    Yeah I'm getting "Login failed for an unknown reason" after attempting to retrieve the character list.

    I'm sad

    You expect the game to run perfectly just a few hours after an entire expansion dropped? This has happened to every MMO ever. You're acting childish.

    And what of the server problems we had in the last few weeks, before LoR? :rolleyes:

    Let's see if they beat the usual par of page 50 in a thread before fixing an issue with the new expansion.

    Cryptic never stress tests. all their money from lockboxes goes into buying private jets for PWE

    I swear you're not far off from the truth. It's clear they're making money off ftp with all the zen being purchased (I know I for one have spent $500 on this game or more over the past 5 mos alone(, but it's also clear that their efforts are no different today than what they were when they launched this game, which is very very very poor when it comes to doing stupid things and having little to no common sense when making choices.

    WTF........ this is now pissing me off. For those that are going to say "why dont you QQ some more" well you can take a hike. This is not like a patch to fix something, this is a patch that you have know about for a LONG LONG Time. This loading TRIBBLE you should have know about. The amount of people that are playing again you should have know cause its new stuff and people wanted to look at it. But now after 3 and 1/2 hours of patching i log in and i am ready and..........


    LOGIN FAILED FOR SOME REASON



    WTF, this is TRIBBLE.

    I'm having same problem ? I got in to run about ten feet and looked at the ground on qonos and i looked like super fast shadows moving but coldnt see anything is this invisible dudt or some ugly glitch then i looked at myself and look skinny and traller same settings yes i made sure, i was looking at all this glamorous junk you put into game and its not helping gameplay zip nada nothing ??? why look good or waste time making it look different bwhen nothing was wrong with looks before ?? gameplay was the PROBLEM not Glamour dinks ?? we need fixes not more ugly junk in our way , so then i tried to beam up to ship , crash crash crash crasah ....... uuuuhhhhgggg !!!!

    Login failed for unknown reason.

    Would you be surprised if I said I am not surprised?

    Got the same problem, I'm not sweating over it though. It'll be resolved when it is resolved.

    People need to take a chill pill. It's launch day for a major expansion.

    On another note, patching for me was swift as hell.

    Misery loves company. I'm looking at the same issue.

    Don't believe the lies in this forum. I am NOT an ARC user. I play STO on Steam or not at all.

    Let me ask you this, does it come up with the message saying it's getting your character list, and then sits there for a few seconds longer than it should, and then get the failed login error?
    if so, I'm getting the same damn thing, and I think it's the game timing out.

    Hi Captains! We're investigating the error some players are reporting at the login screen.

    Somebody wake me up when the bulls**t finally ends!

    3 hours to complete the last 3% of the patch...
    Now I'm stuck with "Login failed for an unknown reason".
    Seriously.
    What the hell?

    I've been trying to play since I finished work this evening.
    It's now time for me to head to sleep so that I can go to work in the morning.
    I've still not got past the login screen.

    Having this issue as well. Probably should expect login queues later tonight, but hopefully they get this fixed soon. I was expecting a lot of people to come back to the game for the Romulans anyway. I know I did.

    I'm getting the same. It says its retrieving the character list and then says it can't log in.
    Ok now I'm logged in. Its showing Im in que because the servers are full. Awesome! LOL
    I'm getting "invalid username or password" even though they're the same as my forum login and it's obviously working...

    The 1200 people behind me in queue right now probably wont miss you. :D

    I don't know if anyone else is having this issue, but I keep getting booted at the "Loading characters stage"

    It says it failed for unknown reasons. I think the reason is that Cryptic didn't stress test enough...

    Same thing happening to me, I bet it's all the people logging in for the new update.

    Nuts, I'm among those afflicted as well.

    On the plus side, I can report that the new UI on the login screen looks great! :P
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    just because you downloaded on steam does not mean it due to it being on steam yes steam will reconize that your playing it while logged into steam but the game has it own launcher and will there fore every one might have this issue even though there not on steam so this is not a local issue because you are on steam, I finally got patched but now am getting log in failed and have relogged several time with no success
