritc and perfect world were not better prepared after all there advertising they put out there about playing the new characters. They should have realized that this weekend was going to put a big pull on there servers and had more servers and things prepared. I am very disappointed and disheartened to continually see that cryptic and perfect world still after so many times of fixing things that they have not figured out what they need to do. Very disappointed in this weekend testing, very disappointed.

    For some reason I can't get onto STO today. I'm trying to get into the launcher, but all I get is a window saying: 'Trying to update the launcher. Please be patient. Tried connecting 2 times.' Each time it's done this, it's given me a connection error, save for one point where the launcher's window opened but the screen itself was white. Does anyone have any clue what's happening here? And if so, how can I get around this issue?

    How long has it been down this time?

    I am truly amazed by the level of incompetence Cryptic displays regarding their server maintenance.

    I've come back from a hiatus, and now trying to get back into the game to reaquire the controls and stuff for LoR.



    However, it seems all of the fleet events I've entered today it's been down to just me, or another person several times. I was pleasantly surprised to see the fleet mark rate has been tremendously increased (:D thanks!)

    All was going well.

    Untill...


    Why the f*** is everyone bailing all of a sudden?! I had one game where people predicted what the oppenent was going to be, and when it wasn't the Borg, three of them left!?! leaving me and some poor Lt.Commander fending for ourselves. Most other times people just left un-announced.


    I don't understand, surely these people now miss out on the marks, and get themselves a leavers penalty? Hell, this is worse than AFK'rs because atleast AFK'rs are targets.

    At first i thought it was because of 'noob teams' but one time i joined, everyone was in capable ships (I was in a dred, but optimized for support and i wasn't using rainbow beams or anything like that)


    Is this happening to anyone else or have i just had a really unlucky day?

    It looks like the mod accidentally closed the wrong thread. Chill out, it'll be reopened. There was NO NEED to make this thread.

    QQ some more somewhere else, preferably offline :P

    I'm guessing there are frantic phonecalls to PWE HQ asking for Cryptic to take the servers down for 24 hours to fix these problems.... Computer says 'No.'....

    Seems like a mod closed one of the joined threads, thus closing all of the merged ones. Silly thing to do when the Community is PO'ed about the Downtime of the servers.

    Poking the fire?
