    I got on for a few then locked up in-game. Closed the game out and the launcher's trying to patch a new version.

    Fingers crossed that this takes care of the issues for all of us.

    We all do wish you the best, however, until the issue is addressed none of us can expect to be able to log in and fully enjoy the game without any issues. For most, getting past the launcher would be something. The fact you have done that is impressive. I just hope this is something we can do very soon as wel.

    as of this posting, for the current login into the game: 30 minutes for launcher to load, 5 minute for the engage to pop up, 5 minutes for the character selection screen to open, then disconnect. then relogin and 2 minutes from char select to actual game. then hit with a roughly 210 second Server Not Responding, 3 seconds free, 10 second SNR, 30 sec free, 20 sec SNR, 3 sec free, and now a 70+sec SNR

    Oh, and Chat is offline

    Well, if the Launcher re-started and is patching, it just means they've enabled pre-patching for the upcoming Season 10 update release. The Launcher issues ALL Cryptic games are occasionally experiencing (where you just get a blank/black Launcher window with "Loading Please Wait") doesn't have anything to do with the actual Champions Online/Star Trek Online/Neverwinter server/client code as you're not even getting to the point where the game client is actually launching itself.

    Given that they just launched Neverwinter for the XBox console; I am starting to wonder if the Cryptic Patch Servers occasionally get into a state where they are unable to identify what type of device you're connecting with (IE an XBox console or a PC); and as a result, don't know how to further proceed and as a result just hang.

    Some of the tracerts show an xbox patch server, good theory.

    I am trying the Steam download now, it seems to be pulling the patches ok off the servers.

    Crypt,

    Do you have a web link for Steam? I see a lot of listings, which one are you referring to?

    So far, there is nothing from Cryptic acknowledging this issue. Instead, what we have been recieving are news and content updates. Which, aren't useful to those of us that can't even log in. Best guess, hopefully they completely remove the patch that created all these issues on the next patch day. Then again, they haven't fixed any known issues for quite some time now.

    So, honestly, no idea.

    Don't bother with Steam, it makes it even more unpatchable.

    Just got kicked again. Tried to log back in got a 'timeout connecting to account server' from the in client log in screen 3 times (about 2 minutes to get the timeout message) Dropped to desktop, and now I get the blank/black launcher with "Loading Please Wait..."

    Again, interesting NOTHING ELSE on the internet has connection issues for me.

    Wishful thinking, but it'd be nice if Cryptic would do something to make up for all the problems, as well as fixing the issue.

    Crossin' my fingers that you guys get a fix. <3


    EDIT: It's now 6:23am EST... been getting a lot of SNR's in the last 3 hours. Now going on 125 seconds and counting.

    Also, launcher just patched a 3GB file. Anyone know what it was?

    Anyone else getting tired of this...support told me to cycle my router, they also told me it's my network, if I have no network how am I posting on the forum's complaining about server issues.

    Launcher = Minimal
    Character Screen = Good
    Loading Screen = Bad

    http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=424963484

    Gets to 93% every time then starts to timeout, it's now downloading a 3GB file...hope it's a fix this ****s getting old really fast.

    The servers that they have can't handle the load of players they're trying to accommodate...if they had more then one server this might not be an issue.

    Been getting a ton of "server not responding" while switching zones tonight. No problems with my ISP. A lot of disconnections, too. Login server seems to have issues when switching characters, too.


    Now 3 disconnections in the last 20 minutes.


    TRIBBLE it... not spending more money on STO til they address and fix the growing server issues.

    what the heck is the 6867mb patch I have , that only tries to patch after I log out?


    The entire last week, I've had;
    wait to check for patch,
    wait to login
    wait to go to character screen
    wait to load first character picture
    wait to change to one I want
    wait for picture
    try to enter game

    even odds I get login timout2 and start it again

    So, I'm not usually one to complain (cos I usually cause my own problems), but last night after logging out, the launcher did it's pre-patch as advertised.

    Loaded it up an hour ago to try and get in game to DOFF, do my dailies and such, but *poof* launcher lets me click "Engage" and......it's like Sulu in Star Trek 2009....no warp speed...
