Engineering! It's happening again!

Hi Captains,

I just checked in with the team and they are running some tests with our external routing vendor to try and identify where the cause of yesterday's issues lies. If you're having receiving an error, please try again in a few minutes while they complete their tests.

Cheers,

Brandon =/\=

The DNS bug from last night is back...

www.startrekonline.com doesn't work but sto.perfectworld.com does.

Launcher loads but won't get past the patch button.

Pinging launcher.startrekonline.com results in 100% packet loss.

Pinging startrekonline.com results in 75% packet loss.

Tracert times out after 14 hops at 38.111.40.114, 13th hop is cogentco at 66.28.4.42

Problem had gone away when I logged in at 1630 Hrs GMT and logged out 1800 hrs GMT.

Just went to log in now and.................................... its not working

C'mon, this is getting silly. Couldn't play at all yesterday... was able to log in today, played briefly, got booted, now the same auto launcher problem. What's going on?

Same here. NY NY

Will do! Thanks!

Manage to get on for less than an hour, a foundry mission hanged so had to quit out, went to log back in and bam total BS again, why do I pay gold for this.

For us gold users who haven't been able to access the game reliably for two days what are the devs going to offer us in compensation? If nothing why are we paying for this game.....
