    I cant connect to the server. Im using steam and freebie. after launching the game the launcher takes a long time to appear, and when it finally shows up (ca 30 secs) i see the launcher in that circular loading animtion. after some seconds the launcher turns all black and gets stuck.

    if i open the task manager and kill the awesomiumpocess.exe (or whatever it is called) i can see the launcher again but with the following message:

    LaunchPad was unable to connect. Please check the network connection or try again later. If the problem persists, please visit http://www.soe.com/help for assistance.
    (3-404)

    the problem persisted, thus here i am,,,

    It was running fine until it crashed once in game. after that i wasnt able to connect, even after repairing or doing complete reinstal.


    any clues?

    thanks

    Easy fix. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DC Universe Online and delete the LauncherPad-User.ini file then restart the launcher worked for me.
