I tried using Arc and the old STO Launcher with the same results...
Unable to authenticate. Connection to the account server timed out.
Same issue. At about 11:30pm PST Jan. 22, I got disconnected a second time from the game. I chose to exit the game and it proceeded to download a 3,113MB sized patch before closing. Now all I'm getting is this "unable to authenticate" error. The game launcher seems as though it's not even trying to connect and the server status dot is green and indicates the server is up.
It's frustrating if it's showing up green. They should take it down and fix the problem surely someone has said something. I'm hoping there up soon or later so close to getting VA and I was thinking of getting a ship with ZEN. There just losing money.
Right now I can't even get that far. Launcher times out while trying to connect to the patch server. 23 attempts and then "naaah". Also the attempts are really close together, which means it only really tries for like 40 seconds. Surely if the server is busy it needs to try for a bit longer than that?

even if its starts, its just unplayable with these massive continuous laggings spiced up with 10 second latencies
