After a day of full patching; dissapointment already. The game won't launch for me.
I click play. The following window pops up. MortalOnline.exe - Entery Point Not Found
Seems there's website and forums are messed up to...
Is there a fix?
you may have to reinistall from scratch, I know my brother had to because he was having issues launching the game as well. I don't think their forums are down, only flooded by people.
Aye, a re-install might be needed. As long as you didn't set the launcher to delete the patches after they're used, you won't have to download em again anyway.
Copy all your patches to another location, uninstall the game, reinstall the game, then paste patches back in, run client and let it install all the patches
I know it sounds long, but will take less then an hour if you copy and repaste the patches.
Yeah the website isn't working for me either I keep getting database errors or FF can't find their server. Anyone else having problems with the website?
You guys whining about the game and site not working, it's launch day you know ? Did you seriously expect to be able to play at all ? I dont get why peoples need to buy a game on launch day, problems are going to happen, game is going to crash, site is gonna be overloaded. Dont tell me you expect to be able to play problem free on launch day, especially from a game that's been performing so horribly during the beta. Sorry but if this seems blunt but it's the truth. Dont buy a game on lauch day and expect it to run flawlessly.

Yes and no.
No, do not expect it to run flawlessly - because experience with the vast majority of games shows this not to be the case.
Yes, because it should not be this way.
And as an aside, after all the crap talked about the game here for how long now - people actually bought it?
Curious...
I miss the MMORPG genre. Will a developer ever make one again?

Yeah, I was troubled by that until I discovered most of the hate was coming from 5 people who just posted a helluva lot.
Was that really called for? Poll after poll on this forum and the main one consistently showed that the vast majority of people felt poorly towards the game. Just a short time ago there was a poll on the official forums that showed something like 2% of testers thought the game was ready for release.
Now, SV may have come up with the magic patch at launch.. I can't say as I can't play, but please don't try to claim only "5" people didn't like the game.
As I said elsewhere.. if they really did fix the game so that "hundreds" of people can be on screen without lagging to hell.. they might have found something. That would make real sieging actually possible and would take the genre to the next level.

funkmasta did not say that only 5 people hated the game, just that 5 people accounted for the bulk of the negative posts.
He inferred that the perception on the boards was slanted from reality by 5 people posting. I pointed to the variety of polls which showed the negative opinion of the game was proportional to the posts on the forum.
At this point though, it doesn'treally matter as the game has launched.. all the matters is the retention rate on July 9th.

Come on, you ask me to be fair: Are you REALLY implying that poll's results are valid?
And read through that whole thread; you will see some familiar names repeatedly. [edit: while I know you're familiar with that thread, I'd like to urge people to scroll through the page and try to find the end of the first post, let alone the poll. It's easy to scroll through and think OP is actually multiple posts.]
And I did not say 5 people don't like the game; it's a niche game, it's not for everyone. All I'm saying is that 5 people spit most the venom, then say "Look at all this hate, the game MUST suck"

Their forums work for me

From scratch, it's going to take days again.
Aye, a re-install might be needed. As long as you didn't set the launcher to delete the patches after they're used, you won't have to download em again anyway.
I didn't set anything, how do I reisntall, uninstall then reinstall? what directories are these patchs in?
I had the same problem - Fix is relatively easy.
Copy all your patches to another location, uninstall the game, reinstall the game, then paste patches back in, run client and let it install all the patches
I know it sounds long, but will take less then an hour if you copy and repaste the patches.
yup, just uninstall then re-install. I'd keep the patcher (whatever file you downloaded from the site) since MO's site is shaky atm.
The patch exes are in [WhateverFolder] / Star Vault / Mortal Online / mortalonline
Patcher start/icon must have been uninstall aswell... bloody hell I want a refund.
Shit I uninstall without re-copping the patches!!! dam win7 couldnt find the directories anywhere....
Damn!!
It would uninstall all my patch files?
Yeah the website isn't working for me either I keep getting database errors or FF can't find their server. Anyone else having problems with the website?
I've already called my credit card company for a refund....
your loss, I think you gave up far too easily.

LOL at you.
Have some patients man. Just re download whilst you play something else.
You have asked for a refund already? WTF?
Fraud -- website isn't working and game doesn't work.
banks give CC to anybody in these days i see, , its their risk.
Web site's back up. I've played the game for about 3 hours today and more yesterday, it works well.
Fraud is you going to your CC company for a refund because things don't go right immediately.

Actually momodig is closer to fraud's definition than you.
Going to the CC company for a chargeback (Not a refund. Refunds are issued by merchants.) is just a bad move.
I'd first suggest obtaining a refund from SV. If they refuse then work with your CC Company.
Yes and no.
No, do not expect it to run flawlessly - because experience with the vast majority of games shows this not to be the case.
Yes, because it should not be this way.

Explorer: 87%, Killer: 67%, Achiever: 27%, Socializer: 20%
They announced a patch and a website redo early this week on the message board...

@OP
Did you have a previous build on your computer (e.g. from beta)? At the end of last week they recommended people delete the old copy and reinstall.

you mean this poll: http://www.mmorpg.com/discussion2.cfm/thread/279830/POLL-10-days-and-counting-Do-you-think-the-game-will-survive.html The one where the OP goes on for literally PAGES, listing every single bug, fault, and misttep throughout the history of the beta, and THEN asks the question?
