I was makeing a pyrimid(ya dont ask just know it consisted of over 300 of the mossy blocks large style at the time it happened). CoH crashes no error message, no type here with what you where doing so we can diagnose this box, Nuthin just crash to desktop everything else runs fine but CoH will not connect. Any Ideas as to what i did and what i can do in order to fix this?

You mean the updater won't connect? You can bypass the updater with the command C:\Program Files\City of Heroes\cityofheroes.exe -project coh (C:\Program Files (x86)\City of Heroes\cityofheroes.exe -project coh on 64bit windows, use the Run dialog, accessible by pressing Win+R).

It's probably just a temporary network issue.


If this persists, you could try a few things, such as restarting your computer, reseting your router, and checking your firewall's settings.

Last night at 10:30ish, Freedom server barfed at me and wouldn't let me back on.

Dunno if that helps this discussion.

Had the same thing happen last night. although I wasn't making a pyrimid, and I sent in a ticket (silly me) and they had me do a Game Advisor report which I was like... "ok!?!"
EVEN though, I had told them I could get on the test server, they figured out, it can't be on their end... it's like me going to a mechanic and telling them my car will not startup and them telling me me "did you check the washer fluid?" I did try the -project coh switch but still got connecting # for about 5 hours. I tried logging on this morning and it got on...
so pretty much, the best I can expect for them will be "Ooops"


It's better to save the Mystery, than surrender to the secret...

Ever since the last update my vid display tends to crash and then take the game with it. I am at the point now where I may just stop playing for a few months and come back after GR launches and hope for the best.

Please post a CoH Helper log. Your video card's drivers are most likely simply out of date.

See this is what happened to me, only i used the tag at the end to get back on....Funny thing is i havent restarted my comp or my router and my internet never went out(i work nights and was off the night it happened so i had plenty of time to serf the fourms) at about 4am this mornin i launched CoHUpdater.exe and without so much as even a pause it launched CoH no problem. So i wonder if thier was some error assosiatred with the server last night that woulda caused this issue and all that was needed was a reset of thier hardware since even freedom is dead at 5-6am i doubt anyone woulda noticed a quick reset to anything.
