I applied the patch for issue 17 this morning and am now unable to connect to live servers. Anyone else having this issue?

We are down until noon eastern time for the I17 publish. The Ocho posted on the announcements board about the downtime.

Yeah. It's almost like they haven't finished the update on the server side or something.

Very curious...

Actually it's the usual Issue day schedule. They push the patch Live, then do back end work on the servers to make sure nothing broke. They probably also bring the servers up but closed to us so they can see how everything looks. Issues are definitely more work than a regular patch.

Your sarcasm meter is broken.

For future reference:
The Server Status page will tell you if the servers are currently up or down. The game usually tells you to check it if you are unsuccessful logging in.

They have to tear out the old renders and screw in the new Ultra Mode renders and then clean and polish.

I'm still having connection problems. My computer worked perfectly fine with the game prior to Issue 17. When I17 went into open beta, I had connection problems, being unable to stay connected to the mapserver. If I was lucky, the intervals between these connection problems was in the minutes range. At it's worst, and normal, it was near constant, making the game unplayable. I thought maybe it was just a test server issue, since I could go onto live and things would work fine again, but now that Issue 17 is live, I'm having the same problems with the live servers.

This computer is new, just got it at Christmas, and now this game is unplayable.
