Same here. I've been seeing the 'Connecting to the account server' and 'connection to the account server timed out' messages for a few minutes now.
Funny how, every time they perform 'stability improvements', the server seems to be less stable. It's bad enough that there weren't any bugfixes (Dyson battlezone crashes, Borg remodulator trait, emergency weapon cycle starship trait are a couple of much needed bug fixes that come to mind) today... but it would be acceptable if the stability maintenance at least made a difference.
There was a networking device that was getting a lot of pkt errors with the sudden spike of traffic. We don't suspect a DDOS. It should be stabilized, and the team will continue to monitor it.
Before someone just has to jump in and say 'it's your ISP, it's your computer' I've logged back in to Risa to see very few instances scattered with very few people in each one of them, while only 4 minutes earlier there were the usual amount of instances many filled with 50 in each. Also entire fleet roster and almost all in friends list also went offline, some unable to rejoin.
Honestly anyone really thought the server stability patch would improve things. History tells us otherwise.
Players guide to Cryptic's technical jargon
* Server Stability patch = Introduction of Lag/Rubberbanding/SNR and random disconnections.
* Bug fixes = Introduce more bugs to replace what may or may not have been fixed.
* Skill and Power rebalances = Nerfed said powers
* Bug Reports = Echo! echo!
* New content = rushed, bugged and broken gameplay
The only 2 peeps that seem to be honest, approachable, upfront and care are Ms. Trendy and Mr Tacofangs.
I just saw about 20 of my friends disconnect, and then was dropped from server.
"He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."

I am very lucky. I never suffer crashes. But maybe this time it is because i dont have time for crashes.. just disconnects every 5 minutes.. lol
.... and this game is so bronken...

It is, since a couple of days ago. But that has nothing to do with the INstability issues we are suffering right now. At least i think so.
