Don't presume to to speak for me, a paying customer. I'm okay, patient and prepared to wait. This is nothing new, and to be frank the grief currently being given on this thead is no surprise. After 10 years of MMORPGing, this should kind of hitch with a new expansion especially on a popular f2p should NOT be a surprise, chill.
Huh, login issues? Oh well; I'm surprised it took this long, really. At least I got my new Romulan to level 9. I suppose I'll go watch Deep Space 9 and get something to eat in the meantime!
I've been trying to get in for the past hour since patching completed, but see the same issue as everyone else...retrieving list of characters then unable to login for unknown reason.
I logged in last night to delete one of my few non-lvl-65 characters to ensure I had a slot open for Romulat today (bye bye Fathead, lvl 11 Alien cruiser captain)...so I know my account is working fine as of last night.
I notice the forum page says "some" users are having this problem. Wonder what % "some" is..they make it sound like a few users but maybe its 75%?
Are servers all full...do I need to wait for someone to crash out before one of the thousand people in waiting who times login just right can get in?
I wonder how long this will take... Dust 514 looks good atm, but I'd really rather be taking down some Borg. Same issue though, unable to login for an unknown reason.
Interestingly, i did not have the slow downloading speeds, it only took about 30 minutes with my godlike NBN internet while i was watching a delver video, and then once i got in i got to the characters and then...''unable to login for unknown reason'' after about 3 tries, i gave up, but once i closed the game i noticed my firewall was blocking some things of STO, so i unblocked it, started it up again, entered my stuff, same thing happened, tried 3 times again, same thing.
I wonder since this issue has occurred I seen no actual constructive criticism is posted I will assume this is noting but whiners and complainers.
Its a game y'all .. get a grip it is not the end of the world. So you are inconvenienced for a issue that was a oversight somewhere .. I tell you what the sun will still rise tomorrow and I will still play STO and for those who don't come back , Your bad
Dude don't give me that holier than thou attitude, it just makes you sound like a douche, I busted my TRIBBLE at work today and I want to relax by blowing up borg and klingons when I log in, not see these "failed to login for unknown reasons" messages.
We're continuing to investigate this error -- I've added it to the announcement at the top of the forums, and it's our top priority to fix all of the items on that list ASAP. We have our top engineers on it.
Cheers,
Brandon =/\=
Thanks Brandon but LOL. this is ALL i could think of when I read this..
What annoys me the most, is they no this will happen so why not fix it before it does, buy new servers, or get extra, what ever it takes. I mean come on. Every dam update this BS happens. Come on Cyrptic, get ur act together and sort it once and for all so we have minimal issues. It doesnt matter if ur F2P or LTS (as i am) we should be able to play the game we all want to play
Legacy of Romulus is too epic for Internet to handle. lol :P
More the internet is telling us these guys are unfit to run a fast food joint let alone a MMORPG when you cleary had time to shore up stuff before launch.

On the 20th try I got in, it took 15s+ me to pick a different character. When I started to load, I got to 94.14 and then server not responding, timed out.. now back to unknown reason

If I were a gambling man, and I am, I would say that it is a load balancing issue and that the login server is effectively "playing it safe" by limiting logins. Only instead of creating login queues it seems to have just blocked whole groups of people from logging in altogether.
I guess I can wait patiently, I will just watch the screen and see if I can see my new home circling past on the planet surface.... Wait!!!.... Oh nope... just another empty landmass...
and here i was going to spend money on my new rommy toon, cant even get into the game to do it, wonder how much money they are loosing out on today with this servers "unknown reason" problem, cmon cryptic, spend some of those dollars on a server that works........:mad:
See I doubt they are lose much if any money on this issue, as most players will simply spend tomorrow what they were going to spend today.
HOWEVER, that being said I do not doubt their engineer's dedication to fixing this game asap. Mostly because the interaction they have with the community as well as the fact that it scores them points on the real life reputation system. :P
We have tried everything, the smell is so bad that ted, the guy that runs the ships computer core has passed out and things are going down hill. Tried to send a rescue party in after ted, they were never heard from again. I have given the order to abandon ship and had the captain summarily executed for gross violation of health and safety legislation.

Having already had the pleasure of logging in for over an hour tonight, I can say in all honesty that there are not that many bugs.
Sig by my better half.

Got dumped from the server trying to turn in a mission, and now can't log in.
Add me to the list.
Now, if only that might happen... :rolleyes:
I was actually quite surprised that I was able to log in at all today.

Those same hamsters are also the ones investigating the cause of the login failures.
Heh.
That's the word for today's release.
FAIL
Solution is everyone continue to try to log in until it crashes, we need to have as many as possible to log out as we can

Completed Starbase, Embassy, Mine, Spire and No Win Scenario
Nothing to do anymore.
