For about the past week, every time I've gone through a new character creation, when I hit enter world/enter tutorial (I've tried both ways multiple times), the game crashes and I get a "disconnected from DBserver message" and then I can't log back in on that account for a few.

So far I've manually added NCSoft and City of Heroes to my allowed list on my firewall. I also did the repair function on the NCSoft launcher. I am a noob free player (dunno if that matters) and I can play my already created characters just fine.

Another thing that might be causing problems, is I made a couple of free accounts so I could test out a variety of toons before settling on one...could this be an issue?

Any ideas/help would be greatly appreciated.

^thanks, I'll go post there.

K, so I tried skipping the tutorial...it crashed and said "lost connection to db server"...so...yeah...

Oh, I didn't even think of not doing the tutorial...I'll try that first.

So for some unknown (obviously) reason, for the past week or so when I finish creating a character and go to enter the tutorial, the game crashes and dc's. Is this happening to anyone else? Any ideas what might be causing it? Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
