Same here got to the game, did the dailies (Most not all). Then went to do some on the fleet's Colony World and got stuck in loading screen. It said "Patching 3: (something here) 0 bytes". I had to Ctrl+Alt+Del to get out of it. Then boom this same thing you all are seeing... After about 12 or 13 tries it went over to saying "Connecting..."
EDIT: The window just popped up and a pop up started saying "Connection was idle for too long" then it closed the client launcher down
EDIT: Tried again, this popped up along with the idle for too long error...

whatever the have done is making things worse i thnk
Good morning! Sorry I'm late to the party, folks, but I was up late dealing with all of this as well. And a girl has gotta get her rest sometime. 🤷♀️ Yes, the devs are deploying a fix this morning via an alternate method to get this out faster, since last night's fix has been rolling out too slowly. For those looking for "official" word on things, there are posts and a discussion in General Discussion as well as GNN. As for calls of compensation, the Events are being extended due to this downtime. There has been no other word of anything else. We'll keep you informed as new information comes. We know that this is frustrating for many of you, but please, continue to be patient and civil. Thank you!

Last nights fix wasnt really a fix, some of the players already diagnosed the Correct files needed for the game to run by Casualsab, another posted on reddit the update log showing the wrong timestamps on files it tried to download along with posts in this thread about the number of files changing on verifys and updates. 120k, files, 180k files ppl get with updates both wrong as it should be over 200k files i think. 230407 files i think stated on reddit.

to therefore keep everything uniform, merge this thread with it and close this thread.
Thanks, but no. This is a bug report. The other is a discussion thread. We'll keep them separate for those reasons.
And since this is a bug report, if you're not providing useful information that could help in solving the issue and are just complaining, then you're not really helping. I would suggest that you take those complaints to the discussion thread, but keep it civil, please. Thank you.

My launcher updated and this now consistently happening when I attempt to start the game... As soon as it tries to patch the game, I see "Error 4. Attempted view is invalid" pop up. It tries to restart but quickly crashes say the server has been idle too long... In the middle of an event REALLY!!!! would be nice if the "Players" that cant play cause someone doesn't understand programing code and do their job correctly got some serious compensation for this...

Murphy's laws:
1- Murphy’s Law tells us that anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
2- And anything that does go wrong will get progressively worse.
3- And if you survive the first two laws it’s time to panic.

Hey gang - don't want to send too many "we have no update" updates, but just to keep you informed, the team is still working hard on trying to pinpoint the best way to fix this issue, which is affecting all Cryptic games right now. Hopefully some good news today.

it wasn't either but unfair moderation and censorship
Instead, I get a small white-box, pop-up, saying
"trying to update the launcher, please be patient"
May I suggest directing players to the newly created https://account.arcgames.com/en/forums/startrekonline/#/discussion/1270202/april-2023-outage-discussion-thread

Yes agreed one sees ones point
I have the same after five patches, including two that were around 10 GB each.
