Can't login again!!!!

[Shaleth]

I just froze up on the game about 10 mins ago, and cannot log back into Crickhollow. I tried Gladden and could get in :/ Seems whatever was the problem over the weekend is baaaaaack!!!!! :/ It says: Searching for logon server, attempt #/20. I am in Ohio and use At&t UVerse. Pleeeeeease help!!!!!!

[Deyjarl]

Yup its back again.

[Shouriel]

Yup, I also had the disconnect / loading screen hang problem pop up on Arkenstone.

***SIGH***

Needham, we have a problem: someone forgot to feed the squirrels again.

[Ellis]

Yep. Here it goes again, same timeout symptoms. Ah well.

[Deyjarl]

Same symptoms. Only happening on certain characters (mostly my max level ones I play more often). Login, get to character select, select character, hangs at the loading screen until connection time out message appears.

[Poppyetta]

Same with me...chat server disconnected while playing on Crickhollow and while I'm still able to log back into game for the moment...I'm unable to connect to chat servers again....I suspect if I try to relog again I will be locked out if it follows what happened on Saturday


(twenty minutes and a crash after an attempt to walk through a door later...connection times out on loading screen and lvl 85 toons are locked out (crashing after character selection screen)

I'm a sad Poppy..no more OD Raid for me tonight

Connecting to patch server....33% failed

Server connection timed out...

Same as on the weekend for me too, never even see the screen to choose a server

I got stuck at "Installing Pre-Reqs" and nothing happens.
How long will it take this time?

Was running around in the 21st Hall when my character was no longer unable to move (he could turn and I was able to continue chatting with my party members), and I decided to log out to see if the issue cleared up. Now I appear to be affected by the "Loading Bar Issue" where I select my character and the subsequent screen just sits at a blank loading bar that never progresses, but simply ends in a connection timeout. My party members say I show as logged in when I select my character, but then it shows I go linkdead and my character still sits visible in the 21st Hall for the last hour

Same bs as last weekend. I applaud you turbine on a job well done once again.

I was stuck on that too but then I X'd out and reloaded and now I'm connected.

[Polymachos]

Maiar (German) - Login into the server works, but the loading time of my level 31 warden tends to be infinite. Unfortunately, the timeout button doesn't remove the game from memory; I have to kill it with the Task Manager.

Edit: A second attempt took quite long, and switching to another character also takes its time, but I can get in.


Greetings, Polymachos

[Deyjarl]

The problem seemed to correct itself, I got back in for about 20 minutes, then the problem started up again after that once I hit a loading screen.

Obviously you have not read this thread or just choose to ignore what's been said.

I am stuck at "Installing Pre-Reqs" again!

I had this same issue a few days ago and was offline for 2 days... Then I logged on, it installed some stuff for 10-15mins and I've been able to play normally for 3 daysish. Now I'm getting the exact same error.

My sub is up for renewal on the 16th. If I'm offline for another couple days again without recomp- I am seriously considering dropping lotro and moving on to another game.

I've already renewed my ip, powercycled both internet and cpu, the 1st time I had this issue I did an uninstall/reinstall of the game, and have checked my antivirus programs to make sure they aren't interfering. Is there anything else I can do to help clear this up?

Thank you

Same all over again this is a joke. So far it seems they can't get thru a single festival anymore. There is no accuse to have the same problem twice. Anyone can have a problem once but at that point professional Tech should be able to fix this in moments. I can understand it taking time to find the problem the first time but it would seem the fix should just be a repeat of the last fix. So what's the hold up get this game back up before you loose the last few people that still play this train wreck or a game they call LOTRO. Maybe its time to replace the IT admin team/ Faulty hardware before there is no one left to play.
