I logged in and received the patch, but cannot get into the game or retreive my character list. A message pops up that login failed for an unknown reason.
Nothing to do with the patch. Its down to shoddy hardware which cant handle the load.
If there few players then adding a new server should more than cover the player load. If there are many many players, then adding a new server is practically required to handle the server load. Either way, adding a new server is a good idea.

Ok so I just finished the patch for today (5/21/13) however, now that it is finished patching, the game locks up at the Legacy of Romulus Loading screen. Is there anyone else having this issue, or know of a way to fix it?
Q: I thought that you could unlock the Reman playable species in-game?
A: Yes, this is accurate. From the Legacy of Romulus Ask Cryptic: "Reman species are an account unlocked reward that will be added to the New Romulus Reputation or available for purchase." The Reman playable species can be purchased via the Legacy Pack or in the C-Store once Legacy of Romulus launches on 5/21.
Bought Legacy pack .. the above is INaccurate as of launch.
Remans are not an option for character creation.
Edit
After creating a character and getting my pack for the 2nd character, now it is working.
Instead of making smart *** comments...why not offer up an idea on how one could fix the problem, but I guess trolling is so much more fun....save your energy for trolling the Dev.'s as they clearly have dropped the ball yet again.
Anyhow I for one don't have "Shoddy" hardware to contend with so I would like a mature, intelligent reason for the log in issues.
I believe he was specifically referring to Cryptic having servers that can't handle the load, rather than any issues with the player's computers.

Funny how I was laughing with my fleet last night that there would be issues....glad that as a LTM & Legacy Pack owner I wasn't proven wrong.....wtg PWE/Cryptic...
I hope you plan on offering a better product if you plan on having people spend hard earned money on your game.....the game is quickly becoming "Star Trek Offline"....I think it's about time you get your heads into the game & really fix your issues...
Instead of always saying sorry for your mistakes...why not take steps in assuring that they don't happen in the first place.
And still 4hrs almost after servers came back online no posted solution for log in issues nor a mention that you're working on it...again wtg Dev.'s !!!
Lol kid, grow up. If you think I'm a troll, you need to look in the mirror.
I'm also a Lifetime subscsriber and pre-purchased LoR, so dont try throwing that around in peoples face. You are not the only one who is being crippled even though you should have priority login access...
I was refering to the servers which clearly can not handle the player load.
It took me an hour to get online, about 6 minutes of which was downloading the patch.
PWE need to allow Cryptic to increase both the servers capability and the bandwidth for their games.
Well, the prepatch apparently worked out for me. Took a few minutes for it to verify the stuff I already had, downloaded an additional 350 Mb or so, and launched just fine! Now stuck with an overloaded login server.

At last time when many players wanted log in we had waiting list. Why not now Cryplik? I am happy that for such "services" I did not pay a cent.:(:confused:
Wouldnt it make sense to bring down the server until they discover, and fix the issue. All I'm doing now is chatting on TS with all the other individuals waiting to get this problem of logging in fixed.

They should just change the message to "You ain't f***in' playin' today, TRIBBLE. Go away."
Well, at least we know Cryptic's trying to do things better. Now they've arranged things so they can much more efficiently TRIBBLE off WAY more people at once. And at least now we can know how many other people are pissed off along with us at the same time. It takes all the guesswork out of it.

So with this patch they switched over to new servers, or are you saying that they have always been on P.O.S. servers?

I cannot still login though, due to the "login failed for unknown reason" error.
It's late for me, I'll go to bed, see you in game tomorrow!

And they even cut us off before we could reach 2000 posts. I call it cheating. Oh well, it was a good run. Very entertaining.
