Server Down

Are the servers still down? I've checked the Status Page and it says the servers are up. Tried turning off my firewall and I'm getting the same "the game client was unable to connect to the login server" message.

I was looking at that status page and unless there is another one, it is dated for June. Though the announcement part is updated. But I would give it the full two hours and then check if you can't get in.

They're back up, and that's great and all, but let's try this one more time just in case, for the cheap seats:

The server status page is bugged. It has been for a while. There's a reason the date shows June.
This gets mentioned multiple times on these boards every Monday and Friday, and any other time routine maintenance or publishes occur, in all the threads just like this one about why the servers are down. Multiple times. Every single time. And it's still bugged when emergency maintenance goes down, just like tonight. It's a guide, not an actual indicator. And lately, it's not even a very good guide.

In addition:
There was a note posted on the updater in big bold yellow letters about emergency maintenance related to server instability issues caused by today's patch.
You literally (and when I use the word "literally," I use it literally) couldn't have started the game without having the note show up on your screen.


FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.
