This evening, I tried to log in the game and I couldnt get past the selecting server screen. I logged in with my name, but when tried to enter defiant, union or any server after 30 seconds more or less the message: "Cant connect to DBserver" appeared in the screen and i was back at the logging screen.

Has this happened to anyone this evening? do you know if there is something I can do?

Your having a bad connection. It's probably server lag. Try again. If the problem is still there, it's a problem on your side.

Constantly. I just reset my ADSL and wait 3 minutes before trying again.

Another possible solution is to reboot your PC - that helps me when I get that problem.

It seems he is still somewhat wise ; Bull Throttle: Shadowe was unwise in this instance...; Rock_Powerfist: in this instance Shadowe is wise.; Techbot_Alpha: Shadowe is very wise *nods*; Zortel: *Quotable line about Shadowe being wise goes here.*

Well I have been trying to get to the damn server for the last three days now (Monday was the first time), and the problem is very persistent. It's annoying and frustrating I can connect to ANY other game but CoX.
Resetting pc does nothing.

Even removing/adding the executables to the firewall didn't help.

Also the accounts I used for the knowledge database no longer exist. I had to use my email address instead to ticket this problem; which means I cannot get to 'my stuff' because neither ID's I tried exists anymore *sigh*

If it continues like this I might as well unsubscribe. No point in subscribing if you can't access servers.
