I get this msg on launcher, servers are up, was playing normaly since yesterday night, anyone else having this problem or its just me?
to make it short - Prosibean -Prosiben account can be made to play PS2. If ure from EU and creating acc via thier site you gonna end up with Prosieben. Steam i belive connects with SOE acc. I belive PS2 is the only game with actually two login options - SOE/Steam one and Prosiben - EU/DE operator. And whats best - these two are not compatible in the way you think they are. And still both connecting to same game servers. If you looking for anwser how to make easy things complicated - especially for enduser - ask soe/pro7 they are masters in this...
Deleted default folder in Planetside2 install folder ->launcher etc. Logged using wrong acc name - get error - logged with correct one - im in game atm. Or maybe they just fixed it
I have both accounts, I post on this forums with SOE account and login in Planetside 2 with prosieben account. Both accounts have the same name though.
actually, it seems to have solved itself... i didn't delete anything, and was able to login.... probably some problem with the login server, maybe not releted to prosieban... i was asking, 'couse usually is a prosieban problem more than an SOE one...
Problem NOT solved. This is a recurring problem that comes and goes at its own choosing. Deleting default folder does nothing. edit: Tired of regularity of this nonsense. Trying to log in for half an hour now. Canceling my membership if this isn't fixed in the next ten minutes.
The reason you are getting this is because the login server or proxy server 64.37.171.24 is actually located in the US, reaching loss of 50% and pings as high as 1000 and 250-500 avarage. The laucher doesnt even connect to any of the EU servers during loging in. So next time you have this problem try to use http://winmtr.net/ and ping the server. The laucher has no time tolarance that it takes longer to connect to the US. Executable: LaunchPad.exe Service: Launch pad connecting to SOE Region: California City: San Diego ISP: Sony Online Entertainment Llc 64.37.171.24* Here is a replicated example, with the login server blocked.
That's all well and good but it only tells us what the problem is, not how to resolve the problem. I mean no disrespect but I think I speak for most people when I say I really couldn't give a Monkey's Uncle what the problem is, I simply want to log in and play. So how do we log in and play?
Ive noticed that if I spam Play and close the error I eventually can connect pretty quickly. But you need to be auto logged in/remembered otherwise its hard to spam login where you have to enter the credentials every time. When you hit play the remembered stored credentials get sent for a authentication, its same as login the only difference is you dont have to type anything. Its stupid but its the best you can do right now.
This is madnes... I dont have patiance to type my login 1000x because i wanna play. I havent this problem until yesterday. I hope Sony solve this problem.
