I think so, I cannot even get the launcher to connect. It says I have no internet, so this post is a figment of our imagination I think..
Took me 8 or 9 attempts, eventually worked. Weird thing was 2 of the errors told me incorrect user/password even though that info is all saved in the launcher, and I didn't change it. Then when I finally got logged in it told me 2 failed login attempts on my account.
It has been down for me for like an hour. Atm the Launchpad can't connect at all acting as though I have no working internet. I don't see that much noise about this though, almost like it's localized.
I have been trying for about an hour as well. I wish we got an xp bonus or something when we can't use the service.
I have almost given up on posting in the forums about problems with the game. It seems like if it isn't during normal day time hours nothing gets done. Either they do not man a night shift or if they do man one, the one person on does not have the time or the ability to fix anything.. From now on, when there is a problem at night, I will just stop trying and wait until daytime for the GMs and hope they noticed and fixed things then. Why spend hours at night frustrated with the lack of response to any problems....
It also took me a bunch of attempts to login to my forum account here, so maybe that's why there isn't much forum noise about it.
I remember having a issue like this before. I just keep double clicking and opening new windows till one loads. It just worked again After about an hour of opening one launcher and then closing and starting over
