I still have a faded out start button.  Did anything get fixed?

    I still have my start button faded out so i cant start?  Do others have this?

    Try rebooting all the way out.  I get that every once in a while on the PS3.  A complete restart of the application gets you right in there.
  • bomjbomj Member UncommonPosts: 184
    It automatically kicks me out after a minute or so and shuts down the application.

    And the patcher window too?  Because that's part of it.  I'm by no means a programmer but the grayed start button seemed to appear around the same time as issues seeing JP/NA servers.  If that isn't it... I can't help much more than that.  I'm sorry.  Do you have another PC you could try loading from to narrow that down as a possibility?  I don't think it likely that it's you.  It's PROBABLY the server.

    It's an embarrassment of riches.   The game is too popular.  They increase the concurrent server cap with the latest patch from 5000 to 7500.

     

    I think there are 10000 people trying to log in at the same time.   If they get their shit together... this game is going places.  I already know that 80% of my Free Company (50+ people) are paying the 6 month sub option.

    Every now and then, yeah.  So what i do is at a command prompt type ipconfig /flushdns and it seems to work most of the time.  The Start button then becomes available.

    The start button has never been accessible after I log in I have made 5 attempts /day for a week and no change. 

     

    I tried the ipconfig thing and no luck.

    yeah, Start button is faded from time to time.  Sometimes it brightens immediately, sometimes I just restart the game.  It's never been a big problem for me, my wife or anyone else we play with.

    Things seemed better this morning when I logged in, but we'll see how much new characters affect things.  Going from 5,000 to 7,500 doesnt' seem like a big jump - but they also changed the way duty finder works, which I believe was a bigger problem.

    well i hope they get it together. However if true raising server pop to 8500 still doesnt say why they have not cranked up digital dls. My guess it will be another week or so at least before they get it running so all who want to play actually can.

    Did they even beta test this game ? If so they could have fooled me!

    5 attempts is not very many, when compared to everyone else. Persistence pays off!

    I have never seen a change in that button change and I get a message cant access login servers and kicked out a minute after logging in.

    what do you mean cranked up the digital dls? 

  • jonas555jonas555 Member Posts: 19
    digital dls=downloading the didigtal version of the game which they still have on hold
  • bomjbomj Member UncommonPosts: 184
    I purchased a digital copy so is that on hold or they halted additional sales?
  • bomjbomj Member UncommonPosts: 184

    I don't know how they did phase one and two, but three was strictly a weekend affair, there was never what you could call stress tests done.
