Yer right, Tengage - I just fired up N7launch and now it's saying only 67 online; looks like the char/sel/serv is down as you said - if one is already online that person is FINE, but GETTING online now requires going 'over a broken bridge'. And then the 'EA.com is not responding' is just a leftover in the client from when the ChSelSrv was in ea.com, the software is correct in that it's trying to connect to N7's char srv. Oh, well. Time for a little mah jong while I wait...

If there's 80-odd people online (like I saw), it doesn't sound like a bug in the updates/patches that ends up pointing to EA.com instead of Net-7.org (like the error message seems to imply) If it was a error in one of the patches that directed the client back to ol' EA.com (or rather stopped REdirecting the client Net-7.org), then wouldn't EVERYONE have the glitch and NO ONE be able to get on? (and just checked again - 71 ppl) This is fascinating and frustrating in equal measures - so much for a relaxing day off 'mining for fish' on an Explorer toon... But yeah, STOLI - you're not alone

My first hint was my avatar didn't take the turn at his nav point...then I noticed nothing was responding. Y'know, it really does take a LOT of deliberate effort to shut down that client, doesn't it? I wonder where he'll be parked when things come back up...

Worse yet; I signed up with enb-emulator ages ago; rediscovered all my passwords when I had to reformat/reinstall and came over to see 'alpha testing'. Downloaded the client (a couple of times - thanks crappy ISP), got things started out and actually played for a couple of hours yesterday. Logged out with the "Server shutting down in 4 min" ingame notice. ...now I'm thoroughly addicted and you've taken it away from meeeeee!
