    I honestly don't know. There is a problem going on that they're working on and they think they know what it is, but I dunno how soon there will be a fix. Lemme just go find that thread... look at this thread.

    If it worked earlier today try using the everquest2.exe program directly to bypass the launcher. And follow the existing threads on the problem to keep abreast of the updates.

    Any updates from anyone out there?
    This morning I have just tried again to log in... so far, it looked good, I clicked the launch button and waited for the ever so lovely message, but it didn't come. I got excited. Then while waiting for the next screen to complete I got the lovely error: eq2 everquest II has detected an unrecoverable error and must shutdown

    It crashed. So I restarted and went to verify files. No problem. Launch............... crickets........... crash again.

    After reading almost everything I could find (and all the theories in the world about what the problem is), I found one where the person said to do Full Download...

    I did..

    And now, I am back to the socket error

    I saw an update at the top of the forum that said it was impacting only some servers, but none of them were AB and I still cannot get in.

    not for nothing, when this started two days ago, DBG was still kind enough to charge me my quarterly payment for the service, so I want to thank them for making sure at least one part of the system is working correctly :)

    Can you give us a full downloaded client or something else where we can download the game beside the launcher?

    Unfortunately no, one of the issues is that it's affect all our titles across all studios. That's millions of files being downloaded by potentially hundreds of thousands if not millions of players.

    I wonder why the launchpad is still trying to connect to station.sony.com / lvs-gt-els03:'station.sony.com and 3 other addresses just to patch and launch a game. Surely that is obsolete and not necesary at all and only slows down the launching/patching progress?
