Appears to be your laptop. I was able to login.

On the old server you guys did a great job emulating the original version. I can definitely live with a buggy new version for a while till you get it sorted. All the devs are amazing that they can keep this awesome 20 year old game going. I wish I had the skills to help. but sadly my coding days are past.

I am thankful that the team is still trying to restore the game and hope they can get it running again. It does say a lot about their commitment that they are even trying all these years after Sunset. I know it is frustrating that it has been down so long but it is free to play so they they are doing it as a hobby for their love of the game not because it is their job. I would like to express my gratitude to those taking the time out of their lives when they can to keep it going. Again, thank you.

Thanks for all the work you are putting in. Its frustrating that the game is down but spending the time to do it right is best.

Down

Server down

With Kyp's DNS updates late yesterday all is well, no more dreaded offline for me. Modifying the host file will work in the short run but there are several severs involved and if the IP addresses of any change you'll have problems again till they are updated.

Worked

Flusdns didn't help me either. Server still shows offline here too.

I have same problem. Tried to login about 3 hours ago. Server has shown Offline all day. Tried rebooting router, flushdns on PC. No joy does seem like could be dns issue. Am on Verizon Fios in case it helps. Tried from 2 PC's and enb notifier red all day. Also can't post on forum with Firefox or IE. don't know if its related but I posted this from an iPad with safari.

Was starting. Offline status again so looks like crash again. Starting

Same thing happens to me about 1 in 100 times too. When changing zones I get stuck on the galaxy map and have to kill the client and restart. Usually it is while gateing. A few times its been at the station but usually that seems to be when the server goes offline or just before it is offline.

Here we run into the prolem that even in Live no one actually knew the formula that the server used to compute quality, other than dev. Generally we don't know this type of information with certainty in games. Builders had theories formulated after much trial and error. And most 200% builders kept their methods secret to keep the credits flowing. All games have sinks. Not knowing creates a time and credit sink for builders that otherwise wouldn't be there.

Guess I'm in the minority but I like it better now. It should be really difficult to get 200% items. This makes them more prized and will be better long term for the economy. Other reasons to build? Some people really love getting that next print that they are missing. Or seeing 200% on the terminal when its rare. And PM items even if not 200% are better than 100% or not available and cheaper. You either like building or not. And to be sustainable the devs can't just cater to the old ENB players who want everything to be easy. In the long run they will need to attract new players or the game will die. And actually up to a certain difficulty the more challenging things are the longer people play MMORPG's. imo Of course opinions differ.

Got to the stage where Daiki-ya tells you to search Zweihander. Found SAM but he won't talk to me. Checked mission log. Mission missing. This is on 2 toons that should be on this stage Vain and Lysis. Did I miss something? Do I need to talk to someone else after Daiki-ya to get the mission back in my log or is it a bug that made it disappear?
