Lost connection during first hyperspace jump. Now crash-to-desktop every time I hit Play on the launcher.

The servers couldn't handle the idea of simulating 400 billion systems, it waved the white flag and ran away.

Guess FD didn't pass the first stress test... I can't even log in... lets hope for a quick fix... unlike Blizzard who haven't been able to fix WoW's Expansion for over a week...

Argh...

Took a mission (which was a mistake) and then saw a blue ship symbol on the system map. Now I landed at that station... could not connect to server...

Load Failed. Unable to retireve Commander data from teh server...etc.

Argh! let me play!

Nice to see that I'm not the only one whose very first action in gamma was an epic fail!

I've also taken mistakenly a mission, I don't know even what, I remember only anything about 7 hours timeout, then server crash.

I'd rather have too many servers and not need them than too few servers and need them.

Said no developer ever in the entire history of game devlopment.......

KS backers are in too, overpopulated space, craaaaaash !

Yeah I was kinda expecting that, so I went into my Private Group instead of open play - Didn't save me from the server crash though.

We hurt the server, MEDIC

Hope we all don't get fined/bounties for not completing cargo missions and having stolen cargo in our holds...... eek

I've gotten in 3 times, get a dc after a few mins. Servers are getting hammered.
Hope the launch event is using a separate system.

Good testing so this doens't happen on the 16th, but it probably will.

Yep, its not possible to play atm. I can sometimes get in but i cant buy from BB (cant reach server). I'll hang back for a couple hours. FD is on the case.
