Might be worth giving tomorrow a miss 
Plus...when it goes back up this evening, there will be another queue - seems my lifetime sub is going to pay off

Well, I bought in so now I can enjoy the downtime with everyone else
It patched pretty quickly (after downloading from a beta mirror) and I got to create a character, but once I tried to beam across to the ship in the start tutorial I got kicked.
Seems to be stuck on 'Connecting to the Login Server' now. At least I was in-game long enough to max the video settings.
I'll apply for the fleet when I have a proper character, but I doubt I'll play much to start with, especially with the chaos that the next couple of weeks could be on official launch.

I don't think the current hardware can cope with even just the americans alone tbh. These problems have been happening in the wee hours of the morning our time when most euros are asleep.
I'd love to know some ballpark figures for how many purchases/people online as the amount of PvP queues have quadrupled between beta ending and head start. Thats with them being waay over capacity already in beta.

Maintenance because of the crash I think. The server was deteriorating for about 20 minutes - actually it has been getting worse all afternoon. Seems to go down the same times everyday.

I hope they don't plan 'brief' 2 hour maintenance windows regularly around 9pm
No, patch time is always 11am - 1pm or later if more needs fixing. These are server load issues which hopefully they resolve soon.

i have had no problems at all today,i took the day off so i thought i would bang in a good few hours 9am this morning to be exact
I just dont understand why they dont spread the load somewhat by having more than one server shard. They could make say...5 servers..and name them something like Earth, Vulcan, Cardassia, Kronos, Ferenginar etc
To be honest, unless they have several thousand (or tens of) lifetime and annual subscribers, it makes sense to not scale up too quickly.
Otherwise, you end up with a lot of costly potentially redundant hardware.
Of course, they could at least do their best to keep the primetime of each zone (america/europe/asia) clear from maintenance so as to keep the fans happy.
Besides, it'll only be a week before the hardcore gamers are complaining of there being no end-game

Yup - same here and will be doing the same tomorrow. This is becoming a trend, so I am adapting - no, I am not a borg captain either

Bit of a problem though if you work or go to school during the day

True, I am teaching all of next week
An interesting thought from someone on the forums -
God I hope so. If not, Cryptic have seriously screwed up.
