None of the workarounds work. And even if you get into the game the account server appears to be down.
They're working on it but everyone trying to connect all the time probably isn't helping anything. Will post an update if I hear that it's working again.

Yep, seems like nobody's actually playing yet - only thing to do is wait it out.
Champions Online thread - Waffuru - 08-17-2009
Working for me now.

The patcher is still stopping and needing to be reopened constantly, but for most people it's downloading a hell of a lot faster, so it might have been fixed.
Edit: Waff beat me to it

It keeps saying the server is down. Am I just not doing it right.

still not working for me. Eh, I'm going to bed.

Grrr...it keeps losing server connection and then crapping out, and not wanting to re-open the launcher

this game on some bullshit

If anyone was expecting anything other than exactly what happened today, you're pretty much wrong.
EDIT: Or have never played an MMO.
Champions Online thread - Kole T. Merr - 08-18-2009
so i finally got it patched, and now can't connect to the account server.
Champions Online thread - Milk Bubble - 08-18-2009
I believe they're doing maintenance, or so I read on the forums.
Champions Online thread - Kaden - 08-18-2009
There was just an announcement in-game about it. The login server is down for maintenance, but people who were already logged in can still play.
Didn't say how long it would be down.
Champions Online thread - Waffuru - 08-18-2009
Yeah, they had 40,000 concurrent connections. That's DDoS level of activity. They probably had to prove to their service provided that they actually needed more servers hence the stress testing.
However, there will probably not be 40k people trying to connect at the same time again.

I know how this goes, I'm just especially miffed that they forced you to subscribe to Fileplanet to get the game in the first place. This could pretty much not work on my computer at all, and I've payed 7 dollars for that.
Champions Online thread - Kaden - 08-18-2009
So... somehow, logging out last night broke my client. I have to download the new one from Fileplanet, which is taking a couple hours. A little sad, but oh well.

You don't have to subscribe to Fileplanet to get it. The download is free. o_O

Got it working this morning. Made an Archery character. Pretty cool so far; I just hit lvl 10.
Champions Online thread - Rem-13 - 08-18-2009
Played this for a bit. I can confirm that this is indeed an MMORPG.
I will not be pursuing it any further.

I didn't find that. =[
The site itself led me to Fileplanet, which made me subscribe. FTL

This is all that happens:

I'm not getting any error messages at all, it just gets here and stops. I'm assuming the "server is down", which obviously isnt the case, because thats what it says in the upper right hand corner.
Is anybody else getting this or what
